Speaker 1 (00:02):
Hey, everyone, welcome back to Battery half the Hour.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
I'm Joe and I'm Serena and this is.
Speaker 1 (00:06):
Fan Question is Part two. We are back for part
two of our episode.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
We are answering all the questions we love Harry from
you guys. It's always some of our favorite podcasts to
deal and honestly the easiest because we.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Just talked about ourselves the whole time. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Who doesn't love to do that, you guys.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
I'd like the audience is interviewing us, you know.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
I know they're doing our job for a minute. Yeah right,
But before we do, we are now gonna break down
some Bachriination news, which is what I used to do.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Back you know what, when you did Clickbait, I would
listen to pretty much every single episode and I always
liked it.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
I knew you were a fan.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
I was a fan. I was a fan of you. Well,
I started listening after we got together, if I'm being
totally honest.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
But.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
I always thought bacher Nation News with you, Natasha and
Tia was like the best part. I thought it was
so fun.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Yeah, we haven't done it forever. I used to kind
of sit back in the wings and let Natasha talk.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
About it, so I know, vote no Natasha here today,
and I'm not going to be doing that. So step up, Joey,
step up.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
First one, Gabby and girlfriend Robbie talk about moving in
together and discuss a queer bachelorette.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
I mean, they've been together for almost a year now.
I think I'm trying to think when the relations I
think it was last spring, Yeah, because I remember Rachel
Rekia being like they had just started seeing each other
before she went to film Paradise and she made a
joke like I wouldn't have been surprised if, like I
came back and they were like married, Like they were
obsessed with each other right away.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Yeah, when we went to La and went paintballing with Gabby,
I feel like she was already low key in that relationship.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
That was what in end of May of last year. Yeah, yes, yes, yes,
we didn't know about it at the time, but she
was already seeing Robbie and then she announced it. I
don't know, like June, I think, I don't know. I
don't know, but around this time moving.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
In together, though, I would say moving in together is
the biggest step in a relationship besides having a child.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
I would agree.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
It's just as big as getting married, like moving in together.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
I mean, getting married is massive change. Yeah, people, both
people's line.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Getting married is a big commitment. But like, at the
end of the day, it doesn't change at least for us,
it did not change the structure of our relationship or
our day to day. I mean, it definitely changed the
fact that we're committed to each other for life. But
like I mean, at the end of the day, we
could get divorced. Yea, there's an option. And also if
(02:52):
you live with someone it's for like two to three years,
you're totally considered common law married. Yeah, so like there's
still like.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
A yeah, an attachment that what you said, it's it is.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
It changes kind of how you operate out a day
to day. Yes, because now there's somebody in your space.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Yeah, one hundred percent, you're sharing your home with another person.
It does, and you're seeing this person way more. You're
having to like compromise and like navigate how you live together,
which if you don't live together, if you don't live
in similar ways, it can create problems.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I love how we just explained what it is to
move so much like.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
For those of you that don't know this is what
it means when two people move in together.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
It's oh my gosh, but yeah, no it is.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
I think it's just a mess.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
It's a big step. It's like our relationship probably changed
more when we moved in together than when we got married.
And then I think, obviously, I think having kids is
probably the biggest, the biggest change. But happy for them.
That's amazing, love that they're they're moving together. I feel
like from social media it looks like they're together, like
twenty four to seven. Anyway, I kind of already thought
(04:16):
they lived together. But I'm glad that they're doing well
and they're taking this step. Every time I see them
on our screens or on social they just seem very
happy and in love, which is wonderful.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
And then they discuss a queer bachelorette.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
When I was probably too young to be watching this.
I was at a friend's house. I wasn't even watching
like the Battery at it this time, but I remember
they did like Tila Tequila's Search for Love, Do you
remember that? And they had like girls and guys. That's
the closest thing in the US I've ever seen to
(04:51):
like a queer dating show or someone as the lead
of a dating show from the LGBTQ plus community. One
of my best friends who is gay, he was like,
a gay bopsler would never work because you would have
one male lead and then just a house full of
men that are all attracted to one another.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
I still don't know why they haven't, well, like, why
haven't we done that? Like that?
Speaker 2 (05:17):
That would be I feel like it have to be
like Paradise, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Want that because honestly, that adds so much drama. I mean, wait,
could you imagine at the end when the.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
Lead is ready to propose to a person and then
that person's like, hey, listen, also like you're not the
only one that hooked up with Jeffrey.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
I Also, I was like what and then he can't?
Like could he even get mad? Because like if the
lead gets bad, it's like, well, like but you did
it too.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
It would be wild.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
I think they would have to create a unique structure
or like an adjustment in the rule book if they
were to do a queer lead. But I think it
would be fun. I think it's something they should explore.
I mean, they have had certain like aspects of representation
through the show. But like they've had people on the show,
(06:14):
like contestants that are openly bisexual. They've had people come
out and say, you know that they're gay, but they've
never had someone on the show like as the lead
at that time.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Yeah, okay, uh moving on Blake Horsemen in Giannina from
Love Is Blind.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Just had a baby.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
I know, I think the baby looks so much like her,
like the eyes, Like she has these really beautiful, big,
like almond shaped eyes, and I feel like the baby
like looks so much like her.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
I never think babies look like anyone until they until
they start hitting like the three Yeah, two three year
old age.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
You're not wrong because like, but you can kind of
pinpoint like certain features.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
I don't know, I always feel like it's a stretch.
Maybe I always feel like it to show. When I
see like like like one month old, I'm like, they
don't look like anyone except like the other one month.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Old, even like your cousin's baby. Yeah, when he was born,
you were like, oh my god, he looks so much
like the mom your cousin, And now that he's like two,
everyone's like, no, he looks like the dad.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Yeah, I I I yeah, I don't know. I don't know.
I just don't.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
I think I think babies all look just like babies.
I don't think they look like their parents.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Okay, you think they like grow into.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
It and they're growing. And I think everyone that says that,
I think they're just wrong.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Okay, it's fo Yeah, I just think it's a stretch
maybe a little bit. Yeah, but I think it's just
fun to speculate.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Also, Oh, also, like I don't I don't judge, like
I like, everyone's not everyone sees must see the same thing.
Because there's people that have said, like, I look like
someone and I'll be like or like I'll like a
friend looks like like a like an actor or something. Yeah,
(08:21):
that's not even like close, like like no, like I
don't look like this person or this No, like you're
not even close, Like how is this what you see?
Speaker 2 (08:32):
I mean, yeah, I think appearance is somewhat subjective.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Effect. Like some people have cilantro and they love it.
I don't know if anyone really loves cilantro.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
I like cilantro, but do you love it? Love's a
strong word. I don't know if there's any herb that
I love.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
But some people eat cilantro and it tastes like soap.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Yeah, but that's a genetic thing.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Yeah, And that's why I think maybe maybe with some
people's like vision, it's like you may, I don't know,
maybe some features stand out more to you.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
That has to be no way we all no way,
the entire well, it's just just let's just call it
the United States. No way, the entire United States looks
at Serena Pitt and sees the same face I see.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Why not you think, I'm like, I'm just telling you
that's transforming.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
I just I don't think people see everyone for what
everyone sees them as. Does that make sense?
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Kind of?
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Because I'm just telling you because there are people that
have compared you to a certain person, and I'll look
at the person they're comparing you to and be like,
that's not even No, that's not what she's not what
I see, that's not what she looks like. And I
so the only way that this makes that I can
make this make sense to me is the ciladral fact.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
But I also think, like when you receive not just you,
like when people perceive someone's looks, there's so many factors
that go into it, like you knowing. I think personality
plays a big factor in how attractive or unattractive people
view other people. Do you know what I mean? Like
(10:18):
I think like and I think but yeah, if we're
just talking straight up features like physical features, I don't know.
I think you're not wrong, Like I think that, like
you might look at me and be like, oh, because
she has like dark hair and this color skin, she
looks like this person. But then if you break down
like features, maybe I don't. I don't know, I know
(10:40):
what you're saying.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
I just want to bring it back that this topic
is about Blake and Right.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
And their child and their new room baby. So happy
for them. The baby's name is Heath, Heath, I forget
the middle name Heath something horsemen, do.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
You feel like it is now.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Something that has you have to do if you are
someone that has a social media following, take professional photos
when you have a kid.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Quick pause. The baby's name is Heath Orion or O'Ryan. Okay, horseman.
The middle name is beout O R I O N.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
What happened to Joe or Jeff?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
What do you mean you don't like the name Heath?
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Get me just navy?
Speaker 2 (11:29):
Yeah, let's go literally half your.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
Family Joe, Jim or Jeff or John, Mike.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
You're just naming one syllable white boy names. We won't
be naming our kid any of those.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Name our kid Joey.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
No, we're not, Yeah, Joey. The thing is, I'm like
quaking right now because I know your dad's listening to
this podcast, being like, what's wrong with the name Joe.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
No, we're gonna name our daughter Mittilda.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Already said that, saying that literally since we met.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
What was I just talking about though.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
The name Heath and how people should just.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
Name no, no, No, I was talking about something before
some of them before Heath.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Oh, yeah, sorry, I did cut you off. I'm sorry.
I don't remember what you were saying. But I don't
have a middle name, so I'm indifferent on giving our
kid a middle name.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
Yeah, I don't. I don't think the kid needs a
middle name. The only reason I feel like I even
have a middle name is because my father and I
have the same name. Yes, and his father and so,
and that's the only thing. That's the only way you're
a junior is if you have the same whole name.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Oh, so you're technically not a I'm you're just another Joe.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
I'm just yeah, I'm Joseph. You're Joseph, Joseph Anthony. My
dad is Joseph Salvatore.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Yeah, okay, and then all the other Joe's in your
family have different middle names too.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
You oh what I was saying, Going back to what
I was saying, yeah and yes, the answer to that
is yes. Do you feel like when we have a kid,
do you want professional photos?
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Sorry, that is what you're talking about. I think I do.
Think it's nice. I actually did see her post the
professional photos, like of the moments right after she'd given
birth and like in their home with the baby, and
I had two thoughts. One, I was like, how does
she look so good? She just gave birth. I can't
(13:21):
imagine like being sweaty and exhausted and having like a
camera steck in my face. I think that would be
the last thing I would want. But at the same time,
like the photos are so beautiful and they capture like
a moment that you're only, yeah, like one of the
biggest moments of your life to have these like beautiful
photos to like look back on. Like I actually was like, wow,
(13:43):
Like that's actually a really good idea, Like that's so
special to have those. I agree, you know, Like it's
like I feel like you call the photographer and like,
all right, you got thirty seconds to get in here.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
I feel like it's one of those things that you
don't really want to do in the mob kind of
like why do we do this?
Speaker 1 (14:01):
But then once you get the product, you're like, I'm so.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Happy, Yes, one hundred percent. And I would imagine, like
I did click on the instagram of the girl who
took her photos, and I think she's like not a midwife,
but like all of her photos is like birth photos,
so it's like she would I would assume, have like
the etiquette and know kind of how to go about
(14:27):
it in a way that didn't feel overly invasive for sure.
The parents sure, So yeah, it was something I've literally
never thought about in my life. But I was like, oh,
maybe I would want to do that. I mean, like
the photos like have so much emotion in them, it
would be nice, Okay.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Joey and Kelsey Moving on. Moving on, Joey and Kelsey
reveal how couples counseling has made the relationship. Also, I
apologize I'm a little nasally, I apologize Joey Kelsey. Okay,
I think that's great. I think doing that, I honestly
I think it probably should almost be I don't want
(15:13):
to say mandatory, but I mean definitely should always be
an option, especially after an experience like this, because.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
They both have to watch the whole season back. Kelsey's
got to sit there and watch the person that she's
now engaged to have feelings for strong feelings for other women,
so she's got to work past all that.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
I mean, it's easy to just say, like, don't watch,
but like, of course you're still gonna watch, and even
if you don't watch, you know what happened, or you're
gonna hear from family friends or hear from social media,
which is even worse. So I think it's really great.
I think it's I think it's something that should the
leads should always do.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Yeah, I agree. I think we did not do couples
counseling after.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Pairs, but I'm essentially a counselor myself.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Sure, okay, you can tell yourself that.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
I mean, it's true you were things that you were
worried about. It I say it down, and I let you,
I let you talk and I whipped out my notepad.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
It No, that's not what happened at all, just spreading lies,
spreading so many lives. But I will say, like coming
off of Paradise, we had had like a lot, a
lot of time together to establish a foundation and like
figure out our communication styles and all of that, and
I would say we really needed that and leaned into
(16:34):
it for the first few months, probably up until like
after the finale, of just working through like the struggles
that come with coming off the show and navigating it
being a secret and then watching it back, Like watching
back the show both times is like a really unusual
experience because it really does put you back in a
moment that you lived months ago, and like all these
(16:58):
emotions come back, and then you've got to watch interviews
and all of this stuff. So it really is crazy.
But it coming off the Baucher and the Baucherette, like
whoever they end up, but they have not spent that
much time with like a minuscule amount compared to what
you get on Bachelor on Paradise, so you're really still
trying to figure each other out while watching the person
(17:18):
you're engaged to on TV publicly dating a bunch of
other people, and like in Kelsey's case, like a lot
of people were like, I hope Joe ends up with Maria,
I hope he ends up with Daisy, Like, I'm sure
that element is very difficult too, Whereas like, thankfully for
us on Paradise, like we were together the whole time,
I didn't have to like watch you date a bunch
of other people. So like, I really think it's like
(17:41):
the best thing you can do for your relationship coming
off of or Bauchlorette is do regular couple's therapy because
it's such an unusual experience for.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Show for show for show.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
I agree with that being said, Let let's move on
to fan questions. Question because we're running a little long
here because I did a little rant which I enjoyed.
Okayan question number one, You guys seem to take the
best trips.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Thank you, Thank you.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
You guys seem to take the best trips. What is
the next vacation you have planned?
Speaker 2 (18:20):
We actually don't have another vacation planned yet.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Oh nothing.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
We typically only take one vacation maybe two vacations a year.
One one, well, one big one. We actually went to
Miami for Valentine's Day.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
Yeah, so that's that's a trip.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
That's that's a vacation anything. What do you what do
you define as a vacation.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
I find a vacation.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
Okay, yeah, that's great, love this question. I I don't
find a vacation. Well, you know, because we travel, so
you know, growing up, I never I never really went
on vacation or took trips. But now you know, but
now lucky, been very lucky to be able to do that.
So I had to find like a trip to be
(19:04):
like a three four day thing somewhat to a place
that I've been multiple times. So like going to Miami,
going to Vegas, such as a quick trip. A vacation,
I consider it to be seven to ten days out
of the country.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
What a vacation is only an international trip to you? Yeah, wow,
I have a different definition. Yeah, So I would consider
a trip like it could be work related or typically
it's like work related, like we're going to La to
do something or trip, or if we're going home to
(19:44):
Chicago or Toronto. Not that we consider those like work
by any means, but usually those are like we're going
home to see our family, Yeah, We're going home to
like see our friends, we're going home for like a
bridal notification. A vacation to me is any time that
we go away that is strict something that we have planned,
paid for, organized for ourselves, just for pure enjoyment and adventure.
(20:09):
Like going to Miami for four days. We literally were
just like, let's go away, let's go lay by pool,
let's go out for some nice dinners and spend some
like really good quality time together in warm weather. That
is a vacation, even though it was like three four days. Exactly,
what do you mean exactly? I gave a totally different definition.
I do.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
I do agree with you, but I know I yeah,
I guess, I.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Feel like exactly, but it has to be out of America.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
No, yeah, yeah I could. So how would I consider
a vacation for us moving forward is seven days plus
out of the country.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Okay, good to know, well to answer this person's question.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
And we may not even do those every year, you know,
that might be a once and every three year.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Yeah, we usually. So far, we've done one vacation by
your definition a year. We did Spain our first year together,
and we did our honeymoon last year to Italy, and
then this year our hope is that we're going to
go to Asia, to Asia, specifically Japan and maybe a
few other stocks.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
But I've been to Japan, so I don't know if
that'll be a vacation for me.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Okay, But you're the one that wanted to go there.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
No, I still do.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Okay, I do too, and I hope we make it work.
We're thinking September, and I think it's a good year
for us to do it, and I'm I'm excited about
the potential because I've never been Okay, Okay, next question, Yeah,
how is it being married, lived together and working together
for the podcast? Do you get sick of each other?
I feel like this is a good question because we
(21:43):
literally do everything together and I'm not loving look on
your face right now, so wipe that shit off.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Do you ever get sick of me?
Speaker 2 (21:52):
I actually don't know. Wow, I don't get sick of you,
which is something I realized early on in our relationship
and I was like, this is a huge green flag
for us and our future together because I think that
you can be very in love with someone and have
an amazing relationship, but it doesn't mean you can spend
all your time with them, which is okay, like, I
think there's a lot of people in long successful marriages
(22:13):
that are like, I need my space and I need
my alone time, and I just feel like you and
I aren't really like that. But do you agree with me?
I'm feeling super vulnerable right now.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
No, I do.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
I do agree with you, and I think but like,
we do do everything together, but we also do things separately. Yeah,
And it's never like a thing like you went at
dinner last night.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
I went and did my thing.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
I go to the gym, but usually by myself.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Yeah, or like you have things that you do with
your friends, yeah, where it'll be like, yeah, go to
your thing.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
I'm going to say, take a Vegas trip with my friends.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
But yeah, no, I don't. I don't. I don't. I
don't ever get sick.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
There's never a time where I'm like, oh, I need
to anita a guys night Well, actually a guys night
out's different because it's just something that's just it's not
that I'm sick of you.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
It's just like I haven't done that in a while. Yeah,
but I'm never.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Yeah, Like thereover be times when I'm like I it's
not that I want to get away from you, but
like a night out for dinner with you is not
the same and not giving me the same thing as
like a night out with my girlfriends U. And I
think that it's important that we still have balance in
our lives and like invest in our outside relationships, and
I think that's why we don't get sick of each other.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
I also feel like if we answered this we're we
two get sick of each other, this whole podcast would
go away Differently.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
I don't think so, because I do think there's people
that would say, like, yes, like you know, like we're
kind of like that's why a lot of relationship ended
during COVID. Yeah, it was like I'm together with this
person twenty four to seven now and I'm realizing like
I don't want to be, which is also very normal.
I think it's normal to get sick of your partner,
especially with the way we live where it's like we
(24:00):
live together, we both work from home, we both work
on this podcast, Like it would not be weird if
we were like, yeah, sometimes we get a little sick
of each other. I agree, but we're very fortunate that
we don't. And I think that's why we can work
together and live the way we do show the show.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Okay, Serena, name one thing that Joe does that annoys you.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
Okay, let me think about this one, because they can't. Well,
it used to be that you would put your dishes
in the sink and not the dishwasher. But you actually
have worked on that a lot. You don't really do
it as much anymore.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
I know. Well.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
The thing that also used to annoy me that doesn't
really because you don't do it as much anymore, is
if you would go to bed without telling me that
you were going to bed.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
I said that last night.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
No, you text me and said that you were going
to bed. I hate it, I really hate it. Like
I hate it in a way that like it's comical,
it's not like a real problem in our relationship, but
like genuinely, like if we're both sitting there reading our
books together and Joe like shuts his book, puts it
on his bedside table, turns off his light, and lays
(25:16):
down to go to sleep, that's an absolute no. That
is so makes me so mad. My my blood is
boiling just thinking about that.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
I wake up.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
I've always like, what do you think you're doing? I
don't care if you go to bed first, but you
have to say, hey, I'm going to sleep, good night,
And sometimes I'm be like, I want to go to
sleep too, So why don't we just go to sleep
initiate sleep boat together versus me look over and see
your back while you're snoring.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
That's so hard to because I do, I too.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
I hate it.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
I do joy.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
I feel crazy saying it like it's such But there's
really not much that bothers me, but that one really does.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
That is a ball buster, and I do kind of
enjoy you do it. I'm her sure, I do enjoy
busting street up balls, but if I do it at night,
I know she gets all worked up and that's going
to screw up the sleep.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
So yeah, because then you start laughing and that we're awake.
But no, But last night I went out to dinner
with Abigail and Chelsea and you text me and said, hey,
I'm going to bed, which I really appreciated. But I said, okay,
I'm on my way home, meaning I was going to
be home in ten minutes, so I thought that you
might wait up for me. Came home, lights her out,
Joe's horizontal asleep in bed.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
That's crazy, though, that's crazy because you you were out late.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
No, I was okay with it. I was like, this
is understandable. I mean I got home at like midnight,
but I did wake you up. I wanted to chat.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Yeah, you woke me up.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
What I hadn't seen you all night. I wanted to
to chitty chat about our evenings and see how yours
was and tell you about mine.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Do you think if you two had met when you
were in high school that you would have ended up together?
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Yeah, I'm maybe. No, I don't know. It's hard to know.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Like you, I was basically I've been basically the same
person my whole life.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
I have.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
I would say if you met me in high school,
I'd be the same as I am now. But you,
I think have changed a lot. Yeah, over the course
of your life.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
Definitely.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
Like even if I met you at twenty five and
we were both twenty five, I don't know, I was thirty.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Yeah, so yeah, definitely.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
I don't know either. I mean, like, I think we
always would have like clicked and had chemistry, but I
don't know if we would have worked out. I think
for our relationship to work out, we kind of had
to meet in the stages of life that we were
at when we met one another.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
Yeah, would you guys ever renew your vows? No?
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Saying my vows one of the most anxiety provoking experiences
of my life, and I'm surprised I got through it
the first time. Yeah, that's but maybe you know what,
maybe in like twenty years we could do something like
private and intimate and special just like for us, Like
I wouldn't necessarily want to like do it in front
of a whole bunch of people, but there's other ways
(28:03):
we could go about it. I think it's nice to
like do romantic things throughout your marriage, throughout the years.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
If you had never gone on The Bachelor.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
Joe's like, no fucking comment.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
If you had ever gone on the Bachelor or the Bachelorette,
where do you think you'd be now? Each of us?
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Oh, you go first.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
I think I would probably be in Chicago, probably in
the grocery produce business, doing something of the sort.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Miserable.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Oh my god, horrible. Thank god you went on the show.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
I know.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
I mean I was working in pr when I went
on the show, but I really wanted to get into events.
I was doing PR eight because I liked it be
because it was COVID times and there was no events
to work for, So I would probably have down my
way into a career in events, living in Toronto, working
a nine to five, doing like what all my friends
(29:08):
are doing. You know, it's pretty easy to see what
my life would have looked like because I was young
when I went on the show, and all my friends
were kind of on a similar trajectory as I was
at the time, and they've all kind of ended up
in a place where I think I probably would have
ended up if I hadn't got on the show.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
If you were to get a pet, what would it be?
Speaker 2 (29:26):
It would be a little doggie. Because we have a
small apartment and we travel so much. We would need
a dog that we could bring around with us and
a dog that doesn't shed, because I just I don't
think I could emotionally handle a dog that shads. Yeah,
do you agree?
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (29:47):
Like a little like if you see Natasha's dog. That
would be what we would get.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
Yeah. Do you want children someday?
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Yes? I believe we do.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
What do you mean you believe we do? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (30:00):
We want children. We're living our best ink life, right
now dual income, no kids, but she would no, yeah, no.
All I think about when I see you by the
dozen is how expensive it would be to have twelve kids.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
And last one? If you won the lottery tomorrow. What's
the first thing you would buy?
Speaker 2 (30:25):
I would buy a lawyer who specializes in wealth management. Wow,
I would have them on salary. Well, depends on how
much you win. You know, how much is it? You know?
Are we talking five thirty million?
Speaker 1 (30:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Yeah, I would. I would get a lawyer on staff immediately.
Who would you do?
Speaker 1 (30:49):
I would buy a bitcoin?
Speaker 2 (30:50):
Yeah, that's what I would expect. But if we're talking
about like an actual physical material purchase, probably property.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
My answer states the same bitcoin.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Bitcoin you wouldn't want to get like a place in Chicago,
a place in Toronto, place in New York, a place.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
I would do that, but the first thing, yeah, not
the last thing.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
We wouldn't see a dollar of that money. It'll be
in bitcoin.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Well, honestly, that's it for the episode about your happy Hour.
Thank you guys so much for sending in your questions.
This has been a lot of fun. I hope you
enjoyed this episode as much as I did.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
And we will be back with some interviews that are
not about us, that are about some of your Bachelor
Nation favorites. Coming up in the next few weeks as
we anticipate gen season of the Bacherette, so be sure
to subscribe and stay tuned.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Thanks again bye,
Hey, everyone, welcome back to Battery half the Hour.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
I'm Joe and I'm Serena and this is.
Speaker 1 (00:06):
Fan Question is Part two. We are back for part
two of our episode.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
We are answering all the questions we love Harry from
you guys. It's always some of our favorite podcasts to
deal and honestly the easiest because we.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Just talked about ourselves the whole time. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Who doesn't love to do that, you guys.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
I'd like the audience is interviewing us, you know.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
I know they're doing our job for a minute. Yeah right,
But before we do, we are now gonna break down
some Bachriination news, which is what I used to do.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Back you know what, when you did Clickbait, I would
listen to pretty much every single episode and I always
liked it.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
I knew you were a fan.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
I was a fan. I was a fan of you. Well,
I started listening after we got together, if I'm being
totally honest.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
But.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
I always thought bacher Nation News with you, Natasha and
Tia was like the best part. I thought it was
so fun.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Yeah, we haven't done it forever. I used to kind
of sit back in the wings and let Natasha talk.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
About it, so I know, vote no Natasha here today,
and I'm not going to be doing that. So step up, Joey,
step up.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
First one, Gabby and girlfriend Robbie talk about moving in
together and discuss a queer bachelorette.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
I mean, they've been together for almost a year now.
I think I'm trying to think when the relations I
think it was last spring, Yeah, because I remember Rachel
Rekia being like they had just started seeing each other
before she went to film Paradise and she made a
joke like I wouldn't have been surprised if, like I
came back and they were like married, Like they were
obsessed with each other right away.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Yeah, when we went to La and went paintballing with Gabby,
I feel like she was already low key in that relationship.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
That was what in end of May of last year. Yeah, yes, yes, yes,
we didn't know about it at the time, but she
was already seeing Robbie and then she announced it. I
don't know, like June, I think, I don't know. I
don't know, but around this time moving.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
In together, though, I would say moving in together is
the biggest step in a relationship besides having a child.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
I would agree.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
It's just as big as getting married, like moving in together.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
I mean, getting married is massive change. Yeah, people, both
people's line.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Getting married is a big commitment. But like, at the
end of the day, it doesn't change at least for us,
it did not change the structure of our relationship or
our day to day. I mean, it definitely changed the
fact that we're committed to each other for life. But
like I mean, at the end of the day, we
could get divorced. Yea, there's an option. And also if
(02:52):
you live with someone it's for like two to three years,
you're totally considered common law married. Yeah, so like there's
still like.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
A yeah, an attachment that what you said, it's it is.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
It changes kind of how you operate out a day
to day. Yes, because now there's somebody in your space.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Yeah, one hundred percent, you're sharing your home with another person.
It does, and you're seeing this person way more. You're
having to like compromise and like navigate how you live together,
which if you don't live together, if you don't live
in similar ways, it can create problems.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I love how we just explained what it is to
move so much like.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
For those of you that don't know this is what
it means when two people move in together.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
It's oh my gosh, but yeah, no it is.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
I think it's just a mess.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
It's a big step. It's like our relationship probably changed
more when we moved in together than when we got married.
And then I think, obviously, I think having kids is
probably the biggest, the biggest change. But happy for them.
That's amazing, love that they're they're moving together. I feel
like from social media it looks like they're together, like
twenty four to seven. Anyway, I kind of already thought
(04:16):
they lived together. But I'm glad that they're doing well
and they're taking this step. Every time I see them
on our screens or on social they just seem very
happy and in love, which is wonderful.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
And then they discuss a queer bachelorette.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
When I was probably too young to be watching this.
I was at a friend's house. I wasn't even watching
like the Battery at it this time, but I remember
they did like Tila Tequila's Search for Love, Do you
remember that? And they had like girls and guys. That's
the closest thing in the US I've ever seen to
(04:51):
like a queer dating show or someone as the lead
of a dating show from the LGBTQ plus community. One
of my best friends who is gay, he was like,
a gay bopsler would never work because you would have
one male lead and then just a house full of
men that are all attracted to one another.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
I still don't know why they haven't, well, like, why
haven't we done that? Like that?
Speaker 2 (05:17):
That would be I feel like it have to be
like Paradise, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Want that because honestly, that adds so much drama. I mean, wait,
could you imagine at the end when the.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
Lead is ready to propose to a person and then
that person's like, hey, listen, also like you're not the
only one that hooked up with Jeffrey.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
I Also, I was like what and then he can't?
Like could he even get mad? Because like if the
lead gets bad, it's like, well, like but you did
it too.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
It would be wild.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
I think they would have to create a unique structure
or like an adjustment in the rule book if they
were to do a queer lead. But I think it
would be fun. I think it's something they should explore.
I mean, they have had certain like aspects of representation
through the show. But like they've had people on the show,
(06:14):
like contestants that are openly bisexual. They've had people come
out and say, you know that they're gay, but they've
never had someone on the show like as the lead
at that time.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Yeah, okay, uh moving on Blake Horsemen in Giannina from
Love Is Blind.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Just had a baby.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
I know, I think the baby looks so much like her,
like the eyes, Like she has these really beautiful, big,
like almond shaped eyes, and I feel like the baby
like looks so much like her.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
I never think babies look like anyone until they until
they start hitting like the three Yeah, two three year
old age.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
You're not wrong because like, but you can kind of
pinpoint like certain features.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
I don't know, I always feel like it's a stretch.
Maybe I always feel like it to show. When I
see like like like one month old, I'm like, they
don't look like anyone except like the other one month.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Old, even like your cousin's baby. Yeah, when he was born,
you were like, oh my god, he looks so much
like the mom your cousin, And now that he's like two,
everyone's like, no, he looks like the dad.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Yeah, I I I yeah, I don't know. I don't know.
I just don't.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
I think I think babies all look just like babies.
I don't think they look like their parents.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Okay, you think they like grow into.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
It and they're growing. And I think everyone that says that,
I think they're just wrong.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Okay, it's fo Yeah, I just think it's a stretch
maybe a little bit. Yeah, but I think it's just
fun to speculate.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Also, Oh, also, like I don't I don't judge, like
I like, everyone's not everyone sees must see the same thing.
Because there's people that have said, like, I look like
someone and I'll be like or like I'll like a
friend looks like like a like an actor or something. Yeah,
(08:21):
that's not even like close, like like no, like I
don't look like this person or this No, like you're
not even close, Like how is this what you see?
Speaker 2 (08:32):
I mean, yeah, I think appearance is somewhat subjective.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Effect. Like some people have cilantro and they love it.
I don't know if anyone really loves cilantro.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
I like cilantro, but do you love it? Love's a
strong word. I don't know if there's any herb that
I love.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
But some people eat cilantro and it tastes like soap.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Yeah, but that's a genetic thing.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Yeah, And that's why I think maybe maybe with some
people's like vision, it's like you may, I don't know,
maybe some features stand out more to you.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
That has to be no way we all no way,
the entire well, it's just just let's just call it
the United States. No way, the entire United States looks
at Serena Pitt and sees the same face I see.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Why not you think, I'm like, I'm just telling you
that's transforming.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
I just I don't think people see everyone for what
everyone sees them as. Does that make sense?
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Kind of?
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Because I'm just telling you because there are people that
have compared you to a certain person, and I'll look
at the person they're comparing you to and be like,
that's not even No, that's not what she's not what
I see, that's not what she looks like. And I
so the only way that this makes that I can
make this make sense to me is the ciladral fact.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
But I also think, like when you receive not just you,
like when people perceive someone's looks, there's so many factors
that go into it, like you knowing. I think personality
plays a big factor in how attractive or unattractive people
view other people. Do you know what I mean? Like
(10:18):
I think like and I think but yeah, if we're
just talking straight up features like physical features, I don't know.
I think you're not wrong, Like I think that, like
you might look at me and be like, oh, because
she has like dark hair and this color skin, she
looks like this person. But then if you break down
like features, maybe I don't. I don't know, I know
(10:40):
what you're saying.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
I just want to bring it back that this topic
is about Blake and Right.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
And their child and their new room baby. So happy
for them. The baby's name is Heath, Heath, I forget
the middle name Heath something horsemen, do.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
You feel like it is now.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Something that has you have to do if you are
someone that has a social media following, take professional photos
when you have a kid.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Quick pause. The baby's name is Heath Orion or O'Ryan. Okay, horseman.
The middle name is beout O R I O N.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
What happened to Joe or Jeff?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
What do you mean you don't like the name Heath?
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Get me just navy?
Speaker 2 (11:29):
Yeah, let's go literally half your.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
Family Joe, Jim or Jeff or John, Mike.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
You're just naming one syllable white boy names. We won't
be naming our kid any of those.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Name our kid Joey.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
No, we're not, Yeah, Joey. The thing is, I'm like
quaking right now because I know your dad's listening to
this podcast, being like, what's wrong with the name Joe.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
No, we're gonna name our daughter Mittilda.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Already said that, saying that literally since we met.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
What was I just talking about though.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
The name Heath and how people should just.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
Name no, no, No, I was talking about something before
some of them before Heath.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Oh, yeah, sorry, I did cut you off. I'm sorry.
I don't remember what you were saying. But I don't
have a middle name, so I'm indifferent on giving our
kid a middle name.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
Yeah, I don't. I don't think the kid needs a
middle name. The only reason I feel like I even
have a middle name is because my father and I
have the same name. Yes, and his father and so,
and that's the only thing. That's the only way you're
a junior is if you have the same whole name.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Oh, so you're technically not a I'm you're just another Joe.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
I'm just yeah, I'm Joseph. You're Joseph, Joseph Anthony. My
dad is Joseph Salvatore.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Yeah, okay, and then all the other Joe's in your
family have different middle names too.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
You oh what I was saying, Going back to what
I was saying, yeah and yes, the answer to that
is yes. Do you feel like when we have a kid,
do you want professional photos?
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Sorry, that is what you're talking about. I think I do.
Think it's nice. I actually did see her post the
professional photos, like of the moments right after she'd given
birth and like in their home with the baby, and
I had two thoughts. One, I was like, how does
she look so good? She just gave birth. I can't
(13:21):
imagine like being sweaty and exhausted and having like a
camera steck in my face. I think that would be
the last thing I would want. But at the same time,
like the photos are so beautiful and they capture like
a moment that you're only, yeah, like one of the
biggest moments of your life to have these like beautiful
photos to like look back on. Like I actually was like, wow,
(13:43):
Like that's actually a really good idea, Like that's so
special to have those. I agree, you know, Like it's
like I feel like you call the photographer and like,
all right, you got thirty seconds to get in here.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
I feel like it's one of those things that you
don't really want to do in the mob kind of
like why do we do this?
Speaker 1 (14:01):
But then once you get the product, you're like, I'm so.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Happy, Yes, one hundred percent. And I would imagine, like
I did click on the instagram of the girl who
took her photos, and I think she's like not a midwife,
but like all of her photos is like birth photos,
so it's like she would I would assume, have like
the etiquette and know kind of how to go about
(14:27):
it in a way that didn't feel overly invasive for sure.
The parents sure, So yeah, it was something I've literally
never thought about in my life. But I was like, oh,
maybe I would want to do that. I mean, like
the photos like have so much emotion in them, it
would be nice, Okay.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Joey and Kelsey Moving on. Moving on, Joey and Kelsey
reveal how couples counseling has made the relationship. Also, I
apologize I'm a little nasally, I apologize Joey Kelsey. Okay,
I think that's great. I think doing that, I honestly
I think it probably should almost be I don't want
(15:13):
to say mandatory, but I mean definitely should always be
an option, especially after an experience like this, because.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
They both have to watch the whole season back. Kelsey's
got to sit there and watch the person that she's
now engaged to have feelings for strong feelings for other women,
so she's got to work past all that.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
I mean, it's easy to just say, like, don't watch,
but like, of course you're still gonna watch, and even
if you don't watch, you know what happened, or you're
gonna hear from family friends or hear from social media,
which is even worse. So I think it's really great.
I think it's I think it's something that should the
leads should always do.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Yeah, I agree. I think we did not do couples
counseling after.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Pairs, but I'm essentially a counselor myself.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Sure, okay, you can tell yourself that.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
I mean, it's true you were things that you were
worried about. It I say it down, and I let you,
I let you talk and I whipped out my notepad.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
It No, that's not what happened at all, just spreading lies,
spreading so many lives. But I will say, like coming
off of Paradise, we had had like a lot, a
lot of time together to establish a foundation and like
figure out our communication styles and all of that, and
I would say we really needed that and leaned into
(16:34):
it for the first few months, probably up until like
after the finale, of just working through like the struggles
that come with coming off the show and navigating it
being a secret and then watching it back, Like watching
back the show both times is like a really unusual
experience because it really does put you back in a
moment that you lived months ago, and like all these
(16:58):
emotions come back, and then you've got to watch interviews
and all of this stuff. So it really is crazy.
But it coming off the Baucher and the Baucherette, like
whoever they end up, but they have not spent that
much time with like a minuscule amount compared to what
you get on Bachelor on Paradise, so you're really still
trying to figure each other out while watching the person
(17:18):
you're engaged to on TV publicly dating a bunch of
other people, and like in Kelsey's case, like a lot
of people were like, I hope Joe ends up with Maria,
I hope he ends up with Daisy, Like, I'm sure
that element is very difficult too, Whereas like, thankfully for
us on Paradise, like we were together the whole time,
I didn't have to like watch you date a bunch
of other people. So like, I really think it's like
(17:41):
the best thing you can do for your relationship coming
off of or Bauchlorette is do regular couple's therapy because
it's such an unusual experience for.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Show for show for show.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
I agree with that being said, Let let's move on
to fan questions. Question because we're running a little long
here because I did a little rant which I enjoyed.
Okayan question number one, You guys seem to take the
best trips.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Thank you, Thank you.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
You guys seem to take the best trips. What is
the next vacation you have planned?
Speaker 2 (18:20):
We actually don't have another vacation planned yet.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Oh nothing.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
We typically only take one vacation maybe two vacations a year.
One one, well, one big one. We actually went to
Miami for Valentine's Day.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
Yeah, so that's that's a trip.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
That's that's a vacation anything. What do you what do
you define as a vacation.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
I find a vacation.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
Okay, yeah, that's great, love this question. I I don't
find a vacation. Well, you know, because we travel, so
you know, growing up, I never I never really went
on vacation or took trips. But now you know, but
now lucky, been very lucky to be able to do that.
So I had to find like a trip to be
(19:04):
like a three four day thing somewhat to a place
that I've been multiple times. So like going to Miami,
going to Vegas, such as a quick trip. A vacation,
I consider it to be seven to ten days out
of the country.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
What a vacation is only an international trip to you? Yeah, wow,
I have a different definition. Yeah, So I would consider
a trip like it could be work related or typically
it's like work related, like we're going to La to
do something or trip, or if we're going home to
(19:44):
Chicago or Toronto. Not that we consider those like work
by any means, but usually those are like we're going
home to see our family, Yeah, We're going home to
like see our friends, we're going home for like a
bridal notification. A vacation to me is any time that
we go away that is strict something that we have planned,
paid for, organized for ourselves, just for pure enjoyment and adventure.
(20:09):
Like going to Miami for four days. We literally were
just like, let's go away, let's go lay by pool,
let's go out for some nice dinners and spend some
like really good quality time together in warm weather. That
is a vacation, even though it was like three four days. Exactly,
what do you mean exactly? I gave a totally different definition.
I do.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
I do agree with you, but I know I yeah,
I guess, I.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Feel like exactly, but it has to be out of America.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
No, yeah, yeah I could. So how would I consider
a vacation for us moving forward is seven days plus
out of the country.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Okay, good to know, well to answer this person's question.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
And we may not even do those every year, you know,
that might be a once and every three year.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Yeah, we usually. So far, we've done one vacation by
your definition a year. We did Spain our first year together,
and we did our honeymoon last year to Italy, and
then this year our hope is that we're going to
go to Asia, to Asia, specifically Japan and maybe a
few other stocks.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
But I've been to Japan, so I don't know if
that'll be a vacation for me.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Okay, But you're the one that wanted to go there.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
No, I still do.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Okay, I do too, and I hope we make it work.
We're thinking September, and I think it's a good year
for us to do it, and I'm I'm excited about
the potential because I've never been Okay, Okay, next question, Yeah,
how is it being married, lived together and working together
for the podcast? Do you get sick of each other?
I feel like this is a good question because we
(21:43):
literally do everything together and I'm not loving look on
your face right now, so wipe that shit off.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Do you ever get sick of me?
Speaker 2 (21:52):
I actually don't know. Wow, I don't get sick of you,
which is something I realized early on in our relationship
and I was like, this is a huge green flag
for us and our future together because I think that
you can be very in love with someone and have
an amazing relationship, but it doesn't mean you can spend
all your time with them, which is okay, like, I
think there's a lot of people in long successful marriages
(22:13):
that are like, I need my space and I need
my alone time, and I just feel like you and
I aren't really like that. But do you agree with me?
I'm feeling super vulnerable right now.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
No, I do.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
I do agree with you, and I think but like,
we do do everything together, but we also do things separately. Yeah,
And it's never like a thing like you went at
dinner last night.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
I went and did my thing.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
I go to the gym, but usually by myself.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Yeah, or like you have things that you do with
your friends, yeah, where it'll be like, yeah, go to
your thing.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
I'm going to say, take a Vegas trip with my friends.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
But yeah, no, I don't. I don't. I don't. I
don't ever get sick.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
There's never a time where I'm like, oh, I need
to anita a guys night Well, actually a guys night
out's different because it's just something that's just it's not
that I'm sick of you.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
It's just like I haven't done that in a while. Yeah,
but I'm never.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Yeah, Like thereover be times when I'm like I it's
not that I want to get away from you, but
like a night out for dinner with you is not
the same and not giving me the same thing as
like a night out with my girlfriends U. And I
think that it's important that we still have balance in
our lives and like invest in our outside relationships, and
I think that's why we don't get sick of each other.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
I also feel like if we answered this we're we
two get sick of each other, this whole podcast would
go away Differently.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
I don't think so, because I do think there's people
that would say, like, yes, like you know, like we're
kind of like that's why a lot of relationship ended
during COVID. Yeah, it was like I'm together with this
person twenty four to seven now and I'm realizing like
I don't want to be, which is also very normal.
I think it's normal to get sick of your partner,
especially with the way we live where it's like we
(24:00):
live together, we both work from home, we both work
on this podcast, Like it would not be weird if
we were like, yeah, sometimes we get a little sick
of each other. I agree, but we're very fortunate that
we don't. And I think that's why we can work
together and live the way we do show the show.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Okay, Serena, name one thing that Joe does that annoys you.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
Okay, let me think about this one, because they can't. Well,
it used to be that you would put your dishes
in the sink and not the dishwasher. But you actually
have worked on that a lot. You don't really do
it as much anymore.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
I know. Well.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
The thing that also used to annoy me that doesn't
really because you don't do it as much anymore, is
if you would go to bed without telling me that
you were going to bed.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
I said that last night.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
No, you text me and said that you were going
to bed. I hate it, I really hate it. Like
I hate it in a way that like it's comical,
it's not like a real problem in our relationship, but
like genuinely, like if we're both sitting there reading our
books together and Joe like shuts his book, puts it
on his bedside table, turns off his light, and lays
(25:16):
down to go to sleep, that's an absolute no. That
is so makes me so mad. My my blood is
boiling just thinking about that.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
I wake up.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
I've always like, what do you think you're doing? I
don't care if you go to bed first, but you
have to say, hey, I'm going to sleep, good night,
And sometimes I'm be like, I want to go to
sleep too, So why don't we just go to sleep
initiate sleep boat together versus me look over and see
your back while you're snoring.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
That's so hard to because I do, I too.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
I hate it.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
I do joy.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
I feel crazy saying it like it's such But there's
really not much that bothers me, but that one really does.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
That is a ball buster, and I do kind of
enjoy you do it. I'm her sure, I do enjoy
busting street up balls, but if I do it at night,
I know she gets all worked up and that's going
to screw up the sleep.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
So yeah, because then you start laughing and that we're awake.
But no, But last night I went out to dinner
with Abigail and Chelsea and you text me and said, hey,
I'm going to bed, which I really appreciated. But I said, okay,
I'm on my way home, meaning I was going to
be home in ten minutes, so I thought that you
might wait up for me. Came home, lights her out,
Joe's horizontal asleep in bed.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
That's crazy, though, that's crazy because you you were out late.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
No, I was okay with it. I was like, this
is understandable. I mean I got home at like midnight,
but I did wake you up. I wanted to chat.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Yeah, you woke me up.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
What I hadn't seen you all night. I wanted to
to chitty chat about our evenings and see how yours
was and tell you about mine.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Do you think if you two had met when you
were in high school that you would have ended up together?
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Yeah, I'm maybe. No, I don't know. It's hard to know.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Like you, I was basically I've been basically the same
person my whole life.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
I have.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
I would say if you met me in high school,
I'd be the same as I am now. But you,
I think have changed a lot. Yeah, over the course
of your life.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
Definitely.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
Like even if I met you at twenty five and
we were both twenty five, I don't know, I was thirty.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Yeah, so yeah, definitely.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
I don't know either. I mean, like, I think we
always would have like clicked and had chemistry, but I
don't know if we would have worked out. I think
for our relationship to work out, we kind of had
to meet in the stages of life that we were
at when we met one another.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
Yeah, would you guys ever renew your vows? No?
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Saying my vows one of the most anxiety provoking experiences
of my life, and I'm surprised I got through it
the first time. Yeah, that's but maybe you know what,
maybe in like twenty years we could do something like
private and intimate and special just like for us, Like
I wouldn't necessarily want to like do it in front
of a whole bunch of people, but there's other ways
(28:03):
we could go about it. I think it's nice to
like do romantic things throughout your marriage, throughout the years.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
If you had never gone on The Bachelor.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
Joe's like, no fucking comment.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
If you had ever gone on the Bachelor or the Bachelorette,
where do you think you'd be now? Each of us?
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Oh, you go first.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
I think I would probably be in Chicago, probably in
the grocery produce business, doing something of the sort.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Miserable.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Oh my god, horrible. Thank god you went on the show.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
I know.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
I mean I was working in pr when I went
on the show, but I really wanted to get into events.
I was doing PR eight because I liked it be
because it was COVID times and there was no events
to work for, So I would probably have down my
way into a career in events, living in Toronto, working
a nine to five, doing like what all my friends
(29:08):
are doing. You know, it's pretty easy to see what
my life would have looked like because I was young
when I went on the show, and all my friends
were kind of on a similar trajectory as I was
at the time, and they've all kind of ended up
in a place where I think I probably would have
ended up if I hadn't got on the show.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
If you were to get a pet, what would it be?
Speaker 2 (29:26):
It would be a little doggie. Because we have a
small apartment and we travel so much. We would need
a dog that we could bring around with us and
a dog that doesn't shed, because I just I don't
think I could emotionally handle a dog that shads. Yeah,
do you agree?
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (29:47):
Like a little like if you see Natasha's dog. That
would be what we would get.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
Yeah. Do you want children someday?
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Yes? I believe we do.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
What do you mean you believe we do? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (30:00):
We want children. We're living our best ink life, right
now dual income, no kids, but she would no, yeah, no.
All I think about when I see you by the
dozen is how expensive it would be to have twelve kids.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
And last one? If you won the lottery tomorrow. What's
the first thing you would buy?
Speaker 2 (30:25):
I would buy a lawyer who specializes in wealth management. Wow,
I would have them on salary. Well, depends on how
much you win. You know, how much is it? You know?
Are we talking five thirty million?
Speaker 1 (30:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Yeah, I would. I would get a lawyer on staff immediately.
Who would you do?
Speaker 1 (30:49):
I would buy a bitcoin?
Speaker 2 (30:50):
Yeah, that's what I would expect. But if we're talking
about like an actual physical material purchase, probably property.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
My answer states the same bitcoin.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Bitcoin you wouldn't want to get like a place in Chicago,
a place in Toronto, place in New York, a place.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
I would do that, but the first thing, yeah, not
the last thing.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
We wouldn't see a dollar of that money. It'll be
in bitcoin.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Well, honestly, that's it for the episode about your happy Hour.
