DeepSummary
The episode begins with Alexis Fernandez introducing a 'Head Noise' segment where she reads out crazy lies that listeners' exes told them. The lies range from denying infidelity to making outrageous excuses for inappropriate behavior. Fernandez expresses amusement at the absurdity of some of the lies.
Fernandez then moves on to answering questions from listeners. The first question is from a 24-year-old who enjoys being single but is curious about being in a relationship. However, she finds that every man she becomes interested in already has another woman in the picture, making her feel like a second choice. Fernandez advises her to look for signs of genuine interest and not to compete for someone's attention.
The second question is about a strained relationship between the listener and her father. The father has exhibited hot-and-cold behavior, often shutting down the listener's feelings. Recently, he snubbed her on her 21st birthday, and they have barely spoken since. Fernandez suggests managing expectations of the father's behavior and preserving the listener's mental health.

In the last Head Noise episode you guys LOVED the lies exes told so I’m bringing I back for an even more cooked part 2!
And then I get into Head Noise where I answer your questions.
- I'm 24, forever single, thriving and upset with men. ‘ve been single my whole life and honestly thrive. But I’m curious about what its’ like in a partnership and am open to a boyfriend but very rarely do I get genuinely excited by a guy. When I do I REALLY do. But every guy I’ve ever like has had another girl in their lives they choose over me. I feel like a second choice or someone’s back up. One guy literally said that I was his second choice once a few year ago lol. Am I doing something wrong? And How can I make it hurt less when I don’t feel chosen?
- My dad and I have a good relationship when he’s in a good space, but when he’s in a bad place he can be a real arsehole Recently he and I got in a fight over text, and at the next family hang out I went to say hello to him and he gave me the most awkward side hug and barely talked to me. What do I do – I want a relationship with my dad but his behaviour is really childish and hurtful.
