{{Main|War of the Roses (radio show)}}
The Rise Guys' War of the Roses segment is a public service to the P1 audience. This segment was based on a 1996 bit from Andy Savage's radio program on "The Edge" based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. They have a volunteer who believes that his or her partner is cheating and asks the Rise Guys to investigate. The Rise Guys call the suspected cheater as the "Rise and Shine Florist" offering a free, no strings attached gift of a dozen roses to anyone in the area. After the first name and message of the recipient is received they confront the suspected cheater on air.

==== 7.17.07 - The Episode of Assumed Death ====
A now infamous episode of War of the Roses resulted in a sad and shocking revelation for listener Chris. Chris called in about his girlfriend and him having trouble and the Rise Guys called to find out what was going on. When they called Chris' girlfriend's cell phone, her boss answered, and at first Chris was livid, thinking she was probably cheating on him with her boss. The boss, stunned at the moment, lied to Chris that his girlfriend was killed in a side-impact collision. It was later revealed that the girlfriend was playing a practical joke on the boyfriend.<ref>[http://www.everyzing.com/viewMedia.jsp?q=karen&start=0&num=10&col=en-all-public-ep&filter=1&dedupe=1&expand=true&match=query,channel&e=9705983&il=en&sname=&scol=pod&index=4&seek=29.329 Interview with the girlfriend from 7/17/07 episode]</ref>
