September is a great time to travel,
especially because it's my birthday in September,
especially internationally.
Because in the past,
we've stayed in some pretty awesome Airbnbs in Europe.
Did we've one in France,
we've one in Greece,
we've actually won in Italy a couple of years ago.
Anyway, it just made our trip feel extra special.
So if you're heading out this month,
consider hosting your home on Airbnb.
With the co-host feature,
you can hire someone local
to help manage everything.

as uncertain as this one.
We sit down with politicians, artists, and activists

Hi, I'm Kate Hudson.
And my name is Oliver Hudson.
We wanted to do something that highlighted our relationship.
And what it's like to be siblings.
We are a sibling rivalry.
No, no.
Sibling rivalry.
Don't do that with your mouth.
Sibling
Revelry
That's good
Oliver Hudson
That is me
I'm Oliver Hudson
Today we have something
I'm actually really excited
About our guests today
Because this is an insane story
It's an insane story
And it's going to be one of the most insane podcasts
Just a warning
Trying to understand
Who is who
And who's talking
is going to be
difficult, but we're going to
figure it out. Well, and Kate will tell you why.
Well, today we have Brittany and Brianna,
Dian.
We'll ask her to pronounce this.
Dian.
Salyers.
And Josh and Jeremy
Salliers,
Saliers, we're going to ask them to
do this too, to pronounce their names.
And they are
twins, identical twins,
married to identical twins.
Interesting.
Fascinating. I can't even wait to get into it. And this is going to be really fun. But we're going to have to...
I don't know how we're going to do this. I think we have to say their names. I think I have to be like, oh, Britney, how did it feel? And you're going to be like, Brianna. And then I'm going to be like, Jeremy. Also, it's Brittany and Brianna and Josh and Jeremy. Like, even the names. What were their parents thinking? Let's just call them J-Bs. The Js and the Bs. You know? I mean... Now we have to separate them because we want to know their stories.
Anyway, I can't wait to get into this.
No, I know, I know.
And we'll talk about it.
Yeah.
We'll let them.
Because it's so interesting because the girls.
Their lives are parallel.
This is what they wanted.
They were looking to find this.
They wanted to marry a set of identical twins.
I think that's what happens when sisters are like so close and they love each other so much,
which I wouldn't know because I was only raised with all boys and brothers and boys.
Everyone's going to be all cheery about this union.
I'm going to get into the nitty gritty.
is to like what the issues are.
I want to know.
I want to know.
Well, let's see first if they're willing to share.
They're here.
They're here.
Let's bring them on.
Oh, hey.
This is so much fun.
Oh, my gosh.
We are so excited to be here.
Thanks for having us.
Kate, we wore yellow for you.
Yes.
And I'll see you, but we got stopped when had to lose a guy in 10 days.
came out and you were wearing your yellow from the cover.
We got stopped everywhere we went.
And people were like, your triplets, Kate Hudson.
And we're like, we're going to meet her one day.
Oh, cute.
Well, here we are.
Maybe next time we will actually be in person, which would be even better.
But it's so funny because I was just telling a story about how to lose a guy in 10 days.
Because we put some lights on and then I started to get hot.
She sweats a lot.
And I sweat really easily.
And so I started, of course, putting tissue under my armpits.
and then it reminded me of the scene
and how to lose a guy in 10 days
with Catherine Hahn
when I take Matthew to therapy
and I put the tissues under my arms
which was an ad lib for me
I just did that
because I didn't want to ruin my outfit
and then it ended up in the movie
and so that's what we're just talking about.
Okay.
So hold on I want to set this scene up for a second
we got Brittany and Brianna or Brianna
which one?
Brianna and Brittany.
Okay.
So let's set this up.
Yeah, set it up, set it up.
You are identical twins, Brittany, Brianna, Brianna or Brianna?
Brianna.
Brianna.
And then how do you pronounce your last name?
We're the Saliers twins.
Saliers is our last name.
Saliers.
So Brittany and Brianna, then you end up meeting and marrying Josh and Jeremy,
who are also identical twins.
That's it.
So the stage has been set.
Yes. So ladies, where are you from? Where were you born and raised?
We were born in Florida, but we grew up primarily in Delaware.
And do you have other siblings?
We do. So we're the oldest of four, and we have two little brothers.
And they are not twins.
They are not twins.
Did you ever hear from your parents what it felt like when they knew that they were going to have identical twins?
And did they know right away?
You know, they were shocked.
were shocked. They always thought it would be really cool to have identical twins, and they found
out that we were coming. So they do not know what it's like to have only one child since we're
the oldest. And our dad was in the Navy. He flew in the Navy. And he had, like, the story goes that
he had some, like, big test or something the next day. And our mom, like, calls and tells him
the news. I'm not just, like, pregnant. I'm pregnant with twins. And he was like, oh, my gosh,
He was up, you know, just like his world had just changed.
And he, like, failed the exam.
Like, the professor of the instructor.
And they gave him another chance because they were like, oh, my gosh.
They're like, this dude needs some.
Oh, really?
They're like, he needs a day.
They had some compassion, meaning like, holy shit, this guy's having twins.
We need to retest him.
Oh, that's so funny.
Especially, like, did, and you, I mean, I don't know.
The technology at the time, I'm sure they could tell they were identical as well, right?
that you were yes they knew that they were having identical twins before we were
before we were born isn't that wild you know my one of my very very close friends
just had identical twins then my friend ben shwerin oh swearing he had identical boys and he
we welcome them to the twins and multiples family yay there are neighbors and we were like when
when we all found out everyone was like holy shit and he was like in shock it took more than a day
It took him, like, a couple months to recover from the fact that not only, then he started thinking about, which I'm sure is what happens, like, what happens if I don't know which one is which, and he'll be able to do it.
I'm sure if there were some sort of tying a ribbon or string.
I think that's a common thing for the early babies because, you know, they all look very similar.
But, you know, I think it's possible that a lot of twins have been mixed up at that stage.
Sure.
And, you know, just went along the rest of their lives as the other person.
It's true.
I have no doubt it's happening.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, my gosh.
Yeah.
It confirmed.
And so, okay, so Jeremy and Josh, where were you born and raised?
We were born in Knoxville, Tennessee.
And from there, we moved to several places.
Our dad was in the Air Force.
So we went from Tennessee to Alaska to New York, Arizona.
Arizona, and then back to Tennessee
after retirement.
So both your parents were,
both your fathers were in the military.
Yes.
Wow.
We also have two siblings.
Only our two siblings are older.
We have older brother and older sister.
So it's probably a little bit worse for our dad
when you got the news.
The third one is coming and now it's going to be a fourth.
I'm sure that was traumatic.
Well, that's how it's for me.
When I think about it, you know, a lot of people thought maybe we would have twins,
you know, twins married twins.
Surely they're going to have a couple sets of twins.
And, you know, that sounds awesome.
But then once you have one and, you know, you've gone through that for a little bit,
I'm like, wow, we had four at once.
That would just be, it would be a lot.
That's, that is a lot.
Now, now growing up, did you feel like, did you, when you were able to know that being an identical twin is a rarity,
that it's a special thing.
Did you feel that when you would see people,
like people's reaction to you?
Do you always feel that, whoa, you know,
quality of like walking through life with each other?
You're like a celebrity at birth, basically,
because people are like, oh, my God, look.
You do.
I think I know, I'm a feeling that you're talking about
as far as like everybody kind of, oh, wow, look at this.
Yeah, you feel that.
It's kind of a full-time thing, yeah.
And you guys just decided to double up on that by marrying identical twins.
Right.
So it's now, it's just like more of what we, because people would ask us that, like, were you, aren't, were you worried about the stairs now for the rest of your life and you go out?
And it is magnified now, but I, I, there was always something from when we were little, people would kind of like Oliver said, it's a, it's celebrity on a smaller scale, especially when you're identical twins, because people stare, people ask invasive questions that are just.
you're used to. And people take pictures. Right. And so, yeah, that was, that was definitely
going on when we were little. Oh, yeah. I feel like with being identical twins, I realized
from a really young age that it could make you instantly popular. And it could also do the
opposite and make you instantly an outcast. Can we rewind to people taking pictures? I need to
understand, like, someone just randomly will go up to you and be like, can I take a picture of you?
Why are you in, why did you do a, like, a southern accent?
I think it was just Tennessee. I think I just heard Tennessee, and I went right to, like, my Reese with her spelling.
You know, I heard like, I heard like Knoxville, and then my accent just went like this.
Yeah, I heard Russian. And I take a picture of you.
I don't know.
That's your Russian accent?
I don't know. It was a mix of many.
No, I think that's what happened. I just clicked into Nashville.
Um, so they just come up and they literally asked to take a picture and they just like, I wonder what they do with it.
That's a great question.
They're like, look, you're twins?
They just, how do they show it to?
Well, to be totally straight up, if I was out to lunch and I saw you guys having lunch together, the four of you and then like, you're like, kiss, you're kissing and I'd be like, holy shit, babe, look.
Yeah, I definitely.
Especially four of us when we go out and people stare and what like even taking pictures of the four of us together.
I understand that totally because it's unusual.
You know, definitely don't see it very often.
So it's understandable.
No, it's right.
Because like if you guys walk all like holding hands and like you guys are holding hands of your, you know, spouses, anyone would look and be like, am I going crazy?
Is someone playing a joke on me?
their mind. You don't, you don't be, they don't always
verbalize it. Some people will
some people will ask, but some people you
can tell, they wonder, but they just
won't ask. Oh, you'll hear I'm talking about it
and us and self, yeah. Right.
You guys should, I must give you so much pleasure
just because, you're just like,
I would, I would go so far with
this. Oh, you guys, you guys should fuck with everyone
and you guys hold hands and then you girls
hold hands and just walk next.
Just keep it real weird.
Let me, let me ask
question though because I guess there's a I don't know if it's a choice but obviously some identical
twins will choose to sort of really be connected and coordinate clothes lifestyles everything and some
want to rail against it and individuate you know did you guys to all you all you all did you guys
have a moment where that was a decision or was it just you just grew into each other in the way
that you are a little bit of both I absolutely
We absolutely went through stages where we hated being called the twins.
We hated dressing alike.
We just, it wasn't really resented it,
but I think resented maybe how other people were about identical twins.
So we absolutely have gone through stages where we did not dress alike.
I hacked my hair off.
Oh, gosh, it was so sad.
You did.
We were going to be different.
I hacked my hair off.
Then I'm like, you know, then I'm that twin, you know.
I frosted my tips at one point where you pull it with the hook to the internet thing and it didn't go well and I think it's a natural thing for probably most identical twins at some point in the life to kind of go through this struggle with that you know or like experimenting with it you know to see you know what it's like I think it gets pushed on you to have your own identity like oh you're
you should have your own identity.
Well, we do have our own identities.
We each have our own individual identities, you know,
even though we're living together and, you know,
we all are this one cohesive unit.
We are individuals.
But you choose to wear the same clothes.
Is that always you every day?
I agree.
I don't think a clothes make you an individual.
So we are no more or less identical twins if we're wearing the same thing
you're not wearing the same thing.
And so I think we just kind of have fun with it.
And I think a lot of people don't realize like Oliver and Kate.
So like Brittany and I,
we always got into fights when we were young about clothes.
Because for example,
we are getting ready to come meet you to today.
And it was a big, you know, it's a big deal.
So what do we wear?
Well, one of us, we would both want to wear the yellow dress.
We would both want to wear it.
And one of us would get to wear it and would win.
That means someone else lost for the day.
Right. And it caused problems. So it got to a point where it was like, let's just both wear the yellow dress. Both wear the yellow dress.
Got it. And what about the, what about you guys? Like you're wearing the same Henley.
Which is easier. Right. And it's just, I think it just makes it easier. Just getting ready if we're going out together or doing things together. Yeah. We never really argue about what we're going to wear. Neither one of us really care. And that's the problem sometimes.
Neither one of us would want to pick something.
But a lot of times it just happens naturally where we'll get the same stuff without talking about it.
But yeah, you know, if we're getting dressed, you know, to go somewhere.
Yeah, it's usually we're going to wear the same thing.
Usually the first one that goes into the closet.
We'll grab the outfit for both for people and just let them lay it out.
What if one of you's been like pumping iron and you're,
you have all swole and the other one's like, I've just let myself go.
And you're like, dude, I cannot wear the muscle tea anymore.
You know what I mean?
Like, we would compromise.
We would compromise for that.
Yeah.
The trick is to not let it get to that point.
We have to stop before we get there.
That's another kind of struggle, I guess, is this trying to, you know, you don't want
that to happen.
You don't want one to live in the gym and the other one live on the couch.
Yeah, that's an interesting question.
actually. I mean, do you guys
motivate each other and push each other? I'm not talking
just with exercise, but just
with health, with wellness, with mindfulness
with all of us. Yeah, definitely. Yeah, we
that's one of the biggest... We have our interest, you know,
so I think, you know,
in each one of our
research, he likes to do gardening and
more about natural foods and stuff, so
you know, he can provide things that
the rest of us can't, so we can each kind of contribute
as far as, like, health and
wellness or concern. Yeah,
we definitely push each other to eat better,
you know and things like that so on a very deep level to go along with that i think even subconsciously
we don't want to be without the other we you know it's so i think we both want to stay healthy
we all four want to stay healthy for each other you know right like the spouse protection factor
that's a real thing you know when your people that are married tend to live longer because
their spouse will push them to get checkups and and you know things like that but twins are
live longer also, but they think it's because of that same factor, but it's just your twin,
you know, giving you that protection factor because they're looking out for you, basically.
September always feels like the start of something new, whether it's back to school,
new projects, or just a fresh season. It's the perfect time to start dreaming about your next
adventure. I love that feeling of possibility, thinking about where to go next, what kind of place
will stay in and how to make it feel like home. I'm already imagining the kind of Airbnb that would
make the trip unforgettable somewhere with charm character and a little local flavor. If you're planning
to be away this September, why not consider hosting your home on Airbnb while you're gone?
Your home could be the highlight of someone else's trip, a cozy place to land, a space that helps
them feel like a local. And with Airbnb's co-host feature, you can hire a local co-host to help with
everything from managing bookings to making sure your home is guest ready.

I'm Jorge Ramos.
And I'm Paola Ramos.
Together we're launching The Moment, a new podcast about what it means to live through a time,
as uncertain as this one.
We sit down with politicians.
I would be the first immigrant mayor in generations,
but 40% of New Yorkers were born outside of this country.
Artists and activists, I mean, do you ever feel demortals?
I might personally lose hope. This individual might lose the faith, but there's an institution
that doesn't lose faith. And that's what I believe in. To bring you depth and analysis from a
unique Latino perspective. There's not a single day that Paola and I don't call or text each other
sharing news and thoughts about what's happening in the country. This new podcast will be a way to
make that ongoing intergenerational conversation public. Listen to the moment with Jorge Ramon,
San Paola Ramos as part of the MyCultura Podcast Network on the IHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
I started trying to get pregnant about four years ago now.
We're getting a little bit older, and it just kind of felt like the window could be closing.
Bloomberg and IHeart Podcasts present.
IVF Disrupted, the Kind Body Story, a podcast about a company that promised to revolutionize
fertility care.
Introducing Kind Body, a new generation of women's health and fertility care.
Backed by millions in venture capital and private equity, it grew like a tech startup.
While Kind Body did help women start families, it also left behind a stream of disillusioned and angry patients.
You think you're finally like with the right people in the right hands, and then to find out again that you're just not.
Don't be fooled.
By what?
All the bright and shiny.
Listen to IVF Disrupted, the Kind Body Story, starting September 19 on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
You both have this setup you have. Let's get into that a little bit because it's very enmeshed. I mean, there's a lot. I mean, you are very, not only are you both,
married to each other's siblings, identical, you know, twin siblings, but you live together.
Mm-hmm.
Your children are three months apart.
Yes.
And I want to understand in more depth, like how did, well, first of all, how did you meet?
Yeah, yeah, because I read about it.
And then we'll get into the living situation.
I read about it.
The girls were like.
Like, I would never want to live with Oliver.
Let me just like, let's start with that.
Like, it would drive me insane to live with Ollie and Aaron.
I mean, I don't think so.
so you'd have way more fun she'd be laughing all the time from morning until night and then
then I cut years off your life because laughter and joy is actually I have plenty of laughter
and joy in my life and I like and I like my I like my space and I like things to be clean
and I don't like so much stuff I don't have much stuff now you got rid of all your stuff
yeah anyway this isn't about us okay I just
I don't know if I could handle it.
You'll be fine.
But let's talk about how you guys met.
No, well, and I just want to say that I love it.
No, we will, but I love that, and correct me if I'm wrong, but I was, you know,
obviously doing my research because I do research.
And you guys wanted this.
This is something you wanted, right?
You saw it out.
We experienced relationships when we were growing up with singletons.
And I guess, you know, through those experiences, we realized that if we were going to have
marriage it had to be with twins
and we knew that the two of us
so it wasn't necessarily that we were
like going out in the world
and actively seeking it
you know but we knew that that was going to
be the only way
we always lived together, work together
all through our whole life
we so we heard about a twins
festival and our mom
has mentioned it several times throughout
our life that they have this twins festival in Ohio every year
and I'm not sure
what made us want to go finally check it
out. But yeah, we went. And it wasn't the reason for going, wasn't we're going to go find
a set of twins to date and all that. But it was in the back of our minds. We knew that the potential
was there. Yeah. It would be a good place to find them. Okay. So describe, hold on,
describe the moment when you saw them, who went up to whom? And then the whole decision-making
process is like, well, they look the same. But I'm kind of feeling.
her. Yeah, there's a lot of
a lot of factors that have to. Yeah.
How did this work out? Give me
the holes of rundown. We saw them on the first day
of the festival. The first
gathering we went to, we saw
them from across this gymnasium
where everyone meets at the local high school.
And so,
you know, obviously we thought they were
beautiful and wanted to talk to them, but
there's so many people there. We could really
find the opportunity then.
And so me and him were just like, well, we're just
going to go back to the hotel and hang out.
till the next thing and so apparently at that time the girls had already seen us but uh oh yes
wasn't able to meet up so at that same time in the gym apparently they saw us so i'll let them
to tell you about what was like for them so we're sitting in the gymnasium the orientation at this
annual twins festival and we're sitting on the the bleachers looking down at the sea of twins
There's just hundreds of sets of clones around.
And I just all of a sudden spotted them.
And I grabbed Brianna's wrist.
And I was like, oh, my gosh.
And she immediately, her eyes went to them too.
She was like, oh, my gosh, she didn't have to finish the thought.
Right.
Because I looked out.
I knew exactly.
I then see them too, Josh and Jeremy.
And I know exactly what she's talking about, who she's talking about.
But hold on.
Let me stop you real quick because usually you're looking at an individual.
or two people who are different
and you're almost
a picking one, you're making an unconscious
judgment immediately, but did you
look at them as an entity
so to speak in that moment?
Yeah, that's what it's like. It is.
At the first, when we first
spotted them in the sea of twins,
so when you're
you're spotting a set,
you're spotting a set of twins.
Right. So at first, I'd say yes.
What an interesting way to think about that.
Yes. Then when we got to
talk for the first time, which was the last day of the festival.
Yeah, we, we didn't see them for the entire, uh, festival beyond that first day until
the last night, there's just an after party that they have at this hotel nearby.
And me and Josh went and I didn't see them there.
And we're like, let's just go ahead and go back to the hotel.
We'll pack up.
We'll go home.
We had to work the next day.
So we were, we were ready to go.
So we were heading out of the hotel, uh, through the main lobby as the girls were coming
into the hotel.
So we were just the four of us, you know, alone in that spot.
And we asked if we could get a picture with them, just hoping to get a picture at least.
And then we started talking to each other.
And we naturally split off in pairs at that time.
You know, we're just kind of gravitated toward one another.
Wow.
So it was a natural thing.
And it just happened to be that they're the firstborn twins.
And Brittany and I are the second born twins.
Right.
We're five minutes apart.
They're also five minutes apart.
Wow. So that's kind of beautiful in a way because it was almost this sort of unconscious sort of split off where it was like, oh, I think a lot of people wonder how that works.
Yeah, but yeah, it was the group, you know, the four of us talking and then it just broke into two conversations.
So yeah, it's hard to say exactly what point in the conversation that happened, but.
Right. And then it did happen. And I think that's the first time we're interacting and talking is it is that is happening.
Then it's individual.
Then it was definitely Jeremy and Brianna over here, Brittany and Josh over there.
Yeah, right.
And so then how did you exit that moment?
Like, did that continue until like, oh, let's have a drink?
Let's continue this night.
Or was it like, did you exchange numbers?
Like, then what?
Was your first date altogether?
Like, what does this work?
What's crazy is they have the same phone number.
Yeah, that's right.
So we got back, just want to see.
We drove back.
got home and Josh sent Brittany a message on Facebook or something, I think, and saying that we
couldn't wait to see them next year at the festival. And Brittany said, why wait until next year?
And so me and Josh drove to Virginia from Tennessee, because they were living in Virginia.
We were in Tennessee at the time. So it was like a seven-hour drive or so and drove out there
and all four of us went on this double date together. And yeah, it was.
Isn't that awesome when, like, guys will just, like, drive?
They'll just do it.
They'll get in the car and drive to see you and, like, make it happen all those hours.
Who made the first move first?
Who, like, kissed who first?
Josh did.
Maybe by, like, an hour, right?
I remember that.
This sounds funny because this, we wouldn't do it like this when we were dating
singletons, but, like, all four of us kind of, like, pile on to, you know, we went to Twin Lakes
first.
Well, we went to Twin Lakes, but I'm saying, like, we got to the point of, like, the first kiss.
or like holding hands for the first time.
So our first movie, all four of us are kind of there together,
like watching our first movie, if I remember correctly, right, guys?
Right.
And then it's like, then we're going off, like, each couple.
But like the actual date and everything was together.
But we found out that Josh did kiss Brittany and then Jeremy did kiss me.
And so we beat them to it by just a little bit.
We always think that Jeremy and I was joke like, well, we were born first.
And so the.
So they kissed first.
That is so cute.
So real quick, I want to go back.
Singleton, is this what I am?
Yeah, that's what you guys are.
I believe it still says it on your birth certificate under what your birth is categorized,
a singleton or twin.
Oh, wow.
I always thought I was just a simpleton.
Not derogatory.
Well, you are that.
You are that too.
Wow, I just learned something. I'm a singleton. That's cool.
Others and sisters. Got to love it.
September always feels like the start of something new, whether it's back to school, new projects, or just a fresh season.
It's the perfect time to start dreaming about your next adventure. I love that feeling of possibility, thinking about where to go next, what kind of place we'll stay in, and how to make it feel.
like home. I'm already imagining the kind of Airbnb that would make the trip
unforgettable, somewhere with charm, character, and a little local flavor. If you're planning to be
away this September, why not consider hosting your home on Airbnb while you're gone? Your home
could be the highlight of someone else's trip, a cozy place to land, a space that helps them feel
like a local. And with Airbnb's co-host feature, you can hire a local co-host to help with
everything from managing bookings to making sure your home is guest ready.

I'm Jorge Ramos.
And I'm Paola Ramos.
Together we're launching The Moment, a new podcast about what it means to live through a time,
as uncertain as this one.
We sit down with politicians.
I would be the first immigrant mayor in generations,
but 40% of New Yorkers were born outside of this country.
Artists and activists, I mean, do you ever feel demoral?
I might personally lose hope. This individual might lose the faith, but there's an institution
that doesn't lose faith. And that's what I believe in. To bring you depth and analysis from a
unique Latino perspective. There's not a single day that Paola and I don't call or text each other
sharing news and thoughts about what's happening in the country. This new podcast will be a way
to make that ongoing intergenerational conversation public. Listen to the moment with Jorge
Ramos and Paola Ramos as part of the MyCultura podcast network on the IHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
I started trying to get pregnant about four years ago now.
We're getting a little bit older, and it just kind of felt like the window could be closing.
Bloomberg and IHeart Podcasts present.
IVF Disrupted, the Kind Body Story, a podcast about a company that promised to revolutionize
fertility care.
Introducing Kind Body, a new generation of women's health and fertility care.
Backed by millions in venture capital and private equity, it grew like a tech startup.
While Kind Body did help women start families, it also left behind a stream of disillusioned and angry patients.
You think you're finally like with the right people in the right hands, and then to find out again that you're just not.
Don't be fooled. By what?
All the bright and shiny.
Listen to IVF Disrupted, the Kind Body Story, starting September 19 on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
I'm trying to figure out, like, how do you walk through life being so? It would be like, you know, what happens when one couple gets in a fight and like, or like, was there?
a moment where maybe
one couple was feeling
it more in the beginning than another couple
and then like
did someone want to get married earlier than
the other? Like how does this all like
how do you? Right because timing
almost has to work out perfectly.
Yeah. Oh, I want to get married. Are you
asking, are you going to ask her to marry you? Like yeah,
yeah. Well, I'm going to do it too. Like, okay.
You know, or I'm not ready yet.
You know, I mean, these are real human
questions that have to sink up. We knew
that we were going to get married to them
when we first met them.
We actually told our mom that when we got back from that trip.
Yeah, we said that to each other on the way home,
told our mother that we found these twins,
and we were going to get married to them eventually.
Yeah, then it was just about getting them to want to marry us after that.
So that was the plan.
Was there ever any reservations between any of you guys,
meaning like, oh, God, I know you're,
And it was just so synergetic, synergetic, like, synergetic?
Yeah, it just, there wasn't, I just, I don't recall having any kind of doubts.
No, the stars, it was just, the stars just aligned perfectly.
I mean, and the timing aligned, as you said, perfectly for all four of us.
Because, right, a lot of things do have to align, right?
We all four have to be single, right?
No one can be married, obviously.
We all have to want the same things and be ready.
And thank heavens, we were all on the same page.
Right.
So did you get married together?
Yeah.
Yeah.
So we did a double proposal.
So for the proposal, it was at Twin Lakes State Park where we had our first date.
And we told the girls that they were doing a commercial for the wedding venue that they had there.
So they had to wear like a gown or something they were wearing to a wedding.
And we wore a suit.
And so we had Inside Edition was there to film it.
And they filmed a couple of fake scenes of us at the park.
And then when we got to this pavilion,
that we laid out some rose petals.
And both of us dropped one knee at the same time,
asked at the same time.
And they said yes at the same time.
Same thing.
Same ring?
Same ring.
Yeah.
Custom ring.
Yeah.
Same ring.
Double infinities.
You can tell, yeah.
It's both two infinities intertwined.
Oh, cool.
Oh, we got married six months after that.
at the festival where we met.
Yeah.
In the town square in front of all the other twins.
Yeah, it was awesome.
We had a twin processional.
This feels like, 19 sets.
Wow.
Aren't there moments, like, even just hearing this, like,
and I say this in the most loving way,
where you're like, I'm feeling like there's too much twinning happening.
Like, no, you have moments where you're like, I don't,
I want something to be mine, like, alone, you know,
outside of this, outside of the foursome.
Because, you know, you also work together, correct?
Yes.
I'd say we went through that a bit before we met them.
So we went through fighting with each other.
Usually it was over guys.
We didn't like each other's boyfriends or.
Right. To be clear, we didn't fight because we wanted the same guy.
We fought because we didn't like, we didn't like who they were dating or there was
some weird just, yeah.
Right.
And part of it was that we were scared that the other one was going to ruin the
twin dream for the two
of us, right? You're getting too
serious. Now you'll blow our shot
at finding, you know, identical twins
that can really happen. And to go back and
forth with, you know, whoever it was, like,
well, you're going to ruin it. And so we did
a lot of fighting before we met them. We
actually get along better now.
That Gary True. It also
made our relationship stronger. The two
of us, you know, we
fought growing up and stuff too,
like everybody, I guess. But, yeah,
since we met, I think, you
Yeah, it's just better for all of us.
I think all of us are better twins now.
Yeah, well, I guess also you have someone who really truly understands what your entire childhood was like.
And also, I mean, I would assume that the connection, it's almost like, yeah, I might, I might, you know, I might not get this right.
But yeah, I might destroy this metaphor.
Yeah.
We're keeping this in no matter what, just so you know.
Well, it's like, let me put it this way.
It's like, don't change it.
I won't.
Okay.
When you have a child as a singleton and you have a child and you're married, once you have that child, it's like you'll never love anything more than that child.
And if that relationship doesn't work and you end up in another relationship, that person has to know that there's nothing that will ever come in between me and my son or my daughter.
and I would think that when you come into the world with a twin
and especially an identical twin that connection
that you basically came into the world with that
and if anything and anyone knows like your first and foremost
like it's different for me with Oliver like a man would come before Oliver
but then you're saying you were my identical twin and we had that like depth of
connection we came in the world together and we did oh I mean
so you're saying that identical twins have better
like deeper, more meaningful relationships
than that thing. Singleton siblings.
I think maybe that,
well, it's more like there's a depth
of like an identity, like an understanding,
a really deep understanding.
You go through everything together at this,
you know, you go to school together,
you're in the same grade together,
you're going through puberty together.
Like everything you're doing is together.
And then it's like if some random guy or girl comes in
and then kind of fucks with that relationship,
then it's problematic for the one thing that matters to you most,
which is your sibling.
Yeah.
Your identical twin.
Very well said.
I very well said.
I think that is absolutely right.
And we've tried to kind of explain that to people who have the question.
It's when we all became parents, of course, it was new and everything.
But I don't think we were new to the feeling that you just described.
That is a feeling we have always had.
Right.
that you love this person and also I think I was more probably more careful and safe
like my whole life.
You know, some people become parents and they stop, I don't know, going skydiving and things.
But we always had that because I had to live for my twin and vice versa.
And Josh and Jeremy understand that and have that with each other.
That's right.
It's like it's like when you guys are going through something as sisters,
I'm sure they give, I would assume that they have a deep understanding of the kind of space that you need to work out whatever it is that you're going through.
Yeah, if there's ever any arguments between, like, me and him are arguing or they're arguing, we know, to basically just kind of stay out of it, more or less.
It will work itself out, you know, on its own.
You don't need to get involved in that, you know?
Yeah.
Right.
The twins and normally have a good way to do that.
I think good way to like make up after fighting and things like that.
Yeah.
Normally you just carry on about your business and don't really say anything else about it.
Yeah.
Do you live in the same house?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Which is also our business.
We have a way that we run together and we live on site here.
Oh, cool.
Oh, I see.
Oh, cool.
Who is the better bedroom?
They're pretty equal.
They're pretty equal.
They're almost identical.
But I think there's.
is a little bit bigger.
I think you guys have the bigger one.
I think they got the big...
Jeremy, you're so right.
I think they did.
But what about the bathroom?
We have our own bathroom.
They have a better bathroom also.
They do.
Come on.
You guys have to admit that.
They have a better bathroom.
We have the bigger bathroom.
I don't know if it's better.
But yes, we are fortunate in that we lived on site at this huge property.
So we know that's, you know, we can share the ballroom.
You know what I mean?
There is space.
They're not right on top of each other.
Right.
And I think that is helpful and important.
We do get, although it's like this huge mansion and we'll all be like, you'll find
it's like all these rooms, all these rooms to go in and we'll all be kind of like right here
in one little space half the time.
And how many kids do you have just the one each?
Yeah.
Each couple has one little boy and we raised them together.
And I wanted to say, so I had heard Kate Oliver that you had mentioned that like,
you maybe have different parenting styles and that you kind of take turns being like the fun uncle or whatever and then there's like the you know aunt kate and i thought that was so interesting because it made me think i'm like that with our other nieces and nephews but with brittney and josh's child i'm not looking to be the fun aunt i'm looking i'm another parent yes and so it's like a different feeling we're raising the babies together so both are our just
genetic children you know that yeah they're they're genetically more they're genetically more brothers
than they are cousins right wow that's right their DNA is like the same right so wait so
they have two moms and two dads basically yeah genetically I smell a sitcom
son Jed has dark hair like us.
So it's like one of the one of them and one of them.
I mean,
they're basically going to be their brothers.
I mean,
they're literally.
So how?
And we raised them as brothers.
When they refer to each other,
they say,
you know,
my brother.
Do they call you both mom and both dad?
It's mommy and mommy and daddy and dodo.
So like,
Ami is for aunt mom.
Right.
Mommy and Omi.
Got it.
So do they,
do they,
how old are they by the way?
So hours just barely turned three
And theirs is about to turn three
So they're little
So as far as biology goes
They don't
They think of this as one big happy unit
Rather than like
That is my mother
And that is my
Amma
Sometimes they'll say
Two daddies or two mommies
They'll acknowledge it
On their own
Oh my God, I know
As long as everyone's on the same page
Imagine if everyone was not on the same page
There'd be complete chaos
that's true yeah you have to kind of all be really have like me like mommy mommy meetings
like you guys have to all like sit down especially as they get older because look they're both
going to have very they're going to be very different even though they're well or maybe not maybe not
but it's going to be interesting like so interesting it's not we have a lot of examples of it either
I mean yeah yeah we don't we don't have anything to look at so yeah that seems like a good way
to do it because I mean
let's project yourself
into the future a little bit
you've got like a preteen
they're starting to act out a little bit
they're a little stinky and rough and crazy
let's just say maybe they won't be
we'll see but like who's
gonna be the disciplinarian
the more like tough
mom
hmm
we're going to have to be honest
because they can't parent shop that's going to be
We don't allow parent shopping.
So I'd say maybe Brianna would maybe be naturally ever so slightly more strict.
But like in a Mary Poppin strict way.
Right.
Maybe I would be a touch more laid back.
But I think it's pretty even.
And we will make sure we're on the same page.
So there's no parent shopping.
Parent shopping meaning like, oh, you give me the better.
Like you go ask the other one.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
I like parent.
I've never heard that term before.
Yeah.
I've never heard it either.
I love that term
for which grown up
is going to give you
the best answer
I think that's almost
just a primal thing
that happened
from when we've early
marriages around
I mean
it's like
oh dad said no
all of a sudden
you know
I'll hear wild
and be like
hey mom
can I'm like
I'm like I just said no
you know
Ronnie does that all the time
but Ronnie does that more
Ronnie goes in for the drama
she comes up to me crying
oh
daddy said I can't
can't have this like she goes in right away it's not even a mask so is there any is there
first of all staying with the kids for a second you know is there any do they not sometimes
know who's who or are we it's just innate instinctual they get it uh there's definitely
occasions they have they have been tricked before they have right which is really funny but
they usually know um if they're tired or like they see one of us from the side
they'll get confused
but they usually know
who's Ami
who's mommy
who's daddy
who's Doda
and so they get so stunned
with themselves
there's a few times
when they have mixed us up
it's like
they think it's so funny
and they realize
like I thought you were
so I have a traumatic experience
I'm going to share with you
my mom was doing this movie
called Protocol
and she had these sort of
doubles
and this
And the double, they look, they dress her and look exactly like her.
You know what I mean?
And I remember, because I was little, and I remember going up to my mother and having some sort of an emotional situation.
And I, like, grabbed her, like, Mom.
And this woman who looked just like my mom from behind, like, turned towards me and looked down.
He's like, yeah, or whatever, you know.
She didn't sound like that.
I don't know where that.
It was a man.
No, but I remember that moment because it was like shocking to me.
You know what I mean?
That I was sort of emoting to this person who then turned out not to be my mother.
I still have trauma.
But Oliver gets trauma easily.
I do.
It just sort of, anything seems to be a traumatic experience.
So I.
I haven't happened to you.
That would be shocking.
Do you guys, is there any pressure to,
to always be together, you know what I mean?
Like if you guys, look, life is long
and relationships can be difficult.
I know that you guys say relationships aren't work
or shouldn't be work for you guys, you know?
Right.
You know, which is an interesting way to think about it.
Like, I think relationships do take work,
but not in a bad way.
They do.
I guess it's not fair to say that they don't take any work,
but it shouldn't be, I mean,
it's not miserable work
you know what I mean
it is work of course yeah
but it's you know
it's happy work right right
no it's good
the other piece is that
we had
look we didn't meet to we were all already
we already hit 30 when we all met
we had all been dating
singletons you know and so
we had been through relationships
where the twin thing was
was work it was such work
because I always felt pressure
honestly it wasn't pressure to like
be together it was like pressure to not be with brittany because maybe i was dating someone and
some were understanding but like maybe they didn't like that that was my other half and so then i almost
felt like i had to sort of like not pretend but like appease them in the relationship so i would
feel like i couldn't be with my twin as much because i needed to like be with them because they
needed their so that they felt like they were a priority for you yes and it was such a
And so now it's like easier.
So I just, just as a side note, when you guys say singleton, I feel less than.
It makes me feel like subhuman.
Like when you're like, and you're like, and you're like, oh my God, like I feel.
That's why you're an outcast.
Yeah, I feel like I feel like an outcast.
I feel bad about myself.
Oh, hey, well, we mean it in the nicest way possible.
a non-twin
a non-twin
regular humanoid
no I like a single
there's a word here that I want to
I want to like get to them out of them
so just getting back to that
like do you feel pressure to always be together
meaning if one of you guys as a couple
it's like oh my god it's not working
I'm not saying that would ever happen but again
relationships are funny I guess
if I think about that
happening I would imagine that yes
you would feel pressure to
work it out if you were having any
kind of doubts otherwise you would definitely
I would imagine I would feel pressure
to work harder I guess
I think we feel pressure to get the other two back
together yeah yeah exactly the other two
would get we would parent trap ourselves and get
the other two back together
so I yeah I mean
we are two different marriages
if nothing's ever going to happen
with with Brian and Jeremy but Josh
and I would stay together and
we would get them back together and invite you guys it would be your best do you guys talk
shit about it do you guys talk shit about each other like i'm saying do the girls get together and
like this fucking guys god damn it i'm sure so once in a while we can get together and yeah i mean
once in a while right it's like gosh and we're kind of like on the same team and we know it's the same
for them we hear you guys in the garage once in a while when you're working on your jeeps guys
And then, like, the couples, like, if Brian has been awful that day or something,
and I'll get in bed with Josh and be like, gosh, she's such an, uh, you know, and then vice versa.
And he won't get too involved.
Like, he'll be quietly supportive, but right.
Doesn't get too much.
But, and then, like, there's this other third dynamic going on with, like, we call it your twin law,
your twin-in-law, you know, like your, then that is like another, like, oh, yes.
That's crazy.
Where, like, they, we both, so Josh and I both know exactly what it's like to have Jeremy
as a partner yeah yeah yeah right yeah so like i mean shit talking that's a little harsh
but but to your point there is that understanding that you always have someone you can go to
who will understand if you're struggling in a relationship with anyone else in the house yeah but are you
ever in bed like talking candidly about sort of the other couple just as you do as a married couple
and then be like and be like hey babe don't don't say anything we just not say anything we just not say anything
you know what I mean yeah yeah yeah sure there's some of that yeah yeah all all the
honest discussion you know we'll call it good honest discussions about stuff I know
yeah yeah and it's helpful you know I actually thought that to be one of the best things
about our relationship in the beginning was finding someone that was understanding about
those aspects of my life you know if I wanted to say something about him to her you know
know, and she would understand that she also has a twin.
And it seems like the first-born twins and the second-born twins,
they do each have their own tendencies.
So there are some differences.
So we can understand, you know, the things that we don't like about them.
That makes.
Thank you, dear.
Don't they say.
I love those things, but.
Aren't there some statistics about this?
Like, the first, like, how does that work?
Like, there was something like one, there's always one twin.
that takes more nutrients
I mean from
interesting
that's that
that's definitely possible
I would imagine that
probably the first born
twin probably does
and then they get
you get more of the sort of good bacteria
the first twin usually gets coming out
more of the good bacteria
like there's there's something and then
and then
I mean there's some statistics
with this with the first and second
that are just like fascinating
do you guys think like you're more handsome than the other
like who do you
you like, are you know what I mean?
Are you like, I'm better looking?
No, we all think the other is like better looking.
But here's the thing, we absolutely all despise when other people say one of you is the
pretty, oh, who's the prettier twin?
Oh, who's the more handsome twin?
Oh, who's the stronger twin?
Hate it.
Hate it.
Yeah.
That's so weird.
We absolutely, it's very, um, yeah, it's just, it's awful.
So that always made us resent that person.
Like if they thought they were getting close with like, oh,
I'm going to compliment her.
You're the whatever twin.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Do that it would make me the opposite.
Totally.
It's obnoxious.
But I do, I think that secretly you guys are like, one of you is like, I think I'm a little
better looking, like that you'll never reveal or say.
Like I, like I know I'm better looking than Kate, but I just say it.
And that's why I couldn't be a good twin because I wouldn't be the best looking.
I think you are better looking.
You're definitely, Oliver definitely has the best.
look he needs that kind of confidence he needs to know it's all i have he needs to know how handsome
he is because it makes him feel better about everything else and maybe when we're 100 years old
we'll finally admit that some somebody will say yeah i always thought out of our father always
said one of the things i remember one of the few things i remember about our father and what he
said was all over he goes how's i remember one time i ran into him in a supermarket he goes
how's Ollie still handsome and charming
and I thought
oh that's
Oliver's core issue is that dad
always just said well
if all else fails you're handsome and charming
and then you got that
so that's all he's ever leaned on
yeah
he's an affirmation person
I'm a physical touch person
he is a physical touch
big time when you give him the compliment
I do I go like this I'm like oh
She does.
Hey, what are you?
I'm a quality time and words of affirmation.
And Gifts.
No, I'm really not.
That's my last one.
No, Gifts is not what shows love.
I like acts of service.
Are you guys the same?
Yeah.
We're both words of affirmation and physical touch and followed by house of service.
Josh and Jeremy, where do you guys?
I would say my top is quality time.
It is?
At least from those online.
tests I took.
Really?
Yeah.
I would agree.
Quality time is probably the most important thing.
Yeah.
As far as love languages go, you know.
Physical touch, words of affirmation, then quality time.
I like them all.
None of us are gifts.
None of us are guests.
You guys are good at acts of service, though.
Like, you guys are very helpful.
Like, you guys...
I think that's my expression.
Yeah.
That's how I express it.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, that's very male.
Oh, Aaron, my wife is acts of service.
It's like...
Well, that's good.
It's crazy.
If I do the dishes, she gets horny.
Oh, so she likes her team and I like, okay.
Yeah, you know what I mean?
Like, if I start doing things around the house and cleaning, like, you know, it's going to be a good night.
And I definitely don't get horny when Danny's doing the dishes.
It gets horny when she gets a gift.
September always feels like the start of something new, whether it's back to school.
New projects are just a fresh season.
It's the perfect time to start dreaming about your next adventure.
I love that feeling of possibility, thinking about where to go next, what kind of place
will stay in, and how to make it feel like home.
I'm already imagining the kind of Airbnb that would make the trip unforgettable, somewhere
with charm, character, and a little local flavor.
If you're planning to be away this September, why not consider hosting your home on Airbnb while you're
gone. Your home could be the highlight of someone else's trip, a cozy place to land, a space that
helps them feel like a local. And with Airbnb's co-host feature, you can hire a local co-host
to help with everything from managing bookings to making sure your home is guest ready.
Find a co-host at Airbnb.ca slash host. I'm Jorge Ramos.
And I'm Paola Ramos. Together we're launching The Moment, a new podcast about what it means
to live through a time, as uncertain as this one.
We sit down with politicians.
I would be the first immigrant mayor in generations, but 40% of New Yorkers were born outside
of this country.
Artists and activists.
I mean, do you ever feel demoralized?
I might personally lose hope.
This individual might lose the faith, but there's an institution that doesn't lose faith,
and that's what I believe in.
To bring you depth and analysis from a unique Latino perspective.
There's not a single day that Paola and I don't call or text each other.
sharing news and thoughts about what's happening in the country.
This new podcast will be a way to make that ongoing intergenerational conversation public.

Oh, one thing I wanted to ask about was this word quat.
what is it quaternary
quaternary
quaternary marriage
so is there actually a term
for this
yeah they made an actual term for
twins married twins
yeah I refer to as quaternary marriage
quaternary marriage and so
me be very clear that it's one of
the set of twin married to one of the other set
of twins so like two monogamous marriages
right that's a quaternary marriage
and this is where there's only 300
right 300 in the world
300 quaginary marriages
Out of 8 billion people
Well I learned something new today
I've never known that word
I've never known that
And I've never known a singleton either
I know
What are some misconceptions
That the public might
Think about this relationship
Probably
I think a lot of people wonder
With us being separate
In our relationships
Not just for people in one relationship
If that makes sense.
I think that people like to think that.
What?
That it's like polyamorous that you guys are just like.
I was going to guess that.
Like, hey, you're like, why I'm swap?
Yeah.
Now you're.
I want to say the comments on everything.
Yeah.
It's constant that.
Do you guys swap?
Have you guys ever like mistakenly, you know,
slacked with the other.
Right.
That kind of thing.
Also the codependency thing that people think maybe that we are too dependent on each other
that we couldn't survive without one another, I guess.
Yeah.
That it's unhealthy to be so dependent on each other.
How do you feel about that?
I don't think that we are dependent on one another.
Right.
We've chosen this lifestyle together.
You know, it's not that I wouldn't be able to function without it.
It's just something that that's what.
makes us happy so right and co-parenting and co-habitating like this is has a lot of benefits you know
yeah we i mean look we i mean i hate we live very close to each other i have to say there was
a time when our kids were little that we spent i mean it was really i mean we really spent so much
time helping each other you especially for me you know yeah no i know it's the best it is it's great
and by the way there's no fucking there's no right way to do anything
You know, if you're happy and you're not hurting anyone and everyone's healthy and growing
up, you know, in the way that they should and the way that you guys want to do it.
We made it easier.
Our lives are much easier together than it would be super separated because we want to
see each other a lot, of course, and we want our kids to see each other.
So we would just be in one another's houses like you guys were.
So it just makes more sense to just be together.
So great.
I think like if we, I totally agree.
I think that like if we got, you know, to age 80 and I was.
sitting there as an 80-year-old looking back at my life, I think I would feel a sense of such
regret to have squandered this amazing rare gift.
She's almost always a gift, not, you know, not always.
But overall, it's such a rare gift.
And so I think that there's something to sort of appreciating that and not squandering
even a single day.
And I think we'll get to the, you know, to 80 and look at each other and we'll feel
like, at least there's that.
I love that.
It's a great ending.
I love you guys.
You guys are awesome.
You really are.
You guys are cool.
So we usually end the podcast with our question, which is, what is one thing that you would
love to emulate about your sister?
And then what is one thing that you wish you could alleviate from her to make, sort of
optimize her life?
And then the same question for you guys.
This is awesome, actually, with the...
See?
That was good, Kay.
I knew.
I just didn't want to ask what their first kiss was.
And say your name before...
Say your name and you're talking about so that people can know who's talking.
Okay.
I'm Brianna.
And if I had to choose something that I especially admire about Brittany,
that I just sort of also exhibit myself. I think she has always been, even though I was first
born, she is usually first socially. And so she'll kind of lead like that. She's very
glamorous. Like I noticed that, yeah, I think that she was like the first to like, I don't know,
get us into like makeup when we were teenagers and that kind of a thing. And so,
I would say that kind of like you leading socially is something that I, yeah, that I think
I would attribute to you.
And then what would you alleviate a stressor or some sort of situation in her life that
would make it better?
And don't say her husband.
Yeah, in this situation, for sure.
maybe like the stress of like the world and like there's a lot of we both sense like we both because we're
attorneys like I know you have a really strong sense of like justice and this is if we can't you know
we can't get that for people and so you'll you'll like have the weight of like the whole justice
system on your shoulders I feel like sometimes so I would take that away if I could.
Great.
I think that I would, I'm Brittany, and I think that I would like Brianna's strength.
The name Brianna actually means strong.
And I think that overall, even though I could always beat her in chin-ups, I think overall, just emotionally, she is stronger.
And I've always felt that.
And so I would, I would like that for myself because I admire that in Brianna.
And then as far as taking away stress, we've dealt with some very stressful things with sociopaths and that situation.
But I would just, I would take away, I would take away also maybe some phobias, like just some fear so that we could just relax about.
bit more.
I appreciate that.
I love it.
There's so much closer than we are.
I know.
Because they're so close as well.
No, you guys, it's a different, it's a different thing.
It's a different kind of closeness.
We have other siblings too and we're very close with them and it feels like we have a brother.
He's just a year older than us and we love them just as much as.
Different dynamic, but siblings are so special no matter what.
So you're saying this is on us.
So we could be, we need to work at it harder, is that?
I think that you just might not realize it, but we can see it, we can see it.
So we could be, we need to work at it harder, is that?
Yeah, you still realize.
I agree.
I think that you just might not realize it, but we can see it.
We can see it.
Oh, yeah.
But your other siblings think that you guys love each other the most, for sure.
they feel very loves because they are babies but just a different dynamic
identical twin it's just a different yeah yeah okay guys what what are your answers to this
luscious question I'm Jeremy and if there's something that I would emulate of Josh it would
be probably as temperament I think that I'm a little more like hot-headed or all react more
uh or more just faster to react or more aggressive in my reaction i guess so yeah i haven't
having a more even temperament i think that i would like to emulate that and something that i
could take from him would be maybe uh i think we both share this shyness and social awkwardness
in that we're self-conscious maybe i don't know what it what it is but i think if i could take
away his social anxiety that i would do that because it's a lot more fun in life if you can just
be you know open and relaxed when you're talking to people yeah great well i think that um
he does a good job of uh kind of keeping things in order like all of our
you know finances and things like that and you know there's bills all over the place and things like
that um i think he does a good job keeping up with all that making sure that's kept up with
i think i would like to emulate that more um and i guess rather than maybe taking something away
maybe give give a little bit more patience i think would affect temperament you know so
Yeah.
It's kind of taking way giving, I don't know, call it whatever you want.
Taking wishes.
I love it.
So basically you're nuts.
You lose your mind.
You're the wild one.
He flies off the handle.
This has been wonderful.
Thank you for joining us.
And sharing with us, this is such an amazing story.
And, you know, this has been so much fun.
Thank you, guys.
Appreciate it, y'all.
