I watched the entire episode of Jessica Alba and loved every minute of it. I subscribed immediately straight after watching your beautiful wife after watching Jessica. This is indeed the best channel that I've watched in a while. Many blessings for your channel to grow successfully.
I would love to see a show on how celebrity couples handle money
Exactly the same with me too. Watched the Jessica Alba episode and now this one and loved it. It's so real and authentic.
omg, me too! I'm coming from Jessica's episode
That says so much that he wanted his wife to be the first interview. Most spouses would probably never ask their spouse on their podcast at all! Great talk! New sub. Looking forward to more. 😊
I started watching the Jessica Alba interview then switched to this one, AMAZING!! You 2 are hilarious and I LOVE October and her story. Great first interview
Wow, amazing wife, and a great couple.
I agree on the acts of service! Any service like changing the light bulb, washing the dishes when I cook, offering to carry heavy things, are a huge turn on. It's like he's stepping up and saying I got you, without saying a word - very sexy.
His wife looks like Jessica Alba. You can tell she's a very strong character and a little hardened but a great person
She looks nothing like her.
She doesnt look that much like her.She is more beautiful
@@erikpuka2627 You need to get your eyes checked. Jessica Alba is more beautiful than her. It is just facts!
Damaged goods to me
@@erikpuka2627 no need to compare
Great, beautiful couple. Love, friendship, respect, and integrity seems to be the foundation of their marriage.
Wow, what a beautiful soul and incredible interview! She is so insightful, authentic and just radiating self worth, it's awe-inspiring to watch. She owns the good and the bad, and seems very gratuitous to others and herself. The perfect first guest.
Beautiful couple. Wifeys a dime 😍
“Can I talk?!” Lmao sooooo my husband telling me!
What a soft-hearted loving husband you are tony!
And you guys complement each other perfectly.
he is severly unaware of his value
My gosh this was an amazing podcast. I can honestly say that Tony made the right choice with her. She’s a strong, beautiful and independent women. I liked how when they first met she didn’t know who he was nor all impressed he played football. But great episode btw👌💯
I love how candid October is!
I did not know that was his wife. When I saw her last name, I thought she was his daughter. Excellent interview, It is the best of the 5 episodes that I have watched.
Such an amazing podcast.Really enjoyed October"s comments on communication in a relationship.Believe it is key to any relationship,not just marriage.My relationships with all people must have that key factor.So proud of the person October has become.I knew you when you where still in your 20's and hanging out with my Daughter and her friends.You have always been so down to earth.Speaking the Truth even then.You are a beautiful soul inside and out.So happy you have found,Love,Strength,Positivity,Family in your journey with yourself and Tony.
Okay, it’s shocking how intelligent, in touch with his sense of self and life, and great a communicator a former ball player TonyG is!
It’s pleasantly surprising!
Can’t believe this is a first episode!
Tony, you are a great interviewer. Glad to be in your first 2k subscribers.
Nice job, Tony. Wasn’t really sure of what to expect. I appreciate your wife’s candor and honesty. She was a great choice for your first guest and I wish you much success on this platform, going forward. Cheers,
Only 10 minutes into this podcast and I love it! Wow Tony Gonzalez! Great, great interview!! Such a natural.
What a great idea to have your wife as the first guess. Good job Tony congrats on new venture.
As soon as he asked where I do my thought processing, I said car to myself and when she did I felt like I was on the right team. I have a Janis Joplin song that will always make me sob and it is such a relief to get those feelings out. And as an aside, I grew up twenty years earlier with the same family dynamic and a very dysfunctional half brother who used me as the target for his own confusion. Tony, both your wife and Jessica Alba were highly interesting with insight and ideas that were fresh to me at 72 (with a social work degree that helped me unravel my own life).
I’m late to the party..But I so love the way Tony’s wife thinks!
Really?... 😂😂 I like the way she thinks 85 -95% of the time lol
Very interesting interview! October you’re so witty, wise, a talented singer and a beautiful person inside and out. “Come & get your love” is one of the coolest, fun songs ever! Best to you both always 🎉🌈🌟
Can relate to October's story when it comes to growing up in an unstable household and having to grow up fast. Parents separated when I was 5 years old (1987) and moved to different states. Lived with my mom growing up and had no father in household since 5. Had to be my own father when it came to the things that a father is suppose to teach his son. I had to learn from others experiences, society, Television, sports, entertainment, church, etc.... Was really observant as a kid because I had to be to learn things on my own that a father was suppose to teach his son. The only things I didn't teach myself growing up were like 7 things (how to talk, how to walk, how to read, how to write, things you learned in school from teachers, how to cook and how to drive a car). The talk that a parent is supposed to have with their child about the Birds and the Bee's (learned about that watching movies on TV when I was like 8, 9 years old). The talk about how to deal with adversity as a child, teen, young adult , had to learn about that through life's good and bad experiences I had in the 1980's & 1990's. Got picked on , bullied, made fun of at school and had no one to talk too about it. How to communicate and talk to the opposite sex in a romantic way, had to learn about that by observing people in public and watching movies. Dad wasn't around and Mom worked full-time 40+ hours a week and was too tired to spend time with me after she got off of work. Maybe 1 or 2 Saturday's a month she would allow , take me to do something I wanted to do. Other times I was an inconvenience and if it didn't involve her and my older brother. Most likely couldn't do it or go there alone. Mom didn't believe in showing emotional, mental, moral support growing up and didn't get close to my dad until I got in my 20's in the 2000's. Pushed and encouraged myself to Graduate high school (2000), pushed , encouraged and paid for my own college and Graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Communications in (2015). The only one to have had graduated College in my family between my Dad, Mom and older brother. Taught myself how to do my own Taxes when I was 19 by reading about it at the Library. When a parent is supposed to be their for their child when they get their first car, I took myself to the dealership and the car on my own. Some of things that I had to go through growing up as a child in the 1980's, 1990's would not wish that on my worst enemy. Looking back at it at the things I went through back then. Can't do anything about it now, just make sure my kids don't have to go through what I went through as a kid in the "80's, "90's". I don't have kids yet, still single and have no kids. At the same time making when I do meet someone , get married and have kids. I am making sure my future family when they do come. Have the best life they can have and don't have to experience the nightmares I saw a as kid.
Curiosity is the key to all life events and relationships....the complexities we have as humans makes the whole experience worth it...wake up each day like its your first and last day on this earth..
Tony when you talk about having children your wife is right about how you come across your wife has got it all right just my opinion. Thanks I’ve watched deon sanders and Michael strahan interviews good people opens my eyes you are all real good people!!
the part where he said I feel comfortable with you more than anybody else in the world, awwwwww
October is an inspiration for people who have gone with what she has. I know exactly how she felt when her mother passed away. I felt the same exact way when my late husband passed, he was an alcoholic and addict, but not on the hard stuff. I felt such a tremendous relief, yet there was no guilt. Of course when you lose a loved one, whether the relationship be good or bad, there is a change in your life. People say when someone dies, the love does not dies, probably for some, but the love for my husband did die; it took awhile, just as when you find love.
wife knows whats best. glad u listened to her about doing the podcast
I like her. She seems normal lol. Dont know any of these two, but watched jessica alba (grew up with her since her movie Honey i think, was a huuuuge fan so loving that i get to hear how her journey started and continues) and here i am. Love that these interviews unpack from the start to present 👌
This was AMAZINGGGG!!!! I'm a fan of October, she is sow friggin intelligent, says so many insightful things. I hope they will do another video together.
Wow this is a really great interview, as was the interview with Jessica Alba! Think I found my new fav podcast.
Ill never listen to “come and get your love” the same. What a story! 👏Great interview
This is better then marriage counseling. You 2 are great people.
Absolutely was inspired to comment-
1) you two are beautiful inside & out (from what we can tell..!)
2) thank you for reminding us that every part of this human experience is important, good or bad..& coming out ok on the other side is not too small of a thing to be proud of becuz it makes us who we are -
3) as a mom and a realist , I appreciate how October can be matter of fact/straightforward (ie: heartbreak) & it doesn’t detract from her being open & loving ...inspirational without the usual lectures -Loveeee
4) also as a stepmom who adores & raised my bonus kids...it’s nice to have something to point to & say bad experiences don’t have to be the only part that defines you. You are in charge.
5) sorry longer post than I planned
Keep these discussions up! Amazing content and good vibes :). P. S. I’m only half way through it..lol....October’s definition of commitment /brutal honesty, parenting, Co parenting .....meeeeee 👋
Edit: cute Chanels ;) , it’s so sweet to see Tony’s admiration like he’s learning so much for the first time lol....and reverse psych RE: social media and most things ...works like a CHARM!...no Tony giving too much logic turns their ears off. Yes on the school class to navigate sm ..mine are scholar-athletes and they actually do have to preach protocols and ethics due to college recruiting
Yessss affection & gifts ..acts of service haha all the things I never can put into words under an hour !
Great bonus questions....October is my spirit animal ..being kinder and more tactful in my honesty ...yessss. thanks guys& congrats
Saw the Jessica Alba episode...and loved it (so of course, I had to research what this channel had to offer)...What a beautiful way to “get to know” people...very real & open.
Fabulous advice!! Acts of service DO set us on fire :-) This weekend I was painting the garage and my man cleaned the house. Makes me feel we are a team
Love the advice on parenting and separating yourself from your children's accomplishments. I'm not a parent but I think many adults can relate to having experienced this with their parents. Also I am also a gifts and affection love language girl! lol :) Such a great listen
Tony, first off, congrats on your HOF induction. I watched your speech and you demonstrated your championship quality.
Great job on this interview with your lovely wife. It was a pleasure hearing her story and how you two met.
You are a natural at this medium so I encourage and challenge you to keep this going. God Bless my brother.
This is at the point I adore your gorgeous wife! Making me smile!! Thanks Tobie!! Tony I’m you’re a great interviewer.
The 5 Love Languages is a great book for relationships! ❤️ Great interview! Love that his first interview was his wife October.
I love this channel. I'm a 35 year old single woman from Vancouver Canada.
Canadian can our marriage be like theirs?! 🙈😂
I love inspirational stories like Her’s. New favorite channel.
I feel her, I grew up with a single mom. Hard working and two brothers. I saw her work her ass off for us. I grew up to be a strong minded work hard female, who finished school have always worked. My brothers had lots of issues and they were not strong!! I think at times we’re born to be who we are. I grew up with not so great role models as friends and some family. But I like the way I turned out. And I’m trying my hardest to be a present parent who is fully involved in my kids life’s.
Gawd this was amazing!!! Took me a whole day to watch this but was worth it❤️
WOW. October is truly inspirational. We need more women like her in this world.
What a first podcast will definitely be watching these when I can. Thanks for sharing you and your wife’s journey!
This was a great interview!!! 👍🏼I love how she shared how God and Faith contributed to what she is now, despite the struggles. God is always with us especially when we invite him into our lives. Faith is what keeps me and my husband strong, loving....etc. We have reconnected to the catholic faith by learning more and it’s amazing. 🙏🏼Also, I understand how tough it is to have a sibling or loved one that struggles, it’s very tough. 😞BTW! She’s so right about the love language! One of my love language is acts of service and yup she’s right!! 😂
Amazing content relatable, and easy to digest, your wife went through so much glad she turned out ok!!
October is inspiring! 🍂🍃
You seem like a great match. I much appreciated the authenticity of the podcast. Keep it up Tony, great interviewer ;)
I really enjoyed your video (every second of it). I loved the style, openness, value, and humor. October is a wonderful and strong person. At some point in the future, get interviewed by, and then interview: Patrick Bet David, of 'Valuetainment', and Ed Mylett. Don't forget to link your guest's social media contacts! P.S. I'm not convinced about the 'monkey see, monkey won't do'. approach with social media.
13:52 the irony that a father who wasnt there for their child as often as she'd wanted had a song called come and get your love, damnn =\
she is right on most of things
Oh my word! I am so in love with this couple. This interview was so good and laid back. You can tell they have a great relationship.
Both of you are cute and funny. I love the romantic stories.
What a beautiful couple!
Thank you, for sticking up for a modern, committed relationship, where supporting each other, growing together and raising kids can be challenging yet beautiful.
Thank you for being honest and saying, you are figuring it out as you go also!
idk your wife... and you .. as im not a very sporty person but i have watched this podcast from beginning till the end.. your wife is a rock star.. she's so beautiful.. kind and badass.. and generous... more power to the both of you.. new subscriber here :) thank you for sharing your story.. your wife is amazing.. omg if im a guy.. i would marry her too.
lol
This was great! Bring her back!
They’re too beautiful! Goals.
The love languages is so important for my wife. Also, i do take out the trash, wash the dishes and cook.
Beautiful smart woman who tells it how it is - you truly have a gem - loved this video of yours !
Beautiful people inside out! You both are amazing❤❤❤
You two have such great chemistry, you're a blessed couple 🙏
Tony I watched you when you played chiefs and in Atlanta. Your have got a awesome wife got a good heart . This is Thursday before LlV go chiefs!!
Also loved your wife sharing her story . God was definitely looking out for her . You are blessed to have found her .🙏🏽
Thank you for sharing your story October, and thank you for being a truth teller. Although not the same, I am the oldest daughter of a mother that has addiction issues and feel like I can relate to so much of what you said. I love this podcast and so glad you are doing this! Thank you for keeping it real! Great couple! From one of your Kansas City fans!
Tony I was a police officer in the area near Georgia Dome World Congress Center. Tobie sounds like my wife when it comes to children social media and phones. I sound like you. However, I do not care how long they stay on anything video related. As long as they keep up on everything they're responsible for grades, church, family events and aren't mistreating others.
Omg, she's so right. Such a turn on to see your see your hubby/partner help in the house. It's a sense of partnership and more.
I found your Podcast from watching Mike Tyson’s Hotboxin Podcast. The Jessica Alba one intrigued me, so I went searching for more. Found the one with your wife, and now I’m hooked. Your wife seems so awesome and really down to earth. I love her personality, and her way of thinking, she would definitely be a friend of mine. I was sad towards the end because this was such a great interview I wanted to hear more.....and BAM wifey drops the knowledge I have a Podcast. SOLD....she has a new subscriber ❤️ Beautiful family you guys have, God Bless you all.
I enjoyed this episode!! At first I thought she was Jessica Alba! Lmao she’s so dope funny and smart. She needs her own podcast👌💯
Not gonna lie T but your wife is hilarious & I love your reactions 😂
Tony I’m a huge fan , I luv wide open please keep it up. Your wife is such a vibrant & funny personality and the two of you together is so fun to watch. Best wishes to you & your family - Shay
Im going to start listening to your channel while working out
This is what I’ve been missing in my life . Great podcast ! I absolutely love show . 👍❤️
These two are really funny together.
Great interview! October seems like a really bright , smart person, but with a chip on her shoulder. Seems like she would be difficult to live with, always ready to disagree about something or anything. Tony seems more mellow. Admire him that he can live with that energy in the name of love.
Avoided watching this episode initially but this might have been the best one thus far. Make your wife a reoccurring guest. The backstories and the tools for maintaining relationships was good stuff. Beautiful couple. Blessings to you and your family!...only one knock...I ain’t washing no dishes :)
Glad I came across your channel. Love your voice, makes it more interesting. And your wife has a beautiful singing voice.
Subscribed! I know this will be one of my favorite channels and I'm 1 minute in. Good luck and congrats already :)
This is such a great conversation. And I love Tobie's approach to kids and social media, Its genius 😂😂😂, reverse psychology at its best
I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE your wife, VERRRRYYY SMART
I have NO Idea how I came across your channel! But I LOVED IT. She reminds me so much of myself In so many ways. Including about my dad struggling with drugs himself.
I loved this interview beautiful couple💙💙
I felt her when she said if she could memorize math or history like she knows 90’s R&B I’d be a genius 😩
Dude. You are the best INTERVIEWER ever!!!!!
This is awesome. Tony is super smart and super positive. They have a great perspective and a good sense of humor.
How... the grace of God! Thank you Jesus!!
Imperfectly Perfect
I relate to the story about your mom quite a bit. Thank you for sharing. ❤️ you guys are couple goals.
This women is a wonder!
Familiarity versus zing ... well said 👌🏽
im die hard enterprise and try to watch biz stuff only but this content and the podcast with Jessica has been thoroughly enjoyable... . smart lady...i laughed out loud about social media idea..
12:18 that redpill ignore he just did to her haha golden dude
I love this! Relevant, authentic, fantastic!
PS: She’s right about the dishes :)
Out of all the years I've watched you play, I'm not surprised on your next chapter Tony. Sub as of today. Keep them conversations flowing.... Can you get Colin cowherd next please???
Amazing story...
Amazing Interview! I can relate, as two one my cousins were in the adoption system. They've both fought to become amazing adults in this world. When she has time, I think October should provide Counseling services someday. Love ya'll! Go Seahawks! ;)
I didn't know he was married.....and to a woman that intelligent and beautiful!
54:10 @ tonys reaction 🤣😂😂
Just started to listen to your Podcast on Spotify and I absolutely loved the two first episodes. Keep up the good work and thank you guys for sharing all of this! Greetings from Germany!
October’s story is captivating!
