Marriage Be Hard Podcast | Marcus & Angel Tanksley

[@Love_intentionally_]

We see them talk all the time and I’m still Uber excited about this one.

[@reneesmith983]

Facts.

[@dkr04091990]

Saaammmeeee

[@bigelowkaryn]

Absolutely

[@daniellejones2962]

Yooooo, me too.

[@josetteboatright]

Me too

[@Terrence_Cox]

I love that Angel and Marcus didn't feel forced to necessarily agree/accept the phrase "Marriage be hard" but was still able to acknowledge others might understand it differently.

[@jainicole]

I pray that marriage continues to not be hard for Angel and Marcus!! That's what I'm talking about. Divine connection.

[@2011misscofg]

I need the rest of the interview please this was good!

[@heARTFlowPodcast]

Agreed!!! I was wondering what happened, thought I kept messing it up. 😂

[@acloserwalkcommunity]

I had to keep looking cause I thought something went wrong lol

[@EbonynoIvory]

Melissa: You know alot of things but have you considered that maybe you don't know all the things? Kev: No, why would I consider something that isn't true? 😂😂😂

[@carolyngardner2014]

I enjoy the way Kevin & Liss do interviews with friends and keep it professional like they don’t hang out/be together everyday. Very professional 😊

[@TyLadyVols]

I love these sessions… maybe this is what the love hour can turn into. A weekly series with other couples? 👀

[@aic0809]

That’s an awesome idea!

[@ItsJustDiggs]

I’m so glad that Marcus and Angel spoke about marriage not being hard for them because all we hear about marriage is that it’s hard work. I do not subscribe to the idea that marriage has to be hard for everyone. If you both are whole, healed, & committed to each other, why would it be “hard”?

[@stacysummers3347]

I took issue with them saying that because for the rest of the interview they talked about all the reasons marriage IS hard even to the point of them going to therapy. Seven years in I can say that marriage is hard no matter who you are, but hard doesn't mean it is catastrophic or abusive.

[@ItsJustDiggs]

@@stacysummers3347 Good point. I took what they explained as that it takes effort to keep it going well. Something can require effort in order for it to work, but not necessarily be hard to deal with.

[@Talisa3636]

@@ItsJustDiggs 100%!!! Effort is great even if you don’t want to at the time. I think marriage can stretch you in a positive way if couples let it. We do get the message of “hard” a lot more in society. Very refreshing to see a different take on it during an interview.

[@kristensmith3151]

So glad to hear them Say it’s not hard. Married 18 years and it’s not hard. It’s intentional. But not hard. Glad I’m not alone in that.

[@angenetta7546]

I have been married 30 years and this was HELPFUL!!!!

[@iamladyblack1188]

We’ll that ended abruptly! Part 2 please. This was too good and I need to hear the rest!!! Quarantine wasn’t hard for my husband n I either. We made a good time of it. We were already homebodies. I think we’re ambiverts, so we do well with and without ppl. As long as we have each other, and our family!

[@DriaLee24]

This was a good conversation but that was an abrupt ending lol is there a part 2 coming?

[@naomiluxe0]

The video cut off out of nowhere y’all, it might’ve been an editing mistake

[@lizterry1205]

Just started this podcast and it’s exactly what I needed! Definitely going through all the ups and downs with my relationship. I love how the girls are always sticking together because that’s exactly how I think😂❤.

[@wandascott838]

I knew this was going to be good. I’ve learned so much about Angel and Marcus.

[@bibicat]

She go cray cray when ppl call her Angela...🤣🤣🤣

[@wandascott838]

@@bibicat Whew Chile that must’ve been spellcheck. You are so right. Let me see if I can edit it

[@oneflyladismith9761]

Marriage be hard from the unruly cousins/ churchy folks. I love it. ❤️

"When you don't allow people to go through their path it doesn't stick the same"

[@thebossdawghomie]

I love this community I see getting built. I remember when Kev was some funny Christian on the Internet. I heard of Kevin Samuels randomly and when researching why he was so controversial, I found Hafeez Baoku and the Roommates. That lead to Anthony O'neal at the table. Simultaneously I randomly found Tanksley Tv, and was surprised to learn Angel was Tank's wife whom I'd seen a few times in some Kevonstage productions. Then I learn about what Beleaf and Yvette Henry have going on, through his brother in law A.O., and I watch an interview with Kev and his wife. Now a video with Tank and Angel. I love seeing us supporting each other, putting each other on, and congratulating each other. If you thought you were just working and trying to be successful for your families, know that you all are doing a whole lot more, and glad that you're keeping God in the middle of it. Keep going, keep growing, and passing the torch!

[@nicoler8669]

This interview I was looking forward to the most. I was so excited like I don't see this group of people every week. But question is why it just cut off like that 😀

[@deliamorgan5766]

Angel and Marcus said marriage isn’t hard and I think a lot of things they have explained not only in this podcast but in all the others are in fact hard… we may not like the word “hard” but hard doesn’t and shouldn’t detract from the fact that it is still beautiful and worthwhile. Bought the book and loving it so far.

[@brittanybrown5950]

Everything Angel and Marcus described to me sounds like hard work especially around the 30 to 35 minute mark. They just appeared to be disagreeing for the sake of disagreeing when they said marriage isn’t hard. Marriage is hard but if you put in the work and time it is very rewarding.

[@tboogie38]

It’s all how you look at things. You can look at things from a positive angle or a negative one. As long as you are communicating and getting your issues resolved, does it really matter?

[@randydaboss1097]

I love yalls relationship. It's such friendship goals. Marcus is the man. He's the kind husband I aspire to be when I find my queen. 💪🏾

[@Nurseannmore]

I was waiting for this one, fun conversation. It’s just something about your chemistry together…. It’s the “ waiting for the pinecone to fall” for me. It actually make sence and funny at the same time.

[@MarianDrayton]

This convo was EVERYTHING!!! 🔥emoji! ✋🏾 emoji! 🤣🤣🤣 But in all seriousness, this shows that if two able bodied people CHOOSE to show up, it will continue to work, perfection isn’t needed. Just, y’all are the big Kuzzos who’s life I truly appreciate y’all for sharing! 🥰💜💜💜

[@mrserwin08]

This one is gonna be so much fun!!!

[@renewilson2540]

Two of my favorite married couples!

[@niqueybangz]

DAT PART 🔥

[@missyen07]

This interview was the equivalent of Kev & Liss going on “is this gonna start an argument” book promo and their first response to the question is “No, we don’t argue at all”. Come onnnn!

[@EshaBby444]

Exactly!!!!! I was reading through all the comments and I thought I was the only one that saw this...it's like they were actively pushing against the main point of the book lol I understand being protective of your marriage but it's okay to say it's difficult sometimes sheesh

[@jkmelvina]

Love these interviews. Kev Lisa Angel and Tank are wonderful. The upload was cut off abruptly. Will there be a part too

[@mymakersdaughter6041]

The previous interview cut off too. Not sure what is going on. I thought it was on my end.

[@courtneywatson1465]

Ummm… what happened to the rest of the interview?

[@TemujinScott80]

This was great! Is part 2 being posted soon?

[@Tolaqha]

This will be my favourite one, already know it!!

[@blazenlanie]

Oh Angel, I was also too tickled at your 54:44 snorting moment 😂. This is such an entertaining segment I had to keep rewinding! Must save to my "must watch/listen again" playlist

[@carlamccullum1738]

why did it cut off! Josh must have been at the controls lol dang foo!

[@TarynRenee]

Seriously loving and appreciating these. Reminds me of The Love Hour, which was a time I was in my single season wind waiting for marriage but also gleaning from y’all for experience and wisdom. Now, fast forward, I am 6 months married now and still looking to you guys for wisdom to stay married. Thank you for this. Can’t wait to read the book. I love you guys!! ❤❤❤

[@sweetnakai94]

YES ANGEL AND MARCUSSSS!! I swear I thought I was the only one who never thought marriage was hard!

[@opraha1113]

When they asked “Do you agree that marriage is hard?” And they said “no” I was like finally someone said it!! I’ve been married almost 10 years so I’m not as seasoned but I know a lot of married people who don’t think marriage is hard. It scared us because we kept thinking we’re doing something wrong because we don’t have a lot of these issues. We’re just both super easy going people. I think personality has a lot to do with it. We also come from a different culture so our perspective on marriage is a bit different. It always bothered me that they just made this blanket statement and it seemed like they cherry picked people that agree with them so I’m glad the Tanksleys offered a different perspective (although they contradicted themselves later on🥴) I love these two couples and every time they get together there’s so many gems that’s dropped.

[@latoyar628]

Agreed! Married for 10 years as well.

[@kennethhilton8700]

WAIT! WHERE'S THE REST?!?!🙏🏻

[@rereAL205]

Daaannng what happened to the rest of the interview??? So good!

[@Msheartofwisdom]

This was SOOOOO good. ❤ All of them were good but I think this one has the most laughter. This was a feel good one with really good nuggets of information

[@Alione]

Will there be a part II?

[@blerdinthecity]

I cant even focus cause I need this top Lis has on!! Ok let me finish cause I love y'all together. Oh! to hear the Tankselys say marriage isn't hard is refreshing.

[@lynntw743]

😂😂😂😂

[@msAngel711]

It’s good to know marriage isn’t “hard” for everyone. Especially since thats what we always hear. Even if they go through a “hard” season in the future (prayerfully not) it’s good to know that some people can be married for as long as them and not go through common trials. Lesson regarding that question: every marriage is different.

[@advice4u409]

I think they used the word challenging versus hard. They went on to describe the communication challenges typically expressed in marriages.

[@feliciafoxworth1]

@@advice4u409 exactly so marriage be hard(challenging

[@PollyP2019]

Right… this interview was filled with uncomfortable laughter in an effort to make it seem like they have it together … I see that they have a friendship based marriage and are successful professionally, but they were not being as transparent as this interview called for.

[@Reeses710]

I knew this would going to be a fun episode....love the conversations!

Homeschooled children have online teachers for pre-k to 12 grade learning online. The regular teachers and students weren't used to teaching online.

[@Thankful305]

10 minutes in and I love this dialogue!! Marcus is truly a servant to his wife when he says he hurts if his wife hurts♥!! THat is extremely unusual in the day and age we live in with all the narcissism and entitlement. I feel certain it's why their marriage is not "Hard". I just love this conversation ~ especially the laughter!! BUT.... when they are laughing, it hits my ears so hard I have my finger on the volume button and turn it way down. Then when y'all are talking, I can't hear what your saying and turn it up really loud---Not sure how I will get through this convo. :/ Solution: sound guy, use your controls to work this out --- loud then soft then loud then soft --- can you even it up??
