So you're doing something else too, like maybe scrolling home listings on redfin.

Saving places you like without thinking you'll get them.

Because that's what house hunting has become.

But redfin isn't built for endless browsing.

It's built to help you find and own a home.

Redfin agents close twice as many deals as other agents.

Which means when you find a place you love, you've got a real shot at getting it.

Oh, could this vintage store be any cuter?

Right?

And the best part?

They accept discover.

Accept discover?

In a little place like this?

Don't think so, Jennifer.

Oh yeah, huh.

Discovers accepted where I like to shop.

Come on, baby.

Get with the times.

Right.

So we shouldn't get the parachute pants?

These are making a comeback.

I think.

We're getting married.

Eventually.

Eventually.

We're going to do it.

It's happening.

It's happening.

And that is why Mr. B.

Braden, my fiance is on the episode this week.

Thanks for joining, babe.

Oh, thanks.

Thanks for having me.

Really because I needed a guest this week.

I'll take second place like a silver medal.

You're always my fill in when I knew it.

So we are going to get into a whole bunch of questions that everybody asked.

First, shout out to Nancy and her husband.

They're celebrating this year, 26 years together.

Where'd it go, Nancy?

And her husband.

Husby.

Husby.

Husby.

I want to be your husband.

You're about to be my husband at some point.

Let's go.

Well, you shout out all the people who asked our questions for us.

I feel like Momma number five.

I'm about to say all the names.

Break it down, baby.

Sarah Kelsey, Kylie, Amanda, Leah, my homie, James, Jen, Michelle, Emily, Claire, Jacqueline,

Lexus, Dana, Haley, Jessica, Cassie, Chris, Alyssa, and Tracy.

Thank you, guys.

If we've ever doubted, if I have a female audience, you can't know.

There's proof, except for my homie, James.

Shout out, James.

Shout out to all the ladies and women up in here.

I'm happy you guys are here.

All right.

It's time to get into this.

Let's do it.

Let's go.

Remy's ready.

Naturally, there's a whole bunch of wedding questions.

Are you ready to answer some wedding questions?

Absolutely.

Do you want to marry me or something?

Yes.

100%.

Yes.

Immediately.

Yes.

Yesterday.

I'm ready now.

We could really surprise the listeners.

Just do it on the podcast.

What do you want in the wedding versus what he wants in the wedding?

I guess I always like, I just wanted to be around people that I love in a beautiful place,

saying I do to you.

Like, those are always my, I'm a very flowy person.

This isn't frustrating for you at all, is it?

Flowey.

I'm just, it's not that I don't care, but I'm just, I find the good and everything.

So, all the options are good to me as long as you're there, as long as family's there.

As long as we're in a beautiful place and we have beautiful photos and beautiful videography,

like beautiful things to look back on.

So, I haven't had a huge must-have list.

We've talked Remy and Hazel being in the wedding.

That's driven more about our wedding than anything.

It was also the thing that I brought up first on our first date.

Not very first thing, but it was one of the things I brought up on my first date with him was just

the day that I get married.

Remy and Hazel are such a huge part of my life.

It will be a necessity that they're there.

Especially Remy.

Remy has been with me through gosh so many highs and lows in my life.

My entire 20s have been with her and her to not be on my wedding day would be devastating.

And Hazel came in at the last minute and stole my heart and she's also played a huge role in my life.

So, definitely a big part of that.

That's just where we differ a little bit in personality is where I just like to be organized

and have all the answers and he's really good about going with the flow and letting life happen to him,

which I think everybody aspires to be like, but I am not very good at that.

I try to be.

I'm not as good at it as I wish I was.

But I think in this more so, I'm more opinionated than you are of just what I want,

what I feel like looks good, what I feel like will make me happy.

And you very much just want what will make me happy and the three things that you just listed that will make you happy,

which we are doing.

And it's also I think we're learning how to communicate through wedding planning

because we're realizing that that difference makes a difference.

And so last night we had a big conversation about you were saying, this is what I need from you.

And I'm saying I'm trying to give that to you and it's not that I don't care.

So it's like there's communication we're learning this is the biggest thing that we've done together.

So we're learning and we're flowing and it's going to be perfect.

Yeah, because that's moving in together.

It wasn't really it was such a natural smooth transition that that didn't feel like a big deal.

This feels like more we're learning about communication styles in terms of planning something.

There's a lot of moving parts.

Yeah, there's a lot more moving parts to anything really that has ever happened in a form of my life in this way.

I don't know that I've ever done anything to the scale.

I felt like planning a birthday party or planning a trip was one thing but now this is a completely different ballgame.

This is a trip and a party and people and venue and everything all wrapped in one.

Yeah, and you have to have deadlines and schedules and certain dates.

Things have to be in and everybody has a different preference for things.

It's a wild experience.

Kansas or Tennessee wedding.

Neither.

Partially the second half we are going to throw a party here in Nashville with all our friends and family.

Once we get back but we are doing a allotment, make sure micro wedding with our immediate family and that will not be in either one of those places.

But it will be this year.

It will be this year.

And it will be on the east coast and that is all we're saying for now.

Secrets.

Secrets.

It's not really just a little bit of privacy just a smidge in there but that's where we're at right now.

So it's a combination of all of the things that we wanted originally and it's allowing us to have Remy and Hazel there and to have a big celebration weekend which is what we originally wanted in a beautiful place.

And then also getting to celebrate with all of our friends and family after the big ceremony.

So it's a combination of all of them.

That's part of why wedding planning is a little bit just all over the place for me because we're paving our own path.

It's not exactly anything I've seen.

I've seen different variations of what we're doing with other people but this is just a particular path we're taking and then I haven't quite seen at least if it has happened I haven't seen it on social media or anything which you've done your research.

I've done a lot of social media scrolling for the wedding planning and I think I'm sure somebody has probably done something a lot similar but it's taking different things that people have done and putting them all together to work perfectly for.

Accomplishing all the things that we really want to do and want to make happen and still hopefully not spend an arm and a leg which we're really trying to do but holy crap that is.

Nearly impossible unless you just go straight to the courthouse and that's all you do if it starts with wedding it ends with $10,000 literally you say wedding minutes all the way up there and try so.

So we are learning a lot about what is his strategy in supporting me through the highs and lows of wedding planning.

Yeah like I was just saying I think it's communication it's us figuring out because we haven't done this like we have to figure out how you feel most supported.

I have to feel supported and even though I'm easy going you're really pulling out like I need a little bit more from you because this is important to me that we're doing what you want which I love that you're carrying about what I want like that's wonderful.

What's really important to me that you feel like this wedding is also a reflection of you and not just reflection of me I want it to be a reflection of both of us in our love and our relationship and our life together.

I don't just want it to be we get to either one of the situations that we're doing and you're like oh that's really cool I didn't know we were doing that or this is here I want you to be.

Just aware at least of everything and have your stamp of approval because I think that's important and needed not my wedding it's our wedding.

What are each of you looking forward to most about the wedding without giving too much away.

I know I'm most excited that we found a way to make it so Remy and Hazel are going to be there with us because that really was such an important part for me and I'm sure there's people out there who think I'm absolutely insane for that.

Not me. I know not you honey it's just as important to you that it happens and they're just such a huge part of my life and doing such a huge thing in my life without them would feel very incomplete for me and making it happen was just so important.

So I think that's what I'm looking forward to most is just honestly like Remy it makes me emotional to think about Remy's just been there through so many ebbs and flows of my life and she's had so many people walk in her life and leave and now she gets to be a part of somebody coming and staying forever is the goal and she gets to be there and that's why I said you haven't forever.

Dad when we got engaged and so I think her getting to be there is going to be so special and then naturally the moment where we both say I do and kiss the bride and it's official.

I cannot wait for that and we were just talking I can't wait to do the the drop kiss. What's it called?

Oh like the little like dip kiss the dip kiss yeah watching videos on how to accurately do it.

Don't put the flowers in front of his face. Yeah I'm excited for the I do's in the dip kiss and all that magic that we're going to feel but I'm also really excited for both our families to come together and spend time and just to have the full weekend where we're going to be hanging out and just

I know I love my family I love your family and there's been a little bit of overlap but not like to full overlap and I think that'll be really exciting and we'll have the babies with us and beautiful location.

I think both of our cups are going to be very full after our wedding weekend which is going to be special.

One thing we're most excited about being married I don't know that a lot will really change per se.

I'm excited just to I've been excited. Where's my ring? Did I take my ring off? Please keep this room here please.

Why did I when did I take that off? Did you take it off to do your nails? I don't think so I wouldn't have. What the heck?

Do you want me to go grab? No I mean yeah because we're doing a podcast it's about us being together and I don't have my engagement ring on because I'm an insane person apparently.

You know it's really funny about this is when I first got my retainer I would sleep and pop it out in the middle of the night and I'd find it down by my feet because I'm you know me I know it's disgusting but I'm such a hard sleeper that I take things off when I'm sleepy and I don't realize it and that's what just happened is I took off this ring while I was napping because I like I sleep with my hand on my face like this and it was like poking my eyeball and I was like oh okay.

I don't like that took it off not thinking anything of it until this exact moment and now we're engaged again. Congratulations to us. You know how hard of a sleeper I am. You are rock solid.

Several things could happen and I wouldn't know about it. You and Remy out. Route together. Out. Anyways. Do we answer all that question? No we didn't. What are we most excited about being married?

Not a lot is going to change once we moved in together. Life has just been smooth sailing. You know I think a lot will change either more than anything just excited to keep showing off my ring because I love having it even if I forget it sometimes and potentially taking your last name which I haven't decided on. Yeah that's a big decision I know and you have to make that one.

I love your last name I really want to have it. But where I'm conflicted is because I come from a family of all women and I'm just.

My dad is so important to me and I have so much love and respect for him and I really want to continue his name on and that's been a name for me for 32 years of my life.

All identity that I created and established a life with and just getting rid of it feels weird. Feels like I'm just a racing a whole part of my life even though I'm not but it feels that way and so I want to find a way to honor him and our family name.

Well also still taking yours and away that fits for both of us so there's part of me that things maybe I'll take away because I have two middle names I'll take away one and put my last name in my middle name and then take your last name but I don't know I don't know or just like.

Officially between us I take your last name or officially I keep it and then publicly I have your last name I don't know I don't know but it feels weird.

In a good way like I feel school to have the options and I just really want to find a way to honor my dad my family name in the life that I've lived for so long.

And of course I want you to take my last name but at the end of the day I completely respect everything that you have with your family and especially with your dad and so I 100% support you if you don't want to take my last name but of course I want yeah of course I want that.

You want me to be Morgan Everley I do love that name it's so pretty it's so perfect we'll see what I end up deciding I have it I have not made any decisions as he's seen I've been just all over the board in a lot of ways not for lack of wanting things but just I want a lot of different things

and trying to find a way to blend and marry things together but intended in the way that feels right and important to me and I just want to do that in the best way possible so I don't take any decision on making in this entire process lightly.

And I think that's important you'll find clarity in it it'll happen I know.

Because I got you you always help me through it so I'll figure it out ideal place to go for your honeymoon.

That we have planned out not planned out we have the idea right we have what we really want to make happen if we can make it happen let's make it happen.

And it's to go to South Africa. It is my whole dream to go on an African safari and when I told Braden about it he's like oh my gosh yes.

I think I said nah it's in bed m'ya mo mo di si mo ba I'm just singing along to a wonderful song it is it helped raise me it did raise you but yes we would love to go to South Africa and have our lives.

And I really want to go on a safari sea animals and their natural habitat and then potentially go to Cape Town which is the beach and maybe see some penguins down there.

Yes.

Go to wineries and just a whole lot.

All the things.

Yeah so that's good.

Watch 10 billion tiktoks on how to not have to get 37 shots to go to Africa.

That's why we don't know if it will end up happening or not because that seems insane we got a lot of logistics to figure out if we're going to make our ideal place happen.

And if not there's so many beautiful places in the world we will find one and him and I love adventuring and relaxing and enjoying everything together so we'll find the perfect spot but the ideal place if it can all work out is to go to South Africa.

What is your favorite thing about each other?

Oh gosh how much time do we have.

How long is this podcast?

Already long because I forgot my ring and it was a whole disaster.

A disaster.

Yes.

I love the way that you love me.

You make me feel so special every single day.

You make me feel like a matter.

You feel like you make me feel like my words are important.

I can communicate with you.

Like I've never felt so good about myself.

And it like you're bringing that out in me.

And that in turn makes me a better partner for you.

I just love the way you love me.

I love the way you love me.

Now it is.

I'm more against me.

Remix baby.

I love that.

I love that you feel loved and seen from me because as a partner that's the only goal that should exist is those two things is to feel loved and feel seen from the person who you love the most in your life.

And it's funny that both of our things are how we make each other feel because for me one of my favorite things about you is your ability to see the good and everything.

You live so much in the present moment and you don't have a lot of time to care about the really negative side of things or feel stressed or anxiety because you're so connected to the hearing now.

And you're really good about that.

And I love how that in turn makes me get to that same place because that's been a goal of mine for so many years.

And it's hard to accomplish.

It's hard to be in that but you just have this very optimistic not jaded at all.

View of the world and people and I love that so much.

It's just one of my favorite qualities about who you are as a human being.

And in turn it makes me a better person and better person means better partner.

Partner forever.

Partners forever.

Health insurance should make getting care easier but sometimes it can feel like the opposite.

That's why United Healthcare is committed to putting care at the heart of health insurance with empathy, transparency and real human connection.

I mean doesn't care feel different when it's personal when you can tell that the person on the other end of the phone, the screen and the service genuinely cares.

United Healthcare is working to make that happen every day.

They're also helping people make healthcare decisions with confidence giving them the information that they need to better understand their benefits, costs and claims.

Because United Healthcare knows when you understand that stuff, you can better get the care you and your family need.

United Healthcare is also working to make care more accessible.

They're doing it by helping connect people with more top doctors, clinics, specialists and such, right in their own communities.

It makes getting care easier and feels way more personal.

You know, care can show up in a lot of ways and everyone at United Healthcare is committed to bringing it every day.

Okay, now that we've talked about all the things that we love about each other

and all the wedding exciting things.

Because...

That's what I'm talking about.

That's what I'm talking about.

That's what I'm talking about.

And all the wedding exciting things.

Because that was a lot of questions that we received.

Let's get into some other fun stuff.

When did you know each other were the one?

Was the one?

Were the one?

I don't know all of that sounds weird, but we were each other's one.

When where why?

When where why how?

It sounds silly, but I knew the moment I met you.

Like, I think we've told the story a few times.

I accepted a job on Friday.

I met you on Saturday.

We talked on the phone on Sunday.

And I declined that job moving back down to Florida,

driving to your house for our first date on Monday.

It's not just like a...

It was love at first sight.

Like, I knew...

I knew something was different the moment I met you.

And my whole life changed.

And I was just trying to catch up with it.

And it was like, it's crazy to decline a job you just accepted on Friday.

On your way to a first date on Monday.

And I bought you sunflowers to bring to our first date.

And there was a yellow Jeep in front of me that had a big sunflower on the back tire.

And I was just like, this is exactly where I should be.

And I see that yellow Jeep driving around every once in a while.

And I wonder how much they know that they changed our lives forever.

I just knew it.

Do you feel like you could put into words what that knowing feeling feels like?

That first night that we spent time together was just like fun.

But we're in a very fun environment.

The next day on the phone, you said you had 15 minutes.

Because you were really busy.

Do we have to point out that I was a busy girl?

So you said you had 15 minutes.

And I was like, I just want to talk to you.

And I was just laying on my couch in my apartment.

And I called you.

And from the moment you picked up the phone, it just felt easy.

And I had gone on dates.

I was like trying to put myself out there.

And I would close myself off and open myself back up.

And from the moment you answered the phone, everything felt easy.

And I truly felt like I already knew you.

And we like, we talked about everything on that first phone call.

We talked about kids and we talked about religion.

And we talked about how we wanted to live our life.

And we talked about everything that you want to know about the other person

so you don't waste any time.

And everything was right on par with one another.

And it just felt easy.

It just felt it was like, this is what I've been waiting for.

So that's what it felt like for me.

It was relief and clarity, like instantly.

It's a good way to describe that.

And mine didn't come until later.

And not for lack of wanting to, I think, I had been so scared

because of past situations that I'd been in to really allow myself

the opportunity to get excited about someone.

You came along and I was like, yeah, this is different.

However he is, however, this is feeling like something in me is signaling,

hey, you can feel safe, you can feel calm.

This is the right situation that you've been waiting for.

And I fought it, tooth and nail for a hot minute.

It's not wanting to believe that good could happen to me.

And I was really afraid of the other shoe dropping

because it was often a question I asked him, especially early in our relationship,

was this is too good to be true on waiting.

I'm waiting for the moment that something bad happens.

And he's like, nothing bad is going to happen.

This is what it's supposed to be.

And you were right.

That shoe hasn't dropped.

It's not going to drop.

There's a ring on my finger.

We're literally getting married.

And it wasn't until everything happened with Hazel

that I finally allowed myself to realize what I'd been fighting since we met.

I was like, I knew it was different.

I knew it was different from our very first date.

First meeting you in our conversation, everything felt really good.

I was like, okay, I'm getting excited, but I'm also scared to be excited.

So not too quickly.

And we went on our first date and everything felt like I had known you my entire life.

And we had, it was like we'd been dating for years that first date felt like.

We even took a picture on our first date that you would have thought we'd have been

a couple for several months at least.

And from that moment forward, we were inseparable.

So I felt it and I knew it.

My body knew what was happening, but my brain did not catch up until everything happened

with Hazel when Hazel got sick.

And I had to take her to the ER and be there with her overnight

and her get hospitalized for several days.

And the way that you showed up, not just for me, but for her, for Remy.

And it solidified everything that I had already felt.

I needed that final confirmation.

And that was the final confirmation of this is a person who says,

and does exactly what he says he's going to do.

And it was everything that I needed to like finally allow those last concrete walls to fall down.

And once I did, it was like the floodgates opened.

I don't know if you felt a shift at that moment in time,

but I think that was really the moment where I allowed myself.

I think I knew it way sooner than that.

But I don't think I allowed myself to feel it until that moment, until that all happened.

And trust in that moment, like true trust.

And that was, there wasn't a huge shift for me in that moment

because that's just who I always knew that you were going to eventually trust me.

And we were very open and you would tell me like,

this is great, but, and I'd be like one day,

one day you'll know that there isn't another shoe.

And this is who I am.

This is always going to be who I am.

And so in that moment, I was just being me showing up for my family.

That's what I was doing in that moment.

And I didn't feel like I was doing anything out of the ordinary.

We were sleeping on a little Jackknife sofa.

It was a twin bed.

Yeah.

We brought some pillows in a blanket.

That was Remy.

You're thinking of Remy.

Oh, that was Remy's.

Yes.

We still had to go to the same Yarva.

We still did lay on that couch.

But different, but yes, we then had it a month later with Remy.

And then again, like only further solidified what I was feeling.

Like I already had that moment.

And then when Remy happened, I knew you had my back.

And yeah, we were.

I knew what I genuinely could decide at that moment that I'm going to marry this guy.

But at my head, I definitely told my friends prior to that, you were different.

And I felt like this was going in that direction.

But in that experience was when I said, I'm going to marry this guy.

If he asked me one day.

See, and even in that, who's still coming back.

I know.

Even now, we're engaged.

And I'll say something about the future.

And you're like, well, if we even actually get married, what more could I do?

I have never made it incredibly easy on you.

Which is made it fun.

Lisa's into our next two questions.

How does he cope with your past trauma and concerns based on past relationships?

I think I always just went a pretty calm person.

So I had a calm demeanor when you first opened up about it.

And I'm not one to get super jealous about talking about X's.

And obviously your X's aren't like shining stars.

It helps your case.

But yeah, I was just open and willing to hear everything you wanted to tell me.

And whether I never tried to dig.

I never tried to even ask it was when it came up naturally of this is a trigger for me.

Because of this moment in my life.

Or I really value when you do this because this is my past experience.

So I was able to use them to my advantage to love you better.

Yeah, you were learning a lot of lessons just through the things that I had been through.

And understanding why I was the way that I was.

If you were very just open and learning to understand me and cope with the things that I had been dealing with.

And I knew going into our relationships once I felt different.

And once I was feeling that, oh, this is a really different relationship.

I knew from a lot of the therapy that I was in that it was going to take the right relationship to help me learn a lot of things.

And a lot of relationship patterns that I had just been accustomed to because of the things that I constantly experienced.

And you've helped me through so much of that so beautifully.

You've really walked through all of those moments with me and allowed me to heal from them individually as you mentioned as they come up and as they happen.

And there's still even moments where it comes up.

And it's not because of anything he has ever done to lead me in that direction.

If anybody who's ever experienced trauma knows something can trigger it even if it's been decades or just the right amount of a certain situation or certain uncertainty or a certain feeling within yourself.

And something can just click it on very quickly. And I'll still have moments of that.

I'm really bad at using humor with it.

No.

Oh, like every time I'm like, oh, so you don't love me anymore?

Like I'm doing it as a joke.

But there's a piece of me in there that's like, okay, maybe this is the time that's really going to be true.

And I'm using humor to deflect it because I was used to that actually happening and people leaving and people no longer being around.

And so I very much use humor a lot to get through it.

And he is really good about looking at me and saying, okay, is this you actually making a funny or is this something we need to talk about?

And there's been several of those times where I'm like, okay, that's probably something we should talk about.

And he recognizes it before I do because I just make a joke about it.

But I'm at least good about making the joke so that I allow him the space to help me heal it.

So I'll recognize that it's happening, but in the form of a joke.

And then he is the one who actually breaks it down to be like, that wasn't a joke.

That was how you feel about something that just came out.

And you've been really good about just seeing me and recognizing me and understanding when I am being silly funny and when I'm being funny to protect myself.

And you broke down those barriers through that and you're really good about it.

So take somebody having patience in the space and the willingness to walk through your hardest things with you.

And I think I've done that with you as well.

They're just different experiences and yours come through differently than mine.

You're really good about it hits you and you just feel it and you're like, oh, that's happening.

Whereas I again deflect to humor.

So different ways that we cope and how it comes out.

But I think we've both walked each other through a lot of past experiences that I don't know that either of us actually thought could happen.

I don't know that either of us believed that somebody could walk through that pain with us and come out the other side.

And we did.

Yeah.

One thing that I was open with you about at the beginning of our relationship was a common theme in my past relationships was just feeling unappreciated.

And I feel like I do.

I'm such a lover.

I'm such a giver.

So I think I mentioned it on our first date.

It was opening up the corridor for you.

We touched on that.

You were like, thank you so much.

And then you thanked me for dinner.

And I was like, just so you know, you just being appreciative means the world to me.

And we started off that that conversation was super early.

I think it was on our first date.

Yeah.

And you're really good about showing appreciation for the little things.

Because I do.

I put a lot of thought into the little things and you coming back and saying, that was really sweet.

Or I really appreciated when you did this.

And I'm not just looking for praise.

That's not what I'm looking for.

But you give me constant reassurance that what I'm doing matters.

And that makes you feel important in a relationship.

And it makes you feel like a good partner.

And so that's been something really great that you've done for me.

Look at us both.

Healing our past broken hearts through each other.

Her weird habit you had to get used to and vice versa.

I know there's something.

I'm like shocked.

Did it just jump out?

It's on the tip of my tongue.

Holes.

Oh my gosh.

You are always Pokemon butt.

Not just your butt though.

Just my nose.

I love every hole.

Mouth when you're young.

Literally yesterday told me that you were sad all day.

Because you didn't have any holes to put your finger.

Which just sounds awful.

It's not so much actual thing either.

I just I don't know what sensory problem I have.

I'm glad we're labeling your sensory problem.

Feels like it.

That's a natural fit.

I like sticking my finger in your ear up your nose and your mouth when you're young.

Yes, I like Pokemoner butt when you walk up the stairs or just really anytime.

You put your butt in front of me.

Sticking my hoodie strings up my nose.

Yeah, I definitely I had to get used to that.

I can't walk up the stairs in front of you.

That is the danger zone.

It's bad news.

I'm sorry.

It'll be like doing the dishes after dinner.

I like splash water everywhere.

I'm just such a goofy girl with you.

Really?

You are goofy.

And that's right after our first couple dates.

And you're like I'm letting her out.

And you are you're so goofy and you're so funny.

And it's just so funny because you can go from being so serious to just an absolute goof in no time.

I think you would like to say absolute minutes because you've definitely called me a minutes before.

Like two times.

You've called me a minutes before.

I ask you do you just want to be a minister right now?

I'm not calling you a menace.

It's a question.

It's phrased different.

Oh man.

I don't know.

I do have a lot of weird habits.

Oh, there's one that super annoys me recently.

Oh.

Have we talked about this?

Oh, yeah, you know about this.

It's the dishwasher.

Oh, I don't.

Okay.

He always never closes the dishwasher completely.

It's not that it like is open open.

But it's just open enough where it's not closed.

And every time I walk like why do you do this?

I don't even know that I'm doing it.

I think so.

I have a weird thing about I don't like things being wet.

Okay.

You do you want to speak about like sensory things?

Yeah.

You are definitely more of a sensory person actually.

Yeah.

I just have a sensory thing attached to holes.

Don't ask me why.

There you go.

And it's not sexual.

It's not.

I'm sure everyone.

It's not.

I'm sure.

You're not helping.

It's not.

You know, it's not.

I know.

It's not.

Oh, man.

Oh, man.

It's not.

You know, it's not.

I know.

It's not.

Oh, my gosh.

But I give you a hard time about it.

But yeah.

So I don't like towels being wet.

I don't like like my coffee pot in the morning.

Like I always have to make sure I dry that as much as possible.

So the dishwasher just like sitting in a box with like dishes wet.

They're supposed to be wet in there.

The get wet when you turn it on.

But they're supposed to be wet.

Anyways.

It's fine.

That's their environment in there.

So things grow.

And then you run a dishwasher and it gets clean.

Yeah.

Exactly.

But I don't know.

So I think moving on.

I think over time.

Like even when I was a kid, I feel like I didn't close the dishwasher all the way.

I didn't latch it shut each time.

It's like closed.

Like it looks like it's closed.

But it's just not closed all the way.

Yeah.

And it bugs you so bad.

And I'm trying to work on it.

I'm digging deep.

I'm trying to work on it.

But sometimes when I'm like, run around doing the dishes clean the kitchen and I just don't

close it and you come over and you're like, that's this.

But I'm like, I'm not a drill sergeant, but I am like, are we for real?

We've talked about this like eight times.

So I'll work on it.

I'll get better.

That is your weird quirk though.

It's funny.

Honestly, if it's something that you'd ever change, it will be completely fine.

And there will be a funny running joke that we forever have.

Yeah.

My dishwasher.

The dishwasher.

I'm surprised my coffee habits don't weird you out.

I have weird coffee habits.

The guys at work always give me a hard time.

For what?

Nothing about your coffee habits are weird to me.

I brew coffee in a French press.

Yeah.

And I drink half of the French press over ice.

I drink my coffee black over ice and I drink it out of a mason jar.

I take mason jars out of the house to work and I just have a mason jar of coffee.

Okay.

But then I put the other half of the French press in the fridge so that when I get up the

next morning, I already have cold coffee in the fridge and I pour that coffee out and

I brew a new pot and I drink the second half or I drink the first half of the second

pot of my brewed.

It's just weird.

And I catch a lot of crap from the guys at work.

So I just figured that would be weird if you don't drink coffee.

So I thought maybe French press in the fridge and I got to grind my coffee in a special

way.

No, nothing about it.

Maybe the fact that you sometimes leave little coffee drippings on the counter and don't

wipe them up.

I'm never done that.

I'm sorry.

I don't mean to.

I'm not very clean.

You are.

You are.

And again, these are like knit-figuring things.

You have so many great qualities.

I had to find things that are something wrong with you.

You're basically perfect.

So yeah, you do leave little coffee dripping sometimes.

That would be the only thing about coffee that would necessarily, but that doesn't even

really bother me.

Okay, noted.

Nothing about coffee.

Again, probably because I'm not a coffee fan, I just don't know or care what the actual

system is supposed to be like, but you might get judged for it now that you've said it

on the podcast.

Cold, black coffee.

Try it.

I support you in that.

So it's fine.

Thanks, babe.

Eczema is unpredictable, but you can flare less with ebglyce, a once-monthly treatment

from moderate to superior eczema.

After an initial four-month or longer dosing phase, about four and ten people taking ebglyce,

achieved itch relief and glare are almost glare skin at 16 weeks, and most of those people

Ebglyce, LibriKizumap, LBKZ, a 250-mg per 2-mL injection is a prescription medicine used

to treat adults and children 12 years of age and older who weigh at least 88 pounds or

40kg with moderate to severe eczema, also called atopic dermatitis that is not well controlled

with prescription therapies used on the skin, or topicals, or who cannot use topical therapies.

Ebglyce can be used with or without topical corticosteroids.

Don't use if you're allergic to ebglyce, allergic reactions can occur that can be severe.

I-problems can occur.

Before starting ebglyce, tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection.

This is Dr. Laurie Santos from A Happiness Lab.

As a happiness expert, I know that mindfulness isn't just about meditation.

It's also about being present with your choices.

And for me, present at meal time.

That's why I choose deets in Watson.

They're a family-owned and operated business, and they never cut corners.

However, I use their chicken sausage with no added hormones in my family recipes.

Deets in Watson have been hand-crafting meats and cheeses for over 85 years.

They know that good taste doesn't need a long list of ingredients.

They're totally transparent about what goes into their food and what doesn't.

And that's why their meats and cheeses taste so great.

They stick to what matters, using the fewest, highest quality ingredients to craft their

meats and cheeses.

Because that's how they've always done it.

Mmm...

One ice coffee?

99 cents please.

For real?

No way.

Mmm...

One ice coffee?

99 cents please.

For real?

No way.

Mmm...

What a deal.

Your new morning groove.

Ice coffee from McDonald's.

Any size for just 99 cents to 11 AM.

Pricing participation may vary, cannot be combined with any other offer.

But I'm a bum bum bum.

Do we have cute nicknames for each other?

I have one for you, but I don't think you have one for me.

I do call you Mr. B.

Still, you're still Mr. B in my phone.

And we call each other babe and my love.

Yeah, I don't, we don't really use our names ever.

Like even you said my name on the phone today and I was like.

I did.

Yeah, you were like, I'm going to wait.

You're looking at videographer and you're like, I'm just going to wait and send

this to Braden.

I was like, my government name.

I don't think I realized I used to your government name.

Sorry.

Yeah, we don't use official government names around here.

I would never call you Morgan.

I would call you Morgan.

If we were with friends, you're like, and Morgan said this, but at home,

it's babe, baby, sweetheart, my love, love of my life.

Hello, I'm in L, hello, ML.

I would never call you Morgan.

It's aggressive.

It is aggressive.

Thanks for home.

I like Morgan.

Everly just saying favorite meals and make together.

One, two, three.

Marry me chickpeas.

Yeah, okay.

Marry me chickpeas.

Ironic that we made that a whole bunch before we didn't get engaged.

That's funny because we made that video, which if you guys have not

watched the real on Marry me chickpeas, the whole recipe is there.

I literally eat it for dinner every single night.

Yeah, I try and every Sunday, I'll go through making a grocery list.

Be like, why should we make this week?

Cause he a little saint does my vegan gluten free eating with me.

And so we make a grocery list together.

And every week I try and mix it up.

I'm like, what are we going to have for dinner this week?

He's like, Marry me chickpeas.

I think he wants to inject it into his veins.

It's so freaking good.

It's such a guy thing to be able to eat the same meal over and over and over

and over again and never get tired of it.

I've ate the same lunch for three years now.

That is so every single day and every day at one or two o'clock,

depending on how busy I am, I'm eaten and I'm excited.

And I, we have to fluctuate our meal changes because of me

because if we do something two weeks in a row after that second week,

I'm over it.

I need a new meal and he'll look at me like you get tired of those.

I'm like, yes, cause I won't eat it.

I'll make it and I'll have it for one meal and then I'll stop eating it

cause I am tired of eating it.

We'll all finish my dinner and I'll look over at you and you've taken two bites.

And I'm like, I'm eating the rest of Marry me chickpeas.

Shoot.

Dang it.

Yeah, I wish I didn't have that, but I do.

I like variety a lot of my meals, but definitely Marry me chickpeas.

We also have a rhythm with it.

That and making breakfast and stuff every Sunday when we do meals and stuff

together, we prep and do everything together.

It's our day that we spend together in the kitchen and I love it

because we're getting to spend time together while also focused on making

our lives healthier and doing meals.

There's something really intimate about just making a bunch of meals

together and that's how we spend our Sundays most of the time.

And we do, it's creative too.

When we try new recipes and we work really well in the kitchen together,

we can jump back and forth whether one of us is feeding the girls and one

of us is cooking or one of us is doing dishes and one of us cooking

like we just work really well in the kitchen.

Sim, symbiotic relationship.

Is that a thing?

Symbiosis.

Symbiotic is a thing though too, right?

Symbiotic.

I don't know, man.

Symbolic.

It's a little bit like symbolic is a thing, but I feel like...

I'm just throwing out words now.

I was late.

I'm a brainless tired.

I don't know.

And we've been fasting for 24 hours.

We do. We fast once a week together.

That's another thing we do together every week and it's funny because I'm like

you don't have to do this with me and every week.

Never fails.

He does the fasting with me because I fast at least for 24 hours once a week

to reset my body, make it start eating its own bad cells, all that good stuff.

Shout out autophagy.

Yes.

Cara Clark taught me that.

If you want that episode, that was really cool.

We talked all about that.

So how do we handle fights or disagreements?

Any tips for conflict resolution?

We literally sit in each other's laps and hold hands and talk.

And I've never had that in a relationship and I love that we do that because

communication is just something that hasn't been a highlight of anything.

In a highlight of any relationship I've been in with me being the easygoing guy.

Communication just doesn't need to be at the forefront if you're cool with everything.

But you and I know each other well enough that we can sit down and just like we've

been talking about, we can sit down, hold hands.

And it's I know that you're upset right now.

And if you need to take a second to process everything, we need to talk about this.

And then we talk about it and we move on.

And that's one thing when I get upset, I go inward.

And I just shut down.

I know you know.

I figure up on it right away.

Yeah.

Thanks to the empath side of me.

I shut down and you're really good about let's fix this and move on.

And so it sounds silly to just say communication but thoughtful communication.

You're never just going to let me be mad at you.

And I'm not going to let you be mad at me.

Like I'm your best friend.

We're going to be married.

Let's figure this out.

Yeah.

At the end of the day we're on a team together.

The goal is us against the world.

The goal is us as a team working together.

It's not me against you.

And you said something there that I think is really important that I've noticed I think

really helps us is every time we talk about something we're touching each other.

Whether we're holding hands, sometimes I'll sit on top of you and be like, look at me.

They hit into me or we'll sit there and hold hands or we're right next to each other.

And we touch each other's leg.

Like something about that touch signifies, hey, we're on the same team.

But we do need to talk about this.

This is important to not let it fester, not let it form into a resentment.

Let's talk about it right now before it goes anywhere.

And I have a huge advocate, one of that of making sure you have some form of touch

when communication happens because to your point communication is so vulnerable.

And it makes us feel a lot of things.

And the only way to feel like you're connected in a moment that you're

unconnected is to physically connect yourselves.

And I think touch really matters.

And it's been a part of every conflict resolution we've had.

And also that is another point is we just don't let things sit for very long.

And I think it's easy to do that when life happens.

But anytime you and I have ever had a disagreement, it never turns into further than that because we don't let it.

We both feel the change.

Like one of us says, hey, this is how that made me feel.

And we sit with it for a moment.

And then whether it's a couple minutes later, an hour later, or within that same day,

we're addressing it again.

And I think there's certain times and moments where you might need more space than that.

I think that's absolutely valid and it completely depends on the disagreement.

But we've never had that so far.

Everything we've dealt with has been dealt with within 24 hours.

Because resentment is something I never want to allow inside of our relationship.

I think we've been really good about not allowing it.

I think we respect each other to a level where a, we're not going to disrespect each other.

But I'm definitely not a Yeller.

You've said in your past like with your parents and stuff, you'd like that was part of your childhood.

Your family just didn't yell.

So I will never raise my voice to you.

Like that's just not, there's nothing I could think of that would make me do that.

So it's like you have to have that level of respect.

And then when something's off, fix it.

Yeah, I do believe there's a whole lot of respect between us, which is why I'm going to marry the heck out of you.

Yes, that's so excited.

Oh my goodness, okay.

Have you listened to any of my past relationship stories or have you listened to any of them since we've been together?

Anything in that realm?

No, I never.

So the night that we met the next morning, I woke up and I did what any sane person would do.

And I Googled your name.

You came up with all these fancy pictures and you had told me you worked in radio but didn't say anything.

And I was like, oh gosh, she's a big deal.

A big deal last night, then after I had found you on Instagram and I saw that you had a giant following.

I immediately retracted and I was like, I don't want to let that cloud my vision of getting to know you.

And so I never scrolled on your Instagram.

I only saw like the first couple posts.

I never scrolled.

I never went back and like stalked or went back and watch YouTube videos or anything like that.

I only wanted to know what you wanted to tell me.

And I thought that was kind of a special at the very beginning.

I was like, oh my gosh, she's super famous.

And I was like, it must be nice for her for someone to just want to get to know her for her.

It was like my, I don't know why I thought that way.

But I right after we met that's because you have a good heart and you're a good person.

And you always have been outside of meeting me.

So that tracks.

I probably thought about it too much.

But I just made the decision that I wasn't going to.

I still haven't seen your Instagram other than what you've showed me.

Or, oh yeah, I made this real or oh, I went there and you showed me like I never only what you've shared with me.

And we've had some pretty emotional conversations sitting on the couch.

And so I know about everything, but I didn't go back and watch the media version of it.

I got the real raw version of it.

Yeah, and you were really great about that.

It was a game changer for me and so much of dating for me was that was just a part of my life.

And gosh, I remember when I was dating at one point, there was a guy who saw me on hinge.

And I think I told you this story.

I think we talked about this.

There was a guy who saw me on hinge and he matched with me.

And we messaged a little bit back and forth and talked about going on a date.

And then he was like, we should FaceTime first.

And I thought that was pretty normal.

You FaceTime or talk on the phone before.

And we ended up talking on the phone.

And he pretty blatantly within the first two or three minutes was just like, I know who you are.

And I don't really approve of my life being talked about on the radio.

And I was like, what a bold assumption to think I was going to talk about you in the first place.

Okay, we're going there.

And just let me have it of like how he felt.

And I was like, man, we haven't even met.

You think you know me.

You think you have this whole idea and scope of me.

But you didn't even give me a chance to be who I am.

And I think that's an irony in social media and just in the way of the world.

And he had already decided who I was.

And obviously we did not go on a date after that.

I towards the end of the very short phone call because I didn't want to continue being berated by a stranger.

I just was like, yeah, this isn't for me.

Thanks for I guess telling me how you felt.

And good luck with your life and ended the phone call.

And so to have somebody show up in the way that you did.

And just very much take a completely different and very empathetic approach

of just this person is also a human.

And I'd like to know her how she wants me to know her and letting me tell you all of my stories

instead of living them through social media was really cool for me.

And I think it made our connection all the more deeper because of it.

And you still haven't gone back and looked at a lot of things.

You know a lot of things.

But yeah, you haven't really gone back and troll.

You're like, something will pop up.

You're like, I haven't seen that.

And it's from three years ago.

I was like, bang, you really didn't do any stalking on my page.

It's nice because if I see a picture of you with bangs, I'm like, oh, that's a long time ago.

Like that.

That's my timeline.

And you love bangs more again.

Yeah, I love all Morgan.

I thought you're, I wish you around.

And I had bangs.

It would have been really supportive since there was a lot of haters of my bangs.

You don't like haters.

We're gonna do some rapid fire questions here at the end to end this all in.

So your thoughts on the cruise and the fur babies while Morgan was gone.

Did you have FOMO from the cruise or were you jealous?

Everything wrapped into that.

I was so happy that you were getting to experience it.

And I know being away from the girls was gonna be hard on you.

But I felt like I could be the solid foundation here so you could actually go have some fun.

You work really hard.

And so it was like, I was really excited to watch you have fun.

Of course, I wanted to be there.

But giving you the peace of mind of having the girls taken care of.

That was worth more than both of us going on the cruise.

We'll go on cruise.

We'll go on amazing vacations.

This one was just, it was one for you.

And I was really excited for you.

He really wants to go to Pittsburgh for the draft coming up.

And I was like, you should go.

Go do it and figure it out.

And I don't know if I can make that work, but I want you to go.

There's so much support between the two of us to do the things that we need to do.

And if we can make it work where we're both there, then we will absolutely do it.

And if we can't, then it's supporting each other and the things that we want to do that matters.

But don't get it twisted.

The second that I say I'm leaving for Pittsburgh, you're gonna be saying, oh, well, since you don't love me anymore.

It says the joke.

Those are my actual jokes.

Those are me actually joking.

And those are not related to trauma.

I just miss him a lot.

And you did the same thing when I was on the cruise.

You were like, I miss you.

And you love to make jokes and you're like, I guess you don't love me enough.

You didn't want me to come along.

Yeah, she didn't want me there.

That was the, because people were like, did you go on the cruise too?

No, she didn't want me there.

And I did.

Really one of the things we thought about too was this being the first time.

I didn't know how much I was gonna have to work.

Spoiler alert.

I did work a whole crap ton.

And I just didn't want him to take off from work for something that I didn't know.

Like I'd rather it be for a vacation for us and with us wanting to get married and have a honeymoon

and do all this in the next two years or whatever.

I just didn't want to waste a week if it wasn't actually gonna be us getting to spend a whole lot of time together.

And I was right in making that call.

So let's see what happens next year.

But you wouldn't call me until after midnight when you were done working.

And then you were usually up before me for work.

You got like 36 minutes of sleep every night.

I did.

And you would have been along for a lot of it.

You would have been with me.

But I still would have been working, which negates the fact that I want you to have a vacation with me

that we both get to enjoy and actually have vacation together.

Because that's special for us to connect.

Any national park or road trips planned for this year?

A wedding is planned for this year.

A wedding is planned for this year.

And there will be a road trip involved.

And maybe another hopefully at one point we can go on a vacation this year.

We'll see how everything lines up.

There's a lot of planning and things happening.

So we'll just see how it all plays out.

But we'd love to.

But we have a lot of exciting things also planned with the wedding and everything.

We need to go down and visit my mom and Florida.

Yeah.

We've been talking about that.

We need to go see her in Florida.

I do need to go to Pittsburgh because I want to visit Pittsburgh.

I've never been.

And we really want to do a glacier national park and bamf together for a full road trip.

So we'll see.

It's just harder to get over to the west coast than I would like because of the girly pops.

They can't ride with us in a road trip.

So that long anyway, Remy could.

Remy would pass out anywhere.

Hazel, not so much.

She likes to travel while traveling.

Literally.

What is your dream vacation together?

I think if we're not talking about honeymoon, we've talked a lot about glacier and bamf.

Like that would be incredible.

But we send reels.

Our travel section on Instagram is just growing by the day.

Like that Thailand one you sent me today.

I was like going to Thailand tomorrow.

We both want to do everything, see everything.

So I think our dream vacation is just making it all happen together through the course of our life together.

And it will be an important part.

And it leads into the.

You all want to have kids and that's where we are.

70 30 no.

I think that's last we checked in could have changed a little bit my.

My niece very much makes me want to I get baby fever when she's around.

But then I also love that I get a pastor back and not have any actual responsibilities.

I don't know.

There's moments where I'm like, oh my gosh, it would be so cool to have a kid because you would be such an incredible dad.

And it'd be fun to watch you be a dad.

But that alone to me is not enough reason to have a kid.

I don't know.

We go back and forth.

I think we lean more towards no at this moment in time if you asked both of us.

And yeah, I hope we we just want to travel a lot.

We want to rescue animals.

We want to follow our passions and we want to live a full life together and support all of our friends.

Who want to have kids and support their lives and at this moment in time.

And as our whole relationship has developed, I feel like that's been where we've both been at.

Anything else to that you want to add from when we met our conversation that we had.

On Sunday, that first Sunday, when we talked about kids, I said I couldn't even contemplate that because I had never been with someone who I could see myself having kids with.

And I could absolutely I could see myself having kids with you.

But would that enrich our lives?

You don't know.

Every mom is going to tell you every mom and dad is going to tell you the love you have for your children is something you can't understand.

Until it happens, but that's a big that's a commitment.

And I think there's some people out there that don't really think about that commitment.

And that's what makes bad parents.

And then you have wonderful people, which I think were wonderful people.

And we probably should have kids to raise babies the way that we live our life.

And so it's just this back and forth.

But if you're not 100% in, it should be 100% out.

Yeah.

You should want to be a parent.

Yeah.

That's what makes good parents.

And that's what we very much had.

The conversation around is both of us are just not at this moment in time 100% in.

And until we get to that point, or if we ever do get to that point, then that's a conversation to be had.

But for now, it's just not.

And we love being aunts enough.

Oh, that's so much fun for us.

And for now, that's good enough for us right now.

So we'll see.

We'll see what the future holds.

I don't think you ever say never to anything.

And life has plans in store for us to have a kid.

And that's what's going to happen.

And we'll be great at it.

But for now, we have for babies.

We got this for big.

We have our doctor.

We do.

Okay.

That's where we leave.

Unless you would like to share a thought on the Steelers new coach.

And who you want to be quarterback to end us.

Oh, you did tell me this one's slipped in.

I actually didn't know any of the questions.

So that's really fun.

So Mike McCarthy.

We'll see.

I don't know.

He's not a top tier coach, but not a bottom tier coach at all.

I think he will be good for the Steelers.

And this is my hot take.

Will Howard.

It is Will Howard's time.

He's the backup quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers now.

He's a national champ at Ohio State.

And we just need to give him a chance.

And he's going to be the next big thing.

Aaron Rogers, it was a fun little experiment.

I was patient with you.

Morgan was not as patient with you.

But it's Will Howard's time.

I feel like the Steelers have.

They have all kinds of draft capital.

And they did great and free agency.

So it's going to be a fun season.

Thank you, babe.

Coming on, sharing more of our love adventures, relationships, marriage adventures, and everything

in between.

I hope more people don't come on your podcast.

So I can be on your podcast.

Just be here forever.

Yeah.

Talk about random things with me.

I'm like the substitute teacher that all that everyone gets excited comes in.

Yeah, but you're my real teacher.

You're my forever teacher.

You're just the podcast substitute teacher.

Okay.

I'll take that.

Does that work?

Yeah.

Okay.

I love you too.

Can't wait to marry.

We're going to get married.

Do you ever wonder how far an EV can take you on one charge?

Well, most people drive about 40 miles a day, which means you can do all daily stuff, no problem.

Go to work, grab the kids at school, get the groceries, and still get the money.

You can go to work, go to work, go to work, go to work, go to work, go to work, go to work, go to work, go to work.

You can do all daily stuff, no problem. Go to work, grab the kids at school, get the groceries,

and still have enough charge to visit your in-laws in the next county.

But they don't need to know that.

And the best part, you won't have to buy gas at all.
