In this brief excerpt from the "Married To Mayhem" podcast, the two speakers engage in a candid, informal conversation. Speaker A expresses intense nervousness about having his wife present, then shares that he has been invited to join a board, describing the opportunity as exciting and fast‑moving. He also references the challenges of balancing work with having very small children, which sometimes distracts him from his partner. The dialogue shifts to a relationship practice they call “couch time,” a routine they use to connect, prompting Speaker B to ask for clarification. The exchange is marked by humor, a touch of tension, and a focus on personal and professional life integration.

I've never been this nervous in my life. My wife is here. I thought it was a great idea to bring her in to talk about—
I've never been this nervous. Could you stop being an ass?
You know, hun, I got invited to be on their board. Did I tell you that?
I stopped listening. That's what I'm gonna do from now on. It was very exciting and a sexy kind of line of work, and it took off like wildfire, so I didn't really have a lot of time to like second-guess you. Yeah, and I had very small children, so I wasn't always thinking about you. Yeah, yeah.
Oh, settle, settle. Is it taking her to swig at your wine? We got some Band-Aids out there. Oh yeah, right. You know, one thing I thought was very helpful was a— I don't know who came up with this, but we started doing— we called it couch time. Can you share what that was?
Yeah, I came up with that.
