This week on Relatable, we kick things off by admitting we may have forgotten to explain the entire premise of Love Is Blind before interviewing Kelly Chase. So, naturally, we attempt to correct the record.

Then, with the World Cup bringing more international attention to America, Sophia quizzes Bradley on some truly bizarre American things — from drive-thru funeral viewings and cheese in a can to deep-fried Coke, Bass Pro Shops, and whether the U.S. actually has a chance at winning the World Cup.

We also chat about Bradley’s first Father’s Day, paternity leave, cold plunging, Sophia’s postpartum hair update, motorbike chaos, and what happened when we started reading Reddit comments about Bradley.

In this episode:

• Our Love Is Blind correction
• World Cup fever in the Rose household
• The American things Bradley cannot believe are real
• Drive-thru funeral homes, deep-fried snacks, and Bass Pro Shops
• Bradley’s first Father’s Day
• Sophia’s six-month postpartum hair update
• Reddit’s thoughts on Bradley Rose
• Why loud motorbikes might be Bradley’s villain origin story

As always, it’s chaotic, honest, and exactly the kind of conversation you’d normally save for the group chat.

Love Is Blind fans (or the reality TV curious!), this one's for you.

This week we're joined by Kelly Chase from Season 1 of Love Is Blind for an honest conversation about what really happened behind the scenes of one of Netflix's biggest dating shows.

We talk about everything from the pods and producer influence to what it's actually like getting engaged to someone you've never seen before. Kelly also shares what wasn't shown on camera, what happened with Kenny after filming ended, and how the experience shaped her views on dating, love, rejection, and self-worth.

Whether you're a reality TV superfan or you've never watched an episode, this conversation is a fascinating look at what happens when real relationships collide with reality television.

In this episode:

• How Kelly ended up on Love Is Blind
• What dating in the pods is actually like
• The role producers play behind the scenes
• Whether the weddings are legally binding
• What happened between Kelly and Kenny after filming
• The emotional aftermath of reality TV
• Why Kelly believes the experience changed her for the better
• Reality TV myths, rumors, and secrets

This week we're talking about everything from Chloe's suspiciously accurate ability to know when we're coming home to Bradley's annual battle with hay fever.

We also revisit our thoughts on Stranger Things, debate whether emotional TV scenes are supposed to make you think about your spouse, and talk about a reel about fatherhood that unexpectedly got us both in our feelings.

Then for our main segment, we put our relationship to the test with questions we should absolutely know the answers to after 17 years together.

Things like:

• What does Sophia actually do for a living?
• Why did Sophia grow up all over the world?
• What was Bradley's first job?
• Where do we each consider "home"?
• What did we want to be when we grew up?

Turns out some questions are a lot harder to answer than they should be.
