There is another option here. Just ask your wife what she thinks of it. Ask in a way that sounds like you overheard a conversation or you read something somewhere. She doesn't need to the minor details of where you heard/saw it.

Just say something like

You: Hey hun I heard the guys at work talking about something and I thought I would ask your opinion on it.
her: Yeah sure what is it?

You then tell her and see what she says.

This way you are using the 3rd person approach and it works well. Also this way you are getting feedback on something without causing any duress.
