00:00:02
Speaker 1: Hey, Jonas.
00:00:26
Speaker 2: And that was our jingle. Love it. Love it. We kind of came up with that. Then it was turned into a song.
00:00:34
Speaker 3: You did it. We did it. We're songwriters.
00:00:37
Speaker 2: What can we say? All right, let's get to these voicemails. I'm dying to give some advice.
00:00:40
Speaker 3: Dying to give some advice that I shouldn't be giving.
00:00:42
Speaker 4: My name's Julia calling from New Hampshire. I was at your Manchester, New Hampshire show the week before Christmas. Had the best time. You guys always joke that you are not always qualified to give advice, but I have a question I think you're perfectly qualified for. I got divorced last year and that's okay. And pretty quickly after started seeing who had previously been a very close friend and I didn't really tell anyone, but it's been a year and now I still really haven't told.
00:01:16
Speaker 5: Anyone because I feel like I waited too long and I'm not really sure if I should like hard launch it or how to post it on social media because there's a lot of people who who still don't even know I got divorced in the first place, I'm looking for advice on how to handle relationships kind of being seen from the outside, which I know is something you're all familiar with.
00:01:37
Speaker 6: So can't wait to hear your advice.
00:01:39
Speaker 4: And thanks so much for this podcast. It makes me laugh every single time I put it on. Awesome.
00:01:44
Speaker 2: She's so sweet. So sweet. I love hearing that. I will say that before we get to the advice, a real moment here. We've been doing the podcast now for six years, six years. I think a few months, six months, six months, maybe give or take. Not, not, I think it's like two months. But my point is now that it's out in the world, I've seen some of the clips on Tik TOK and other places. It does bring me a lot of joy to know that this podcast that we started is bringing people joy.
00:02:15
Speaker 7: Totally.
00:02:15
Speaker 2: And it's fun for us. And I hope it continues to make people happy because it's all that we want to do. And now to the advice I have, will say that I think this is an obstacle a lot of people have to navigate. How do you post about your relationship online? What does that look like? Not just at the beginning, but during the relationship and otherwise. In this scenario, given that there's the divorce aspect and then the new relationship, I kind of feel like a simple, so here's a life update.
00:02:54
Speaker 8: Oh.
00:02:54
Speaker 1: Period.
00:02:54
Speaker 2: And it's like, I got divorced this, you know, last year. Like, you just kind of lay it out. But start it with the thing of like, hey, so here's a life update. And then people can be like, oh, yeah, wow. That's a lot of information. And it's their information to give. But it's not like it doesn't have to be like too, I don't know. You should chime in.
00:03:16
Speaker 9: Me.
00:03:17
Speaker 2: Everyone. I think it's all, I think it's great advice. Look, girl, are we trying to go viral?
00:03:22
Speaker 9: Oh.
00:03:22
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
00:03:23
Speaker 1: It's just a little fun idea. You could be like, I could see the concept and be like, so this funny thing happened with me and my friend. And it's like a slideshow or it's like a beautiful photo. It's like, we've been friends for so long. And then cut to, you know, it's like the last slide, they're in love.
00:03:41
Speaker 2: It's like, oh, and by the way, I got divorced. Oh, by the way, I am divorced. These are all jokes. We're joking. I mean, look, my real advice, that's my fun advice. Have fun with it. The real advice, I think, if you're happy, that's all that matters. If you're happy, be happy.
00:04:01
Speaker 1: And ultimately, if you're not trying to hurt the other party or if they're not necessarily in your life.
00:04:09
Speaker 3: That was good, Joe.
00:04:11
Speaker 2: I'm clocking that. Yeah. It's nice to be like, Keep your side of the street clean. Live your life. Be happy. Live your truth. Life is waste. I mean, of course, people will say, let's do short. Just be happy. But like, that's true.
00:04:25
Speaker 1: It's tough when you're like, oh, I got to hear from Aunt Carol that she's mad that I posted because she doesn't understand that people get divorced.
00:04:33
Speaker 2: That's weird. Well, Aunt Carol, live your life. I'll live mine. I'm happy. Hard launch that shit.
00:04:41
Speaker 1: Yeah.
00:04:41
Speaker 2: Give me a new soft launch, a little photo of hands holding, be like, DM me for details. Life update coming soon. Life update coming soon. But I'm happy.
00:04:48
Speaker 1: And if you're happy, which sounds like you're very happy, live your best life. And ultimately like trolls will troll even in the family dynamic.
00:04:56
Speaker 7: True.
00:04:57
Speaker 3: Or bring him to the concert next time we play and we'll help you hard launch it.
00:05:00
Speaker 5: Yeah.
00:05:01
Speaker 2: One side note about this too. I feel like New Hampshire is having a moment. Oh, it's big. It's heavy, right? Am I the only one that's, I'm like, I'm hearing a lot about New Hampshire right now.
00:05:11
Speaker 3: People in the Hamptons this last weekend were saying like, oh yeah, we're going to New Hampshire next weekend. They're talking about New Hampshire. Hamptons is talking about going to New Hampshire. So that's the thing. And I'm not really a Hamptons.
00:05:21
Speaker 2: Guy, so this is cool. It's getting whale belt, but.
00:05:24
Speaker 3: It is very whale belt.
00:05:26
Speaker 2: I have no idea what that means. It's getting popped Abercrombie collar. Oh, now I know what you're talking about. From there. Okay, next question. voicemail. Next voice. Hey, besties.
00:05:37
Speaker 8: So I really want to ask you guys about what you think of potlucks.
00:05:45
Speaker 6: This has been kind of an ongoing debate.
00:05:47
Speaker 8: Some people are really into them and like every single time they host people at their house, they want it to be a potluck. And then a couple of us are like, no, like if you're choosing to host, you know, it's your responsibility to provide food, whether it's pizza or just snacks, drinks, whatever. So what do you guys think of potluck? Like, is it a special events only like friends giving only situation? Wow.
00:06:14
Speaker 10: Wow.
00:06:14
Speaker 2: I love this question.
00:06:15
Speaker 3: This is a great question.
00:06:17
Speaker 2: I do not believe luck has a surprisingly literal origin that dates back to the 16th century England long before it became associated with neighborhood block parties in plastic containers. The literal meaning 1500s, the phrase originally referred to the luck of the pot is In medieval and Renaissance England, households would often keep a soup or stew pot constantly simmering on the hearth, sometimes called a perpetual stool. A stew, not stool. When an unexpected guest arrived at mealtime, they were invited to take potluck, meaning they would get whatever happened to be in the pot at the moment without any special preparation.
00:06:52
Speaker 1: I'm going to stop you there. This says a lot about her question. It originates from a surprise guest. A potluck shouldn't be like, Like, hey, everybody, I'm having a potluck tonight.
00:07:03
Speaker 2: Come by. It's like, bring something. It's like, girl.
00:07:07
Speaker 3: Well, I guess that's where the surprise comes into play.
00:07:08
Speaker 1: If I'm a surprise guest, I'd be like, hey, oh, grab a slice of pizza. I don't want to have to be like, make something at home and come to my party.
00:07:15
Speaker 2: Not every time. The whole concept is that you have this simmering thing. You don't know what's in it. You go and you test your luck with the pot. My point is... That's fun.
00:07:27
Speaker 1: I think also everybody can Uber Eats their own food or Postmates depending on who sponsors it.
00:07:31
Speaker 3: Group orders are great.
00:07:33
Speaker 2: I think make it a mystery.
00:07:35
Speaker 1: Mystery dessert.
00:07:36
Speaker 2: So here's my concept.
00:07:37
Speaker 3: I like it.
00:07:38
Speaker 2: We create like a container that conceals the identity of the food.
00:07:45
Speaker 3: Sounds like a TV show.
00:07:46
Speaker 8: Right?
00:07:47
Speaker 2: And you go and you or you can just wear a blindfold I guess too.
00:07:51
Speaker 3: I like it though.
00:07:52
Speaker 1: For a Christmas one year I got a charcuterie board for everybody that I loved It's a company and it's called Cocktutory Boards. It's in the shape of a phallic. I'll let you figure that out. That, however, a cocktutory board party could be fun.
00:08:07
Speaker 3: I have actually seen this where people bring like, you know, like a board, like a wooden board, like to a party, but it could be anything. So it's like meat and cheese. It's like cotton candy board. It's whatever.
00:08:20
Speaker 2: It's a board party.
00:08:21
Speaker 3: It's a board party. And you like line all the boards up.
00:08:23
Speaker 2: My opinion is, I'm going to.
00:08:25
Speaker 1: Drop some knowledge here, guys, because I have a lot of potluck knowledge. Because I've done this. I've had a couple potlucks in my day and lucky pots. I'd say, look, I think if this friend is constantly like, they're like, hey, we should do a potluck next Thursday and you guys are just coming off the heels of one on Friday. She'd be like, girl, can we just Uber Eats because this is getting out of hand. I don't have that many recipes.
00:08:48
Speaker 2: I agree.
00:08:49
Speaker 1: Somebody has their, somebody has their thing. And if you do that weekly, it's like, it's, it takes the excitement away.
00:08:54
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.
00:08:55
Speaker 3: I'm also like once a month, once a month, let's just have that.
00:08:57
Speaker 8: Okay.
00:08:58
Speaker 2: That's the advice. We're limiting the potluck to once a month, no more than that. That's it.
00:09:04
Speaker 3: I totally agree with you on that.
00:09:05
Speaker 5: All right.
00:09:06
Speaker 2: Next.
00:09:07
Speaker 7: Hey, this is Emily from Georgia. So I know all three of.
00:09:11
Speaker 8: You guys are dads.
00:09:13
Speaker 7: My husband and I have been married a few years, been together quite a few and, And we're at the point of having conversations about kids. So my question is, how did you guys know that you were ready to have kids? Or did you know you were ready? Or whatever that looked like. So how did you guys know that you guys were ready to be dads?
00:09:30
Speaker 9: Thanks.
00:09:31
Speaker 7: Have a good day.
00:09:31
Speaker 2: Hi, Emily. I'm George. George is also kind of having a moment.
00:09:35
Speaker 8: Oh.
00:09:37
Speaker 2: Nick disagrees. And I also disagree with myself, except Millie Bobby Brown has.
00:09:41
Speaker 3: A big farm.
00:09:42
Speaker 2: I would like to visit that.
00:09:43
Speaker 3: She has so many animals.
00:09:45
Speaker 1: I thought she was joking, but she does have a lot of animals. I think that's a very exciting time for you and your husband, Emily. Those conversations are very big conversations. Sounds like you guys are kind of at that point where you're in a relationship where you're like, all right.
00:10:00
Speaker 2: Are we ready? Is it time? Um, I think it's to answer your question. I feel like it's, it sounds weird, but it's a gut feeling.
00:10:08
Speaker 3: It's just like, Hey, You know what Danielle said? We had this conversation over the weekend, and she said to our friends, she said, the minute you start talking about having kids as a couple is when you're on the precipice of being ready for kids.
00:10:21
Speaker 1: Have you guys been testing out babies, Emily? Have you been holding babies recently? Sometimes you get baby fever, you know? Please don't ever say testing out babies.
00:10:28
Speaker 2: Well, I'm just saying. You know what I'm saying? You get what I mean, right?
00:10:33
Speaker 1: You're like holding one, and you're like, this feels right.
00:10:36
Speaker 2: This podcast is a bad idea. No, it feels great. I got to say, one of the most bizarre things when we were leaving the hospital with Malti Marie was the doctor said, okay, are you ready to take your baby home?
00:10:54
Speaker 4: Like, nope.
00:10:55
Speaker 2: And you're like, what? This is okay?
00:10:59
Speaker 3: Like, where's the manual?
00:11:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's like, the car seat is, you know, put in the car correctly.
00:11:06
Speaker 1: And you're not allowed to, at least in California, you can't, Like, no one can help you put the baby in the car seat.
00:11:12
Speaker 2: You have to, yeah, you have to. So then their last question is, are you ready to take your baby home? It's like, what happens if someone's like, I don't know. It's crazy, but it's a metaphor for a bigger thing, which is like, will you ever be ready? You just have to do it.
00:11:24
Speaker 3: Great question.
00:11:24
Speaker 2: That's the thing.
00:11:25
Speaker 1: A lot of friends who are thinking about this situation, Emily, guys and girls who are like, well, maybe this could be it.
00:11:34
Speaker 2: Maybe this, like, it's time.
00:11:36
Speaker 1: And I feel like to the core, it's like, as long as you and your partner, whatever your situation is, if you're having that combo.
00:11:44
Speaker 2: Between you guys and you get in the itch, test out some babies. Just kidding. I'm kidding.
00:11:54
Speaker 1: Obviously I think we're all saying like, if you're having the combo, it might be the answers there.
00:11:58
Speaker 2: You're, you're, um, digging my grave. Your cancel panic just now was so intense.
00:12:04
Speaker 1: Me?
00:12:05
Speaker 2: I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
00:12:05
Speaker 9: I'm good.
00:12:06
Speaker 2: Um, uh, Cancel away, kids.
00:12:08
Speaker 1: All right.
00:12:09
Speaker 2: Next up.
00:12:10
Speaker 3: Cancel Panic is the name of this episode.
00:12:13
Speaker 2: You can wear Cancel Panic pants. It's like an adult diaper.
00:12:17
Speaker 1: All right.
00:12:18
Speaker 2: Go ahead.
00:12:18
Speaker 1: Next one.
00:12:18
Speaker 2: Cancel Panic at the Disco.
00:12:21
Speaker 9: Hey, Jonas.
00:12:23
Speaker 6: This is Nicole from Los Angeles. I have a question. I'm getting married in March and I'm doing my bachelorette. A little bit early because we want to be able to go do the Vegas pool parties. But I'm curious to know if any of you had traditional bachelor parties. And if you did, where you went. And if you have any special memories that you want to share from one. Bye, guys.
00:12:44
Speaker 2: Okay, can I just say something? I feel like Los Angeles is having a moment. I was going to disagree. Have you guys heard of Los Angeles?
00:12:51
Speaker 3: Vegas apparently is having a moment.
00:12:53
Speaker 2: A traditional pool party. I like that she says it like that. Traditional.
00:12:56
Speaker 8: You know what?
00:12:56
Speaker 2: You make that sound so classy. I will tell you what.
00:12:58
Speaker 9: It ain't.
00:12:59
Speaker 2: It is so.
00:13:00
Speaker 8: It ain't.
00:13:00
Speaker 1: Sloppy and fun. And you better prepare yourself. I think you need to go all in, have the best time in Vegas.
00:13:07
Speaker 2: Go all out. But to answer your question, any stories? My bachelor party was in Ibiza. We did have bachelor parties, first of all. Joe was in Ibiza.
00:13:16
Speaker 1: Whoa.
00:13:17
Speaker 2: Here's a photo of Joe on his bachelor party. Yes, his shirt is torn.
00:13:22
Speaker 3: Yes, he has a crown of a 1942 on his head.
00:13:24
Speaker 2: It was a trip. We actually played a football soccer match in the Ibiza... team stadium. It was a hundred degrees and we were all brutally hungover.
00:13:36
Speaker 3: In the most Jonas Brothers thing we ever do though, we fly home from your bachelor party and went to eight straight hours of press.
00:13:44
Speaker 2: As it should be.
00:13:44
Speaker 4: It was great.
00:13:46
Speaker 2: My bachelor party was in the Bahamas. It was a great time. Here's a photo. For some reason I said we should all wear suits one night. It's always a better idea on paper. Yeah. And then Kevin had a bachelor party. But it was kind of cut short because what were we doing?
00:14:05
Speaker 3: We had to perform at the Disney Christmas Parade.
00:14:09
Speaker 2: You're so salty as you said that just now. I'm sorry. I'm going to rephrase.
00:14:14
Speaker 3: We got to fly to Orlando to perform for the Disney Christmas Parade.
00:14:19
Speaker 2: It was actually in Los Angeles or in California. But by the way, again, Los Angeles.
00:14:22
Speaker 5: No, it wasn't.
00:14:22
Speaker 3: It was in Orlando.
00:14:23
Speaker 2: It was in Orlando?
00:14:24
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:14:26
Speaker 2: Then we took you to the Giants game, which was fun.
00:14:28
Speaker 3: We took you to the Giants game, which was great.
00:14:29
Speaker 2: It's going to be so fun for her, by the way.
00:14:30
Speaker 3: I have zero photos from my trip.
00:14:31
Speaker 1: I'm so excited for her to go on this bachelorette party. You're going to have the best time.
00:14:35
Speaker 2: In Vegas, too? Which DJ are you going to see?
00:14:37
Speaker 3: Where should they go?
00:14:37
Speaker 2: We should probably go see Marshmello if he's on. But my advice would be.
00:14:43
Speaker 1: Give yourself some time, a couple hours between pool party and dinner. That means disco nap. Naps are important. So you're going to have some drinks, you're going to have some fun. have some snacks at the pool and you should leave by like five or 35. You should go take a nap for at least three hours. Another thing is like a steam and sauna situation really helps.
00:15:06
Speaker 2: Oh yeah. But you should go all out. It's me. A lot of fun. Have fun and have a great wedding.
00:15:11
Speaker 9: Totally.
00:15:11
Speaker 8: Okay.
00:15:13
Speaker 10: All right.
00:15:13
Speaker 2: Do we have more moss?
00:15:14
Speaker 10: My name is Darlene. I am from San Diego, California. My fiance and I are getting married December 22nd this year, and I am stuck in a super pickle. Not the pickles with Jolly Ranchers or whatever Tiffany Haddish was saying. But if you guys had to pick between one of your two songs to walk down the aisle to, my first option would be Love Bugs. which is my all-time favorite song, or I'd love you to have in the acoustic version. They both speak to us. They both speak to our relationship. I wanted to get you guys' advice on which one you guys would suggest.
00:15:50
Speaker 1: That's great.
00:15:51
Speaker 2: Congratulations.
00:15:52
Speaker 1: My vote's kind of love bug. I think, you know, as long as you don't get to the big, like, it should stop before the bridge. There's a guitar solo.
00:16:00
Speaker 3: Or not. And fireworks and a kiss. That'd be great.
00:16:03
Speaker 1: But they have to still do the whole ceremony before the kiss.
00:16:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, they do it after.
00:16:06
Speaker 1: They pick it back up. It's like, and then they kiss. There's a Love Bug jazz version. A Love Bug jazz version, huh?
00:16:18
Speaker 2: Yeah, which is.
00:16:19
Speaker 3: That's cool.
00:16:20
Speaker 2: Jazzy love. I would say Love Bug for sure. I think that's the quintessential Jonas Brothers song, and it's perfect for that environment. I agree with Joe. Maybe don't do that.
00:16:28
Speaker 3: Plus it's her favorite.
00:16:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Love Made to Heaven feels a little... A little high energy.
00:16:33
Speaker 3: She said the acoustic version, though. Which, I don't know, which version is that? Like, have you heard, I don't remember which one that is.
00:16:39
Speaker 2: You've not heard that version, Kev?
00:16:40
Speaker 3: I mean, like, I was there, so I'm sure.
00:16:41
Speaker 2: Of our song that we've released? Yeah.
00:16:44
Speaker 1: Oh, there's a, or you could do a, you know what, I just found a very suave Burning Up.
00:16:49
Speaker 3: There's actually the ones, the Bridgerton version of both songs. There you go.
00:16:55
Speaker 2: That's a good idea.
00:16:55
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:16:56
Speaker 2: You could do this.
00:16:57
Speaker 10: I am cold.
00:17:05
Speaker 2: It's giving wedding. Where's the creator? Shout her out.
00:17:10
Speaker 3: Shout out.
00:17:11
Speaker 2: Jade Grey. Love this version. I love it. Very emotional. Here's what we'll promise. I like it.
00:17:30
Speaker 3: Can she do love bug for her for her wedding? Let's see if we can make that happen.
00:17:33
Speaker 6: Jade Grey.
00:17:34
Speaker 2: Perform that version at your wedding. That'd be sick. That'd be amazing. Jade Gray, very talented. Shout out to Jade Gray. Let's hear another voicemail.
00:17:42
Speaker 11: My name is Nayemi.
00:17:43
Speaker 9: I am from Chicago. I am listening to your Hey Jonas podcast on my way to work. And I am just feeling really disillusioned.
00:17:52
Speaker 10: And burnt out.
00:17:53
Speaker 9: I am a primary care doctor. I work at a low-income sliding scale clinic. doing amazing work. I grew up in the neighborhood that I work in now, but I'm.
00:18:08
Speaker 6: Just, you know, I'm really burnt out.
00:18:10
Speaker 9: It is incredible work, but it is really exhausting. And I feel like lately with social media, primary care doctors have been painted in a very negative light. And, you know, I really went into this field because I wanted to help people and I wanted to be there, you know, for families. I've just been really struggling to get myself to get to work and you guys and your podcast just bring a lot of light into my mornings and, and make me feel a little bit more motivated to go to work. So thank you so much. And just wondering how you guys push through, you know, the burnout phase of, of doing something that you love, but you're just exhausted.
00:18:51
Speaker 3: Well, thank you so much for all of you that you do, uh, especially in the neighborhood that you grew up in. That's so cool. But at the same time, as you said, it can be tough and it can burn you out and, We need the doctors to stay strong because we need you out there. So thank you.
00:19:07
Speaker 1: Piggyback on you, Kev. Thank you so much for what you do. And I can only imagine it's got to be exhausting thing. We can even hear you in the car. It sounds like you're in traffic. This is like a stressful season. And also, you know, you're doing something amazing, not only for people, but also your community. And yeah, social media can be quite toxic as much as we can have fun with it and find things that inspire us and make us laugh.
00:19:33
Speaker 2: Mike has questioned things. I think it's also, look, we.
00:19:36
Speaker 1: We, our algorithms can easily put us into a lane of negativity and, um, we're sorry that's happening to you, but you do matter. And we really hope you, you find something that you can do for yourself. You'd, deserve a moment of like relief maybe deleting social media for a little while might help putting it on a timer or something on your phone could be like hey i'm only gonna check it like an hour a day or literally delete it for a month or two just to see how you feel or a week just to see if it brings some clarity but a little bit Treat yourself. Do something nice for yourself. Whether that's taking yourself out for dinner. I know that sounds weird. Doing something fun. Taking yourself to a movie. Reminding yourself that you are a person that needs care and love and you got to take care of that person because your work person and your person is different.
00:20:26
Speaker 3: You know what I'll do to help us out? We're going to have two tickets waiting for you just to say thank you for what you do. I'll make sure that happens.
00:20:32
Speaker 8: Nice.
00:20:33
Speaker 11: Love it.
00:20:34
Speaker 2: It's kind of moments like these where I feel like the thing that we do podcasts are our music and it seems so insignificant in comparison to the work that people are doing in the healthcare space and beyond serving their community and, and, um, helping people, you know, and, and so I want to say first, thank you for what you do. Um, please stay encouraged to, because to Kevin's point, um, We need our doctors to feel ready and willing and eager to go to work and to help people and save lives. We need to continue to encourage people whose jobs are not just important, but critical to society as a whole. So in whatever way we can be helpful in that, as insignificant as it feels to sit and just talk on a podcast or make a song. Um, thank you for allowing us that opportunity to, to bring some light into your world. And please know that we don't take it for granted and that, uh, we wear it as a badge of honor to, to get, to bring some, some light into your, your very intense worlds.
00:21:56
Speaker 11: Um, and on that note, Hey Jonas, this is Cheyenne over in Portland, Oregon. I was calling for some advice. My husband and I are celebrating our 14th wedding anniversary and, And I do not know what to get him. So maybe you can give me advice on what you guys think he would want. He's a pretty chill guy. He doesn't ask for a lot and, um, he's a really good dad of our two daughters. And so, yeah, I just want to give him something special or do something activity wise. So maybe you can give me some advice on that.
00:22:29
Speaker 3: I know exactly what you should get him. You should get an edible arrangement. From our actual new sponsor.
00:22:38
Speaker 9: Oh.
00:22:38
Speaker 2: Are we sponsored?
00:22:39
Speaker 3: They are official sponsored by Edible Arrangement. Look at this. Are you kidding me? I am not kidding.
00:22:46
Speaker 9: Yep.
00:22:47
Speaker 3: We did it, boys.
00:22:48
Speaker 2: The journey we've taken to get it. By the way, the perfect gift. The perfect gift for.
00:22:53
Speaker 10: Look at this.
00:22:54
Speaker 3: Who would not love this? Here you go. You did it.
00:22:57
Speaker 1: The gift that lasts about a couple days.
00:23:00
Speaker 3: And the kids will love it, too.
00:23:02
Speaker 2: The thought that lasts forever. The gift that actually lasts a few days.
00:23:05
Speaker 9: Nice.
00:23:05
Speaker 2: That's Kevin's slogan. Give us a breakdown of what you got going on. You got some chocolate-covered strawberries.
00:23:10
Speaker 3: Okay, so it definitely looks chocolate-covered strawberries.
00:23:12
Speaker 2: None of your sponsors. You should probably have a bite.
00:23:14
Speaker 3: Chocolate-covered marshmallows. And this is called the- Marshmallows, though.
00:23:18
Speaker 2: Marsho, bro.
00:23:19
Speaker 3: Marsho.
00:23:19
Speaker 2: Chocolate-covered marshmallows. Marsho.
00:23:23
Speaker 3: This is actually the Mocotini, so you should definitely- What does that mean?
00:23:26
Speaker 2: Is there coffee in there?
00:23:26
Speaker 3: This is the name of this beautiful thing.
00:23:28
Speaker 8: It's the Mocotini.
00:23:29
Speaker 3: Eat the marshmallow.
00:23:29
Speaker 2: Eat the marshmallow.
00:23:30
Speaker 1: As everybody knows, we are sponsored by Edible Arrangement. And we feel like you should get your husband an Edible Arrangement with something from his childhood. I think you should go nostalgic. He'll be like, oh my gosh, how did you find this? Go on eBay for like 30 bucks, depending on your budget. You can probably find like a toy he grew up with. He'll be like, call his mom or dad or cousin or uncle or auntie. Be like, yo, what did he play with a lot? And see if you can get that. You might be able to find the Hulk. Remember Hulk, the stretchy Hulk?
00:24:03
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
00:24:04
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was good.
00:24:05
Speaker 2: What was it called?
00:24:06
Speaker 3: I also like the new Game Boys that you got me, Joe, that have all the games on them. Those are cool.
00:24:10
Speaker 1: They are so good. I have in my room, I'm playing Pokemon right now. OG Pokemon.
00:24:15
Speaker 3: But for everybody asking, yes, this is the Mokatini, and you should order that.
00:24:18
Speaker 2: I think we should pull a question from this bowl.
00:24:22
Speaker 6: Got it.
00:24:23
Speaker 2: Bowl game time. What do you think is your biggest red flag?
00:24:30
Speaker 8: Oh.
00:24:30
Speaker 2: I'll start.
00:24:31
Speaker 3: I can be messy.
00:24:32
Speaker 2: Yes, you can.
00:24:33
Speaker 3: And I can be judgmental and also reactionary.
00:24:36
Speaker 1: Is that what it is?
00:24:37
Speaker 2: Well, sure.
00:24:38
Speaker 3: I'm working on it, guys. Working on it. We were away this weekend when I made our bed at our friend's house, like you did when you came to our house. It was so nice. Even Danielle mentioned. She goes, he made his, everything in his room is so put together.
00:24:50
Speaker 11: So nice.
00:24:50
Speaker 2: I was hoping she noticed. I'm not going to lie.
00:24:53
Speaker 3: She noticed.
00:24:54
Speaker 2: Okay. What's the red flag about you, Joe?
00:24:56
Speaker 9: I don't know.
00:24:57
Speaker 2: I thought we'd tell each other what the red flags were. Oh, Kevin's just telling us his, though. Yeah. What's mine, guys?
00:25:02
Speaker 3: I think that's more dangerous, though. I don't know. I don't want to do that.
00:25:05
Speaker 1: I think that's fun.
00:25:06
Speaker 2: I think it's fun. Like, you're annoying as fuck. That's true.
00:25:13
Speaker 6: Facts.
00:25:13
Speaker 3: You're, like, really handsome, and it's annoying.
00:25:15
Speaker 2: Oh, my wife's... Priyanka, what's my red flag? What's Joe's red flag? Like, what's my biggest red flag?
00:25:21
Speaker 3: You don't have any.
00:25:21
Speaker 2: There you go, Priyanka. Priyanka Chopra Jonas says.
00:25:23
Speaker 3: I don't have my red flag.
00:25:24
Speaker 9: Oh, Joe is.
00:25:26
Speaker 3: Are we really doing this? Are we actually going to tell each other our red flags?
00:25:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, go for it.
00:25:30
Speaker 3: What do we got? It's okay. I have no red flags too. You're the only person, not only person, you know every food place better than everybody else.
00:25:39
Speaker 2: Oh, that's annoying, yeah.
00:25:40
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
00:25:40
Speaker 6: Sorry.
00:25:41
Speaker 2: I'm bad at... Relinquishing control to others when making a plan. Yeah.
00:25:47
Speaker 1: I'll go to a city that either of you have been to.
00:25:48
Speaker 2: That I've lived in.
00:25:49
Speaker 10: And lived in.
00:25:50
Speaker 2: Literally lived in.
00:25:50
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you where we should go for dinner. That's... I'm getting better at that, but that's, you know.
00:25:56
Speaker 3: yeah i actually noticed that you are getting better at that actually like it's okay sometimes you gotta go with the flow guys okay nick gotta go um where do you want to start no i mean well it's just i'd probably say i would say maybe you're better at this but probably be okay with going with the flow like you're not you're not great at going with the flow letting somebody else have control yeah but in our world with so many voices all the time to like it can be.
00:26:22
Speaker 2: Tough because Also like when something annoys me, like I get like stuck on it. I can't.
00:26:27
Speaker 4: Yeah.
00:26:27
Speaker 1: You know, when like, it'll be water off my back. And for you, you'll be like, if somebody, if something, somebody says something, you're like, that was annoying. Nick would be like, my day's ruined.
00:26:37
Speaker 4: Yeah.
00:26:37
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:26:37
Speaker 2: You can't move on past that.
00:26:38
Speaker 1: I see.
00:26:39
Speaker 2: That could be about any situation. You get stuck. You picked one.
00:26:41
Speaker 3: What does it say?
00:26:42
Speaker 2: What's a childhood food or snack that you still think about? What is it? Diet Coke Zero you're on? No, it's a Coke Zero Summer. Dunkaroos.
00:26:52
Speaker 3: Love it.
00:26:53
Speaker 2: Dunkaroos. And remember the Red Baron focaccia with the four cheese that we put in the microwave after school?
00:27:00
Speaker 1: I will say Lunchables and Dunkaroos were and are still my favorite. There was a time they came back around.
00:27:09
Speaker 3: Nutty Buddies. Remember these?
00:27:10
Speaker 1: The wafer cookie that had chocolate?
00:27:13
Speaker 3: You could like pull them apart. I just had one for the first time in like 20 years. Maybe more yesterday. And my head was like.
00:27:22
Speaker 2: Kev, you got a question?
00:27:23
Speaker 3: Yeah, I pulled one. If you no longer had to sleep, how would you spend those extra eight hours?
00:27:29
Speaker 2: Play a lot of Fortnite.
00:27:31
Speaker 3: Actually, Nick, you just went through this unintentionally for like a couple months. So what'd you do with that extra eight hours? I can't sleep eight hours.
00:27:37
Speaker 1: I don't know.
00:27:38
Speaker 2: Eight hours is a dream, but yeah, it's not. It'd be amazing.
00:27:40
Speaker 1: I don't sleep eight hours. What's your sleep, Kev? What numbers are we getting?
00:27:45
Speaker 3: Seven to eight.
00:27:45
Speaker 2: Remember, he's got a fancy bed though.
00:27:48
Speaker 3: Oh, big update. We got a hamster.
00:27:50
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, we're about to get the hamster when I came to visit. What's the hamster's name?
00:27:53
Speaker 3: Yeah, we got the hamster. Hamster's name is River.
00:27:56
Speaker 11: River.
00:27:57
Speaker 2: Great name.
00:27:57
Speaker 3: That's a great name.
00:27:59
Speaker 2: I asked her, why River? She's like, I don't know. I was like, why not?
00:28:03
Speaker 5: Why not?
00:28:04
Speaker 2: That's great. I'm excited to hear the updates.
00:28:05
Speaker 3: She's so in love with this hamster, and all she does is Valentina, and she questions if it loves her every day.
00:28:12
Speaker 2: Don't we all?
00:28:13
Speaker 3: Do you think it loves me? Do you think it loves my mom?
00:28:16
Speaker 2: That is the life's biggest question. I would, well, I think I would probably... And I'd get super jacked.
00:28:23
Speaker 5: Okay. Yeah.
00:28:24
Speaker 2: Back to the eight hours of sleep. I'd have a lot more time to exercise.
00:28:28
Speaker 3: Four hours of extra workouts every day.
00:28:30
Speaker 1: I'm lucky if I get some time in. You've got kids. You've got life stuff.
00:28:35
Speaker 3: You guys are looking very vacated, and I'm really proud of you.
00:28:37
Speaker 2: Joe would like to read an excerpt from his new favorite book.
00:28:41
Speaker 1: This is Farts in the Wild by H.W.
00:28:44
Speaker 2: Schmelt. Okay, first tell the story of being on the plane and this book going off. This book is a gift to my daughters from Greg Garbowski and Paris Carney. And classically, like, unks, uncles and aunties, unks, unks and aunties.
00:28:59
Speaker 3: Unks and aunts.
00:29:00
Speaker 1: They don't think through some of these gifts. Like, I would be carrying them in my carry-on. And as I got up, I hit a button. There's your buttons here. And a loud toot blasted over first class. And everybody could hear. The sound of my fart. Book.
00:29:18
Speaker 2: Okay, let's leave our listeners with a nice excerpt. Tell me when to stop, Kev.
00:29:23
Speaker 10: Stop.
00:29:24
Speaker 2: The meerkat.
00:29:25
Speaker 1: Big mobs of meerkats live in sprawling networks of tunnels and chambers deep underground. With so many meerkats living together, a single meerkat fart can be amplified and funneled into powerful geishas of funk.
00:29:39
Speaker 7: Geishas.
00:29:40
Speaker 2: Thank you.
00:29:41
Speaker 1: The tunnels are like a big twisty city with holes that aren't just ways in and out. These holes help release the fart pressure before it blows.
00:29:50
Speaker 2: Let's hear the fart.
00:29:54
Speaker 1: Fantastic.
00:29:55
Speaker 2: On that note, buh-bye.
00:29:57
Speaker 3: Buh-bye.
Speaker 1: Hey, Jonas.
00:00:26
Speaker 2: And that was our jingle. Love it. Love it. We kind of came up with that. Then it was turned into a song.
00:00:34
Speaker 3: You did it. We did it. We're songwriters.
00:00:37
Speaker 2: What can we say? All right, let's get to these voicemails. I'm dying to give some advice.
00:00:40
Speaker 3: Dying to give some advice that I shouldn't be giving.
00:00:42
Speaker 4: My name's Julia calling from New Hampshire. I was at your Manchester, New Hampshire show the week before Christmas. Had the best time. You guys always joke that you are not always qualified to give advice, but I have a question I think you're perfectly qualified for. I got divorced last year and that's okay. And pretty quickly after started seeing who had previously been a very close friend and I didn't really tell anyone, but it's been a year and now I still really haven't told.
00:01:16
Speaker 5: Anyone because I feel like I waited too long and I'm not really sure if I should like hard launch it or how to post it on social media because there's a lot of people who who still don't even know I got divorced in the first place, I'm looking for advice on how to handle relationships kind of being seen from the outside, which I know is something you're all familiar with.
00:01:37
Speaker 6: So can't wait to hear your advice.
00:01:39
Speaker 4: And thanks so much for this podcast. It makes me laugh every single time I put it on. Awesome.
00:01:44
Speaker 2: She's so sweet. So sweet. I love hearing that. I will say that before we get to the advice, a real moment here. We've been doing the podcast now for six years, six years. I think a few months, six months, six months, maybe give or take. Not, not, I think it's like two months. But my point is now that it's out in the world, I've seen some of the clips on Tik TOK and other places. It does bring me a lot of joy to know that this podcast that we started is bringing people joy.
00:02:15
Speaker 7: Totally.
00:02:15
Speaker 2: And it's fun for us. And I hope it continues to make people happy because it's all that we want to do. And now to the advice I have, will say that I think this is an obstacle a lot of people have to navigate. How do you post about your relationship online? What does that look like? Not just at the beginning, but during the relationship and otherwise. In this scenario, given that there's the divorce aspect and then the new relationship, I kind of feel like a simple, so here's a life update.
00:02:54
Speaker 8: Oh.
00:02:54
Speaker 1: Period.
00:02:54
Speaker 2: And it's like, I got divorced this, you know, last year. Like, you just kind of lay it out. But start it with the thing of like, hey, so here's a life update. And then people can be like, oh, yeah, wow. That's a lot of information. And it's their information to give. But it's not like it doesn't have to be like too, I don't know. You should chime in.
00:03:16
Speaker 9: Me.
00:03:17
Speaker 2: Everyone. I think it's all, I think it's great advice. Look, girl, are we trying to go viral?
00:03:22
Speaker 9: Oh.
00:03:22
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
00:03:23
Speaker 1: It's just a little fun idea. You could be like, I could see the concept and be like, so this funny thing happened with me and my friend. And it's like a slideshow or it's like a beautiful photo. It's like, we've been friends for so long. And then cut to, you know, it's like the last slide, they're in love.
00:03:41
Speaker 2: It's like, oh, and by the way, I got divorced. Oh, by the way, I am divorced. These are all jokes. We're joking. I mean, look, my real advice, that's my fun advice. Have fun with it. The real advice, I think, if you're happy, that's all that matters. If you're happy, be happy.
00:04:01
Speaker 1: And ultimately, if you're not trying to hurt the other party or if they're not necessarily in your life.
00:04:09
Speaker 3: That was good, Joe.
00:04:11
Speaker 2: I'm clocking that. Yeah. It's nice to be like, Keep your side of the street clean. Live your life. Be happy. Live your truth. Life is waste. I mean, of course, people will say, let's do short. Just be happy. But like, that's true.
00:04:25
Speaker 1: It's tough when you're like, oh, I got to hear from Aunt Carol that she's mad that I posted because she doesn't understand that people get divorced.
00:04:33
Speaker 2: That's weird. Well, Aunt Carol, live your life. I'll live mine. I'm happy. Hard launch that shit.
00:04:41
Speaker 1: Yeah.
00:04:41
Speaker 2: Give me a new soft launch, a little photo of hands holding, be like, DM me for details. Life update coming soon. Life update coming soon. But I'm happy.
00:04:48
Speaker 1: And if you're happy, which sounds like you're very happy, live your best life. And ultimately like trolls will troll even in the family dynamic.
00:04:56
Speaker 7: True.
00:04:57
Speaker 3: Or bring him to the concert next time we play and we'll help you hard launch it.
00:05:00
Speaker 5: Yeah.
00:05:01
Speaker 2: One side note about this too. I feel like New Hampshire is having a moment. Oh, it's big. It's heavy, right? Am I the only one that's, I'm like, I'm hearing a lot about New Hampshire right now.
00:05:11
Speaker 3: People in the Hamptons this last weekend were saying like, oh yeah, we're going to New Hampshire next weekend. They're talking about New Hampshire. Hamptons is talking about going to New Hampshire. So that's the thing. And I'm not really a Hamptons.
00:05:21
Speaker 2: Guy, so this is cool. It's getting whale belt, but.
00:05:24
Speaker 3: It is very whale belt.
00:05:26
Speaker 2: I have no idea what that means. It's getting popped Abercrombie collar. Oh, now I know what you're talking about. From there. Okay, next question. voicemail. Next voice. Hey, besties.
00:05:37
Speaker 8: So I really want to ask you guys about what you think of potlucks.
00:05:45
Speaker 6: This has been kind of an ongoing debate.
00:05:47
Speaker 8: Some people are really into them and like every single time they host people at their house, they want it to be a potluck. And then a couple of us are like, no, like if you're choosing to host, you know, it's your responsibility to provide food, whether it's pizza or just snacks, drinks, whatever. So what do you guys think of potluck? Like, is it a special events only like friends giving only situation? Wow.
00:06:14
Speaker 10: Wow.
00:06:14
Speaker 2: I love this question.
00:06:15
Speaker 3: This is a great question.
00:06:17
Speaker 2: I do not believe luck has a surprisingly literal origin that dates back to the 16th century England long before it became associated with neighborhood block parties in plastic containers. The literal meaning 1500s, the phrase originally referred to the luck of the pot is In medieval and Renaissance England, households would often keep a soup or stew pot constantly simmering on the hearth, sometimes called a perpetual stool. A stew, not stool. When an unexpected guest arrived at mealtime, they were invited to take potluck, meaning they would get whatever happened to be in the pot at the moment without any special preparation.
00:06:52
Speaker 1: I'm going to stop you there. This says a lot about her question. It originates from a surprise guest. A potluck shouldn't be like, Like, hey, everybody, I'm having a potluck tonight.
00:07:03
Speaker 2: Come by. It's like, bring something. It's like, girl.
00:07:07
Speaker 3: Well, I guess that's where the surprise comes into play.
00:07:08
Speaker 1: If I'm a surprise guest, I'd be like, hey, oh, grab a slice of pizza. I don't want to have to be like, make something at home and come to my party.
00:07:15
Speaker 2: Not every time. The whole concept is that you have this simmering thing. You don't know what's in it. You go and you test your luck with the pot. My point is... That's fun.
00:07:27
Speaker 1: I think also everybody can Uber Eats their own food or Postmates depending on who sponsors it.
00:07:31
Speaker 3: Group orders are great.
00:07:33
Speaker 2: I think make it a mystery.
00:07:35
Speaker 1: Mystery dessert.
00:07:36
Speaker 2: So here's my concept.
00:07:37
Speaker 3: I like it.
00:07:38
Speaker 2: We create like a container that conceals the identity of the food.
00:07:45
Speaker 3: Sounds like a TV show.
00:07:46
Speaker 8: Right?
00:07:47
Speaker 2: And you go and you or you can just wear a blindfold I guess too.
00:07:51
Speaker 3: I like it though.
00:07:52
Speaker 1: For a Christmas one year I got a charcuterie board for everybody that I loved It's a company and it's called Cocktutory Boards. It's in the shape of a phallic. I'll let you figure that out. That, however, a cocktutory board party could be fun.
00:08:07
Speaker 3: I have actually seen this where people bring like, you know, like a board, like a wooden board, like to a party, but it could be anything. So it's like meat and cheese. It's like cotton candy board. It's whatever.
00:08:20
Speaker 2: It's a board party.
00:08:21
Speaker 3: It's a board party. And you like line all the boards up.
00:08:23
Speaker 2: My opinion is, I'm going to.
00:08:25
Speaker 1: Drop some knowledge here, guys, because I have a lot of potluck knowledge. Because I've done this. I've had a couple potlucks in my day and lucky pots. I'd say, look, I think if this friend is constantly like, they're like, hey, we should do a potluck next Thursday and you guys are just coming off the heels of one on Friday. She'd be like, girl, can we just Uber Eats because this is getting out of hand. I don't have that many recipes.
00:08:48
Speaker 2: I agree.
00:08:49
Speaker 1: Somebody has their, somebody has their thing. And if you do that weekly, it's like, it's, it takes the excitement away.
00:08:54
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.
00:08:55
Speaker 3: I'm also like once a month, once a month, let's just have that.
00:08:57
Speaker 8: Okay.
00:08:58
Speaker 2: That's the advice. We're limiting the potluck to once a month, no more than that. That's it.
00:09:04
Speaker 3: I totally agree with you on that.
00:09:05
Speaker 5: All right.
00:09:06
Speaker 2: Next.
00:09:07
Speaker 7: Hey, this is Emily from Georgia. So I know all three of.
00:09:11
Speaker 8: You guys are dads.
00:09:13
Speaker 7: My husband and I have been married a few years, been together quite a few and, And we're at the point of having conversations about kids. So my question is, how did you guys know that you were ready to have kids? Or did you know you were ready? Or whatever that looked like. So how did you guys know that you guys were ready to be dads?
00:09:30
Speaker 9: Thanks.
00:09:31
Speaker 7: Have a good day.
00:09:31
Speaker 2: Hi, Emily. I'm George. George is also kind of having a moment.
00:09:35
Speaker 8: Oh.
00:09:37
Speaker 2: Nick disagrees. And I also disagree with myself, except Millie Bobby Brown has.
00:09:41
Speaker 3: A big farm.
00:09:42
Speaker 2: I would like to visit that.
00:09:43
Speaker 3: She has so many animals.
00:09:45
Speaker 1: I thought she was joking, but she does have a lot of animals. I think that's a very exciting time for you and your husband, Emily. Those conversations are very big conversations. Sounds like you guys are kind of at that point where you're in a relationship where you're like, all right.
00:10:00
Speaker 2: Are we ready? Is it time? Um, I think it's to answer your question. I feel like it's, it sounds weird, but it's a gut feeling.
00:10:08
Speaker 3: It's just like, Hey, You know what Danielle said? We had this conversation over the weekend, and she said to our friends, she said, the minute you start talking about having kids as a couple is when you're on the precipice of being ready for kids.
00:10:21
Speaker 1: Have you guys been testing out babies, Emily? Have you been holding babies recently? Sometimes you get baby fever, you know? Please don't ever say testing out babies.
00:10:28
Speaker 2: Well, I'm just saying. You know what I'm saying? You get what I mean, right?
00:10:33
Speaker 1: You're like holding one, and you're like, this feels right.
00:10:36
Speaker 2: This podcast is a bad idea. No, it feels great. I got to say, one of the most bizarre things when we were leaving the hospital with Malti Marie was the doctor said, okay, are you ready to take your baby home?
00:10:54
Speaker 4: Like, nope.
00:10:55
Speaker 2: And you're like, what? This is okay?
00:10:59
Speaker 3: Like, where's the manual?
00:11:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's like, the car seat is, you know, put in the car correctly.
00:11:06
Speaker 1: And you're not allowed to, at least in California, you can't, Like, no one can help you put the baby in the car seat.
00:11:12
Speaker 2: You have to, yeah, you have to. So then their last question is, are you ready to take your baby home? It's like, what happens if someone's like, I don't know. It's crazy, but it's a metaphor for a bigger thing, which is like, will you ever be ready? You just have to do it.
00:11:24
Speaker 3: Great question.
00:11:24
Speaker 2: That's the thing.
00:11:25
Speaker 1: A lot of friends who are thinking about this situation, Emily, guys and girls who are like, well, maybe this could be it.
00:11:34
Speaker 2: Maybe this, like, it's time.
00:11:36
Speaker 1: And I feel like to the core, it's like, as long as you and your partner, whatever your situation is, if you're having that combo.
00:11:44
Speaker 2: Between you guys and you get in the itch, test out some babies. Just kidding. I'm kidding.
00:11:54
Speaker 1: Obviously I think we're all saying like, if you're having the combo, it might be the answers there.
00:11:58
Speaker 2: You're, you're, um, digging my grave. Your cancel panic just now was so intense.
00:12:04
Speaker 1: Me?
00:12:05
Speaker 2: I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
00:12:05
Speaker 9: I'm good.
00:12:06
Speaker 2: Um, uh, Cancel away, kids.
00:12:08
Speaker 1: All right.
00:12:09
Speaker 2: Next up.
00:12:10
Speaker 3: Cancel Panic is the name of this episode.
00:12:13
Speaker 2: You can wear Cancel Panic pants. It's like an adult diaper.
00:12:17
Speaker 1: All right.
00:12:18
Speaker 2: Go ahead.
00:12:18
Speaker 1: Next one.
00:12:18
Speaker 2: Cancel Panic at the Disco.
00:12:21
Speaker 9: Hey, Jonas.
00:12:23
Speaker 6: This is Nicole from Los Angeles. I have a question. I'm getting married in March and I'm doing my bachelorette. A little bit early because we want to be able to go do the Vegas pool parties. But I'm curious to know if any of you had traditional bachelor parties. And if you did, where you went. And if you have any special memories that you want to share from one. Bye, guys.
00:12:44
Speaker 2: Okay, can I just say something? I feel like Los Angeles is having a moment. I was going to disagree. Have you guys heard of Los Angeles?
00:12:51
Speaker 3: Vegas apparently is having a moment.
00:12:53
Speaker 2: A traditional pool party. I like that she says it like that. Traditional.
00:12:56
Speaker 8: You know what?
00:12:56
Speaker 2: You make that sound so classy. I will tell you what.
00:12:58
Speaker 9: It ain't.
00:12:59
Speaker 2: It is so.
00:13:00
Speaker 8: It ain't.
00:13:00
Speaker 1: Sloppy and fun. And you better prepare yourself. I think you need to go all in, have the best time in Vegas.
00:13:07
Speaker 2: Go all out. But to answer your question, any stories? My bachelor party was in Ibiza. We did have bachelor parties, first of all. Joe was in Ibiza.
00:13:16
Speaker 1: Whoa.
00:13:17
Speaker 2: Here's a photo of Joe on his bachelor party. Yes, his shirt is torn.
00:13:22
Speaker 3: Yes, he has a crown of a 1942 on his head.
00:13:24
Speaker 2: It was a trip. We actually played a football soccer match in the Ibiza... team stadium. It was a hundred degrees and we were all brutally hungover.
00:13:36
Speaker 3: In the most Jonas Brothers thing we ever do though, we fly home from your bachelor party and went to eight straight hours of press.
00:13:44
Speaker 2: As it should be.
00:13:44
Speaker 4: It was great.
00:13:46
Speaker 2: My bachelor party was in the Bahamas. It was a great time. Here's a photo. For some reason I said we should all wear suits one night. It's always a better idea on paper. Yeah. And then Kevin had a bachelor party. But it was kind of cut short because what were we doing?
00:14:05
Speaker 3: We had to perform at the Disney Christmas Parade.
00:14:09
Speaker 2: You're so salty as you said that just now. I'm sorry. I'm going to rephrase.
00:14:14
Speaker 3: We got to fly to Orlando to perform for the Disney Christmas Parade.
00:14:19
Speaker 2: It was actually in Los Angeles or in California. But by the way, again, Los Angeles.
00:14:22
Speaker 5: No, it wasn't.
00:14:22
Speaker 3: It was in Orlando.
00:14:23
Speaker 2: It was in Orlando?
00:14:24
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:14:26
Speaker 2: Then we took you to the Giants game, which was fun.
00:14:28
Speaker 3: We took you to the Giants game, which was great.
00:14:29
Speaker 2: It's going to be so fun for her, by the way.
00:14:30
Speaker 3: I have zero photos from my trip.
00:14:31
Speaker 1: I'm so excited for her to go on this bachelorette party. You're going to have the best time.
00:14:35
Speaker 2: In Vegas, too? Which DJ are you going to see?
00:14:37
Speaker 3: Where should they go?
00:14:37
Speaker 2: We should probably go see Marshmello if he's on. But my advice would be.
00:14:43
Speaker 1: Give yourself some time, a couple hours between pool party and dinner. That means disco nap. Naps are important. So you're going to have some drinks, you're going to have some fun. have some snacks at the pool and you should leave by like five or 35. You should go take a nap for at least three hours. Another thing is like a steam and sauna situation really helps.
00:15:06
Speaker 2: Oh yeah. But you should go all out. It's me. A lot of fun. Have fun and have a great wedding.
00:15:11
Speaker 9: Totally.
00:15:11
Speaker 8: Okay.
00:15:13
Speaker 10: All right.
00:15:13
Speaker 2: Do we have more moss?
00:15:14
Speaker 10: My name is Darlene. I am from San Diego, California. My fiance and I are getting married December 22nd this year, and I am stuck in a super pickle. Not the pickles with Jolly Ranchers or whatever Tiffany Haddish was saying. But if you guys had to pick between one of your two songs to walk down the aisle to, my first option would be Love Bugs. which is my all-time favorite song, or I'd love you to have in the acoustic version. They both speak to us. They both speak to our relationship. I wanted to get you guys' advice on which one you guys would suggest.
00:15:50
Speaker 1: That's great.
00:15:51
Speaker 2: Congratulations.
00:15:52
Speaker 1: My vote's kind of love bug. I think, you know, as long as you don't get to the big, like, it should stop before the bridge. There's a guitar solo.
00:16:00
Speaker 3: Or not. And fireworks and a kiss. That'd be great.
00:16:03
Speaker 1: But they have to still do the whole ceremony before the kiss.
00:16:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, they do it after.
00:16:06
Speaker 1: They pick it back up. It's like, and then they kiss. There's a Love Bug jazz version. A Love Bug jazz version, huh?
00:16:18
Speaker 2: Yeah, which is.
00:16:19
Speaker 3: That's cool.
00:16:20
Speaker 2: Jazzy love. I would say Love Bug for sure. I think that's the quintessential Jonas Brothers song, and it's perfect for that environment. I agree with Joe. Maybe don't do that.
00:16:28
Speaker 3: Plus it's her favorite.
00:16:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Love Made to Heaven feels a little... A little high energy.
00:16:33
Speaker 3: She said the acoustic version, though. Which, I don't know, which version is that? Like, have you heard, I don't remember which one that is.
00:16:39
Speaker 2: You've not heard that version, Kev?
00:16:40
Speaker 3: I mean, like, I was there, so I'm sure.
00:16:41
Speaker 2: Of our song that we've released? Yeah.
00:16:44
Speaker 1: Oh, there's a, or you could do a, you know what, I just found a very suave Burning Up.
00:16:49
Speaker 3: There's actually the ones, the Bridgerton version of both songs. There you go.
00:16:55
Speaker 2: That's a good idea.
00:16:55
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:16:56
Speaker 2: You could do this.
00:16:57
Speaker 10: I am cold.
00:17:05
Speaker 2: It's giving wedding. Where's the creator? Shout her out.
00:17:10
Speaker 3: Shout out.
00:17:11
Speaker 2: Jade Grey. Love this version. I love it. Very emotional. Here's what we'll promise. I like it.
00:17:30
Speaker 3: Can she do love bug for her for her wedding? Let's see if we can make that happen.
00:17:33
Speaker 6: Jade Grey.
00:17:34
Speaker 2: Perform that version at your wedding. That'd be sick. That'd be amazing. Jade Gray, very talented. Shout out to Jade Gray. Let's hear another voicemail.
00:17:42
Speaker 11: My name is Nayemi.
00:17:43
Speaker 9: I am from Chicago. I am listening to your Hey Jonas podcast on my way to work. And I am just feeling really disillusioned.
00:17:52
Speaker 10: And burnt out.
00:17:53
Speaker 9: I am a primary care doctor. I work at a low-income sliding scale clinic. doing amazing work. I grew up in the neighborhood that I work in now, but I'm.
00:18:08
Speaker 6: Just, you know, I'm really burnt out.
00:18:10
Speaker 9: It is incredible work, but it is really exhausting. And I feel like lately with social media, primary care doctors have been painted in a very negative light. And, you know, I really went into this field because I wanted to help people and I wanted to be there, you know, for families. I've just been really struggling to get myself to get to work and you guys and your podcast just bring a lot of light into my mornings and, and make me feel a little bit more motivated to go to work. So thank you so much. And just wondering how you guys push through, you know, the burnout phase of, of doing something that you love, but you're just exhausted.
00:18:51
Speaker 3: Well, thank you so much for all of you that you do, uh, especially in the neighborhood that you grew up in. That's so cool. But at the same time, as you said, it can be tough and it can burn you out and, We need the doctors to stay strong because we need you out there. So thank you.
00:19:07
Speaker 1: Piggyback on you, Kev. Thank you so much for what you do. And I can only imagine it's got to be exhausting thing. We can even hear you in the car. It sounds like you're in traffic. This is like a stressful season. And also, you know, you're doing something amazing, not only for people, but also your community. And yeah, social media can be quite toxic as much as we can have fun with it and find things that inspire us and make us laugh.
00:19:33
Speaker 2: Mike has questioned things. I think it's also, look, we.
00:19:36
Speaker 1: We, our algorithms can easily put us into a lane of negativity and, um, we're sorry that's happening to you, but you do matter. And we really hope you, you find something that you can do for yourself. You'd, deserve a moment of like relief maybe deleting social media for a little while might help putting it on a timer or something on your phone could be like hey i'm only gonna check it like an hour a day or literally delete it for a month or two just to see how you feel or a week just to see if it brings some clarity but a little bit Treat yourself. Do something nice for yourself. Whether that's taking yourself out for dinner. I know that sounds weird. Doing something fun. Taking yourself to a movie. Reminding yourself that you are a person that needs care and love and you got to take care of that person because your work person and your person is different.
00:20:26
Speaker 3: You know what I'll do to help us out? We're going to have two tickets waiting for you just to say thank you for what you do. I'll make sure that happens.
00:20:32
Speaker 8: Nice.
00:20:33
Speaker 11: Love it.
00:20:34
Speaker 2: It's kind of moments like these where I feel like the thing that we do podcasts are our music and it seems so insignificant in comparison to the work that people are doing in the healthcare space and beyond serving their community and, and, um, helping people, you know, and, and so I want to say first, thank you for what you do. Um, please stay encouraged to, because to Kevin's point, um, We need our doctors to feel ready and willing and eager to go to work and to help people and save lives. We need to continue to encourage people whose jobs are not just important, but critical to society as a whole. So in whatever way we can be helpful in that, as insignificant as it feels to sit and just talk on a podcast or make a song. Um, thank you for allowing us that opportunity to, to bring some light into your world. And please know that we don't take it for granted and that, uh, we wear it as a badge of honor to, to get, to bring some, some light into your, your very intense worlds.
00:21:56
Speaker 11: Um, and on that note, Hey Jonas, this is Cheyenne over in Portland, Oregon. I was calling for some advice. My husband and I are celebrating our 14th wedding anniversary and, And I do not know what to get him. So maybe you can give me advice on what you guys think he would want. He's a pretty chill guy. He doesn't ask for a lot and, um, he's a really good dad of our two daughters. And so, yeah, I just want to give him something special or do something activity wise. So maybe you can give me some advice on that.
00:22:29
Speaker 3: I know exactly what you should get him. You should get an edible arrangement. From our actual new sponsor.
00:22:38
Speaker 9: Oh.
00:22:38
Speaker 2: Are we sponsored?
00:22:39
Speaker 3: They are official sponsored by Edible Arrangement. Look at this. Are you kidding me? I am not kidding.
00:22:46
Speaker 9: Yep.
00:22:47
Speaker 3: We did it, boys.
00:22:48
Speaker 2: The journey we've taken to get it. By the way, the perfect gift. The perfect gift for.
00:22:53
Speaker 10: Look at this.
00:22:54
Speaker 3: Who would not love this? Here you go. You did it.
00:22:57
Speaker 1: The gift that lasts about a couple days.
00:23:00
Speaker 3: And the kids will love it, too.
00:23:02
Speaker 2: The thought that lasts forever. The gift that actually lasts a few days.
00:23:05
Speaker 9: Nice.
00:23:05
Speaker 2: That's Kevin's slogan. Give us a breakdown of what you got going on. You got some chocolate-covered strawberries.
00:23:10
Speaker 3: Okay, so it definitely looks chocolate-covered strawberries.
00:23:12
Speaker 2: None of your sponsors. You should probably have a bite.
00:23:14
Speaker 3: Chocolate-covered marshmallows. And this is called the- Marshmallows, though.
00:23:18
Speaker 2: Marsho, bro.
00:23:19
Speaker 3: Marsho.
00:23:19
Speaker 2: Chocolate-covered marshmallows. Marsho.
00:23:23
Speaker 3: This is actually the Mocotini, so you should definitely- What does that mean?
00:23:26
Speaker 2: Is there coffee in there?
00:23:26
Speaker 3: This is the name of this beautiful thing.
00:23:28
Speaker 8: It's the Mocotini.
00:23:29
Speaker 3: Eat the marshmallow.
00:23:29
Speaker 2: Eat the marshmallow.
00:23:30
Speaker 1: As everybody knows, we are sponsored by Edible Arrangement. And we feel like you should get your husband an Edible Arrangement with something from his childhood. I think you should go nostalgic. He'll be like, oh my gosh, how did you find this? Go on eBay for like 30 bucks, depending on your budget. You can probably find like a toy he grew up with. He'll be like, call his mom or dad or cousin or uncle or auntie. Be like, yo, what did he play with a lot? And see if you can get that. You might be able to find the Hulk. Remember Hulk, the stretchy Hulk?
00:24:03
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
00:24:04
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was good.
00:24:05
Speaker 2: What was it called?
00:24:06
Speaker 3: I also like the new Game Boys that you got me, Joe, that have all the games on them. Those are cool.
00:24:10
Speaker 1: They are so good. I have in my room, I'm playing Pokemon right now. OG Pokemon.
00:24:15
Speaker 3: But for everybody asking, yes, this is the Mokatini, and you should order that.
00:24:18
Speaker 2: I think we should pull a question from this bowl.
00:24:22
Speaker 6: Got it.
00:24:23
Speaker 2: Bowl game time. What do you think is your biggest red flag?
00:24:30
Speaker 8: Oh.
00:24:30
Speaker 2: I'll start.
00:24:31
Speaker 3: I can be messy.
00:24:32
Speaker 2: Yes, you can.
00:24:33
Speaker 3: And I can be judgmental and also reactionary.
00:24:36
Speaker 1: Is that what it is?
00:24:37
Speaker 2: Well, sure.
00:24:38
Speaker 3: I'm working on it, guys. Working on it. We were away this weekend when I made our bed at our friend's house, like you did when you came to our house. It was so nice. Even Danielle mentioned. She goes, he made his, everything in his room is so put together.
00:24:50
Speaker 11: So nice.
00:24:50
Speaker 2: I was hoping she noticed. I'm not going to lie.
00:24:53
Speaker 3: She noticed.
00:24:54
Speaker 2: Okay. What's the red flag about you, Joe?
00:24:56
Speaker 9: I don't know.
00:24:57
Speaker 2: I thought we'd tell each other what the red flags were. Oh, Kevin's just telling us his, though. Yeah. What's mine, guys?
00:25:02
Speaker 3: I think that's more dangerous, though. I don't know. I don't want to do that.
00:25:05
Speaker 1: I think that's fun.
00:25:06
Speaker 2: I think it's fun. Like, you're annoying as fuck. That's true.
00:25:13
Speaker 6: Facts.
00:25:13
Speaker 3: You're, like, really handsome, and it's annoying.
00:25:15
Speaker 2: Oh, my wife's... Priyanka, what's my red flag? What's Joe's red flag? Like, what's my biggest red flag?
00:25:21
Speaker 3: You don't have any.
00:25:21
Speaker 2: There you go, Priyanka. Priyanka Chopra Jonas says.
00:25:23
Speaker 3: I don't have my red flag.
00:25:24
Speaker 9: Oh, Joe is.
00:25:26
Speaker 3: Are we really doing this? Are we actually going to tell each other our red flags?
00:25:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, go for it.
00:25:30
Speaker 3: What do we got? It's okay. I have no red flags too. You're the only person, not only person, you know every food place better than everybody else.
00:25:39
Speaker 2: Oh, that's annoying, yeah.
00:25:40
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
00:25:40
Speaker 6: Sorry.
00:25:41
Speaker 2: I'm bad at... Relinquishing control to others when making a plan. Yeah.
00:25:47
Speaker 1: I'll go to a city that either of you have been to.
00:25:48
Speaker 2: That I've lived in.
00:25:49
Speaker 10: And lived in.
00:25:50
Speaker 2: Literally lived in.

00:27:22
Speaker 2: Kev, you got a question?
00:27:23
Speaker 3: Yeah, I pulled one. If you no longer had to sleep, how would you spend those extra eight hours?
00:27:29
Speaker 2: Play a lot of Fortnite.
00:27:31
Speaker 3: Actually, Nick, you just went through this unintentionally for like a couple months. So what'd you do with that extra eight hours? I can't sleep eight hours.
00:27:37
Speaker 1: I don't know.
00:27:38
Speaker 2: Eight hours is a dream, but yeah, it's not. It'd be amazing.
00:27:40
Speaker 1: I don't sleep eight hours. What's your sleep, Kev? What numbers are we getting?
00:27:45
Speaker 3: Seven to eight.

00:27:48
Speaker 3: Oh, big update. We got a hamster.
00:27:50
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, we're about to get the hamster when I came to visit. What's the hamster's name?

00:27:56
Speaker 11: River.
00:27:57
Speaker 2: Great name.
00:27:57
Speaker 3: That's a great name.
00:27:59

00:28:03
Speaker 5: Why not?
00:28:04
Speaker 2: That's great. I'm excited to hear the updates.
00:28:05
Speaker 3: She's so in love with this hamster, and all she does is Valentina, and she questions if it loves her every day.
00:28:12
Speaker 2: Don't we all?
00:28:13
Speaker 3: Do you think it loves me? Do you think it loves my mom?
00:28:16
Speaker 2: That is the life's biggest question. I would, well, I think I would probably... And I'd get super jacked.
00:28:23
Speaker 5: Okay. Yeah.
00:28:24
Speaker 2: Back to the eight hours of sleep. I'd have a lot more time to exercise.
00:28:28
Speaker 3: Four hours of extra workouts every day.
00:28:30
Speaker 1: I'm lucky if I get some time in. You've got kids. You've got life stuff.
00:28:35
Speaker 3: You guys are looking very vacated, and I'm really proud of you.
00:28:37
Speaker 2: Joe would like to read an excerpt from his new favorite book.
00:28:41
Speaker 1: This is Farts in the Wild by H.W.
00:28:44
Speaker 2: Schmelt. Okay, first tell the story of being on the plane and this book going off. This book is a gift to my daughters from Greg Garbowski and Paris Carney. And classically, like, unks, uncles and aunties, unks, unks and aunties.
00:28:59
Speaker 3: Unks and aunts.
00:29:00
Speaker 1: They don't think through some of these gifts. Like, I would be carrying them in my carry-on. And as I got up, I hit a button. There's your buttons here. And a loud toot blasted over first class. And everybody could hear. The sound of my fart. Book.
00:29:18
Speaker 2: Okay, let's leave our listeners with a nice excerpt. Tell me when to stop, Kev.
00:29:23
Speaker 10: Stop.
00:29:24
Speaker 2: The meerkat.
00:29:25
Speaker 1: Big mobs of meerkats live in sprawling networks of tunnels and chambers deep underground. With so many meerkats living together, a single meerkat fart can be amplified and funneled into powerful geishas of funk.
00:29:39
Speaker 7: Geishas.
00:29:40
Speaker 2: Thank you.
00:29:41
Speaker 1: The tunnels are like a big twisty city with holes that aren't just ways in and out. These holes help release the fart pressure before it blows.
00:29:50
Speaker 2: Let's hear the fart.
00:29:54
Speaker 1: Fantastic.
00:29:55
Speaker 2: On that note, buh-bye.
00:29:57
Speaker 3: Buh-bye.
