278 | WE’RE ON SPECIAL FORCES!

from Couple Things with Shawn and Andrew Hosted by Shawn Johnson + Andrew East

In this episode, we’re finally spilling a secret we kept for far too long.. which is all about our time on SPECIAL FORCES!! We take you through the experience day by day- what it was really like to be on the show, how we tackled it together as a couple, the ways it pushed us to our absolute limits, and how it broke us down (in the best way possible). Tune in tomorrow at 9PM Eastern on FOX (and every Thursday after that!)- and if you miss it live, you can catch it streaming the next day on Hulu. We’ll be recapping each episode here on the podcast, so we hope you watch along with us, share your thoughts, and join the conversation :) This was truly the most incredible journey we’ve ever been on, and we’re beyond honored to have been chosen. We are SO excited to relive it with you all, let’s do this! @RealityClubFox Love you guys!
