WE LET THE INTERNET INTERVIEW MY SON & HIS GIRLFRIEND

Who said “I love you” first? Who takes longer to text back? And what happens when you put a couple with decades of marriage in the same room as a couple still figuring it all out? In this episode, we sit down with our son Kemp and his girlfriend Catherine for a fun, honest, and occasionally hilarious conversation about dating, relationships, family, and all the little things that can make or break a romance. From first impressions and awkward misunderstandings to future plans, money habits, and relationship pet peeves, nothing is off limits. We also compare dating then versus dating now, talk about staying connected in a world full of distractions, and share a few relationship lessons learned the hard way. Whether you're newly dating, happily married, or somewhere in between, this episode is packed with laughs, relatable moments, and a few surprisingly good relationship takeaways. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 📻 ABOUT THE PODCAST 📻 From the guy who made your mornings unpredictable, Johnjay Van Es is bringing the same energy to the podcast world, just with fewer rules.
