Bidet's Up The B-Hole , Banzai Pipeline & Zen Rage
Manage episode 471712358 series 3384402
Filmed right from Marco’s home on the North Shore of Hawaii—right in the middle of the Pipe Masters competition—this special video episode of Broken Tiles gives us a rare, behind-the-scenes look at a 34-year marriage, all sparked by three deceptively simple questions.
The first one—"What would you never have done without me?"—opens the door to some eye-opening confessions. Brian admits he might never have fully "gotten his shit together" without Stacey’s influence, while she realizes she would never have experienced the slower pace of northern New York—an unexpected but perfect setting to raise their kids. And then there's the hilarious revelation: Stacey would have never, ever used a bidet in a public bathroom if not for Brian’s, uh, strong endorsement. That story somehow leads to a highly entertaining breakdown of their morning adventure hunting for Portuguese malasadas (aka delicious donuts) in Waikiki.
When they dive into each other’s "favorite imperfections," things get even more interesting. Stacey loves how Brian—who's always giving advice about balance and mindfulness—sometimes completely loses his own zen. Meanwhile, Brian gets a kick out of Stacey’s ever-changing approach in the kitchen, which has somehow led to an amusing role reversal. Their different worldviews come into focus when they answer which historical event they’d love to witness: Brian picks the Big Bang, Stacey goes for the sinking of the Titanic. (Interpret that how you will.)
But the most touching moment? When they call out each other’s hidden "superpowers." Brian’s got razor-sharp comedic timing—despite thinking he just yells to be funny—and Stacey has this natural ability to make people instantly feel at home. And, of course, their dog Mija steals the show, constantly interrupting and nearly taking down the podcast equipment in the process.
So, what would your partner say if you asked them these questions? Listen now, then try it for yourself—you might be surprised at what you learn.
