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 2You're trying to win.
Speaker 1Yeah, 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 2Don't say Brandon Lake Lexi.
Speaker 1Who would it be?
Speaker 3The day in the life of someone else.
Speaker 1Yes, who would your wife or your girlfriend be as somebody else for one day?
Speaker 5Who would that person be? Oh my gosh, I don't even know.
Speaker 1So 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 4Who would she?
Speaker 2be, yeah, who would?
Speaker 1she 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 3We have to get another 30 seconds on this that's a hard one, because I don't know like okay I have mine.
Speaker 5You got yours okay, so did you write yours already. No, I think I have an idea, though.
Speaker 4Okay so we'll start with, you guys. While you know who would she be, I have mine.
Speaker 1That's tough. You got yours Okay, so did you write yours already.
Dream Vacations and Silly Arguments
Speaker 4No, I think I have an idea, though. Okay, so we'll start with you guys while you're finishing up. Who would she?
Speaker 1be? 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 4so 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 1What does she influence?
Speaker 4um, 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 1All right, John. Who do you think Lexi would be for one day?
Speaker 2So 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 1I'm okay with giving them that you said.
Speaker 5TikTok influencer. That's who she is. That's pretty broad.
Speaker 2But 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 3We totally got this wrong.
Speaker 2There you go. Majority vote, you get a half point.
Speaker 1So we'll do half a point there, because Elisa was in the same vein right.
Speaker 5Yes 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 3Celine 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 5Yeah, but it's still wrong, but I like it.
Speaker 1Nice, that's crazy All right.
Speaker 3So that was a hard one.
Speaker 5That was a hard one, that was tough.
Speaker 1So let's see, okay, that's a hard one too, let's just do a different and easier one.
Speaker 4Please. Oh, here we go. Okay, all right.
Speaker 1So 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 5There's several. There's several, yeah same thing first.
Speaker 1So 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 5It's probably buy me, can't think of it right now On the spot.
Speaker 1It's probably buy me this. No, it's not.
Speaker 2Thanks, John. Am I right or am I wrong? You're funny and right.
Speaker 1So they're writing. Lexi has her answer. It looks like Lisa's already done too. Okay, this is great.
Speaker 4So they know themselves well, I say this all the time, okay so we started with Lexi last time.
Speaker 1So, lisa, why don't you go ahead and tell us what's a repeated phrase, word, sentence that you say all the time?
Speaker 5This is a phrase I'm always saying cool beans, jeans, Cool beans, jeans.
Speaker 1I like it, I like it, it a lot oh boy, let's see.
Speaker 3Um, that doesn't sound good.
Speaker 5Um.
Speaker 2Cool beans, cool beans.
Speaker 1He 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 4I feel like, because John is always being silly, I'm usually saying strange, Strange.
Speaker 2I 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 4No dude.
Speaker 2She held back a little.
Speaker 5She held back, I love it, that is adorable that is cool, I know, and it was the right answer Dang it.
Speaker 2Yes, it was All right, nice work, okay.
Speaker 1So 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 2Both.
Speaker 1Okay, well, or Both.
Speaker 2So we have to get the same answer for both of them.
Speaker 5Yes, correct yes.
Speaker 1What 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 3Fiji, bora Bora. It's right there. It's right there in the same spot.
Speaker 5It's not the same name, but it's right there, that's true.
Speaker 1So how do we want to handle that one? I don't know. You don't have to give us the point.
Speaker 4It'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 3Hawaii.
Speaker 1Good job. That's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5But, honey, we've had a conversation about Fiji, not Borobor.
Speaker 3Just 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 2Okay, one, three, oh yeah.
Speaker 5He said one, three, not even two.
Speaker 1So nice, good job on that one.
Speaker 3You got us by half a point again. Come on, Pookie.

Speaker 3Alright, here we go. Oh, we'll talk about Pookie later.
Speaker 2Wow.
Speaker 4You actually said that Come on, P-Hubs.
Speaker 1Alright, 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 1So 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 4I'm almost done.
Speaker 2Okay, 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 1Everybody's got time to think I'm ready. Oh okay, cool, stop, I'm just kidding.
Speaker 2Uh, are you good over there in the trance, my boy?
Speaker 3um, I'm completely like all right, so I'm good, yeah, go ahead, john.
Speaker 1Yeah, lexi got her answer okay how I chew. I chew loudly oh man, oh, all right, what do you got lexi?
Speaker 4well, 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 2I feel like I've done that at your here. Yeah, paul's in another world.
Speaker 3What's wrong with you? Are you okay? I'm not okay, because. I have nothing on my board right now.
Speaker 5Just think about what I fuss at you. About, I mean, you fuss.
Speaker 4I'm not going to say that?
Speaker 3No, she doesn't. Let's see.
Speaker 1Alright, we're going to have to attend second countdown.
Speaker 2I think he gets deducted a point if he waits over 30 minutes.
Speaker 3No, 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 5I have nothing, you got nothing, no point.
Speaker 1Eight.
Speaker 5This is a tough one.
Speaker 3I have nothing. You didn't even try, I have nothing.
Speaker 2That's a good thing, though, because that means you haven't argued, it's true.
Speaker 3We don't argue very often there you go.
Speaker 1So, lisa, what did you write down?
Speaker 5So 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 3Literally 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 5No, but that's all I could think of.
Speaker 3That was his question.
Speaker 2Well, now you are Well, I mean no we're not yes.
Speaker 5No, we're not, but that's all I could think of.
Speaker 3But that's not an argument.
Speaker 1That's good, but it's not an argument, all right. Well, maybe I should have said like fuss over or complain.
Speaker 3Let's not get political here, guys, here we go. Guys, you guys go for it, Paul you're fussing over it now.
Speaker 5See it's all fresh with them. They remember everything, did you?
Speaker 3already do your thing already. Yeah, nobody got a point there, right?
Speaker 1No, no points there. So we still got two and a half to two, so the youngins still winning.
Speaker 5So this one's for the girls.
Speaker 1This 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 2Well, you guys know each other. I'm not married to you, brandon, talk lower.
Speaker 1That's not how I wrote it.
Speaker 3I'm joking. What would be my pickup line? Yeah, what would be your pickup?
Speaker 1line. 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 2What 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 1Well then write that down the first thing.
Speaker 2I said or drink or party. That was my pickup line, and she fell in love.
Speaker 1You 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 4you.
Speaker 1Okay, all right, so it looks like Paul and Lisa their answers.
Speaker 4I have a question. Yeah, what's your question? So am I thinking of how John was before we met?
Speaker 1No, 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 5are you? Hey, that's good, that's it, that's it, that's it.
Speaker 2Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 1Nice job All right so that's a point, let's get the ding.
Speaker 2Let's get the ding going.
Speaker 3Mr Paul. Oh ding there we go.
Speaker 1There, it is Ding it, all right Ding it, do you?
Speaker 2want me to tell you mine? Yeah, go ahead, john. Okay, hey, want to grab coffee.
Speaker 4No, 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 2Yeah, never. Isaac says it best. I have great music skills, exactly, thank you. So hey, we're back.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, so all right. Now this one is this should be a little bit easier, okay.
Speaker 2Oh, thank you.
Speaker 1So 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 2versa. So yes, our answers are only me or her were you thinking about how this smells too.
Speaker 1No, somebody's got to bring order to this podcast, okay, so again, which one of you is more likely to get distracted?
Speaker 2You'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 1No, 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 4Nice.
Speaker 1There you go and let's see Lisa.
Speaker 4Lisa.
Speaker 1I just want to make it clear. Paul wrote like eight exclamation marks, no there's like 20.
Speaker 5Why do you need all those? What?
Speaker 3does that mean? It's obvious?
Speaker 5I mean, I got one, but that's like 25.
Speaker 1Okay, 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 5in the relationship.
Speaker 1Oh, 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 5Paul.
Speaker 1Okay, there we go, alright.
Speaker 5Okay, there we go, all right.
Speaker 1Good 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 2No, it's four to three and a half, because we both scored on the last one. Yeah, so it's five.
Speaker 3Five to three and a half. Five to three and a half.
Speaker 2We're coming up close Behind both of your cheeks.
Speaker 5What.
Speaker 3We're going to dive into that one.
Speaker 1This 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 3the toilet and no chewing on my nerve.
Speaker 1The most yeah, so do you do.
Speaker 3What do I do to get some of her nerves the most Exactly Correct?
Speaker 4I can only think of the thing that.
Speaker 3John said earlier what's the?
Speaker 5second Is there a second? There's only one thing.
Speaker 2Do you hear that? Is there a second?
Speaker 1Oh wow, relationship is going well. They're thinking. Paul's thinking All right, we got the music rolling. John's writing.
Speaker 3Lisa at hers really quick. And that scares me actually because I can't think of anything. Hold on.
Speaker 1I thought I was perfect.
Speaker 5Not, that's it. I'm kidding, I got mine.
Speaker 1Okay 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 2when I look at myself only on facetime oh my gosh, I wrote something different okay, that's all right.
Speaker 1What do you got?
Speaker 4When he is not going to stop being silly in public?
Speaker 2But you just put being silly in public, that's it.
Speaker 5We know what you meant. We know what you meant.
Speaker 4You 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 5Okay, he's continuing to talk to them and it gets awkward yeah.
Speaker 1Nice, that's funny. All right, Lisa, what do you got?
Speaker 5That was creative when he snorts.
Speaker 1When he snorts.
Speaker 5Okay, snorts.
Speaker 3Okay, now, here's the deal. Here's the deal. There's the story. Wait a minute, here's the deal.
Speaker 2Here's the deal. Here's the deal, Paul. When you.
Speaker 3So here's the deal.
Speaker 5It's a lot, but not always.
Speaker 3I 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 2I'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 5you 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 3Because look, here's the deal.
Speaker 2But I know she was going to say that.
Speaker 3We've had conversations about this y'all. She keeps saying you snort, you snort, you snort.
Speaker 1I say I don't snort anymore. Hey, I thought you didn't argue, paul.
Speaker 5Yeah right, exactly, we seriously have had conversations and I'll be like, okay, honey, there's a difference between sniffing and snorting.
Speaker 3So are we really talking about this?
Speaker 5on the podcast. Want to get something, just you know, drippy out of you there.
Speaker 3It'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 5I'm just kidding, no, okay. What is your answer when I say that?
Speaker 3What.
Speaker 5What is your explanation for why you snort?
Speaker 3Because my nose itches.
Speaker 5Because, instead of just doing this or whatever, he snorts.
Speaker 3My nose itches way up here so he can vibrate it. So I get the itch.
Speaker 5Yeah, 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 2That's all I'm talking about. I'm glad Moving on.
Speaker 5Yeah.
Speaker 1It's a little touch subject Moving on. Let's see Next question.
Speaker 4Here we go. Did you already do yours?
Speaker 1Yeah, there, you did yours.
Speaker 2What am I doing? Because I'm trying to think of an answer.
Speaker 1But you guys are up one and a half, so it's looking good for you guys. Alright, so this is the last question.
Speaker 3And it's worth a million points.
Speaker 4Sure.
Speaker 1Okay, 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 2us off. I like how much you listen and love God.
Speaker 1Hey, I like that Good answer. How about you?
Speaker 4I said he makes everything fun and he loves Jesus.
Speaker 1All right, I mean that's the same answer, so I'm good with giving that point. Do we have?
Speaker 2a romantic song.
Speaker 1I don't oh.
Speaker 2I was thinking like Carol's.
Speaker 5Whisperer. I wrote a book Too romantic Stop Cut it.
Speaker 1Oh gosh, All right, Lisa, what'd you write?
Speaker 5Okay, I said he's so giving and patient. He loves his family, he's a hard worker and he loves God.
Speaker 2Wow, great answer, they outdid us. You wrote a book.
Speaker 3I wrote it kind-hearted and she's very tame, absolutely All right.
Speaker 1Well, ladies and gentlemen, that was the Nilly Weds game. We had a. Really that was great, that was really fun.
Speaker 3I hope you guys enjoyed that that was a blast. Hey, you got to end with a song. Absolutely.
Speaker 1Hey, thanks for listening. Folks Appreciate it.
Speaker 2This. 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 1All 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 3By the way, why aren't you guys engaged yet?
Speaker 1No, I was going to ask when are you going to?
Speaker 3Oh gee, that is such a good question, no pressure.
Speaker 2That's for me to know and someone to find out.
Speaker 5That's between him and Jesus right now, right, right, right so what would you guys give as advice to a younger couple?
Speaker 1Yeah, what would you say is something that has helped you guys have such a fruitful and long relationship?
Speaker 3I can Easy. Okay, she's always right.
Speaker 5I wish, I wish Good answer.
Speaker 3You go for it.
Speaker 5Well, the biggest thing that I learned? I think that really changed us.
Speaker 3Oh, I know the one, go for it.
Speaker 5Which 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 3I 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 1You don't compromise over principle, but you compromise over preference.
Speaker 5That's it.
Speaker 3Right, correct.
Speaker 1Okay, 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 2us to give advice.
Speaker 1Oh to them.
Speaker 5Yeah, please.
Speaker 2Give 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 5That's right. It's true these days. It would be a mess without Jesus.
Speaker 2And 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 5Even when you've been married 17 years. I mean that will never stop applying. You'll always need to do that.
Speaker 1Absolutely, Lexi. You want to add anything, or are you good?
Speaker 4You know what she's so cute? I'm good.
Speaker 2Okay, she's good she said she's good.
Speaker 4I spoke for you. He said it all yeah, loving jesus, making time for each other, that's about, that's it.
Speaker 2And 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.
