• 2:40Speaker 00

  Jonas.

• 2:58Speaker 00

  And that was our jingle.

• 3:00Speaker 01

  Love it.

• 3:01Speaker 00

  The we kind of came up with that, then it was, it was turned into a song.

• 3:05Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 3:05Speaker 02

  You did it like live, Joe, like Nick.

• 3:08Speaker 00

  We're songwriters, what can we say? All right, let's get to these voicemails. I'm dying to give some advice.

• 3:11Speaker 02

  Trying to give some advice that I shouldn't be giving.

• 3:13Speaker 05

  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 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 still don't even know I got divorced

• 3:58Speaker 05

  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. So can't wait to hear your advice and thanks so much for this podcast. It makes me laugh every single time I put it on.

• 4:14Speaker 01

  Awesome.

• 4:15Speaker 00

  She's so sweet.

• 4:16Speaker 01

  So sweet.

• 4:16Speaker 00

  And 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.

• 4:25Speaker 01

  Six years.

• 4:26Speaker 00

  I think a few months.

• 4:27Speaker 01

  Six months, six months, maybe, give or take.

• 4:29Speaker 00

  Not, not, I think it's like two months.

• 4:31Speaker 01

  May.

• 4:31Speaker 00

  My point is now that it's out in the world, I've seen some of the clips on TikTok and other places. It does bring me a lot of joy to know that this podcast that we started is bringing people joy.

• 4:46Speaker 02

  Totally.

• 4:46Speaker 00

  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 will say that I think this is a, an obstacle a lot of people have to navigate. How do you post about your relationship online? What does that look like?

• 5:08Speaker 00

  Not just at the beginning, but like, you know, during the relationship and otherwise.

• 5:14Speaker 00

  In this scenario, given that there's the divorce aspect and then the new relationship, I kind of feel like a, like a simple, so here's a life update. Period. 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, 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, you should chime in.

• 5:47Speaker 01

  Me?

• 5:48Speaker 00

  Everyone.

• 5:48Speaker 01

  I think it's all, I think it's great advice. Look, girl, are we trying to go viral? You know what I'm saying? Here's, it's just a little fun idea. You could be like, I could see the concept, 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.

• 6:13Speaker 00

  It's like, oh, and by the way, I got divorced.

• 6:15Speaker 01

  That's, that's good. Oh, by the way, I am divorced. These are all jokes, we're joking. I mean, look, I, the, my real advice, that's my fun advice, have fun with it. The real advice, I think, um, if you're happy, that's all that matters.

• 6:31Speaker 00

  If you're happy.

• 6:32Speaker 01

  And, and ultimately, if you're, you're not trying to hurt the other party or

• 6:37Speaker 00

  Great advice.

• 6:37Speaker 01

  If they're not necessarily in your life.

• 6:40Speaker 02

  That was good, Joe.

• 6:41Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 6:42Speaker 00

  I think I'm clocking that.

• 6:43Speaker 01

  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 it's, life's too short, just be happy. But like, that's, it's tough when you're like, oh, I gotta hear from Aunt Carol that she's mad that I posted because she doesn't understand that people get divorced. That's weird. Well, Aunt Carol, live your life, I'll live mine, I'm happy. Hard launch that shit. Even do a soft launch, a little photo of hands holding, be like, DM me for details.

• 7:16Speaker 00

  Life update coming soon.

• 7:18Speaker 01

  Life update coming soon, but I'm happy. And if you're happy, which sounds like you're very happy, um, live your best life. And ultimately like trolls will troll even in the family dynamic, so.

• 7:27Speaker 00

  True.

• 7:28Speaker 02

  Or bring him to the concert next time we play and we'll help you hard launch it.

• 7:31Speaker 00

  Yeah. One side note about, about this too, I feel like New Hampshire is having a moment.

• 7:36Speaker 01

  Dude.

• 7:36Speaker 00

  It's, it's big.

• 7:37Speaker 01

  It's, right? Am I, am I the only one that's, I'm like, I'm hearing a lot about New Hampshire right now.

• 7:42Speaker 02

  People, people in the Hamptons this last weekend were saying like, oh yeah, we're going to New Hampshire next weekend.

• 7:46Speaker 00

  They're talking about New Hampshire.

• 7:48Speaker 02

  Hamptons is talking about going to New Hampshire. So that's, that's the thing. And I'm not really a Hamptons guy, so this is cool.

• 7:53Speaker 00

  Whale belt, but.

• 7:55Speaker 02

  It is very whale belt.

• 7:57Speaker 01

  I have no idea what that means.

• 7:58Speaker 00

  It's getting popped Abercrombie collar, but.

• 8:01Speaker 01

  Oh, now I know what you're talking about. From there.

• 8:04Speaker 00

  Okay, next voicemail.

• 8:06Speaker 01

  Next voice.

• 8:07Speaker 05

  Hey besties. So I really want to ask you guys about, uh, what you think of potluck. This has been kind of an ongoing debate for my.

• 8:18Speaker 00

  Thank God you asked.

• 8:19Speaker 05

  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 Friendsgiving only situation?

• 8:45Speaker 00

  Wow.

• 8:45Speaker 01

  Wow, thanks for your question.

• 8:47Speaker 02

  This is a great question. I do not believe.

• 8:49Speaker 00

  The term potluck 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 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, 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.

• 9:24Speaker 01

  I'm going to stop you there. This, 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, come by. It's like, bring something. It's like, girl.

• 9:38Speaker 02

  Well, I guess that's where the surprise.

• 9:39Speaker 01

  If I'm a surprise guest, 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. Not every time.

• 9:47Speaker 00

  The whole concept is that you have this simmering thing. You don't know what's in it. You go and you, you test your luck with the pot. My point is, that's fun.

• 9:58Speaker 01

  I think also everybody can Uber Eats their. Own food or Postmates, depending on who sponsors.

• 10:02Speaker 02

  Group orders are great.

• 10:04Speaker 00

  I think make it a mystery.

• 10:06Speaker 01

  Mystery dessert.

• 10:07Speaker 00

  So here's my concept.

• 10:08Speaker 02

  I like it.

• 10:09Speaker 00

  We create like a, a container. That conceals the identity of the food.

• 10:16Speaker 02

  Sounds like a TV show.

• 10:17Speaker 00

  Right? And you go and you, or you can just wear a blindfold, I guess, too.

• 10:22Speaker 01

  I like it though. For Christmas one year, I got a charcuterie board for everybody that I loved. It's a company and it's called Cocktuterie Boards. It's in the shape of a phallic. I'll let you figure that out. That, however, a cocktuterie board party could be fun.

• 10:38Speaker 02

  I have actually seen this, um, where people bring like, like, you know, like a, a board, like a wooden board, like to a party, but it could be anything. So some, it's like meat and cheese. It's like cotton candy board. It's whatever, like it's anything has, it's a board party and you like line all the boards up.

• 10:54Speaker 01

  My opinion is, and I'm gonna, I'm gonna drop some knowledge here, guys, on, cause I have a lot of potluck knowledge.

• 11:01Speaker 01

  Cause I've done this. I've had a couple of 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. To be like, girl.

• 11:16Speaker 01

  Can we just Uber Eats? Cause this is getting out of hand. I don't have that many rest of peas. Somebody has their, somebody has their thing. And if you do that weekly, it's like, it's, it takes the excitement away.

• 11:25Speaker 00

  Yeah, exactly.

• 11:26Speaker 02

  I'm also like, hey, eat before I come. Let's just have this.

• 11:29Speaker 00

  Okay, that's the advice. We're limiting the potluck to once a month. No more than that. That's it.

• 11:35Speaker 02

  I like, I totally agree with you on that.

• 11:36Speaker 01

  All right. Next. Hey, young fellas. This is Emily from Georgia. So I know all three of you guys are dads. My husband and I have been married a few years, been together quite a few, 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 are ready to be dads? Thanks. Have a good day. Hi, Emily from Georgia. Georgia's also kind of having a moment.

• 12:06Speaker 02

  Well.

• 12:08Speaker 01

  Nick disagrees. Uh, I also disagree with myself, except Millie Bobby Brown has a big farm. I would like to visit.

• 12:14Speaker 02

  Oh, she has lots of animals. I want to see those animals.

• 12:15Speaker 01

  Animals. That was, 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. That's, that's, um, those conversations are very big conversations. Sounds like you guys are kind of at the point where you're in a relationship where you're like, all right, are we ready? Is it time?

• 12:34Speaker 01

  I think it's, to answer your question, I feel like it's, it sounds weird, but it's a gut feeling. Just like, hey.

• 12:41Speaker 02

  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.

• 12:52Speaker 01

  Have you guys been testing out babies, Emily? Have you been holding babies recently? Sometimes you get baby fever, you know?

• 12:57Speaker 00

  Please don't ever say testing out babies.

• 12:59Speaker 01

  Well, I'm just saying, you know what I'm saying? You get what, you get what I mean, right? You're like, you're like holding one. You're like, this feels right.

• 13:08Speaker 00

  This podcast is a bad idea.

• 13:10Speaker 01

  No, it feels great.

• 13:14Speaker 00

  I gotta say, one of the most bizarre things when we were leaving the hospital with multi Marie. Was the doctor said, okay, are you, are you ready to take your baby home?

• 13:25Speaker 02

  Nope.

• 13:26Speaker 00

  And you're like, what? This is okay?

• 13:30Speaker 02

  Where's the manual?

• 13:31Speaker 00

  Yeah, there's like, hey, the car seat is, you know, put in the car correctly.

• 13:37Speaker 01

  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.

• 13:43Speaker 00

  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, I don't know. It's crazy, but it's a metaphor for a bigger thing. It's like, will you ever be ready? You just have to do it.

• 13:55Speaker 02

  Great question.

• 13:55Speaker 01

  That's the thing. We, a lot of friends who, who are thinking about this situation, Emily. Guys and girls who are like, well, maybe this could be it. Maybe this like, it's time. 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 convo.

• 14:16Speaker 01

  Between you guys and you get in the itch, test out some babies.

• 14:24Speaker 01

  Kidding, I'm kidding. Obviously I think we're all saying like, if you're having the convo, it might be, the answer's there.

• 14:29Speaker 00

  You're, you're.

• 14:30Speaker 01

  Digging my grave.

• 14:32Speaker 00

  Your cancel panic just now was so intense.

• 14:35Speaker 01

  Me?

• 14:35Speaker 00

  Cause I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

• 14:37Speaker 01

  I'm good. I'm, uh, cancel away, kids. All right. Next up.

• 14:41Speaker 02

  Cancel panic is the name of this episode.

• 14:44Speaker 01

  You can wear a cancel panic pants. It's like an adult diaper. All right. Go ahead. Next one.

• 14:50Speaker 00

  Cancel panic at the disco.

• 14:52Speaker 02

  Hey, Jonas is brought to you by Almond Breeze. It's time for some questions from the producers.

• 15:18Speaker 00

  All right. Who started drinking almond breeze almond milk first?

• 15:21Speaker 02

  Actually, I think that was you, Nick.

• 15:22Speaker 06

  I think it was.

• 15:23Speaker 02

  Yeah. You're like, you know, guys, I tried this almond breeze in my coffee today.

• 15:26Speaker 00

  Changed the game for me. All right. Who's the most likely to finish the last carton of almond breeze and not replace it?

• 15:32Speaker 01

  That's Kevin.

• 15:32Speaker 00

  Kevin, of course.

• 15:33Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 15:34Speaker 02

  That's someone else's job.

• 15:35Speaker 01

  Take it, Kev.

• 15:36Speaker 00

  What's the most random place you drank almond breeze?

• 15:39Speaker 01

  The last time I visited the Empire State Building.

• 15:41Speaker 00

  Ah, that's a random place for sure. I've noticed you guys really like almond breeze almond milk. Who has the most specific way of drinking it?

• 15:48Speaker 01

  Ooh, um, Kevin's, you know what? So I found very interesting is how you will drink a carton to yourself.

• 15:54Speaker 02

  Yeah, straight off the dome.

• 15:56Speaker 01

  And he usually does it before show.

• 15:57Speaker 02

  Yeah, just really getting myself going.

• 16:00Speaker 06

  He needs it on stage. Okay. Last question. Why do you guys like almond breeze so much?

• 16:04Speaker 02

  Well, it just tastes great. It's a great alternative.

• 16:06Speaker 00

  It is great.

• 16:07Speaker 01

  It's simply because it's really good.

• 16:08Speaker 00

  True. Try almond breeze. Trust us. It's really good.

• 16:11Speaker 02

  Plans get crazy this time of year. Holiday shopping, family parties, seasonal activities. It never ends. All fun things, but everyone is running around like crazy.

• 16:19Speaker 01

  And you know what else is running? Your nose. It sure doesn't stop in this colder weather and that is no fun.

• 16:25Speaker 00

  But that's why you should never leave home without Kleenex Snap and Go. It's the ultra soft tissues you love. Now made to fit inside any bag. And a snap shut for clean tissue anytime, anywhere you need it.

• 16:34Speaker 02

  So this season, when you're out and about, there's no need to use an old napkin, toilet paper. Let's be real, your sleeve.

• 16:45Speaker 00

  For whatever happens next, grab Kleenex.

• 16:48Speaker 05

  Hey Jonas, 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.

• 17:11Speaker 00

  Okay. Can I just say something? I feel like Los Angeles is having a moment.

• 17:14Speaker 01

  I was gonna disagree.

• 17:16Speaker 00

  Have you guys heard of Los Angeles?

• 17:17Speaker 02

  Vegas apparently is having the moment.

• 17:19Speaker 01

  A traditional pool party. I like that she says it like that. You make it, you know what? You make that sound so classy. I will tell you what, it ain't. It is so sloppy and fun and you better prepare yourself. I think you need to go all in, have the best time in Vegas.

• 17:34Speaker 02

  Go all out.

• 17:35Speaker 01

  But to answer your question, any stories?

• 17:37Speaker 00

  My bachelor party was in Ibiza. We did have bachelor parties. First of all, Joe's was in Ibiza.

• 17:43Speaker 01

  Hello.

• 17:44Speaker 00

  Uh, here's a photo of Joe on his bachelor party. Yes, his shirt is torn.

• 17:49Speaker 02

  Yes, he has a crown of 1942 on his head.

• 17:51Speaker 00

  It was a trip. We actually played a football soccer match in, um, the Ibiza team stadium. It was a hundred degrees and we were all brutally hungover.

• 18:03Speaker 02

  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.

• 18:11Speaker 01

  As it should be.

• 18:12Speaker 00

  It's great. 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.

• 18:22Speaker 01

  It's always a better idea on paper.

• 18:24Speaker 00

  Yeah. Um, and then Kevin had a bachelor party, but it was kind of cut short because what were we doing? Something?

• 18:32Speaker 02

  We had to perform at the Disney, um, Christmas parade.

• 18:36Speaker 00

  You were, you're so salty as you said that just now.

• 18:38Speaker 01

  It was, we like to.

• 18:40Speaker 02

  I'm sorry, I'm gonna rephrase. We got to fly to Orlando to perform for the Disney Christmas parade.

• 18:45Speaker 00

  It was actually in Los Angeles or in California, but by the way, again, Los Angeles.

• 18:49Speaker 02

  It was in Orlando.

• 18:51Speaker 01

  Uh, it's in Orlando?

• 18:52Speaker 02

  It was Orlando.

• 18:53Speaker 00

  Then we took you to the Giants game, which was fun.

• 18:54Speaker 02

  We took you to the Giants game.

• 18:56Speaker 01

  It's gonna be so fun for her, by the way. I have zero photos from my trip. Excited for her to go on this bachelorette party. You're gonna have the best time.

• 19:01Speaker 00

  In Vegas too? Which DJ are you gonna see?

• 19:03Speaker 02

  Where should they go? Where should they go?

• 19:04Speaker 01

  We'll probably go see Marshmello if he's, if he's on, but my advice would be, uh, give yourself some time, a couple of hours between pool party.

• 19:14Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 19:14Speaker 01

  And dinner. That means disco nap.

• 19:17Speaker 00

  Naps are important.

• 19:18Speaker 01

  So you're gonna, you're gonna go to the, you're gonna have, you're gonna have some drinks, gonna have some fun, have some snacks at the pool and you should leave by like five. 4:35, you should go take a nap for at least three hours.

• 19:30Speaker 00

  Another thing is like a steam and sauna situation really helps.

• 19:33Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah. But you should go all out. It's gonna be a lot of fun.

• 19:36Speaker 00

  Have fun and have a great wedding.

• 19:38Speaker 01

  Woohoo!

• 19:38Speaker 02

  Totally.

• 19:39Speaker 01

  Okay. All right. Do we have more? Moss?

• 19:41Speaker 05

  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 Bug, which is my all time favorite song, or Love Me to Heaven, the acoustic version. They both speak to us. They both speak to our relationship. Wanted to get you guys' advice on which one you guys would suggest.

• 20:17Speaker 01

  That's great. Congratulations. 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.

• 20:25Speaker 00

  There's a guitar solo.

• 20:27Speaker 02

  Or not. And fireworks and they kiss. That'd be great.

• 20:29Speaker 01

  But they have to still do the whole ceremony before they kiss.

• 20:32Speaker 02

  Yeah, they do it after.

• 20:33Speaker 01

  They pick it back up. It's like, and um, and then they kiss.

• 20:40Speaker 00

  There's a Love Bug jazz version.

• 20:43Speaker 01

  A Love Bug jazz version, huh?

• 20:45Speaker 00

  Yeah, which is.

• 20:46Speaker 02

  That's cool.

• 20:47Speaker 01

  Jazzy love.

• 20:47Speaker 00

  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 the.

• 20:55Speaker 02

  Plus, it's her favorite.

• 20:57Speaker 01

  Yeah, and Love Me to Heaven feels a little.

• 20:59Speaker 00

  A little high energy.

• 21:00Speaker 02

  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.

• 21:06Speaker 00

  You've not heard that version, Kev?

• 21:07Speaker 02

  I mean, like, I was there.

• 21:08Speaker 00

  Of a song that we've released?

• 21:10Speaker 01

  Yeah, there's, or you could do it. You know what? I just found a very suave, burning up.

• 21:16Speaker 02

  There's actually the ones, the Bridgerton version of.

• 21:21Speaker 00

  There you go. That's a good idea.

• 21:23Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 21:23Speaker 01

  You could do this.

• 21:32Speaker 00

  Very wedding. It's giving wedding. Where's the grid? Or shout out?

• 21:36Speaker 01

  Shout out Jade Grey.

• 21:39Speaker 00

  Love this version.

• 21:49Speaker 01

  I love it.

• 21:55Speaker 01

  Here's, here's.

• 21:55Speaker 02

  Very emotional.

• 21:56Speaker 01

  Here's what we'll promise.

• 21:57Speaker 02

  I like it. Can she do Love Bug for her, for her wedding? Let's, let's see if we can make that happen.

• 22:00Speaker 01

  Jade Grey perform that version at your wedding. That'd be sick.

• 22:04Speaker 00

  That'd be amazing. Jade Grey, very talented. That's.

• 22:06Speaker 01

  Shout out by Jade Grey. Let's hear another voicemail.

• 22:08Speaker 05

  My name is Naiyevi. I am from Chicago. I am listening to your Hey Jonas podcast on my way to work. And I am just feeling really disillusioned and burnt out. 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 just, you know, I'm really burnt out. 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.

• 22:48Speaker 05

  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.

• 23:18Speaker 02

  Well, thank you so much for all of you that you do, especially in the neighborhood that you grew up in. That's so cool. But at the same time, and as you said, it could 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.

• 23:34Speaker 01

  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, make us question things. I think it's also, look, we, our algorithms can easily put us into a lane of negativity. And 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 deserve a moment of like relief.

• 24:19Speaker 01

  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 look, 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 gotta take care of that person because your work person and your person, person is, is different.

• 24:53Speaker 02

  You know what I'll do to help us out? We're gonna have two tickets waiting for you, just to say thank you for what you do. I'll make sure that happens.

• 24:59Speaker 00

  Nice. Love it. It's kind of moments like these where I feel like the thing that we do, podcasts or, or 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

• 25:19Speaker 00

  helping people, you know, and, and so I want to say first, thank you for what you do. Please stay encouraged to, because to Kevin's point,

• 25:32Speaker 00

  you know, we, we need our doctors to feel ready and willing and eager to, to go to work and to help people and save lives. And we need to continue to encourage people whose jobs are not just important, but.

• 25:51Speaker 02

  Critical.

• 25:52Speaker 00

  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, 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 we wear it as a badge of honor to, to get to bring some, some light into your, your very intense worlds. And on that note.

• 26:24Speaker 01

  This episode is brought to you by State Farm.

• 26:26Speaker 02

  There's something satisfying about getting something that fits you perfectly.

• 26:29Speaker 00

  Like child sized fuzzy socks?

• 26:31Speaker 02

  I was thinking more like a horror movie subscription, but sure.

• 26:34Speaker 00

  Like child sized fuzzy socks?

• 26:36Speaker 01

  And that's the point. When something is personalized for you, it fits differently. State Farm can help you personalize coverage to fit your life and budget.

• 26:43Speaker 00

  So basically, child sized fuzzy socks level fit?

• 26:45Speaker 01

  You said it, not me.

• 26:46Speaker 02

  Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there.

• 26:48Speaker 01

  Hey Jonas is brought to you by Almond Breeze. It's time for some questions from the producers.

• 26:52Speaker 00

  All right. Who started drinking Almond Breeze almond milk first?

• 26:55Speaker 02

  Actually, I think that was you, Nick.

• 26:56Speaker 01

  I think it was.

• 26:57Speaker 02

  Yeah, you're like, you know, guys, I tried this almond breeze in my coffee today.

• 27:01Speaker 01

  Changed the game for me.

• 27:02Speaker 00

  All right. Who's the most likely to finish the last carton of almond breeze and not replace it?

• 27:06Speaker 01

  That's Kevin.

• 27:07Speaker 00

  Kevin, of course.

• 27:08Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 27:08Speaker 02

  That's someone else's job.

• 27:09Speaker 01

  Take it, Kev.

• 27:10Speaker 00

  What's the most random place you drank almond breeze?

• 27:13Speaker 01

  The last time I visited the Empire State Building.

• 27:15Speaker 00

  Ah, that's a random place for sure. I've noticed you guys really like almond breeze almond milk. Who has the most specific way of drinking it?

• 27:22Speaker 01

  Ooh, Kevin's, you know what? I found very interesting is how you will drink a carton to yourself.

• 27:29Speaker 02

  Yeah, just straight up the dome.

• 27:30Speaker 01

  And he usually does it before show.

• 27:32Speaker 02

  Yeah, just really getting myself going.

• 27:34Speaker 01

  He needs it on stage.

• 27:35Speaker 00

  Okay, last question. Why do you guys like almond breeze so much?

• 27:38Speaker 02

  Well, it just tastes great. It's a great alternative.

• 27:40Speaker 00

  It is great.

• 27:41Speaker 01

  It's simply because it's really good.

• 27:42Speaker 00

  True. Try almond breeze. Trust us. It's really good. You've probably heard that good things come in threes.

• 27:47Speaker 02

  No, I've never heard that.

• 27:49Speaker 01

  Kevin. Yeah, you have. You've got bacon, lettuce, tomato, rock, paper, scissors.

• 27:54Speaker 00

  Joe, Nick, Kevin.

• 27:55Speaker 02

  Yeah, and that is a good one.

• 27:57Speaker 01

  Or because it's cold season, Kleenex lotion tissues.

• 28:00Speaker 02

  There's no three in Kleenex tissues.

• 28:03Speaker 01

  That's where you're wrong, Kev, my friend. Listen, Kleenex lotion tissues have three in one skin-loving benefits. It protects hands, soothes, and moisturizes your skin.

• 28:11Speaker 02

  I never realized you were so into skincare, Joe.

• 28:15Speaker 00

  Come on, who doesn't love to moisturize?

• 28:17Speaker 02

  You've got a good point.

• 28:18Speaker 01

  Oh, and don't forget to tell them about the three thick layers made with coconut oil and olive.

• 28:22Speaker 00

  Wow, good things really do come in threes.

• 28:24Speaker 01

  For whatever happens next, grab Kleenex.

• 28:27Speaker 05

  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 this month. 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 he's a really good dad of our two daughters. And so, yeah, I just want to get him something special or do something activity wise. So, maybe you can give me some advice on that.

• 28:59Speaker 02

  I know exactly what you should get him. You should get an edible arrangement from our actual new sponsor.

• 29:08Speaker 00

  No.

• 29:08Speaker 02

  They are official sponsored by Edible Arrangement. Look at this.

• 29:13Speaker 01

  Are you kidding me?

• 29:14Speaker 02

  I am not kidding. Yep, we did it, boys.

• 29:18Speaker 01

  The journey we take.

• 29:19Speaker 02

  To get it.

• 29:20Speaker 01

  By the way, the perfect gift.

• 29:22Speaker 02

  The perfect gift. Look at this. Who would not love this? Here you go.

• 29:27Speaker 01

  The gift that lasts about a couple of days.

• 29:30Speaker 02

  And the kids will love it, too.

• 29:32Speaker 01

  The thought that lasts forever. The gift that actually lasts a few days.

• 29:35Speaker 00

  Nice. Kevin, give us, give us a breakdown of what you got going on. You got some chocolate covered strawberries.

• 29:40Speaker 02

  Definitely looks chocolate covered strawberries.

• 29:42Speaker 01

  Now that you're sponsors, you should probably have a bite.

• 29:44Speaker 02

  Chocolate covered marshos, marshmallows, and this is called the.

• 29:48Speaker 00

  Marshmallow, bro.

• 29:49Speaker 02

  Marshmallow.

• 29:53Speaker 02

  This is actually the Moco Teeny, so you should definitely.

• 29:55Speaker 01

  What does that mean? Is there coffee in there?

• 29:56Speaker 02

  Is this the name of this, this beautiful thing? It's the Moco Teeny.

• 29:59Speaker 00

  Eat the marshmallow.

• 30:00Speaker 01

  As everybody knows, we are sponsored by Edible Arrangement, and we feel like you should get your husband an edible arrangement with, with something from his childhood. I think you should go nostalgic. He'll be like, oh, my gosh, how did you find this? Like, go, 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, that is, call his mom or dad, or cousin or uncle, or auntie, 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, that stretchy Hulk?

• 30:34Speaker 02

  Yep, that was good.

• 30:35Speaker 01

  What was it called?

• 30:36Speaker 02

  I also like the new Game Boys that you got me, Joe, that have all the games on them.

• 30:40Speaker 01

  They're so good. I have it in my room. I'm playing Pokemon right now. OG Pokemon.

• 30:45Speaker 02

  For everybody asking, yes, this is the Moco Teeny, and you should order that.

• 30:48Speaker 00

  I think we should pull a question from this bowl.

• 30:52Speaker 02

  Got it.

• 30:53Speaker 00

  Bowl game time.

• 30:54Speaker 01

  What do you think is your biggest red flag?

• 31:00Speaker 02

  I'll start. I can be messy.

• 31:03Speaker 01

  Yes, you can.

• 31:03Speaker 02

  And I can be judgmental and also reactionary. Is that what it is? 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, 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, so put together. So nice.

• 31:20Speaker 00

  I was hoping she noticed. I'm not gonna lie.

• 31:23Speaker 02

  She noticed.

• 31:24Speaker 00

  Okay, what's, what's a red flag about you, Joe?

• 31:26Speaker 01

  I don't know. I thought we'd tell each other what the red flags were.

• 31:29Speaker 00

  Oh, Kevin's just telling us his, though.

• 31:30Speaker 01

  Yeah, what's, what's mine, guys?

• 31:32Speaker 02

  I think that's more dangerous, though. If, I don't know. I don't wanna do that.

• 31:35Speaker 01

  I think it's, that's fun.

• 31:37Speaker 00

  I think it's fun.

• 31:39Speaker 00

  Like, you're annoying as fuck.

• 31:41Speaker 01

  That's true.

• 31:43Speaker 01

  Facts.

• 31:43Speaker 02

  You're like, really handsome, and it's annoying.

• 31:45Speaker 00

  Oh, my wife's.

• 31:46Speaker 01

  Priyanka, what's my red flag?

• 31:48Speaker 00

  What's Joe's red flag?

• 31:49Speaker 01

  What's my biggest red flag?

• 31:51Speaker 00

  You don't have any.

• 31:51Speaker 01

  There you go. Priyanka Chopra Jonas says, I don't have.

• 31:54Speaker 02

  Oh, Joe, Joe, Joe's, if, are we really doing this? Are we actually gonna tell each other our red flags?

• 32:00Speaker 01

  Yeah, go for it. What do I got?

• 32:02Speaker 00

  I have no red flags, too.

• 32:04Speaker 02

  You're the only, you're the only person, not only person, you, you know every food place better than everybody else.

• 32:09Speaker 00

  Oh, that's annoying, yeah.

• 32:10Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah.

• 32:11Speaker 00

  Sorry.

• 32:11Speaker 01

  I'm bad at, I'm bad at.

• 32:13Speaker 00

  Relinquishing control to others when making a plan.

• 32:16Speaker 01

  Yeah. I'll, I'll go to a city that either of you have been to.

• 32:19Speaker 00

  That I've lived in.

• 32:19Speaker 02

  And lived in.

• 32:20Speaker 00

  Literally lived in.

• 32:20Speaker 01

  And I'll tell you where you should, we should go for dinner.

• 32:23Speaker 00

  That's, that's.

• 32:24Speaker 01

  I'm getting better at that, but that's, you know.

• 32:26Speaker 02

  Yeah, I actually noticed that you are getting better at that. Actually, like.

• 32:29Speaker 01

  It's okay. Sometimes you gotta go with the flow, guys. Okay, Nick?

• 32:32Speaker 02

  Gotta go with the flow.

• 32:35Speaker 00

  Where do you wanna start?

• 32:36Speaker 01

  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.

• 32:48Speaker 02

  Yeah, but in our world with so many voices all the time, like, it can be tough, because.

• 32:53Speaker 00

  Also, like, when something annoys me, like, I, I get, like, stuck on it. I can't.

• 32:57Speaker 01

  Yeah, 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. And it could be like, my day's ruined.

• 33:07Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 33:07Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 33:07Speaker 01

  You can't move on past that.

• 33:09Speaker 00

  I see.

• 33:09Speaker 01

  And it could be about any situation.

• 33:10Speaker 02

  You get stuck.

• 33:11Speaker 01

  You picked one. What does it say?

• 33:12Speaker 00

  What's a childhood food or snack that you still think about?

• 33:15Speaker 01

  Di, what is it? Diet Coke Zero you're on?

• 33:17Speaker 00

  No, it's a Coke Zero Summer.

• 33:21Speaker 00

  Dunkaroos.

• 33:22Speaker 02

  Love it.

• 33:23Speaker 00

  Dunkaroos. And remember the Red Baron focaccia with the four cheese that we put in the microwave after school?

• 33:30Speaker 01

  I will say Lunchables and Dunkaroos were and are still my favorite. There was a time they came back around.

• 33:39Speaker 02

  Nutty Buddies. Remember these? The wafer cookie that had chocolate? You could peel, 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, whoa.

• 33:52Speaker 01

  Kev, you got a question?

• 33:53Speaker 02

  Yeah, I pulled one. If you no longer had to sleep, how would you spend those extra eight hours?

• 33:59Speaker 01

  Play a lot of Fortnite.

• 34:01Speaker 02

  Actually, Nick, you just went through this unintentionally for, like, a couple of months, so what'd you do with that extra eight hours?

• 34:06Speaker 01

  I can't sleep eight hours.

• 34:07Speaker 00

  I don't know. Eight hours is a dream, but yeah, it's not.

• 34:10Speaker 01

  That'd be amazing. I don't sleep eight hours. How, how often, what's your sleep, Kev? What numbers are we getting?

• 34:15Speaker 02

  Seven to eight.

• 34:16Speaker 00

  Yeah, remember, he's got a fancy bed, though.

• 34:18Speaker 02

  Oh, big update. We got a hamster.

• 34:20Speaker 00

  Oh, yeah, we were about to get the hamster when I, when I came to visit.

• 34:22Speaker 01

  What's the hamster's name?

• 34:23Speaker 02

  We got the hamster. Hamster's name is River.

• 34:26Speaker 00

  River. Great name.

• 34:27Speaker 02

  It's, it's like this.

• 34:29Speaker 00

  I asked him, I said, why River? He's like, I don't know.

• 34:32Speaker 01

  Why not?

• 34:33Speaker 02

  Why not?

• 34:34Speaker 01

  That's great.

• 34:35Speaker 02

  She's so in love with this hamster, and all she does is. Valentina. And she questions if it loves her every day. Don't we all? You think it loves me? Do you think it loves my mom?

• 34:46Speaker 01

  That is the wife's biggest question. I would, well, I think I would probably, I don't know, get super jacked.

• 34:53Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 34:54Speaker 01

  Yeah. Back to the eight hours of sleep. I would just be, I'd have a lot more time to exercise.

• 34:58Speaker 02

  Four hours of extra workouts every day?

• 34:59Speaker 01

  You know, I'm lucky if I get, if I get some time in. You know, you've got kids, you got life stuff.

• 35:05Speaker 02

  You guys are looking very vacated, and I'm really proud of you.

• 35:07Speaker 00

  Joe would like to read an excerpt from his new favorite book.

• 35:11Speaker 01

  This is Farts in the Wild by H.W. Schmelt.

• 35:15Speaker 00
