Andrew East

This is going to sound unromantic, but approach our marriage and our relationship like we did athletics with as much like intentionality and protecting it and taking care of it as we can.

And we just always know that the stronger teammates we are in life, the better parents we are, the better business people we are, the better friends.

And we just work, we work really, really hard to protect our marriage at all costs.

Whether that's, you know, things have felt strange in a phase of life where we're like, maybe we should go see a marriage counselor to see if we can do this better.

Or, you know, even talking about this show, we talked about this show for hours.

weeks before actually going on it, just saying, is this worth it?

What is the absolute worst case scenario thing that could happen?

And is it worth the risk?

And we're just always trying to make sure that we prioritize our marriage.

What did you think the worst case scenario would have been?

We had a lot of conversations about would the show pit us against each other?

And if they did, how would we approach that?

How would we deal with it?

So even going into interrogation,

It's funny because we were talking about Andrew's mortified by the dunking scene.

He's mortified that he decked Brie, so he apologizes every day.

I think it was the first time we felt like, oh yeah, this is it.

This is the show trying to get in between us.

And so it didn't even phase us and it wasn't a question because it was like, you can't shake it.

But yeah, he's just my best friend.
