Oh, you know what? I came up with something. What did I say? And I said it in the arm. Can y'all hear me? I said something in the truck the other day, and I was like, I'm going to say that next. I'm TK. I forgot what I said. I forgot.

All right. Anyways, this is a very special episode.

TK from Around the Way. Okay. You feel me? I'm ready for it.

**Chris** (0:59)
No, I think we should do practices before we actually start.

**TK** (1:03)
I will write that down. I agree.

It's going amazing, babe.

**SPEAKER_3** (1:43)
It's not going to lie.

**TK** (1:43)
I probably don't even need to be here for this, but.

**Chris** (1:46)
TK, I forgot you were here.

**TK** (1:47)
I am just here to fulfill. I'm here so I don't get fined.

**SPEAKER_3** (1:52)

**Chris** (1:53)
How was your week, Tk?

**TK** (1:54)
No, who cares?

**Chris** (1:55)
I'm asking you, how was your week?

**TK** (1:56)
No, it doesn't matter.

**SPEAKER_3** (1:59)
Everybody else is okay? How you doing? We're great. We're great.

**TK** (2:02)
That's great. Love it. Freaking love to see it.

**Chris** (2:07)
She's so nervous.

**Maria** (2:10)
I'm so nervous.

**TK** (2:11)
I'm sorry. No, you're doing great. You're doing great.

**Chris** (2:14)
And you look amazing.

**SPEAKER_3** (2:15)
Oh, thank you.

**TK** (2:17)
I look fine. If you were wondering, I also look good.

**Chris** (2:19)
But Tk, you look good.

**TK** (2:21)
You know, I don't I super don't care.

**SPEAKER_3** (2:23)
I look good. It's fine.

**TK** (2:24)
Compliment yourself for anyone else can do it for you.

**Chris** (2:27)
All right.

**SPEAKER_3** (2:28)
Go on. We're listening. Chris, go ahead. Let's get it started.

**Chris** (2:32)
So this episode, we're just going to talk about a couple of things since I got my lady on here.

**SPEAKER_3** (2:37)
Boom.

**Chris** (2:38)
So what's something that you wanted to talk about first? I know you said you had a couple of things you wanted to bring up. You want to bring one of them up right now?

**SPEAKER_3** (2:45)
Yes.

**Maria** (2:45)
The question is, what have you learned from your past relationships and you can compare it to your true love right now?

**SPEAKER_6** (2:53)
Ooh.

**Chris** (2:55)
Mighty deep right there. Mighty deep. TK, you want to answer that first?

**TK** (2:59)
Oh, I thought since it was a couple's edition, you would go first.

**Chris** (3:05)
TK, I can't stand you right now.

**SPEAKER_3** (3:07)
No, I really wanted you to go first.

**SPEAKER_7** (3:09)
So I'm not even kidding.

**Chris** (3:11)
Well, put me on the spot right away.

**Maria** (3:13)
Okay.

**Chris** (3:13)
So for me, I learned a lot about communication, how truly important that is, and especially when we started, and especially when we had like a little bit of a little speed bump, came out of nowhere and everything, and we really were put into the test of our communication. So for me, like I said, communication played a huge part because my past relationships really lacked that, and I wanted it to be the very main thing for my present relationship and moving forward. What about you?

**Maria** (3:51)
I also like communication. If anything, in my past relationships, I was actually very selfish. I learned in this relationship not to be that way. I want to be the one who's always there for that person. I always said that if I met the right one, I would be that way. And honey, I mean, you're the one to say, how am I doing so far?
