Picture this: a chance encounter at a gas station sparks a love story, and 17 years of "cool beans, jeans" heralds a marriage filled with laughter. That's the kind of heartwarming and humorous rapport we're sharing on today's episode with our delightful guests, Lisa and Lexi, and their respective partners Paul and John. Prepare for a joyride through cheeky banter and intimate revelations, as we explore the quirky intricacies that make each relationship unique.

Join us as we laugh our way through games that uncover travel must-haves and dream vacations—the answers might just surprise you. Witness the playful competition as Lisa, Lexi, Paul, and John reveal how well they truly know each other, or in some cases, how hilariously off the mark they can be.

We wrap up with a dose of wisdom, discussing how weaving Jesus into the fabric of relationships can be the secret to a lasting partnership. From differentiating principles from preferences, to the power of prayer, our couples open up about keeping the sparks flying, no matter how many anniversaries you've celebrated. So come along for the ride with us, and let's celebrate the joy and the jest of love, life, and everything in between.

Speaker 2

Right. So I thought about this deep and hard Brandon Lake. So that way, since I'd be there almost every night and we'd have a campfire, I figured we could sing until we die. And what a great way to go out better than with Brandon Lake Okay.

Speaker 5

How are?

Speaker 1

Okay, john, yeah, yeah, what's up? Okay, you know that, like the point, is that really, honestly, what you would take? No, I did it for the laughs. Okay, all right, so you might want to do it for the game we're trying to win.

Speaker 2

You're trying to win.

Speaker 1

Yeah, lexi's getting competitive all of a sudden. Okay, all right. Next question guys, here we go. All right. So this is for the guys. So if your spouse or if the woman could spend a day in the life of someone else.

Speaker 2

Don't say Brandon Lake Lexi.

Speaker 1

Who would it be?

Speaker 3

The day in the life of someone else.

Speaker 1

Yes, who would your wife or your girlfriend be as somebody else for one day?

Speaker 5

Who would that person be? Oh my gosh, I don't even know.

Speaker 1

So all We'll start 30 seconds. The timer started. Lexi, did you write pretty? Are you already done? Okay, she's thinking. Okay, she's got the look of confusion. So who would Lisa or Lexi be as somebody else for one day? If they could be one person I know I try to go kind of crazy with these questions It'd be fun.

Speaker 4

Who would she?

Speaker 2

be, yeah, who would?

Speaker 1

she be? Yeah, who would she be just for one day, like who's her favorite person artist, I don't know. Oh man, it sounds like I'm gonna stall here for a little bit more time I don't really know.

Speaker 3

We have to get another 30 seconds on this that's a hard one, because I don't know like okay I have mine.

Speaker 5

You got yours okay, so did you write yours already. No, I think I have an idea, though.

Speaker 4

Okay so we'll start with, you guys. While you know who would she be, I have mine.

Speaker 1

That's tough. You got yours Okay, so did you write yours already.

Dream Vacations and Silly Arguments

Speaker 4

No, I think I have an idea, though. Okay, so we'll start with you guys while you're finishing up. Who would she?

Speaker 1

be? So who would Lexi be for a day? So we'll start with you, lexi, when you're ready. Who would you be? Who could you, if you could choose to be anybody for one day? Um?

Speaker 4

so I don't think john is gonna get this one, but I talk about her all the time okay and it's my favorite influencer. Her name is melina cc audi melina, melina, melina, yeah, okay, cool.

Speaker 1

What does she influence?

Speaker 4

um, she just posts a lot of christian content and she's super wise okay, and I just love everything about her okay cool, all cool.

Speaker 1

All right, John. Who do you think Lexi would be for one day?

Speaker 2

So I knew she would pick a TikTok influencer, but I didn't know who it would be, so I just put coffee plants clothes.

Speaker 1

I'm okay with giving them that you said.

Speaker 5

TikTok influencer. That's who she is. That's pretty broad.

Speaker 2

But okay, okay, should we do half? I'll give them a half. Have a point? I want to see your answer. Oh my gosh.

Speaker 3

We totally got this wrong.

Speaker 2

There you go. Majority vote, you get a half point.

Speaker 1

So we'll do half a point there, because Elisa was in the same vein right.

Speaker 5

Yes it was Okay. This person I chose is not because they were wise or anything. It's because of what they do and I think they're amazing and so talented. So I said Celine Dion.

Speaker 3

Celine Dion yeah, I was going to put a singer, but I didn't put a singer and I couldn't think of anything, so I put your mom, that's sweet, that's nice.

Speaker 5

Yeah, but it's still wrong, but I like it.

Speaker 1

Nice, that's crazy All right.

Speaker 3

So that was a hard one.

Speaker 5

That was a hard one, that was tough.

Speaker 1

So let's see, okay, that's a hard one too, let's just do a different and easier one.

Speaker 4

Please. Oh, here we go. Okay, all right.

Speaker 1

So this is for the guys, okay. So what is? What is your girl's most repeated phrase or sentence or word Like? What do they say? Do they have like a phrase that they constantly say over and over?

Speaker 5

There's several. There's several, yeah same thing first.

Speaker 1

So what does Lexi, or what does Lisa say over and over? Or they respond a certain way. What is the constant phrase? I can't think of it right now, on the spot.

Speaker 5

It's probably buy me, can't think of it right now On the spot.

Speaker 1

It's probably buy me this. No, it's not.

Speaker 2

Thanks, John. Am I right or am I wrong? You're funny and right.

Speaker 1

So they're writing. Lexi has her answer. It looks like Lisa's already done too. Okay, this is great.

Speaker 4

So they know themselves well, I say this all the time, okay so we started with Lexi last time.

Speaker 1

So, lisa, why don't you go ahead and tell us what's a repeated phrase, word, sentence that you say all the time?

Speaker 5

This is a phrase I'm always saying cool beans, jeans, Cool beans, jeans.

Speaker 1

I like it, I like it, it a lot oh boy, let's see.

Speaker 3

Um, that doesn't sound good.

Speaker 5

Um.

Speaker 2

Cool beans, cool beans.

Speaker 1

He wrote cool beans jeans, nice job. So we've got two to one and a half here. So, lexi, what is your repeated phrase, word or sentence?

Speaker 4

I feel like, because John is always being silly, I'm usually saying strange, Strange.

Speaker 2

I didn't get it. I was going to say, oh yeah, because you always sing this right here. That is true, though, isn't it? That's really true? She does go. Oh yeah, that's cute, do it real quick, hit it. Oh yeah, no, she it. Hit it, oh yeah.

Speaker 4

No dude.

Speaker 2

She held back a little.

Speaker 5

She held back, I love it, that is adorable that is cool, I know, and it was the right answer Dang it.

Speaker 2

Yes, it was All right, nice work, okay.

Speaker 1

So let's see, the rights have taken the lead. So we got two Only. Anybody's game, anybody, okay, alright. So this question is Okay, this could be both for you guys. Where's your dream Vacation that you have not been to yet? Where's your dream Vacation that both of you want to go? So the writing.

Speaker 2

Both.

Speaker 1

Okay, well, or Both.

Speaker 2

So we have to get the same answer for both of them.

Speaker 5

Yes, correct yes.

Speaker 1

What is your dream vacation together? Okay, lexi, knew that one really fast. Oh, lisa's already in Paul. Oh wow, okay, this is great. No, we probably have it wrong oh. God, All right. Well, we'll go and start with them, John, while you're thinking Alright, Lisa, what do you got? We've got.

Speaker 3

Fiji, bora Bora. It's right there. It's right there in the same spot.

Speaker 5

It's not the same name, but it's right there, that's true.

Speaker 1

So how do we want to handle that one? I don't know. You don't have to give us the point.

Speaker 4

It's super close though it's super close, very close, lexi. What do you got? I hope John got this right, because we talk about it all the time Hawaii.

Speaker 3

Hawaii.

Speaker 1

Good job. That's what I'm talking about.

Speaker 2

You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 5

But, honey, we've had a conversation about Fiji, not Borobor.

Speaker 3

Just saying I want to go to Borobor. Maybe we're going separately. Had a conversation about Fiji, not Borobor, no Borobor, just saying I want to go to Borobor. Oh yeah, maybe we're going separately in two different locations, oh yeah.

Speaker 2

Okay, one, three, oh yeah.

Speaker 5

He said one, three, not even two.

Speaker 1

So nice, good job on that one.

Speaker 3

You got us by half a point again. Come on, Pookie.

Speaker 1

We'll talk about Pookie later. You got us by half a point. Come on Pookie.

Speaker 3

Alright, here we go. Oh, we'll talk about Pookie later.

Speaker 2

Wow.

Speaker 4

You actually said that Come on, P-Hubs.

Speaker 1

Alright, so this is something that again, you guys should probably get together. What's the silliest argument you've had as a couple? It could be over a certain thing, a situation, anything. What's over. The silliest thing like? It could be over a toothbrush how you put away the toothbrushes, or something, something like that. I got it okay, silliest argument yeah, like that you the craziest argument that you've had think hard, but not too deep, lexi hey, that's over the table. Talk here hey, I'm sorry, all right.

Speaker 1

So well you guys. Hey, I'm sorry, all right. So you guys got it. So I'm going to try to keep it moving too. So, john, you want to go ahead and go for yours? Yeah, lexi, you ready, I don't have to.

Speaker 4

I'm almost done.

Speaker 2

Okay, do I need to wait? Well, yeah, I have to wait because Lexi has to yeah, yeah, yeah. Silly argument, sure, why not all right so still writing.

Speaker 1

Everybody's got time to think I'm ready. Oh okay, cool, stop, I'm just kidding.

Speaker 2

Uh, are you good over there in the trance, my boy?

Speaker 3

um, I'm completely like all right, so I'm good, yeah, go ahead, john.

Speaker 1

Yeah, lexi got her answer okay how I chew. I chew loudly oh man, oh, all right, what do you got lexi?

Speaker 4

well, since john is allergic to my dog uh, let's see he'll blow his nose the entire time he's over, but then won't flush the toilet, he'll just leave it there oh yeah, that's a good.

Speaker 2

I feel like I've done that at your here. Yeah, paul's in another world.

Speaker 3

What's wrong with you? Are you okay? I'm not okay, because. I have nothing on my board right now.

Speaker 5

Just think about what I fuss at you. About, I mean, you fuss.

Speaker 4

I'm not going to say that?

Speaker 3

No, she doesn't. Let's see.

Speaker 1

Alright, we're going to have to attend second countdown.

Speaker 2

I think he gets deducted a point if he waits over 30 minutes.

Speaker 3

No, there's no points being deducted. 30 minutes there's no points being deducted. There just won't be any points, all right, so we'll give it 10 seconds here, Mr Paul.

Speaker 5

I have nothing, you got nothing, no point.

Speaker 1

Eight.

Speaker 5

This is a tough one.

Speaker 3

I have nothing. You didn't even try, I have nothing.

Speaker 2

That's a good thing, though, because that means you haven't argued, it's true.

Speaker 3

We don't argue very often there you go.

Speaker 1

So, lisa, what did you write down?

Speaker 5

So I'm always amazed that we have the pull out trash can that looks like the cabinet door right there on the island, so he'll walk over, put his trash on top of the countertop.

Speaker 3

Literally all he has to do is pull the drawer open and throw it in, but let me just let me state this I'm like but it was right there, but let me state this. We've never argued about it.

Speaker 5

No, but that's all I could think of.

Speaker 3

That was his question.

Speaker 2

Well, now you are Well, I mean no we're not yes.

Speaker 5

No, we're not, but that's all I could think of.

Speaker 3

But that's not an argument.

Speaker 1

That's good, but it's not an argument, all right. Well, maybe I should have said like fuss over or complain.

Speaker 3

Let's not get political here, guys, here we go. Guys, you guys go for it, Paul you're fussing over it now.

Speaker 5

See it's all fresh with them. They remember everything, did you?

Speaker 3

already do your thing already. Yeah, nobody got a point there, right?

Speaker 1

No, no points there. So we still got two and a half to two, so the youngins still winning.

Speaker 5

So this one's for the girls.

Speaker 1

This one's for the girls, if you were not. So if this was, Pre your man and he approached you To show interest in you. What would be his opening line or his approach? That's hard.

Speaker 2

Well, you guys know each other. I'm not married to you, brandon, talk lower.

Speaker 1

That's not how I wrote it.

Speaker 3

I'm joking. What would be my pickup line? Yeah, what would be your pickup?

Speaker 1

line. Come on, we're having fun. Paul wouldn't use a pickup line, All right. Well, how would he approach you? What would he do, Paul? What would you do? So that's the question. Oh, you're still thinking.

Speaker 2

What would I say to Lexi? Yeah, what would you say to Lexi? Well, what I said to her at the beginning wasn't already like all that smart yeah.

Speaker 1

Well then write that down the first thing.

Speaker 2

I said or drink or party. That was my pickup line, and she fell in love.

Speaker 1

You guys better hurry, All right come on. No, you can't write that. If I had to do it again, yeah, if you had to do it again Right Now that you know John, how would he approach?

Speaker 4

you.

Speaker 1

Okay, all right, so it looks like Paul and Lisa their answers.

Speaker 4

I have a question. Yeah, what's your question? So am I thinking of how John was before we met?

Speaker 1

No, so now, knowing him, how do you think he would approach you now with an opening line or a pickup line or something like that, or how would he go about it? And we'll be a little broad here, because it's a hard question. Okay, paul, what would you put? What'd you put? What'd you get? I just said, I'd say hi you can say hi, I don't have a pick up line, hi, how?

Speaker 5

are you? Hey, that's good, that's it, that's it, that's it.

Speaker 2

Yeah, there you go.

Speaker 1

Nice job All right so that's a point, let's get the ding.

Speaker 2

Let's get the ding going.

Speaker 3

Mr Paul. Oh ding there we go.

Speaker 1

There, it is Ding it, all right Ding it, do you?

Speaker 2

want me to tell you mine? Yeah, go ahead, john. Okay, hey, want to grab coffee.

Speaker 4

No, Just no, just no. Okay, he actually would probably try to do something funny, but then I didn't want to keep writing, but it would just end up being awkward and socially unaware when am I ever socially unaware? Oh, I don't, yeah.

Speaker 2

Yeah, never. Isaac says it best. I have great music skills, exactly, thank you. So hey, we're back.

Speaker 1

Oh yeah, so all right. Now this one is this should be a little bit easier, okay.

Speaker 2

Oh, thank you.

Speaker 1

So these have been some hard questions, so now this one's. So this is going to be either me or you they're up by a half right so it's three to two and a half I think so you're going to either write me or her vice

Speaker 2

versa. So yes, our answers are only me or her were you thinking about how this smells too.

Speaker 1

No, somebody's got to bring order to this podcast, okay, so again, which one of you is more likely to get distracted?

Speaker 2

You'll either write John or Lexi, or you'll either write Paul or Lisa, right, they're not actually asking that question right now.

Speaker 1

No, I'm asking that question. Which one of you would be more likely? To get distracted, which we already know. This answer by how you're responding. I'm ready. Okay, lexi. What do you got, lexi, john, john Me, yes, there you go. There's a point.

Speaker 4

Nice.

Speaker 1

There you go and let's see Lisa.

Speaker 4

Lisa.

Speaker 1

I just want to make it clear. Paul wrote like eight exclamation marks, no there's like 20.

Speaker 5

Why do you need all those? What?

Speaker 3

does that mean? It's obvious?

Speaker 5

I mean, I got one, but that's like 25.

Speaker 1

Okay, Again, this is another similar question in that same vein. Okay, and I want some conversation after this one Okay. Because I think that's going to be good. Okay, who wears the pants?

Speaker 5

in the relationship.

Speaker 1

Oh, now again, you want the same answer, easy, so this is going to be an interesting one. Oh, wow, lexi wrote that way too fast. Okay, and it looks like we're good Alright we started over here last time. What do you got, lisa?

Speaker 5

Paul.

Speaker 1

Okay, there we go, alright.

Speaker 5

Okay, there we go, all right.

Speaker 1

Good teamwork, here we go. So it is four to two and a half, is that right? No, no, no, right now it's four to two and a half.

Speaker 2

No, it's four to three and a half, because we both scored on the last one. Yeah, so it's five.

Speaker 3

Five to three and a half. Five to three and a half.

Speaker 2

We're coming up close Behind both of your cheeks.

Speaker 5

What.

Speaker 3

We're going to dive into that one.

Speaker 1

This could be a little bit easier. You can't use the thing that you said earlier with this one. What's the thing? So this is for the girls. What's the thing your guy does that gets on your nerves the most? Okay, so it can't be the on the counter food thing. What is the thing that your guy does that gets on your nerves most and you can't write the flush?

Speaker 3

the toilet and no chewing on my nerve.

Speaker 1

The most yeah, so do you do.

Speaker 3

What do I do to get some of her nerves the most Exactly Correct?

Speaker 4

I can only think of the thing that.

Speaker 3

John said earlier what's the?

Speaker 5

second Is there a second? There's only one thing.

Speaker 2

Do you hear that? Is there a second?

Speaker 1

Oh wow, relationship is going well. They're thinking. Paul's thinking All right, we got the music rolling. John's writing.

Speaker 3

Lisa at hers really quick. And that scares me actually because I can't think of anything. Hold on.

Speaker 1

I thought I was perfect.

Speaker 5

Not, that's it. I'm kidding, I got mine.

Speaker 1

Okay Cool, lexi's got hers, lisa's got hers paul is still thinking so we're gonna go ahead and go with john. What is the thing that you think that you do that gets on lexi's nerves the most?

Speaker 2

when I look at myself only on facetime oh my gosh, I wrote something different okay, that's all right.

Speaker 1

What do you got?

Speaker 4

When he is not going to stop being silly in public?

Speaker 2

But you just put being silly in public, that's it.

Speaker 5

We know what you meant. We know what you meant.

Speaker 4

You like, look at the other people's faces and they're like ready for the conversation to be over and he's continuing to talk to them and it gets awkward. Yeah, nice.

Speaker 5

Okay, he's continuing to talk to them and it gets awkward yeah.

Speaker 1

Nice, that's funny. All right, Lisa, what do you got?

Speaker 5

That was creative when he snorts.

Speaker 1

When he snorts.

Speaker 5

Okay, snorts.

Speaker 3

Okay, now, here's the deal. Here's the deal. There's the story. Wait a minute, here's the deal.

Speaker 2

Here's the deal. Here's the deal, Paul. When you.

Speaker 3

So here's the deal.

Speaker 5

It's a lot, but not always.

Speaker 3

I haven't had allergy issues in such a long time. She still uses this as a thing, but it's not a thing anymore.

Speaker 2

I'm just saying that for the record, when you clear your throat, when he snorts. No, okay, so you know what I'm saying, but but what did?

Speaker 5

you write. What'd you write? When I snort oh man, but what did you write? What'd you write when I snort, oh man?

Speaker 3

Because look, here's the deal.

Speaker 2

But I know she was going to say that.

Speaker 3

We've had conversations about this y'all. She keeps saying you snort, you snort, you snort.

Speaker 1

I say I don't snort anymore. Hey, I thought you didn't argue, paul.

Speaker 5

Yeah right, exactly, we seriously have had conversations and I'll be like, okay, honey, there's a difference between sniffing and snorting.

Speaker 3

So are we really talking about this?

Speaker 5

on the podcast. Want to get something, just you know, drippy out of you there.

Speaker 3

It's a snort, it's a sniff. No, it's a sniff. That's what you do, it's. Have you heard me snort ever? Like honey, learn how to sniff you don't always need a snort.

Speaker 5

I'm just kidding, no, okay. What is your answer when I say that?

Speaker 3

What.

Speaker 5

What is your explanation for why you snort?

Speaker 3

Because my nose itches.

Speaker 5

Because, instead of just doing this or whatever, he snorts.

Speaker 3

My nose itches way up here so he can vibrate it. So I get the itch.

Speaker 5

Yeah, but it's not a snort, I know, but here's the deal. I get that. What I don't get is when his nose is running instead of sniffing, he snorts.

Speaker 2

That's all I'm talking about. I'm glad Moving on.

Speaker 5

Yeah.

Speaker 1

It's a little touch subject Moving on. Let's see Next question.

Speaker 4

Here we go. Did you already do yours?

Speaker 1

Yeah, there, you did yours.

Speaker 2

What am I doing? Because I'm trying to think of an answer.

Speaker 1

But you guys are up one and a half, so it's looking good for you guys. Alright, so this is the last question.

Speaker 3

And it's worth a million points.

Speaker 4

Sure.

Speaker 1

Okay, here we go. What's the thing and this is just for fun, this is to end on a fun note what's the thing that you love most about your spouse? What's the thing you love most about your spouse?

Speaker 2

So you can't lose here. You can't lose here.

Speaker 1

No, this is just for fun.

Speaker 2

Ultimately, we lose back.

Speaker 3

Well you lost already she's saying this about me, and then you're saying about her Right right.

Speaker 1

This is just to end it in Feel the love. Feel the love for one another, that's good yeah, so we're going to end on a great note. What is the thing you love? The most about the other person. Got mine, okay, cool, so let's see. Well, john, why don't you go ahead and start?

Speaker 2

us off. I like how much you listen and love God.

Speaker 1

Hey, I like that Good answer. How about you?

Speaker 4

I said he makes everything fun and he loves Jesus.

Speaker 1

All right, I mean that's the same answer, so I'm good with giving that point. Do we have?

Speaker 2

a romantic song.

Speaker 1

I don't oh.

Speaker 2

I was thinking like Carol's.

Speaker 5

Whisperer. I wrote a book Too romantic Stop Cut it.

Speaker 1

Oh gosh, All right, Lisa, what'd you write?

Speaker 5

Okay, I said he's so giving and patient. He loves his family, he's a hard worker and he loves God.

Speaker 2

Wow, great answer, they outdid us. You wrote a book.

Speaker 3

I wrote it kind-hearted and she's very tame, absolutely All right.

Speaker 1

Well, ladies and gentlemen, that was the Nilly Weds game. We had a. Really that was great, that was really fun.

Speaker 3

I hope you guys enjoyed that that was a blast. Hey, you got to end with a song. Absolutely.

Speaker 1

Hey, thanks for listening. Folks Appreciate it.

Speaker 2

This. Thanks for listening. Folks Appreciate it. This has been the Newlyweds game. You sound like you're a top FBI raider stormtrooper. Okay whatever that means.

Speaker 1

All right. So, hey, I thought this would be kind of a fun question to kind of end this segment on. So, paul and Lisa, obviously you guys have been together for a really really long time, and then we've got some newlyweds here, if you will.

Speaker 3

By the way, why aren't you guys engaged yet?

Speaker 1

No, I was going to ask when are you going to?

Speaker 3

Oh gee, that is such a good question, no pressure.

Speaker 2

That's for me to know and someone to find out.

Speaker 5

That's between him and Jesus right now, right, right, right so what would you guys give as advice to a younger couple?

Speaker 1

Yeah, what would you say is something that has helped you guys have such a fruitful and long relationship?

Speaker 3

I can Easy. Okay, she's always right.

Speaker 5

I wish, I wish Good answer.

Speaker 3

You go for it.

Speaker 5

Well, the biggest thing that I learned? I think that really changed us.

Speaker 3

Oh, I know the one, go for it.

Speaker 5

Which you guys have already heard this and probably you already know it, but it's realized that it's not about being right, it's about making things right. That perspective changed everything for us.

Speaker 3

I was going to say choose your battles because, most, of it's not worth it to actually get into an argument over Well like we were in a church.

Speaker 1

You don't compromise over principle, but you compromise over preference.

Speaker 5

That's it.

Speaker 3

Right, correct.

Speaker 1

Okay, cool, that was great. That was really fun. Did you guys enjoy that? I hope I was coming up with some questions that you guys liked it. Yeah, that was a blast, do you want?

Speaker 2

us to give advice.

Speaker 1

Oh to them.

Speaker 5

Yeah, please.

Speaker 2

Give us advice. I don't know. I said wedding, but now you have dating advice. Dating advice biggest thing, I think, is just putting Jesus at the center of it and allowing your relationship to develop through prayer and through intentional time together, pursuing the Lord, and I think just without him in the middle it would just not be good because it just wouldn't be intentional, wouldn't be on purpose and it would just be all through the flesh. So yeah, I think just incorporating the Lord as much as possible is the best way, especially dating and then marriage too.

Speaker 5

That's right. It's true these days. It would be a mess without Jesus.

Speaker 2

And probably setting intentional time to hang out with each other, because your boy gets kind of busy, so purposely making time for each other is good too.

Speaker 5

Even when you've been married 17 years. I mean that will never stop applying. You'll always need to do that.

Speaker 1

Absolutely, Lexi. You want to add anything, or are you good?

Speaker 4

You know what she's so cute? I'm good.

Speaker 2

Okay, she's good she said she's good.

Speaker 4

I spoke for you. He said it all yeah, loving jesus, making time for each other, that's about, that's it.

Speaker 2

And making good espresso for john yeah, that's important running up them lattes okay, yeah yes, uh your button's broke. Buddy buttons, bro's broke.

Speaker 1

John, do us the honors.

Speaker 2

Sir, it's been a fun episode hope you cracked a cold one not alcohol, but I hope you maybe cracked an olipop or a zevia and joined the show. Those are both bussing drinks. We love you. We hope that you enjoyed today's episode. We hope that you go out and be mission men and women, lovely women and beautiful women and christian.

Speaker 5
