our wildest stories: part 1

[@BA-hv7om]

Im a gymnastics fan. Shawn, years ago when i read you got married, i thought "he better not dim her light." He didnt. From a surface viewpoint, he brings out the best in you. Love you guys!

[@shannonpolk9366]

I know she is so low key about herself. He is constantly boosting her. ❤

[@lindaatkinson7500]

Gluten free…DOUGH😊!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sounds like a BLOW OUT of a trip! Your stories gave me EXPLOSIVE laughter. Ok enough of the punny jabs! Love you both. You being here on earth makes my life and so many others blessed!

[@ericah4232]

I love y’all’s stories!! Andrew is so funny telling the story of the bear!! 🐻

[@adrianaschulz701]

YOU GUYS!! I am here for this series!!! Give me like 3 seasons pls!🤩🤣 I was laughing the whole time!! you guys are great story tellers😅

[@victoriapeterson4843]

Just here to say that this was my favorite Couple Things Podcast of all time!! Hearing Shawn’s version of the Ecoli story, had me rolled over laughing!!! Y’all are awesome. Keep it coming!!

[@mistysierakowski4133]

Love this!! Andrew is a trip all by himself 😂. Can’t wait for more episodes. Please go well beyond 3!

[@LuckyLarue9429]

All three stories were gems! Can't wait for more. Something tells me they all revolve around Andrew's "questionable" decisions.

[@susannagiesey9657]

Wow. The timing! It's fun to look back and realize everything you've been through.

[@jenniferhaney8513]

Just listening to you both laugh when a memory pops into your head makes me giggle . Great stories❤️

[@michaelboykin3701]

Okay this could be a year long series. Absolutely LOVE these stories. Keep ‘em coming! Your dynamic as a couple is amazing. Thanks for sharing 😊😊😊

[@sitfit4876]

Andrew you are living life to the fullest. You are a riot!

[@kelsey7411]

“I think this is when I knew you were ridiculous”😂🤣😂

[@traceygreen6633]

I love listening to you two. You're humble and down to earth. Great qualities to relate to. Keeping it real. Awesome ❤

[@juliewright2795]

I love this! I laughed so hard. My husband and I try so hard to live a quiet, peaceful life and stuff like this always happens to us. We look back and laugh at it too, but definitely not in the moment haha. Keep the stories coming!

[@angiebluvspink]

I already watched part 2&3. I am really enjoying this series, you guys have lived a lot of life together! Hoping for a continuation of the series!

[@christeenhenry6448]

Oh my Goodness..... You Two were Cracking me up...😊 I cant wait to hear more....

[@sherrywiedow3530]

Hilarious and thanks for being humble and sharing!! We’ve all done some things we shouldn’t have but nice to know we’re in good company!!

[@ashleydougherty1015]

Okay I am SO excited for this series! I can’t wait for the next videos! So funny!!

[@rodfrazier8008]

Hilarious! Andrew needs to bottle that laugh and sell it for anxiety relief! He’s make a fortune! 😂

[@grietjiejonker7972]

I loved this episode! So relatable and genuine ❤️

[@lindaromanowiz1104]

I found myself laughing through most of this video.😅 I'm looking forward to the rest of the series, particularly Andrew's bear showdown, lol. 🐻

[@jillshiveley5377]

😂😂😂 You guys are hilarious and the way you describe them …. SO FUNNY!!! Thanks for creating Couple Things, and all the other ways you entertain us!!!! Shawn you’ve always been my favorite gymnast!! I was a gymnast, never Elite, but nevertheless I loved it!! Just a quick note, I have severe depression and have suffered with it for years. Listening to you guys helps me so much and I literally LOL,..lots!!! So, just wanted to say thanks, again for all you do!!! Drew, Jett and Bear are beyond beautiful and you both make awesome parents!!!💗

[@godsgirl1031]

I normally don't watch but listen to these in my air buds..but I had to watch this episode not just hearing it. Shawn, your expressions at these stories of y'all lives, priceless! 😂😂 Since doing several of these episodes, Andrew you must get into a lot of interesting fixes. 😂😂It def makes life not boring.

[@mdbtptblw]

We need more and more of these episodes! I laughed the whole episode.

[@reneegraber]

This title did not lie. These stories are WILD! But you know what? You have these stories from living some LIFE, so honestly kudos to you. I must admit I was cracking up at the last one, especially from Shawn’s reaction, like, “Is this for real right now? What is happening?” 😂 I was not laughing at your pain, Andrew. I wouldn’t wish that on anyone! I listen to The Minimalists Podcast, and Josh often says that comedy is tragedy plus time. That equation proved true in these scenarios. Overall though I’m just glad that everyone involved is okay now! Can’t wait for more wild stories in the future! It felt like sitting around a fun fireside chat hearing stories of the good ol’ days. Thank you for sharing!

[@jeffreylewis2939]

Love your stories, especially the bear one. Can't wait for more videos!

[@HelenMenke-j6y]

Oh I love this podcast. I can’t wait to hear more of these stories.

[@JA-zt1lx]

Love these! Keep them coming 😊

[@debbiesellers4494]

OH MY GOSH I love listening to you both. I was laughing so hard imagining these scenarios. What a great team you both are. God bless you both and keep your videos coming. 😂🤣

[@rachelzurkowski7715]

This is my favorite podcast by you so far! Thank you in advance for saving me from a future bear attack. Also, from a fellow survivor of E Coli, well done.

[@tots733]

These stories are fabulous! I hope you guys keep them coming!

[@karenhelser2834]

This video I had to listen to absolutely everything!!! Amazing stories and thank you for sharing. Just shows you are human, Andrew! You are humble and open. And I love, love, love your honest reactions, Shawn. It is written all over your faces that you love and support each other, in everything, including the most unexpected. Some day you two are going to have to write a book filled with these wacky and interesting life experiences. As someone who is much older than you, these life situations will spring up throughout the rest of your life including now with your precious children. Blessings to you!

[@vnokesCO]

Definitely wild stories! Good storytelling too. Your place is incredible! It'd be a dream to stay there.

[@ashleighschuler2148]

This video was everything omg… can’t wait for the next one

[@christie724]

OMG.....I couldn't stop laughing at the second "spoiler alert, I didn't make the Kansas NFL team". God bless you! Thank you so very much for sharing! Can see it now....some day your grand kids will see this video and say, yep, that's grandpa for you ❤😂

[@stephanieholguin2874]

Loved this episode!!

[@crystalschimmelman5227]

Can’t wait for more! Watching this video inspired me to capture stories my husband and I have too - thanks for the inspiration 😁 Also want to add a random expression for you - I REARLY comment on KZbin videos. But Shawn, I recently watched the “GrapeTherapy” video of you and Andrews interview and you shared in that interview that you “read each and every post.” I believe you! So I decided I wanted to be sure you guys know how much I love watching your stuff and am confident that you’ll get the message 😌 That said, I do have to admit, watching you two play games, watching Andrew get his legs waxed 😅….. and all the other fun, crazy shenanigans you two have captured on video would be so great to see more of again! That’s where I got hooked in the first place 😊!

[@cmiller415]

You guys have the best stories!!!!

[@amandamorse2392]

These stories are so enjoyable lol have you guys ever thought of writing a book of your adventures? 😅 I'm sure there's plenty!

[@jessicsdoney6366]

Always a pleasure to tune in here we have 3 3 and under so totally relatable to your situation ! God is so good !

[@mandynolan4752]

These were crazy stories!! Thanks for sharing! Andrew and the bear…. Yikes!!!

[@michellewilson9615]

I love this!! I’m excited for this series! Can’t wait to hear more stories! These were so good!

[@paigemaxwell8541]

Love this! I can’t wait for more! ♥️

[@SailingNomad17]

Wow! So funny, sad, realistic and awesome lol

[@joseeshelf]

Thank you for making my tuesday :D

[@linzlora]

This is probably my favorite episode of all time! 😂 Can’t wait for part 2!!

[@apoetsnote]

😂 love love love you guys!!

[@laurahansen7976]

Thanks for the laughs!

[@tiahorst7558]

Hahaha!!! These stories are GREAT😂🤣 made me LOL a couple of times😂

[@novamom1962]

I love these stories. I laughed so hard. I love y’all so much 💗❤️

[@jackiewilson2009]

Ok, just got through the first story. I didn't know what these were going to be but I knew they would be crazy and funny, I was right. I was laughing, cringing and loving all the description throughout the 1st story. 😂 I love all of your content, seeing your kids growing up, all the fun things you do as a family. You guys are just awesome. Sometimes I wish you weren't famous so we could be friends 😊 Y'all are so entertaining, seem so real, and I enjoy every video! Thank you!

[@theim2007]

Oh man these were so fun to listen to!

[@naturalPaths]

Is this Andrew East? This is the CDC. 🤦‍♀️ 😂

[@daniellerankin7591]

These stories combined with you two as humans make me want to be friends with you guys!! Such gems you are 💕🤗

[@charlenecharchar]

My favorite episode 😂❤😂...So, so funny 🤣😂🤣!

[@kerryburns9878]

Too funny! Keep these going!

[@morganfaranov7414]

Off to class but can’t wait to see this episode afterwards! Love you guys!!

[@ShawnandAndrew]

LOVE YOU

[@TweetyPAK7]

OMG! I had such a similar situation with a black bear! Heard something running through the leaves in the woods behind me. I thought the same thing--is there a person running towards me???!!! My stomach flipped! Talk about adrenaline! I turned around to see a bear hauling 90 towards me!! I didn't even have my hiking stick. The bear looked "upset" so I just stood there...nothing I could do (NEVER run from a black bear). And he ran past me! My legs were shaking so bad I could barely walk back to my car that was only like 50 feet away. I've never gotten over it and still paranoid in those woods even with bear spray. I feel your fear Andrew!!

[@mandynolan4752]

You two are amazing! Just love you guys

[@allisonjones8757]

LOVED this episode. The bear story is insane!

[@jennythefam]

I love yall and love this!!

[@DeliahAyala.2.14.91.]

Always prefer a bear to a human. You can scare most bears off. In AZ at least, the black bears remind me of stray dogs. They are very skittish. People? That can get dicey esp if weapons are involved. Love the stories!

[@ashleyharper584]

This was a lot of fun!

[@oboesax22]

I love how all these stories were Andrew focused. 😅😂

[@ambercreekmore2277]

Loved this episode 😂

[@AprilRoses-3]

Hysterical. You guys are the best. 😂

[@kimberlyparlapiano1115]

Shawn. Love the pod cast. I also LOVE your style. Plz tell me where to find that cozy sweat shirt? Also you have a light purple one also. Help a girl out. I want both and need direction. Thanks 😊

[@jml79bu]

Wild! Gotta hear more. Now wonder you didn't make it in the NFL.

[@MicheleWalkerWebb]

This was a riot. I expected more of Shawn's cackling... but I think she was upset looking back. Gymnast put more emphasis into their bodies than football players. I on the other hand couldn't stop laughing. 😅😅😅😅

[@lennarolan3792]

I really want to hear about you telling the Chiefs about the e-coli.

[@loraleepooley3669]

I would have just drunk the bottle of vodka. Forget the blisters.

[@Awakethysoul]

😂😂😂 love this!!

[@kiraknechtle7255]

Woodward is awesome! Do you know they dropped the gymnastics? We go each year for BMX.

[@Gabby88Girl]

So funny!

[@gilashroot8697]

I so want to see this, but I do not have time right now 😞. Going to have to find time soon.

[@BiscuitwHoneyandcrew]

OH!! 😂😂lol the BEAR STORY!!!

[@rlross49]

How many times did Andrew say “butt naked in a hot tub?” LOL

[@Julie-kb3mo]

Oh my gosh !!😦 The Trinidad/ Tobago trip was before you were married ?!

[@laurarodino-posenato5277]

Oh My Goodness !!!! i admit to laughing , sorry ! i remember when my daughter when she was 8 got hit in the nose with a softball at her playoff and my husband rushed her to urgent care , I met them there since i was on way home from work , the doctor asked how much blood did she loose and my husband said a quart!!!! The DR looked at me and my husband and said sir thats not possible. He was so nervous so the nurse had him go to another room to make sure he was ok and i stayed with our daughter for the xrays. we still remember that story as to how she lost a Quart of blood ! not really !

[@chanelplathe4801]

I loved this 😂 also looking for the link to the air bnb

[@deborahfields1338]

I have a scary bear story. My brother lives in the mountains outside of Fort Collins CO and he had his hummingbird feeders inside the entry door to refill. This happened a few months ago. In the middle of the night he was awoken to breaking glass. One bear was breaking in through a window in his guest room downstairs. Then another one fell through a glass panel right in his entry he was on a staircase looking down at a bear at the bottom of his stairs. He looked larger because he was standing above it on the stairs. He yelled and screamed at it and moved his arms, It was enough to scare them away. Insane!! Lesson: Do not leave food out on counters inside or food outside your home. They literally broke in because they smelled the sugar solution from the hummingbird feeders! 😱

[@Grandee7585]

Oh my goodness. Awful blisters and E. coli. You were definitely not on your A game for those try outs.

[@lisagreene4193]

awesome episode

[@glennarivero]

Where’s the link to the Air BnB?

[@theresaherring3699]

Crazy rugby try out story!!!😮

[@MitchellMadness]

It seems like God keeps throwing things to keep you away from the NFL. Unfortunately, he knows your stubborn so he has to make it very clear that you aren’t supposed to be there lol 🤣🤣🤣

[@monicamartin8161]

Link to the Airbnb please!

[@ninas4968]

Oh my gosh 😅❤ 😂

[@elenam6406]

Sounds like problems always with him 🤣🤣

[@aliceg1622]

He REALLY NEVEEERRRRRRRR gave the NFL a fair shot lol.

[@maryalicehuffstetler3026]

The bear story in East Tennessee. Sounds like you stayed at Blackberry Farms. ( just my opinion)

[@megaamybug]

I think it’s funny that all of these experiences revolve around Andrew and Shawn is the supportive partner.

[@asecmimosas4536]

Even if they could prove the contract violation, I don't think any NFL organization could prove harm. The purpose of contracts is to make the plaintiff whole. Given that none of the plaintiffs wanted to employ him, I don't think they lost anything.

[@kristinaarp9144]

HOW DOES ANDREW STILL HAVE FEET?!?😂😂😢 I’m only on the first story…and, holy crap!

[@CarmenZavala-i8i]

Ok so, I'm listening to the bear story for the 2nd time, and I still didn’t catch it... what color was the bear???

[@lacosanostra20]

I just clicked on this and pused to saying bet your wild stories will be very mundane

[@jelisamaria]

Please link the Airbnb

[@sueroork8452]

I get it, Andrew is a clown an you can save the world .

[@MitchellMadness]

Where is the link to the airbnb?

[@MitchellMadness]

Jk I see it now I’m just dumb🙃

[@haleydelpesce2022]

Hot take: Maybe all of these "random" health issues have taken place right before NFL tryouts because God didn't want you there. I have a feeling you're right where He wants you😊
