Video Summary
AI GeneratedThe Jonas brothers share a candid and lighthearted conversation using a \"tithing bowl\" of \"would you rather\" questions. The discussion ranges from humorous hypothetical dilemmas and embarrassing acting audition failures to personal struggles with addiction and a detailed debate on dental hygiene and the medical links between diabetes and oral health.
Well, I think, I think we're supposed to refer to them as, Hey, you, Hey, Hey, you, you listener
suggests that they're just there to listen.
We want to engage in real meaningful conversation.
That's a great segue, Nick.
Yeah.
Speaking segue to what?
Your bowl.
Okay.
So this is a bowl.
We brought from home.
We did.
We all live together.
Everyone knows the Jones brothers all live together in a fire house and bunk beds.
So this bowl is a, this actually comes, this goes, this dates back to our early years as
pastors kids.
This was a tithing bowl.
This is a tithing bowl.
So if you reach in long and you, you, you hope you can find $1 bills.
The other day we were asking each other questions and we felt like, okay, you know what?
We feel like our audience knows this already.
When you hear the sound, hold on this sound, hold on, it's gotta be better than that.
There you go.
Oh yeah.
When you hear that sound, that means it's time for a bowl question and we go bowl.
And if, and if we don't believe it, we go bullshit.
Love it.
I'll back it up a little bit further with you, Joe.
You always bring card games and other things to dinner.
So I do.
You, you engage the audience card game, meaning like get to know you games or get to know
you better games.
You know?
Yeah.
For example, they have random questions.
Just like your, our listeners call in or email us or text us or tweet us, whatever it is.
We love to hear from you and you write us and we specifically asked that it wasn't Jonas
related.
I mean, it could be about our personal lives, but we like, it's not like, what was the inspiration
behind this song?
Because I feel like those are things, those are things we've already discussed or I don't
know, it's our podcast.
We can do whatever the hell we want.
So for example, Kevin, would you rather have your group chat leaked on your, or your camera
roll leaked?
Hmm.
Group chat.
Oh, camera roll.
What's on the camera roll.
I'd rather have that leaked.
Less.
Less is on the camera roll probably.
You sure about that?
Less.
What does that mean?
Less nudity.
He's nervous.
I want to paint the picture for everyone listening right now.
Does the camera roll include the hidden account, like hidden, like one?
I don't know.
What's there to hide?
Well, there's more in that file.
I'm asking.
Camera roll is not that file.
So that's what I'm asking.
I think you're safe then.
Password protected.
Now you have to leak it.
Oh, that's, oh, I didn't know that.
Got it.
You actually have to do the thing.
I'd rather, yeah, self-deprecate than the group chat so that you never know what people
say.
What about you, Joe?
Group chat or camera roll?
Or jelly roll?
No.
I would say camera roll or group chat.
I would say probably group chat.
Some spicy stuff on some of those.
Hard to lie if it's your face in the photo, you know?
Yeah, it's true.
Although with the power of AI, this episode is sponsored by AI.
Open AI.
Claude.
All of it.
Every AI possible.
Um, yeah, I feel like it would be more damaging.
I feel like, you know, my texts are pretty wild, but I don't think there is anything
incriminating.
But the thing is about the text, they're group chats, meaning like the other things people
could say.
Yeah, there's some wild cards in some of our group chats.
That's on them.
Exactly.
I can think of two people in particular, but I'd be like, this is worse for you than it
is for me, which is why in those situations when they send one of those spicy messages
out on the group chat, spicy meaning, you know.
Picante.
Thank you.
Como se dice?
Spicy?
Picante.
This actually, this episode is sponsored by.
Picante.
Picante light.
Wherever you get your spice.
Let's go to the next questionable.
Okay.
Nick, why don't you pull one?
It's satisfying every time.
Who are you asking?
It can be like all of us can answer it.
Yeah, I think it's just like, it's because we don't know what they are, so it doesn't
really matter.
Would you rather always be 30 minutes early or 30 minutes late?
Early.
You'd rather be early by 30 minutes?
By 30.
30 is a lot though.
A lot.
A long time.
If I'm flying, I don't like to be, I like to be much earlier than 30 minutes for your
flight.
I would definitely have to be.
You cut it close.
Kevin likes to cut it close.
To flights.
I'm like, I'm there in time.
Sure, but.
If I'm checking bags, I'm definitely like.
This isn't a critique.
No, no, I'm just saying I definitely am close to the cutoffs.
You like to go right up to the last minute.
And walk right on the plane.
I would like to be early because I think, you know, people take real offense to being
late and I don't like offending people, but also don't want to spend, you know, 30 minutes
over X number of things I would have to be at per day could, could rack up pretty fast.
Oh my gosh.
Suddenly eight hours of my day.
It's just being early.
Well, that's kind of an unrealistic number.
Let's say, let's say four hours of my day, five hours maybe.
It's just being early.
Waste of time.
I'll tell you a story about being early.
That was a ruiner for me.
It was an audition.
I was auditioning for, oh boy, I'm blanking.
And no, we don't need to name all the things I didn't get.
I would like to.
It's one or two of them.
What's the one about the news anchors?
The amazing actresses that are.
Morning show.
The morning show.
And it was the morning show.
I was by callback and it was to play like a young anchor that they have in the show.
Like a love interest for Jennifer Aniston.
Jennifer Aniston.
I think it was the kind of like, very like.
Handsome, talented, good looking, male, you know, like very right wingy, like podcast
host guy.
Couldn't be me.
Interesting.
Long story short, I show up early, they're like, oh, and they did this thing, which was
very kind, but they're like, oh, we have a, cause it was auditioning a lot of.
Very handsome.
A very handsome young gentleman.
And they were like, oh, we have a, we have a private room for you.
I was like, lovely.
Okay.
So they put me in this private room.
And then this is the saddest room you can imagine.
Similar to this room.
If we took away the Shane Gray dolls and it was just these little blinds that all the
lights were off and they didn't work.
And I could hear clear as day.
All the guys auditioning.
And I was like, they're like, we'll just have two guys before you.
And these guys.
Killing it or crushing it.
Like, ah, oh my God.
I can hear as clear.
I'm I'm trying.
I didn't bring headphones.
So I'm just like literally sitting in silence, reading the lines.
And I'm like, and I go in and I just like crash and burn.
So I can't even, I did the terrible thing.
They're like, oh, you can, you can, you can use the, you can read off off paper for this.
If you want.
I'm like, I got it.
Oh, I'm like, I'm good.
And it was literally like, I don't even know what I'm auditioning for.
Just like me forgetting the name of the morning show.
It was just gone for me.
And it was such a bad audition.
I was like, oh, bad auditions happen.
Would you say that that's your worst audition?
Cause I have, I've got plenty of terrible, I think auditions.
I think also wicked was a bit of a strange one because there was like incredible theater
vocalists I could hear clear as day.
I feel like with the advances in technology, nobody should be waiting for anything.
It's just be like, all right, you're up at this time, three 58 show up, we'll walk you
right in the door.
So I met with a director for this, this big movie.
I'm not going to say what movie it is and people can guess in the comments or wherever
Passion of the Christ.
Yeah.
Resurrection.
I auditioned for this big movie and I didn't really realize that it was a, it was a director
meeting and the director also produces as most do.
And so I went into the meeting and started talking about the film and what the take was
going to be in this, that, the other, and, and thought he was just producing the film.
Didn't realize that when I asked him, oh, and who's directing?
And his response was, well, me, I was like, you were like, ah, gotcha.
I wanted to die inside at that moment.
I did die inside.
And one of our very good friends happened to be in the movie in the end.
And I called him after the meeting and I said, Hey, I think I screwed, screwed up.
I asked the director who's directing, he said, yeah, that's tough, man.
It's a tough one to come back from that one.
It's okay.
Things happen.
I had an audition once when we were younger and the guy that was auditioning me said to
me in the room, maybe we try it a different way.
Cause I can clearly tell that you don't have any acting experience.
Well, I was like, okay, guess I'm not getting this role on that note.
How about you pick a question from the bowl?
Cool.
Would you rather always have to sing instead of talk or always have to dance instead of
walk?
I'm really confused.
One more time.
Sing instead of talk or always have to dance instead of walk.
Only, you know, I was thinking about it actually during sound check today.
You think about this question?
A little bit.
And I don't know why my brain went there, but I was looking at this catwalk and I was
like, it was during our mega mix.
And for those of you who don't know what that is, we do a medley of songs from our
discography, but solo Nick DNC solo Joe.
Yeah. And it's mega.
I was looking at the catwalk and it's a, it's a fat kid, like a thick, thick boy
catwalk.
Wow.
And I was like, damn, I wish I could do some flips on that thing.
We used to flip a lot.
Yeah, we did.
But I'm like, there are certain musicians out there who are just like, they'll just
like real quick.
Let me just bust out.
I'll say his double, say his name on the pod.
Say it.
I can't.
I'm a future guest of the pod.
I'm sure Benson, Benson, Benson, he's going to flip, dude.
He's fully flipped.
He's flipping right now.
I want to see the flips in life.
I think it's great.
No, no.
I think it's amazing.
I'm just saying, like, I was sitting there, I'm like, damn, it'd be so cool if I
was just like, like Nick singing.
I'm like, bam, bam, bam, bam.
And then I'm just flipping and, and also just like, cause we had Teenie as a
special guest in Argentina.
And like, she has like this very like popular, like move that she does now on
stage.
And I'm seeing it all over TikTok and I'm like, it's just casual.
Like, let's just, she's a signature move.
It's kind of a signature thing.
So it was her shoulders.
It's like her shoulders.
That's cool.
Just check it out.
It's a lot of shoulders.
We need to do a signature move.
Yeah, we do.
We do little things, little things.
We all turn at the same time.
Yeah, it's really impressive.
We all can turn at the same time.
And sometimes, sometimes we can't.
And sometimes you forget.
So to answer that question, I would like to be able to dance anywhere I go.
And people, I want to hear like, Ooh, yeah, I think dancing would be special.
I'm going to put one more and then I think we're going to jump on to more
important things.
I love that.
True, true, true.
Let's do this one real quick.
Would you rather always have wet socks or always have popcorn stuck in your teeth?
Oh God, probably.
I think I could deal with the wet socks over the popcorn.
The popcorn, when it gets in there and you can't get it, I think it's the most
jarring thing in the world.
You can't speak negatively about popcorn though, as, as popcorn.
Oh, it's not negative.
It's just, I don't want to eat the kernel and that's what gets stuck.
So these both suck majorly.
Wet socks is a terrible feeling.
It is.
But when that thing's in the back of your tooth and you can't get it.
And for the life of you, that does suck.
I've had to go to the dentist just to get a kernel out.
How often do you go to the dentist?
Uh, I was, uh, not going for a very long time.
And then I have now gone more periodically of every four months.
I go, I've had a lot of work to have to be done after vaping.
Ooh.
And the truth is revealed.
Kevin is a recovering vapist.
I am vapor.
I don't know.
Even that's not good.
As it came out of my mouth, I thought that's probably not a person who used to
vape.
Yes.
There you go.
That sounds terrible.
Clip it.
An electronic cigarette using individual.
Yes, exactly.
And I was pretty addicted.
Just for the listeners at home and for those that are driving and listening to
this or listening as they walk.
Um, those are the only options.
Or cycle.
Um, to break it down, Kevin skipped a step.
He never smoked cigarettes.
He went straight to vaping because that's what cool kids do.
This was like a teenager does, but a man in their 20, 27 year old.
And probably when you, when you start, when you start puffing, puffing, wait,
when you start puffing the sweet juice, I know, I know when it was, uh, 2016.
Oh.
And then when'd you, when'd you get off the sauce?
2019.
I quit during the, our, that tour, the happiness begins tour.
Yeah.
And it was tough, but you weaned off using, um,
nicotine toothpicks, which then I had to then quit those as well.
You did that thing, which drove me nuts.
He would crumple those toothpicks up and leave them all over the place.
I was, and I would be embarrassed about all of this myself constantly.
Uh, and I made the change because I stopped, I didn't want to be disgusting
anymore and leaving that regardless.
I'm proud of you.
Yeah.
And my teeth got soft and I.
Is that a side effect?
Your teeth get soft.
Like there's some gum stuff.
Like I just was, I was just maybe had nothing to do with the vaping.
Big vape out there.
I don't know.
They're sponsored by, uh, I got a feeling they're not sponsoring this one.
Yeah.
But the reality is reality for me was I think I had more work to be done in that
timeframe than I probably needed.
So I go more periodically now.
I got the, I got my teeth whitened right before we left here.
I don't know.
Did you get, you got your teeth button?
We have the same dentist, by the way.
No, I'm off.
I found a new person.
Wow.
Scandalous.
Bummer.
He's awesome.
Anyway.
Um, he fixes all the like hockey players.
Controversial though.
He doesn't think we can talk about, you don't think he's great.
I, this is why you guys shouldn't share dentists and stuff because it's
complicated.
It's like a therapist.
I went to a new dentist.
Let me just put it this way.
My new destined dentist, which a new dentist would say this.
She said, who told you you don't have any cavities?
And I was like, I said, my brother's dentist.
I'm going to say this right now.
I think there is a game about dentists that you should get a second opinion
always, because I believe that there are cavities in there or not cavities in
there.
And depending, how do I know?
Oh, you have a cavity that looks like a cavity.
Are you sure?
This episode, this episode brought to you by big dentistry, seven cavities.
I had seven and I was like, yeah.
Oh yeah.
It was too.
That sounds like somebody needed to get that, uh, that, that drill money.
Maybe.
I don't know.
I feel better shots being fired today on the pod.
I'm flossing more.
Well, I love my dentist.
He's great.
He's fixed my mouth.
I'm happy for you both.
I'm just saying my dad, my dad, new dentist doesn't like your dentist.
That's all I'm saying.
I'm not saying, I'm not saying I don't like him.
I'm just saying my honestly, we talked about the dentist, Nick, you probably
need to go see a dentist, but bye bye.
That feels very accusatory.
I do see the dentist and I will tell you actually in my last visit, zero cavities.
Wow.
Zero cavities.
There was a big break.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know that.
There was a big break.
You were saying I need to go to this.
In my adult life with adult teeth, I've or even just, you know, whatever.
I've never had a cavity.
Judgment free zone said no family member ever.
Um, is there a relation at all to good teeth, healthy teeth and type one
diabetics?
Because let's pull up a, let's chat for that.
Um, I'm saying, I'm just saying, because like, you're not,
you're not grabbing like sugary stuff all the time, all the time.
Now there's a, I will say please,
a lot of people are misinformed on diabetics and they think they're like, Oh no,
you can't have this.
Cause that sugar has, has sugar in it.
Right.
That drives me crazy as your brother.
Um, so for those of you who are out there that just do your research,
cause that's not how it actually, it is.
But I am curious because it's something that there might be.
You don't go and grab like a sugary snack that often.
Oh, it's actually the opposite.
It's the opposite.
More likely, more likely.
So type one diabetics are more prone to cavities and other tooth issues.
Interesting.
Okay.
So the counterintuitive counter tooth, I guess I'm the anomaly.
That's just, are you really diabetic?
Um, yeah, no.
I mean, that's interesting.
I'd never thought about that.
But also, um, I feel like if you're, if you're looking for a cavity,
you're going to find one or seven.
Mine were preventative.
She said a lot of them were preventative, preventative.
They're preventative.
When my dentist, uh, said you don't have any cavities.
I was shocked because I was fully waiting to hear like, Oh yeah.
Not because I have like teeth that hurt or something,
but I just, it had been a minute.
Do you floss every day?
No, no chance.
I brush three times a day at least.
And I mouthwash regularly and you know, generally take,
I think good care of my teeth.
No, none of this matters.
We, but we did learn something,
which is that type one diabetics are more prone to dental issues,
which I didn't know you'd learn something every day.
And that's what this podcast is all about.
Learning.
So thanks for listening and taking the time to, to,
to listen to us talk about absolutely nothing important.
Don't floss your teeth.
Bye bye.
