Once a week we bring it out, so the "Truth Jar" was in the studio and the first question: have you ever done this for your partner? This morning, that the first question when to Carla Rea on The Mike & Carla Morning Show.

Now given that both Carla and Mike O'Brian share quite a bit on the show. This question actually made Carla turn red! Not much does, but as she described it, she began to blush.

To give you an idea of what this is all about, the "truth jar" is filled with questions from listeners. And once a week we dive in a pull out a couple of those questions. All The M&C Morning Show has to do is answer them truthfully!

Truth Jar: Have You Done This For Your Partner

Now according to a recent article put out by Mindful Health Solutions, honesty can be very helpful for your overall well being! In reading the article, being honest can build trust in a relationship, if done the correct way.

This is one of the reasons why we brought in the jar in the first place! After asking Carla the question, we wanted to know how many other people have done the same thing?

One young lady said that she had just done it the other night. Although she wasn't ashamed to share, she did say that her boyfriend turned into like this little kid! Not the response she was hoping for!

On the other hand, Mike's question was pale in comparison. All the listener wanted to know is if Mike had ever pulled off a "dine and dash"! That's it! Carla was like "REALLY?" I bare my soul and all Mike has to confess is if he did a "dine and dash?"

Well, either way, you have to listen to the segment for a couple of reasons. One, to find out Carla's question and answer. And two, did Mike come clean and admit that at one time he bailed on a dinner tab?
