Welcome everybody to win reality hits with Jackson, Brittany. We are so excited because we have a couple on today that we've actually talked about you guys a couple times.
All the podcasts already. Actually, but it is 90 day V on say Lauren and Alex hi guys. Thank you so much for coming. Welcome.
We are so excited to have you all. We are huge fans of 90 day fiance. It's one of the
only reality shows that we actually really love. Meaning because you know, when you do
it, it's hard kind of to watch reality shows because you know how it how they work and
everything. Yeah. The last thing I really want to do is watch reality TV when you're on reality TV.
You know, I don't watch myself on TV ever.
So we just enjoy watching you guys.
I feel like you're the out of all the 90s.
I think we're all the 90s.
Out of all the 90 day couples, I think we relate to you the most.
We've met a few people and they're all very nice, but I think we, we relate to you guys
most, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
And I think that you guys just from the get-go,
like, you could tell that you guys were really in love.
And I think that's the difference
with a lot of the couples on 90-day films.
I'm skeptical of that show.
I'm skeptical.
I think it now, it's a lot different than it used to be.
I think now people are doing it just to be on TV personally.
I think because I think it's when it started,
I think it was real, but now I think it's got to the point where it's like
Oh, here's a way to get on TV. It's kind of like that. It's kind of like the bachelor
Oh, here's a way to build my social media. It's not like
It's like the next the next biggest influencer
Funny that you mentioned that you don't watch yourself on TV because we are actually the same thing
No, but that was my first rule going into this and I told Lauren like we will never watch
us south and we don't want it to affect us.
We don't want to over think shit after that.
The overthinking is the worst for a reality TV people, you know?
I feel like that's the worst part for me.
We all relate to each other.
Maybe that's why we all relate to each other because we don't watch ourselves, but we watch
each other.
Like, yeah, watch you.
Yeah, yeah, I tried like obviously with the podcast,
we dive into some old episodes and I'm like,
I gotta watch, I'm like, I literally have to have a case
of beer or a couple shots of vodka or whatever.
Just to get a scene, I'm like, I can't watch this.
I just can't, I cringe at myself,
especially the earlier days, I cringe and I'm just like,
oh, I can't do it.
I make it very known that I don't watch it.
Even when I do talk shows and stuff like that,
they're like, you gotta make sure you watch the episode.
I'm like, okay, well, and then they'll get on.
And like, did you watch it?
I'm like, no.
No, you guys can just fill me in.
I lived it.
I don't feel like I need to watch it.
I already lived it.
So I know what I did.
So, anyway.
You know what you did.
I know what I did.
I was, I was, I was sorry.
You want to watch yourselves from like the first episodes?
No, no.
You want to know about it.
I want to thank you.
I was like the, episodes. No, no, no. What I'm thinking about is, I was like the villain.
I was like the part of the character.
I don't know you were the part.
I was the villain.
Everybody is a character and everybody needs to hate on somebody.
But now look at us, right?
We've got people families.
We've amazing spouses and like kudos to us.
Right.
For Thrive.
And also, you look amazing, Lauren.
You look absolutely incredible.
Congrats on the new baby girl.
She is so cute.
I'm so happy for you guys.
I was actually watching some of your spin off show today
to like kind of refresh my memory on everything.
And I was texting Lauren.
I was cracking up because Alex you were like, I
saw a lot of things in the hospital and it just like cracked me up when you were talking
about your birth.
I thought it was so cute and so real.
During the C-section, so we've progressed over each C-section and the very first one, Alex,
he was filming it on his phone and I was like just talk to me tell me I'm gonna be okay
And he literally looked at me goes I'm watching
You're very brave
That is hilarious
I had to make sure all the doctors you know doing everything right
Everything looks good. Oh, I know I was the same way
I had we had our baby during COVID and we was my mother-in-law and I
were the only ones allowed in the room and I brought an iPad.
iPad set up of iPhone.
I got in there.
I got into her goods.
I was watching.
I'm watching the doctors like, oh, if here we go and I'm lifting up her leg and I was
into it.
He was off count with the nurse like driving me insane.
She screaming at me.
She's like, you're not counting at the same time as the nurse's counting.
I'm like, oh my god. It was insane. So I want to take our listeners back really fast. In case they
don't watch 90 day fiance, if they live under a rock and don't watch it because we love that show.
I don't know what you're thinking if you don't watch it. I want to take everybody back and get
the story of how you guys met. This is my favorite story. I'll take this one that we actually
met on a birthright trip.
It's a trip to Israel for Jewish people
and I went on birthright and I was not
supposed to be on that trip.
I got moved on to it five days before
and I have a horrible, horrible
fear of flying and I get off the plane
and I'm like, whoo, living my best
life and Alex is standing
there with like his uniform and a hat. And I was like, who are you? And like, I looked at him and
I was like, are you our medic? And because every birthright trip has a medic or a security guard.
Definitely not much of a medic on that trip towards me, but I was like, this is going to be such an amazing
trip. And like, I was like, you're so hot. And so I get on the bus. And my co staff, Skyler,
who I kind of give him props for introducing us because he pushed for me to be on that trip.
He sat down and he was like, he's got a girlfriend. Like, don't even try. And I looked at Alex. And
I was like, you have a girlfriend. He was like, nope. And that was it. And it was not supposed to be when it is now.
It was supposed to be a hook up. But here we are 10 years later.
Wow. Kind of saved you. I want people to visualize.
I was laughing because you're like, whenever I was watching the show earlier today,
you were talking about it was just a hook up up and now we are married with three kids.
We're together.
That's here.
Yeah, awesome.
I think with girlfriends are accepted to go do birthright shifts basically.
Yeah, I got a couple of buddies that have done birthrights.
See, and they have it the best time.
I had a couple of buddies that have done the birthright thing and that's, it seems like
a really fun trip.
I mean, like they go with party.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, we love you guys and your
family is absolutely beautiful. I want to know, how do you
get started on a show like not today, fiance? Like, how did
that come about for you guys specifically? I wrote to them.
So this is obviously years ago, and it had to have been like
the second season with Ari and I was like, Alex, there's this
really famous show in America. It wasn't even popular.
It was the same as it was.
I'm gonna write to them and I wrote a novel and I said pictures of us like in
bikinis and looking good and one bikini once we're debating.
Yeah and so I I was like remember this show. I was like, they want to like interview us.
And now he's seven hours ahead because he's in Israel.
And so like two weeks later, I was like,
remember that interview.
I was like, so we're gonna fly to Canada and meet
and we're gonna be on a TV show.
And I don't know how we didn't run for the hills then,
but that's literally what happened.
It's crazy how things work out.
Like, are you so glad
that you did the show? Do you
have any regrets about doing
any of it? No, no regrets.
I'm very used to it now. I kind
of think now that she was she
knew what she was doing.
She went over there to hunt for
her. Her ticket to the to reality
TV. I was I was going to I was
going to chime in here because I
did watch a episode. I think all on time ago and
your dad made a funny comment.
This is nothing against you Alex, but your dad goes, what do you say?
There's 60 million men in America.
Like, you can't find one here.
You got to go.
And I thought that was just hilarious.
Nothing gets you.
You're a great guy or thing.
But I just thought that was so funny.
Because that's something my dad would say.
He'd be like, there's all these women here.
You got to go overseas to find one. Like, what's the big deal? So yeah, I thought that was funny. That's something my dad would say. There's all these women here. You got to go overseas to find one. What's the big deal? So you had to know.
It was tough at first. They really was. They were like grilling him hard. I think still a little
bit. How do you guys get along with the law and everything like that? You guys have a good
relationship with your other parents? It's different now that we're parents and my parents
are grandparents. So I think there's that we're parents and my parents are grandparents.
So, you know, I think there's a fine line of understanding
who's the parent.
But I actually can't really communicate with Alex's parents
so it's the blessing anacres.
So.
Mostly a blessing.
Mostly a blessing.
And really took to her parents, so it's so good.
Oh, if our parents could communicate,
it would be a nightmare. Oh, really? So don't language barrier obviously. I'm guessing. Oh yeah, her Alex's parents they speak
mostly Russian Ukrainian and they think I speak Hebrew and I don't speak Hebrew. They speak Hebrew
too and when they try to talk to her for some reason they switch to Hebrew which is their second
language just because they feel like she will understand it, but she doesn't understand it either.

I got to bring up something because we all know that Scandalville took the world by storm recently.
It was the biggest thing that everybody was talking about.
I'm going to follow the people in the community.
That was actually what I was going to bring.
I love that he didn't even know what we were talking about.
That is hilarious.
This is what we're going to need to. But I got to bring. I love that he didn't even know what we were talking about. That is hilarious. This is what we're gonna be doing too.
But I got to bring up because you guys won the MTV award
for Best Couple,
beating Tom Narayana.
Could you imagine if they would have won?
Yeah.
I will tell you, we met them.
So I was so pregnant with Ari,
and I was totally like fang and I was like, I was totally like
fan-girling over people, right? And so I went up to them and like other people too
and I introduced myself and I was like, I love you guys. You're so amazing. Ariana,
you're amazing. And he like looked at me like with disgust and I was like, bro,
you're wearing glasses and prod shoes don't even I was so
the big white
yeah
outfit with the black
product
platform but he looked at me
like with disgust and I was
like it only
really
yeah
I'm sure he thinks very highly
of himself let me tell you
yeah
really
yeah he's he's an interesting
individual. That's for sure. And you are right about him the whole time. I've always
been right. I'm very, very rarely wrong. Oh, that's his favorite line right now.
He's driving me crazy. I'm getting I think I'm going to make that a merch shirt.
Gosh, I'm never wrong. And then everything he wants to turn to a merch shirt to.
I'm like, golly.
Alex is always right. It's a curse.
Something.
It is a curse.
It is.
Sometimes you just got to shake your head and be like,
I told you and the people are like, I told you.
So not only did you guys do 90 day fiance,
you also had your after the 90 days with Lauren and Alexi
and then you also did pillow talk.
And Jackson, I loved pillow talk and we would always say,
we wish we could do
this. I like this is such a cool job. You basically get to, you know, sit in bed and work,
right? It was awesome. Like, yeah, it was awesome. I'm like, man, they should, they should
figure out a way to do this. Well, we finally got to do our peacock show, which was like
so much like pillow talk. So I know, like, fun, like, did you guys have so much fun doing it?
Cause it's basically like you just go downstairs and you get to talk crap
on other people.
It's the best because yeah, what you just said, you can do downstairs and work
and you get to talk about other people and guess what?
Nobody's talking about you back.
So you just get to grill about them and you're not going to get anything in return,
which is nice.
It's really every girl's dream.
It's so true.
Like, first off, we really do film in our bed.
And by the way, a lot of people have that, that's our bed.
And you get to eat and drink and bash people.
And it's accepted because people are on the other screen are like, oh my God,
I feel the same way.
Like, it's literally every girl's dream.
Yeah.
And we still do it.
Like, we love it.
Yeah. literally every girl's dream. Yeah, and we still do it. Like we love it.
Yeah, my family.
Problem with it is that I have to
hide my feet all the time.
Otherwise my food is blocking the whole screen.
It's not comfortable.
I'm sitting so.
That's a hilarious thought because we did
ours on the couch.
So we didn't really have to think about that.
But I get that.
We had our kid running around a little bit in our dogs.
What's that?
He's big in the feet world.
Yeah, he's big in the showroom.
Only fans.
Oh, yeah, start your only fan feet page.
I was so brilliant at the same thing.
I know people that are making like tons of money on them.
Like, Brittany, start a page.
I don't care.
I don't care.
I don't care.
We could feed.
We could feed.
Give me a second out't care. We could feed. We could feed. Give me a
seven out of five. Yeah. I had high score than the highest score. That's good. Yeah. It makes
the makes your money doing it. Why not? Jack says the Instagram that's dedicated just to his hands.
Yeah. I mean, it's it's weird. It's it's really weird, but you know what? Hey, if you want to
pay me for it for sure. Sure. I think of it. I'll use that money, go on vacation, because of our feet, hands, why not?
Yeah, I mean, like what they like.
Yeah, we live in a crazy world.
If you want to throw money around for people's feet, by all means, go for it.
I'm going to pimp your feet out.
I know that's why I go for it.
I don't care.
I know that we're married.
Throw those feet on there.
I don't care.
Sure.
You're men are going to pay you to look at your feet among your fore.
And if he starts, I agree.
I created like three NFTs of our feet.
I don't know if I can see.
I tried to sell them, but nobody bought them.
Oh, yeah, there was that girl.
I think it was a 90 day fiance that was like selling her
farts in a jar.
And then it's up in the hospital from it.
Like a stomach something. What? She was actually doing it. from it, like a stomach or something.
She was actually doing it.
It wasn't like a real holding her farts,
saving them for like to sell it.
And then she messed up her life.
Like, actually messed up her like,
she was hospitalized.
Like it's just people will buy anything.
She was hospitalized for holding her farts in.
Jack, you always tell me that you have to let them out
because you don't want to sour stomach.
As you'll get sour stomach.
I, yeah, I'm like, listen, I'm not gonna hold it in.
I got a sour stomach.
I'm not gonna get a sour stomach for a girl.
I'm gonna let it go.
I'm like, you're gonna get a sour stomach.
That's my trick.
I'm gonna get a sour stomach.
I must have missed that episode where she was hospitalized.
That was news to me.
I mean, now that, now I guess we're talking about,
what was her name, by the way?
Yeah, what was her name?
Do you guys remember?
Stephanie.
Stephanie.
Okay, so out of all the couples on 90 day fiance,
who is your favorite couple?
I mean, who do you guys relate to the most?
Or does it have to be who you relate to?
Just who do you like the most?
Yeah.
It's hard because like we said,
we don't really watch us.
Right. We don't. It's also past our bedtime.
I would say I relate to the most is Libyan Andre.
Libyan Andre.
I grew up friendly with them.
Yeah.
So Libyan, I are very much alike.
And Alex and Andre are kind of from the same part of the world.
Right.
And both, you know, Macho men.
Yeah, yeah.
I like them too. I do like them too. macho men. Yeah, I like them
too. I do like them too. I do,
I like them too. I also, uh,
their families pray, pray in the
best way. Brittany likes, um,
Brittany likes, um, the guy that's
that works on the oil rig, uh,
long girl, uh, yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah. Brittany likes them. I think
she just likes her outfit. She,
well, I like her, the way she
likes her handbags and her
outfits. But I like the way. Yeah, I think she's likes them. I think she just likes her outfit. Well, I like her, the way she does. She likes her handbags and her outfits. But I like the way.
Yeah, I think she's just funny.
I think she's so funny.
Like the way that she handles him and stuff,
she just cracks me up.
But we just love the show.
Yeah, we do.
We're a finger.
And what we also got to hang out with Angela one night,
we met her at a hotel one night.
And she's an interesting character.
Let me tell you, Angela is, she just needs her own thing.
She is, even, I just want to see her just in the day.
I just want to watch her.
I feel like, so with Angela, I feel like she's got such a big heart.
She's definitely somebody you want on your side.
But I am so terrified of her at the same time, you know what I mean?
She is like a runaway train.
Like she is like a hot
mess, but she's just so much fun to be around. She does have a big heart and she's so sweet.
She was nice to my son and she's talking about how she loves kids and she takes care of her kids,
but she is a hot mess with her stress. She stays in her lane. Yeah. You know what? She is reality TV gold.
She is. She is reality TV gold. I'm sure'm sure what did you say Alex? I couldn't hear you
I got I got to I got to think that TLC just loves her. Oh gosh
She's got to love her because you never know what you're getting out of her
What about your least favorite couple can you share that?
Do you have anybody that you don't get along with? I?
Know there's one Lauren, I know it.
I know it.
I know who you're exactly like my wife.
You're very similar, so I know it.
So to blow him.
Big edge, it doesn't like big edge.
I don't like him either.
He's dead.
Also no, no, from way back in the day,
who blocked me on Instagram for no reason.
Austin Thou, she's telling bad news.
She doesn't like them either.
Oh, she's telling me.
I don't like her either.
I don't like him either.
We met them at a tell-all
and went to a show.
She was training to be a nurse
and I have tried syndrome
and she was like, your disease.
I'm like, I am not contagious, honey.
Yeah, since then she wouldn't have go.
She wouldn't have go.
I know.
She wouldn't like,
I don't think that's the reason though.
That's just, she missed out on the thing. She missed out on the thing. I know just, she's just, she know how people just rubbed you the wrong way.
I just don't like, those are two people that I don't have no interest in the meeting.
He's weird.
Big head looks like Randall, Lollol, Lollol's ex fiance.
Very similar.
They're both the same.
Yeah.
Yeah, he's the most insecure human being on the planet.
That guy.
And he's also like not though at the same time.
Like he's so insecure, but not at the same time.
Like, just not a fan.
And I think everybody's well aware of it.
Yeah.
Just like Randall, not a fan.
Yeah.
We're over that.

What's something you can tell us that nobody knows about about out the show, whether it's your show or just 90 day in general.
What's something that it's like a nobody knows about from our show.
Yeah. something that it's like a nobody knows about. From our show, this is very true. I actually don't remember my hospital stays at all.
I was so drawn to remember seeing the crew
like two weeks later, I'm like, guys, how are you?
I think things are like, we were in your room.
And they were like, yeah, you were like fully talking
to the CEO of the hospital
and like acting him for Doritos and Dr. Pepper and like we couldn't even use what you were
saying because you wouldn't stop chomping like to this day, I thought they were pranking
me and they were like, no, we have pictures.
Oh my gosh.
So the cameras, is this for your pregnancy?
This is the camera.
This is the camera in the room, like filming everything, like everything your world was wide open.
I really filming most of it and then they would sneak in one
because we were like my cousin or something.
Yeah, we would say that this guy is my cousin and he's coming
to visit and then he would come in with that Osmo, what you
called that? Oh yeah, yeah, the Osmo camera. Yeah, yeah.
Some stuff. Don't mind this crazy guy.
It's just filming my vagina. I know.
And also, I, what we switched visitors, remember it was one and it died.
But also what people don't know, I think in general about reality TV is that
there are hours that go into film. Oh yeah. And like you literally see 30
seconds of it. I say this all the time.
No. One scene takes three hours and then there's a 30 second. You're like, Oh, okay, cool.
Like people also think that it happens in real time. Yeah. I know. And then people judge you
over like that little time that they see on the show or like, like, you guys have your kids on
the show, obviously. Do you get bothered by people trying to give you like parenting advice?
Or like, how do you deal with that?
It's so sensitive with this stuff.
If it's where you would like her, like, so I used to get under hold of them.
In the end of the day, her, you know, being so sensitive to that does affect her
parenting.
And that's the problem.
These people who don't know nothing about nothing
should not affect how you actually parents.
You can be moody or upset about whatever they said
but don't let it affect how you.
I love what I said.
It's a lot easier said than done.
I know, but.
I say the same thing to Brittany all the time.
I don't mean to catch up.
I say the same thing to her.
Like stop reading the comments,
stop diving into those damn social media holes
that you go into.
You're doing a great job.
Do you?
Don't worry about what Tim from Ohio says.
I think I'm really saying.
Yeah.
You guys are really incredible parents.
You're doing amazing.
And it's true.
Like I used to read the comments and that I really don't.
But then there's always like that one.
And you're like, and it's like a mom of four
and you're like, wait, you're telling me,
like when I pierced Ari's ears,
oh my God, it was the end of the world.
And people don't do it all the time,
but you guys are really incredible parents.
Your son is so happy all the time.
And I think that shows in your parenting.
Yeah, I mean, you guys are too.
It's, you know what, there'll be like a thousand
great comments and then it'll be that one. And you're like,
why am I hung up on this?
Comment with a guy with three followers. Like, like, you know, okay, you read it.
Did you get upset, but don't let it affect. Right.
And no, it's it's that's easy for you and I to say, but these girls are it's a
whole different.
I slept on the couch multiple times
because I got mad at a comment.
So I do the same thing.
That's where my overthinking comes into,
like if I like see a bad comment,
it can affect my entire day.
And I don't wanna be like that,
but I feel like I try to be such a positive person
majority of the time.
So when people are just being mean for no reason,
I just don't understand it.
And it just like can rub me the wrong way sometimes.
And this kind of goes into my next question, what's the, what do you think the biggest
misconception about 90 day fiancee is like, what are people? Do people come at you and
say, what, like, yeah, what's the biggest misconception is that they think that we meet and
get married within 90 days, like, that the production bring in the person and make them meet.
Everybody thinks that we just met for the first time, like the blind married
first sight. That's the thing. Everybody thinks it's married at first sight.
Right. Yeah.
Do you do you think it's changed because the show has got so popular?
And now I'm seeing the new couples and the couples are extremely attractive.
They're attractive couples. Like, so do you think now that it's changed
and now people just wanna be on TV
and they're just being like, okay, whatever now?
It's different now.
And you know what else I noticed?
Nobody knew about this show.
Nobody knew about this show,
so they didn't try to be on it.
You wanna ride that 15 minutes,
same as much as you can,
but then there are people who are smarter.
Ride it for 15 years. Yeah. We're going to 10 years. Yeah. Yeah. Same, same here. Same here.
And I always tell you about reality. Reality is just a foundation. It's going to end
one of these days. You got to use that build other businesses. I always use the Michael
Jordan thing. Michael Jordan made money through basketball. He didn't make that much where he made his money is Nike, Gatorade, like Air Jordan,
Jumpman. That's where he made his millions. You know, so I always use that. Yeah. You got to be smart,
you got to be grounded, you got to be humble, we got to understand that that you are just another
person. You have to train actor, you don't have like a full-time job.
Work 95 for seven years. That's another huge big exception. Maybe you can break it because
everybody tells me, get off your ass, you bomb and fight a job. Nobody knows. You know why
I'm glad you said that because I hate when people are like, how do you make money or what do you do?
Influencers not a job.
It really is.
I'm like, well, I make money.
Yeah, I mean, I think we live pretty well
being influencers.
I don't know about you, but I.
This is actually one of the hardest jobs,
especially at our age, like we're I'm 35.
Alex will be 35.
I know you guys around the same age range,
but we're competing with girls who are in their 20s.
First up, I don't have time to filter Photoshop.
I don't know how to.
Yeah.
And I think that's what actually makes us relatable and also gives people the,
the platform to hate on us more because they're,
they relate to us at the same time.
Yeah.
I've actually been lightly getting a so many,
so many people saying that I'm photoshopping my photos and it's driving me insane
Because love that you that we're on those empty. Yeah, yeah, I know
It's like I
Worked so hard and I did Jenny Craig and that was a whole other thing like whenever I did Jenny Craig
We both did yeah, we did it. I lost 45 pounds just on Jenny Craig alone.
Like I lost like 30 pounds before I started Jenny Craig and then I lost 40 pounds on Jenny Craig because I
didn't so much weight when I was pregnant. But it would make me so mad when people like try to act like I didn't like really work for it.
That's like so annoying to me.
Because the same exact thing I I was the biggest I was a Ari I looked at kindness because I was narrowed by
I was the biggest I was at Ari. I looked at kindness because I was narrow.
But after like before I started Jenny Craig,
I lost about 20 pounds and then on Jenny Craig,
I lost another 20 pounds and people are like,
you dropped me to a faster,
definitely doing those,
I'm like, no, it's, it won't just be a normal person.
I mean, Jenny Craig worked so good.
I'm so sad that they closed down.
That really made me sad.
I was eating that stuff.
So I was like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, Brittany said, get more protein shakes.
Get more of these. I loved it. I was eating it. I didn't eat it the right way.
I would dial ketchup. I put, I put ketchup on a one sauce on it all. I wouldn't eat it,
right? But I like the food for the most part. It's good. It really was.
I remember texting Brittany didn't like is it for it first?
You're like the first week that you've got this. Yeah.
It's like I think we're all very relatable in the sense that Alex and
Jackson are always right in Brittany and I are not on those
I'm big. Yeah, I mean, I worked hard on that thing.
I didn't I lost 10 pounds a month for like three my first three
months. Like I was like so strict on it. She was like the first week she was like I can't, I lost 10 pounds a month for like three, my first three months. Like I was like so strict on it.
She was like the first week she was like, I can't wait until three o'clock
that I get my little ice cream.
And I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, me while I'm eating bags of chips.
And I'm in front of me.
I'm like, it's hard.
It is hard.
I like it because it feels bad and then you do it when the hype would you eat.
Oh, I had the same time for me at least.
I felt very, very proud of her when she was doing it
because she was strict as well.
Yeah, she was too.
I had my own stash in the garage.
I had a snack covered in.
I would go cookies and post-its cakes and everything.
And I was like, why are you in the garage all the time?
I'm like, because I was eating my snacks.
Yeah, I found them one day.
And I was like, what the heck?
I can't reach it.
Yes.
I was like, what's up stairs?
I was, she'd be catching me in the garage,
like, what are you doing?
I'm like, I'm like, I'm like,
I'm like, I'm like,
I'm just shoving him, walking back in the house
with my mouth full and drinking a Coca-Cola.
I'm like,
ordering McDonald's right in front of me,
like, I was so pissed off.
I would sit out in the driveway and eat McDonald's
because I wouldn't go in the house because she would see it.
So she would get in the car and be like,
why is there French fries in here?
I'm like, oh shit, I forgot to,
he's like, I forgot to throw it away
before you got my car.
Oh, it's like crap.

Or wherever you get your podcasts.
How do you deal with the haters and trolls on social media?
I mean, I know with reality TV, we get it worse than like an actor would get because I think that people relate to us more like we were saying earlier
and like we're in their living rooms, you know what I mean?
I also think to just people are keyboard warriors. The same person that gives you a negative comment is the same person is going to
run up and ask for a picture.
Yeah.
But how do you guys specifically deal with like, Charles, do you block everybody?
Do you like Alex Alex?
Alex, I used to block.
Now I just don't care.
I just Alex doesn't really care at all, but for me, I'm a human being, right?
I'm on reality TV.
I'm an influencer.
I chose, we as a couple chose to put our lives out there, right?
But the reality is, is we still have feelings and emotions, and there have been plenty of times
where I have gone and cried.
I've closed the door.
I've gone in the shower and I've cried because people are cruel. Keyboard warriors are so mean. And just when you think you like can go back at them, they come back at you even worse.
And if you're just enjoying me now, you know, like, and it's always the person with like, 10 followers or somebody who's got like,
like positive vibes or like something like that in their bio. And then you're like,
what the heck are you doing? Yeah, God first.
Right. Here's the first to watch. They're the first to watch. And they're the first ones that are
gonna be like, oh my God, you're my favorite. Yeah. Probably this thing to our podcast right now too.
I always say, they always say when they stop talking about you is when you should worry.
That's, that's what I was always told. When they stop talking about you is when you worry.
So especially what we do, I guess.
So if they're talking about you, you're doing something right.
I think they definitely, it's easier for people to hear on us than on actors,
because they do think that they know us as people.
Nobody knows the actors. Nobody knows how Johnny Depp is Yeah, these roles, but we are real like he's not really a pirate kind of just to go back
And what you're saying before like we film for hours and hours and hours like you said
And I used to get all the hate I like jacks. You're crazy. You're a nut job
You go off because we would film for hours and hours and hours right and we would have for instance
If if Brittany and I would get an argument they're only only going to get to the point of where I went crazy.
OK, they didn't get to see how the fight started.
They didn't see how it ended.
They just see me going, oh, they're like, well, that guy's crazy.
Well, you didn't see the beginning.
We filmed for five hours a day.
You are crazy, though.
I am crazy a lot of times.
But no, there is no content, content, whatever,
connection to the scenes all the time.
It's not just only about the whole thing.
It can be for me, for example, I always film before work on my
land to bring it up to you.
Oh, he's off to me.
Wow.
That's what you can do.
It's after my 9 to 5 40 hours.
So then on the weekend, I'm filming.
What do you do?
Do you mind telling us what you do for your job?
I'm a distribution center manager for a watch company.
OK.
They're a big Victor, right?
Seven years.
Seven years, and I got to get the company.
Yeah, in Victor.
Yeah, I just bought my first designer watch.
I don't buy myself anything.
I shop at Walmart.
So I literally bought myself something because I thought,
you know, I'm gonna pass this down to my son.
So I bought my first breadling and I was just excited.
My first nice piece of thing, like I said,
Brittany does her shopping and all this,
but I shop at Walmart.
So I was like, you know what,
I'm gonna spoil myself a little bit.
I'm gonna get myself something nice.
And I thought, you know what,
this is something that I can pass down
and watch is appreciate and value.
So I'm like, this is something that, you know,
all the while I came home with Christian Dior shoes
and he went crazy on that.
That's what, and that's, yeah,
she has a shopping, a handbag problem.
And she came home the other day
with two things of Christian Dior shoes.
And I was like,
apron and best man. Yes, right. And you have a daughter now, so she can have all other day with two things and Christian Dior shoes and I was like, it's an investment.
Yes, right.
And you have a daughter now so she can have all that stuff down the road, you know.
You know what?
I'm really doing her favor.
Yeah.
I'm also doing like her future husband a favor or like my son's girlfriend's or wife's
favorite.
Yes.
She is.
But I was telling I'm like the state, the days of disposable income are over.
We are married now.
We have kids. We got to put kids through
college. Can you not buy your handbag
for on a Tuesday for? It was your shoes
okay, not handbag. It was on sale. And
if it fits you do it, but you know,
we're speaking of kids and finances.
We were just having a conversation
going from two to three kids
financially,
but aside from from being wild and it's
self going from two, we had a 1.3 under three.
And now there's three, three and under.
And aside from all the craziness and totally being outnumbered,
financially, that is.
Yeah, forget about college.
Doug, they care.
Three.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
My buddy just had twins and he's got what, three under two.
Yeah, I go, I go, I just want to know your diaper bill.
What's your diaper bill on my mind?
Oh my God, forget it.
Forget it.
Little little bit.
They care.
Oh, my boy, our boy's eat a lot.
Yeah, that's, that's gonna come soon.
Yeah, wait till they're teenagers.
Oh, yeah.
They're gonna eat everything.
Super.
I hand that a little bit of like cheaper. That's right. That's right. they're teenagers. Oh, yeah. They're gonna eat everything. What's cheaper? I hand that a little bit of like cheaper.
That's right.
That's right.
You're right.
You're right.
Let me get on my handbags now while I still can.
I mean, they're gonna know you by first name at Costco.
I have my shift.
I have my shift.
I have my shift.
I have my shift.
I have my shift.
I'm gonna start driving.
You're gonna start driving.
That's it.
Start, are you starting, you know, take care soon,
so I'll be able to go to the store finally.
Oh, that'll be nice for you.
I don't even like going to the store.
I love my Amazon Instacart stuff.
Like, I do that, I do that almost every time
I buy groceries, don't I?
Yeah, between that and our, like, lately,
we were using these factor meals that we love.
We used to go in the Instacart.
We don't really leave the house in,
we're home bodies. We don't like leave the house. And we're home bodies.
We don't like to leave the house.
We have our dream house.
We're very fortunate.
We have our dream home.
And we don't like to leave.
We have our pool.
We have our just sort of room.
We're becoming too much of hermit.
I think after COVID.
We become hermit after COVID.
Yeah, I think after COVID, we just didn't really go out as much.
And then we just stayed at home.
I don't like you more.
And then you had a son.
Yeah. And then you become parents. And when you had a son, and then you become parents,
and when you become a parent,
I may be honest speaking just for me,
but when I became a parent,
I realized how many people, like I don't like,
and like I, my circle has just gotten so small.
Yes.
And that's my choice.
Like I would rather spend my time with people.
And that's just what happens when you get older.
And I get older there.
Yeah, I find the same thing.
Like I don't have any time for my single friends anymore.
Like, I either have kids or you're married or you're not,
I really don't have any, I have nothing in common with them.
I kind of lost all that.
And I'm the same as you when it comes to anxiety.
Like, I am the most, before COVID, I was the most outgoing person.
I could go to the bar by myself.
I can travel by myself.
Now, after COVID, I've got so much anxiety.
I don't want to leave the house. I'm terrible socially, I've got so much anxiety. I don't wanna leave the house.
I'm terrible socially.
I have to like get back into it and find my own self
because COVID really messed with me
and I didn't really realize it until after COVID,
what it did to me.
Like you were going out and I'm like,
I don't wanna be out in public.
I don't even know how to be social.
And that wasn't me.
And it kind of hurt me.
I'm like, God, this is who I am.
This is why people like me because I'm social.
A lot of it also depends on where you were during COVID.
Because I'm here, honestly, it was not the same.
But, like, you're, or, or, or other places where there was such a huge...
Everybody came here without me.
It's a list and that and everybody's got to collect it so bad over here.
Nobody.
Oh, LA was insane. Like, we could not do anything.
You had to show your vaccine cards anywhere you went like it was like yeah
Not in Kentucky either from from like the company was close for a week and a half
That's it when they wow
We can have after that and we had two out of three COVID babies
Wow adjusting to that is what one was two are you me
what's going on
it's
born on our anniversary
all the
sweet
she was made during
COVID born on our
anniversary
that's so sweet that she was
born on your anniversary
that's special
I was so upset
oh you are
it's like having your
birthday and Christmas 11.m. I was
like, can you just wait 20
minutes? You're like, this is
my day to celebrate. I think
it's special wedding anniversary.
Yeah, we're going to swap
for a anniversary now to the
other one. We did the part in
history. We kind of did the same
thing. We haven't we are I
anniversary was what a couple
weeks ago haven't celebrated that we haven't gone on our honeymoon yet. We're still trying to take our honeymoon. We've been married for four thing. We have, we are, our anniversary was what, a couple weeks ago, haven't celebrated that.
We haven't gone on our honeymoon yet.
We're still trying to take our honeymoon.
We've been very, four years.
It's because we were filming Vanderpump rules during our, like our wedding was on Vanderpump
rule.
So it wasn't like we could go on a honeymoon because we still had the half of the season
to film.
Yeah.
And like I said, and now, like I said, it's so hard to talk to because you have three kids
and we have one, but now we have a child. It's like like we planned our anniversary and then there's like stuff comes up and it's just like
Do we not just order in you know me times?
So we did have it not to I'm jumping all over the place
We did have a date night and I remember we were going out
We were so excited for our date night, right? We got all dressed up. We're ready. We're like let's go to Hollywood
Let's get in no we were so excited. We got the babysitter all lined up. We're stoked.
We're getting lined up.
She's going to be, I'm going to get sexy.
We're going to be Hollywood.
We get out.
We lasted about.
We lasted about an hour.
We're like, do you want to go home?
I'm like, yeah, let's just go home and over.
Either we don't last long or we're just like,
I don't feel like going anymore.
Yeah, I don't feel like going anymore.
She's like, do you want to go anymore?
Let's just order food and stuff in the couch.
I'm like, yes.
We sound so fun.
I know we're right. I'm like, yes. We sound so fun. I know. We're right.
I'm just thinking why.
I started going back now. I don't know. I kind of want to go out
in the bar.
I know.
I just like get out of it.
A while. And now in the last, like, I don't know, a couple of
months, if you like, since I don't know, since Ari is this bigger
and then everything is in.
And I'm going to be on the good
sitter.
Yeah.
No, so you are going back to you also.
Hi. I'm doing all this stuff for four years. Imagine four years.
You know, either right or not. Yeah. Yeah. I guess this gets it kind of into my next
question about your. Oh, it's okay. Oh, baby. I guess this kind of gets into my next question about help. I mean, we just finally not finally recently found ourselves a sitter to slash nanny slash house cleaner.
And you don't it's hard and you don't want to share them anybody and you don't want them to tell you so we have events or parties at our house and we kind of keep our nanny hidden because we don't want our friends to steal.
Like they do that. They do.
There's nanny Steelers out
there.
There's nanny Steelers.
I literally book my sitter
like a month in advance.
So Alice and I are like,
all right, we've got to go on
this date night.
She's booked like that.
We got to go.
Right.
And I guess that gets into
the next thing we were going to
bring up.
How important to you guys is
date nights.
How important is it?
Like one on one date.
Date night on a scale of one to 10 is
definitely a 10. We go at least once a month out.
That's good. We also travel one to two times a year.
Just the two of us were very lucky. My parents are close
so they will watch all three of them. Oh, wow.
Very lucky. But we do go, but we go for like a weekend, but
we go out to dinner at least once a month because it's
so important to kind of just let loose let your hair down a little bit.
And I would prefer the sitter the morning after honestly.
Yeah.
Right.
It's important.
Yes, because like the baby don't care if you're hung over.
You still got to be a parent.
Yeah.
I did that one time.
One time I did that.
I got really hammered.
And I came home the next day like well the baby's up and like oh shit
He doesn't he doesn't care if you're drunk
Try to meet up with each other like three times and one time I actually had COVID
So I couldn't meet up. I remember what happened
Yeah, and I like actually got COVID that time and I was like crap.
Yeah, we definitely need to we definitely need to get together. I think we have a lot in common
and I think we would definitely have some fun together for sure. Oh, heck yeah. I would
I definitely agree. So I want to know what would you tell our listeners like what is your best
parenting advice?
Whatever works for you that's all that that's the right way. There's no right or wrong love you can pierce your daughter's ears It's really important to just keep your kid like breathing for the first year
But make sure the kids survives the first year, right?
breathing for the first year, but make sure the kid survives the first year, right? But it's okay to pierce your daughter's ears at two months. It's okay to introduce
them to foods when you think they're ready, like whatever works for you and your family.
That's it. It is what it is, like, is it? I love that.
I've had people literally tell me I used to walk at the mall because like AC, you know, air conditioning
and sales.
So I would go with Ari.
And somebody once told me because she was having such a tantrum, she said a meltdown.
She was a baby.
You were six months old.
Somebody said, if you can't control your child, then you shouldn't bring them out.
So that to your fate, like, to you?
Like I was walking.
There's a lot of perfect
people in the world, isn't there? I was walking like in circles just trying to like calm her down. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. It's a pretty stuck up wall she goes through.
I'm doing like what works for me. I was trying to hold her theater whenever she's a baby, right?
We've all been babies and I I was flabbergaston
and happened, but that's my advice is don't read the comments. Yep.
I don't read the comments. I'll always, I'll always write. That's my advice. Except after
a couple cocktails, sometimes that social media gets real. You know, after especially if
she comes home a little bit tipsy, she dives right into the comments. And not even mean to it just like happens. I don't know why.
Alex, what about you? Yeah, it's like hard not to do it. Alex, what about you?
What would you say would be your best parenting advice?
I mean, I don't know. Just your instincts. Yeah.
If your instincts says, you know, do it. Do it. It's not not.
That's it. That's good advice. So did you? Are you guys planning on your
in Florida, right? Are you in the Miami area? Yeah?
Yeah. Okay. So do you guys plan on staying there? I know one time we talked you guys were thinking about moving or whatever, but
Are you guys thinking about that still? Are you staying in Florida?
I'm jealous. The first of all, I just want to say Florida is my favorite place in the entire world. I love Florida.
So much. I love it. I love water parks. I love chain restaurants. I love Disney. That's where I want to be. He wants to be in Orlando. I just want to be at the fried fried food chain restaurants in water parks. That's all I want. Do I see us staying here forever? No, but for now.
For now, yeah.
What's the, where do you guys plan?
I go, where's the, what's the ideal place
that you guys want to go?
I think, I think I just have kind of
faced focus already.
I feel like I already, you know, I know.
I know, I know Florida, like I moved here
from, from Israel and I learned what is Florida,
which is not exactly the same as the rest of the states.
And if you look over here, we're already conquered.
Yeah, I don't know.
I want another step.
I want to learn something new when you're here.
Wow, yeah.
Would you ever go back to where you're from?
Israel.
Israel?
Yeah.
Would you do that?
Lauren, we would love to when they're a little older though so they can like understand
it more.
But they have to be walking and talking and be able to communicate.
Yeah, otherwise it's like waste of time because if I take this baby there, I just like
I don't remember anything.
I'm going to stay there forever.
Yeah, but that's definitely something that is not off the table with us and we've been
talking a lot about.
But first we just need to get out of this condo without thrown it.
Yeah.
Yeah, buying our house was like the best thing ever for us.
Yeah, it was just, it was a dream, especially just, like you said, you outgrow it, right?
And you know, once you get your own house, it's just nice.
It's like your own, your own thing.
So I understand what that's like.
How is, how is, how shopping?
Are you, are you guys in the process of that?
It's expensive.
It's right.
The market is crazy. It's flooded.
I know.
Our prices are as high as your price.
I know. It never used to be like that.
But now everybody had the same idea.
Let's all, once the COVID happened, everybody bounced to Florida.
And now the housing markets went crazy.
Now it's, we'll just stay here.
The interest rates are too high, also.
So all together, the prices and the interest rates.

Alex, I know on the show you said
you wanted four kids.
Are you guys still feeling that or are you done?
It's from day to day change.
You can't even wonder, but we can't have them right now.
First of all, because of her physical thing

And third of all, she's gonna do like
when you're getting up on a seat of a bed.

I got baby fever.
I just was like holding my friends twins yesterday. And I was just like, oh my gosh, they're just so cute. And I
just like have baby fever so bad. So many of my friends are pregnant right now too. And
like I just love having friends be pregnant at the same time, you know?
I like that too. Just because we did it so fast, back to back. This chapter is like going to be

Yeah, like I know.
So I'm like so ready for another one,

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.band. I like that. I love it.
I like that.
All right, we'll end with this last question.
If you had to do it all over again, what would you change?
Honestly, I don't think I would change anything.
No, Alex, I talked about this.
If we could go back, he would move to New York
and live there for a little bit before coming down here.
And we would travel a little bit more before kids, but other than that,
before kids, yeah, but we had had a discussion about it.
And then unbeknownst to us, I was pregnant with shy.
So, um, if I think I speak for both of us and I say, if we could redo it,
we would live in New York for at least a year, yeah, um, and travel more.
Other than that, you know, very blessed.
Yeah.
You guys got.
Yeah.
What we are very lucky.
I'm very thankful.
I'm done having kids.
The doctor was like, if you tell me you're pregnant,
go to a different doctor.
I'm not going to deal with you.
You're like, no more for you.
So I'm not going to push my luck.
And I'm excited for this new chapter. I'm anxious
to see all the hate that I'm going to get though. The mommy shaming for a mommy makeover.
Hey, listen, you got to do.
You're going to group on that. Yes.
Yeah. She's like, we know how you're filling afterwards because I've got stretch marks and loose skin
from crews. So like whenever I'm done having kids, I'm all for it. Like do whatever makes
you feel comfortable. And why doesn't matter what other people,
like why do other people think that they can like
comment about that?
It's like your own body.
Like,
because we're on social media, not only that,
like how many people have friends that did mommy makeovers
and it's okay, but like, oh God,
for a bit of reality star, does it?
Like I've documented my lifestyle chain through Jenny Craig
working out.
And you know what, some things I just can't enhance by themselves.
So I decided to do it the right way
and just kind of, I'm getting sucked in tucked.
Well, you're not gonna let me know how that goes.
I'm interested in this Whole Foods mommy make up.
I mean, like your body is, I'm repurposing my body.
I had tried an IUD, my body rejected it.
I got very sick.
So I was like, maybe I'm not supposed to get implants.
So I found an amazing doctor down here.
He doesn't do implants, he only takes them out
and he does like that sculpting
where he takes your body, stat and like sculpt your body.
And I'm very excited.
And you know, I'm down to my goal weight.
So that's it.
Good for you, girl.
Your future guy.
Yeah.
And you know what?
Like I said, it's another one.
I love the fact that you're very open about.
You're saying we're very open about it too.
I don't see there's any reason to not talk about it.
I got my books done on it.
Yeah, we talk about it.
You almost want to silence the haters
before they get there.
Silence them right ahead.
And really, yeah, I get work done.
So what?
So what?
I think that's why you got so much hate
a gone band or a pamper.
Like I've watched for years.
OK, I admit I watched for years.
And I feel like that's like you got a lot of hate
because you say what people are thinking.
And you're not scared to say it.
You guys are not scared to fight on TV.
You're not scared to show people.
This is the reality, couples fight.
People get drunk, we make stupid decisions in Mexico or not,
but it is what it is, you know.
And the reality is, is everybody has problems and issues,
but we just choose to share it.
And I would do it all over again,
given the opportunity.
I love it.
Yeah.
And I'm showing people, that's a misconception.
Is people think I'm not a real person
and then influencer isn't a job.
And I literally tell them come do my job for 48 hours
and you tell me how easy it is.
Yeah.
I agree with you 100%.
I will thank you so much.
You got your hands full.
Yeah.
And by the way, your kids are adorable.
They, I feel like they look like they could be triplets.
Like they all look so much alike.
Yeah, they look a lot alike.
So I think Ari and Shai are twins.
And, but Ari has Asher's personality.
Oh, well, they're adorable. Like, has you no idea how much Asher's personality. Oh, well, there are
a goal because you know, I do how much trouble he's in. Well,
they are so cute. Beautiful. I can't wait to meet you guys in
person. We absolutely adore your family and we just love you guys.
