Jonas is so perfect for her. Look at the way they look at each other when the other one is talking.🥺
The way Jonas talks about Elyse is so beautiful and full of love and reminds me to be so grateful because my husband does the same thing with me. Everyone deserves a significant other that praises them and loves them so deeply
"...the sadness that people want to make you feel from their life." Super powerful way to look at the people who are rude and mean.
Directly on target.
I'm glad for that blessing for u
40 years ago, on our 1st date, my husband said, “You need to know I’m
going to marry you.” I smiled and said, “Ok!”
I recently "discovered" Elyse on reels and CANNOT get enough of her! There's such deep appreciation as she shows up 100% herself, messy hair, never in make-up, house clothes (love this term!) And in this episode when they all talk about their tolerances for heat and being in the heat...TY for that bc it seems like someone FINALLY gets me. GREAT convo, great episode!!
Geez, I should start posting, I look like this way too often.
You should make the guests larger and you in the small frame
THANK YOU, Elyse. From the bottom of my heart. You said something that made me cry... You said that sometimes people think you're a lesbian, and you almost thought of it as a compliment because people took that to mean that you were a "safe space" (or safe person). A) you ARE a safe space! Your authenticity and vulnerability make people feel that they can just be themselves. What a gift you've given us! And B) As a lesbian, I've never heard someone be misidentified as gay... and take it as a compliment. This cracked my heart wide open. The world is becoming a gentler place for people like me, but it's still pretty jarring and ugly at times. I'm not expressing myself well, but hopefully if you ever see this, you get the sentiment behind my words. Grateful for you, and grateful that your badass husband supports you so you can keep shining bright 🌞
I am married with 4 children and I have had a buzz cut since 8th grade and I am 63 years old now. I’ve been mistaken for or called a lesbian or gay or even sir because the way I dress is just casual sweatshirts jeans you know just casual clothes and I’ve been mistaken for a lesbian so many times that I can’t even count to me that is always a compliment. There’s seven kids in the family I come from and four of them are gay. My twin brother is, my oldest sister, my other sister and my oldest brother are gay so for me to be born in 1960 and see what they had to go through during the 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s has been a lot of sadness, heartache and rough times, tough times for all of them, but thankfully now they have more rights however it’s simply not enough and it. I don’t think it’ll ever be equal to how a heterosexual is accepted. So yeah I’ve been called lesbian for the last 50+ years and that’s a compliment to me and I am so happy that I grew up in a family with siblings as I did because it was just normal in my life. It’s funny that I would be out at the grocery store with all four of my kids who I had within a 5 1/2 year period so they were all really close together and I would be labeled as a lesbian even though I had all four of my children with me and my husband. Life is a trip and people are so judgmental, cruel, mean, bullying, and so much more. So I am a person that has been misidentified as a lesbian for 50+ years. I have always been a safe space for my gay and lesbian friends and family! It truly is a compliment to be labeled a lesbian because in my life there are some of the most incredible people I’ve ever had the chance to grow up with and to be friends with. ♥️😊👍🏻
@goodrich50 Thank you so much for taking the time to share this. My baby sister is straight as can be and has always stood up for me :) I love and treasure her for seeing me for me and knowing we should fight for the underdog ❤️
I completely agree with each and every word!
To hear the love and respect you two couples have for your spouse warms my heart and gives me hope for the future!
All these questions you guys asked her and not once did she say “ great question I’d love to tell you!!” 🤣😂
🤣🤣
Yes! I was waiting for her to say that!!
I LOVE THESE 4 HUMANS!!!! ✨💓✨
I did hear a few "thank yous" though.
hilarious 😂
I can't imagine that Elyse has very many haters at all, she's so lovely and relatable and funny.
Omgg how did I just find this! I love both of these couples and listen to both of your podcasts! I love when nice people find other nice people! Makes my heart full!
Just found this today, months after it was posted. It was so wonderful to see Elyse and Jonas interviewed together. Thank you!
Also my husband and I dated for 2 months decided we were getting married (we both knew the first date also) and being I was already divorced 2xs and he 1x both and we both brought 2 sons With us we went ring shopping and set a date legit for 3 weeks later. It was perfect! I have anxiety I prefer no surprises and he’s so so the same Lol! Btw we’re celebrating 17 years in May 🥰
That’s really sweet and encouraging. How did you guys meet?
@@RhymeandRamblings awe thank you! I know I am so so blessed 🥹. Well the location was a bar of course Lol! But each of our best friends set us up and boy did they know us well. ❤️
@@Just-wiggling-thru-life that’s awesome congratulations. Sounds like the secret is having a good best friend who knows you well. I went against my friends advice and married young and now going through a long and drawn out divorce 20 years later. I dream of finding my person one day or being happy single and finding close friends again.
@@RhymeandRamblingswhy did you go against your friends advice? was there anything he/she could have done/said to have changed your mind that he/she didn’t before your marriage?
@@stickerlady1774 I went against her advice because I thought I knew better. She only told me she thought it was a bad idea once so I thought she changed her mind after seeing us together more. I think it would have helped me if she had been more persistent.
She also married young and is still happily married so that wasn’t her complaint. She just didn’t think he was that into me. And she was right.
She went along with it though I think because I was so happy. I saw what I wanted to see and had next to no experience with relationships.
Yes!!! I emailed Couple Things a couple months ago requesting this interview. So excited to watch it!
That silent communication at 28:44. They know each other so well. ❤️
I love Elyse. She is fabulous!!!
This may be my favorite interview all year! They seem like genuinely beautiful people!
They/ y’all are so precious! I loved this so much! Thank you!
Elyse is my favorite! Great interview! And you guys know we have to know if you all hooked up to hang out. Elyse looked so excited about that!!!
You guys rock! Thanks for having them- two of my favorite couples!♥️♥️
Her husband is so so sweet.
It helps that she has personality. It is a major downside when trying to be out there while being socially awkward, trying to make friends when everyone already has all the friends they need, and there is no charisma behind your genuine self. I love her ability to capture it. It makes it more real.
Awesome! This was a great interview. They are a very sweet couple! I love how their relationship shows through ! AND I felt like there were things you had in common!
Is this real lol
I love this so muccchhh. 😭 It was like I was on a group date but y'all just giving me advice on how to thrive in a relationship.
What a wonderful couple! I so enjoyed this interview!❤️❤️❤️
I love this video. You can just see how much love and respect Jonas and Else have for each other. Their love and kindness for each other is what I want most in life. They seem like the most lovely people. 💛
I love the both of you!!! Great interview!!
I am so with her on the heat. Nothing over 70 is EVER NEEDED! I have had panic attacked when unable to get out of the heat.
So here’s how my husband surprised me with his proposal: I said we should date for six months at least before getting engaged… so he proposed the week before it was officially six months! I was so surprised that I thought the roses and decorations where he proposed were for someone else 🤣
Yes! Great couple to interview!
very good interview :) newly subscribed. Also i have a degree and I'm proud of it as it was one of the hardest things I've done although I have major anxiety and little support so did it on my own and eventually paid off the debt finally :). It HAS gotten me some great jobs with government where I can help people and would not have been hired without one, and yes, I was and am qualified. Good for everyone who is doing what they love without one though...it was very hard for some of us to get but here we are :). Adore Elyse's vulnerability and authenticity :) Keep up the great work!
Hahahaha "your personality is gone"
That killed me
I so feel Elyse regarding heat! I live in way-Northern California and in the last few years I've actually started to even despise the summers here, where it rarely gets over 100°. Lol! My thermostat is Never over 70°, even now when it's only 30° during the day....
What a fun interview and great guest! I am SUCH a fan!
Jonas' words at 27:44 are just so beautiful and what a gift to see why the world would love her too. Beautiful moment.
Great show thanks !!!
I just found her today!! Fabulous 🎉😂
I’ve been watching this podcast since the beginning and I have never laughed as hard as I did with this one 😂❤
Whoa! Your name is so similar. 😊
Great episode.
This is wonderful!
Love this, big fan of elyse.
Love this podcast
The interview I didn’t know I needed!!! I love her ❤️
And Jonas.
He is a special person. Someone who facilitates like that is a magic to those who appreciate them.
Perfect platform for this interview
During that whole interview and all of those questions, I was a little bummed out that somebody didn’t recognize Elyse and her incredible voice and pitch, you know when she does those videos where she sings in different keys or pitches or alto, soprano, etc., and she can hit them all! Then you listen to the compilation of all of those put together! It’s the most beautiful thing ever so I kind of wish you would’ve touched base on her perfect pitch.
You are my favorite podcast!
I thought I was the only one who brought up the "honor system" conversation 😂🤣😂🤣
Fake it till you make it!! Jk...... maybe 😏
Elyse is the sister i never had. ❤😭
elyse myers🥰♥
My boyfriend has made fun of me for years for saying "house clothes." I'm so glad to hear someone else say it. Until he pointed it out to me, I thought everybody knew and said "house clothes." 🙁🥴
My power couple's in one place 🤦🏼♀️I am so blessed 🙋🏼♀️Thank you God 🙌🏻💐💖
But you didn’t mention that the strangest predicaments find Elise wherever she goes, AND she has pictures for everything!!! 💙💙
LOVE her!!!!
Me, day late, dollar short... But loving it!!!! Following
YESSS! Also a fan girl! She may even be my girl crush at this point…seriously!
I've never seen the haters, but both of your guys are SNACKS! Do I need to move to the Midwest? Florida IS way too hot btw 😂...luckily in 8 months or so it'll only be in the 70's 😅
Love your content and your family. Andrew, were you in Jordan Rodgers wedding?
so true, the Florida heat makes me angry daily!!!!
Omaha is one of my favorite songs lol😂
just finding this, after watching so many videos they seem so normal in this one
Elyse please make movies about your life! :)
I fully adore this
I love this! What a great conversation with Elyse and Jonas. She is certainly very relatable. I connected to her and her vulnerability. If you ever get a chance, a few other couples/people I listen to that I think would be a great conversation are Colleen Ballinger and Erik Stocklin, Callie and Jeff Dauler, Amy Purdy and Daniel Gale, and Jordi and Kaitlin Vilasuso. All very different. All great conversations in their own rights.
Okay I’m like 5 mins in but I’ve got to say I was in a car accident when I was 18 not only in my pajamas but in my slippers as well 😳. Don’t worry they had hard soles 😂. So ya off in an ambulance in my pajamas and slippers.
8 yrs later my husband and I wanted ice cream and I started to leave looked down and was like ugh I’m in my pajamas and my slippers I should change because I now of course have this weird fear of driving in my pajamas and slippers. My husband chuckled 🤭 and is like it’s fine it’s legit 2 miles down the road you’re going through the drive thru 😏 welllll I call him 10 mins later ice cream in the car cup holders and say whelp babe there goes your theory I was just in a car accident my neck is kinda screwed up they want to take me by ambulance so can you meet me at the hospital. He literally started laughing and then another police officer comes in with his sirens and he’s like 😮Holy Shite! You’re being serious?! Yep yep I have no underwear on, in my pajamas pajamas and my slippers and here I go…againnnnn 🤦♀️ eyeieye. Now I’ve decided I just don’t give a crap it is what it is at this point I’ve done it 2xs soooo 🤷♀️ 😂😂😂 🤷♀️
In short listen to your mother 😂😂
I probably hate hot weather more than Elyse. I understand the pain! I was raised in the hot, humid Southeast with no air conditioning.
Im from Lawrence Kansas!
We absolutely need an update, pictures, and stories if you guys really did hang out like you said!
Right! Did they actually meet up?!?
Im doing an adjustment the yoga video standard of fitness models, skimpy clothes (not to vilify, but many watch and dont do because they think that a body that doesn’t look 5'7" 120 or less "can't bend like that".
For 5 years Ive been sporadically posting fit but real, mom of 3, trauma aware because im escaping it, yoga and meditation (gray hairs growing in and all).
Sporadically was the problem i can finally address, because consistency is important.
I really identify with the realism AND how that doesn't translate to no privacy boundaries
Medellin, Colombia is actually one of the most beautiful places and the people are amazing!! Look it up and do research. It is NOT just about drugs- You lost out! Next time becareful about what you say. Thanks.
Kartahena wait for me ❤
Yaaaas.
Favorite quality
I vulnerability requires great strength of spirit.
Its unpretensious, un-postured openness
Sounds like a village (like one of those apartment complexes with grocier, coffee, real people dance studio, restaurant, daycare, park, etc) is your idea?
Fun fact; I love Chicago. It’s my home and my favorite place to be. However, crime goes up significantly when it gets hot. Hot=mean
Great interview!
I feel bad for Elyse when she goes through Menopause 🔥🔥🔥
I am a hot headed devil in the heat.
Lmfao
Did y’all hang out?!?
Oh the unrelenting heat! I don’t receive it. Anything above 70 is seriously the last stop before hell.
I hate it. That phrase *sigh* ..."When you know, ...you know." I hated it when I was single. I hate it more after getting married. I hate it because it sucks so bad that it's true.
DNT no her... But she gets me better then 75% of the closest ppl in my life 🩷🩷🩷
Missouri girl here. You all are making me soooo home sick.
Just need to know:
Did you both wear house clothes to the sunrise???
Ok, try to get a job without a degree. I quit, I owned a successful business and then got hurt and couldn't continue. So now, later in life, I can't find a job that doesn't involve physical work I cannot do. Or extreme CSR from home which my mental health cannot do. Help.
I tell my kids they can't wear their house clothes out in public. With such a loss of civility in our culture, I'm hoping to maintain something that says we live within a society. Maybe it's weird, but I like to maintain it.
My husband and I also spent multiple days in a row when we first got together. Going on 17 years together and 9 years married.

Must kbò
I’m going to love my friends, no matter what but I have to say if we’re gonna be in close proximity, I am hoping that they will be deodorized a bit at the very least 😁
I really wanted to like you guys because you had elyse on but then you sound so much like a sell out when you start promoting in that flat way that you guys do.
But wherever there's money right?
