Today we thought it would be fun to go through some of your most embarrassing stories and we honestly feel a little bad laughing at some of these because they were so bad. We had second hand embarrassment for some of you while reading these haha This was a fun one and a big thanks to everyone who sent stories in through our Instagram page @ShawnAndAndrewPods !! Which story did you think is the most mortifying? Let us know in the comments below!
Love you guys!
Shawn & Andrew
What's up everybody welcome back to couple things with Sean and Andrew there's another fun one it's reacting to your most embarrassing stories
I love these
because if you guys have
Been with us for a while. We have shared all of our embarrassing stories
We probably should do another one and share some works like we're racking them up, you know
Yeah, we're just piling on the embarrassing stories, but you like these because you get to hear you gotta spread the love a little bit
Yeah
Let me just add one for you real quick, I don't even know if you know about this, but we are recently
working with the military and we were out in the middle of the mountains and
In order to go to the bathroom, you had to just like pop a squat
okay, and I went and popped a squat on the side of the mountain where I thought nobody would see and
As I'm like full pants down
Going doing my business
What comes around the mountain by the helicopter filled with all the guys
Yeah
From the helicopter
There's no post comments made no post comments, but I mean
It was obviously in an interaction, you know, that's funny. Yeah. Wow. Yeah, you did not tell me that. Yeah
Today
We have a comment from Becca Smith as a comment of the week
She said started listening to your guys podcast and appreciate your mindset faith and family approach
Listening to the interview with Hunter and Devin where you discuss the postpartum protocol you followed as a couple
Would you mind sharing that I'm 33 weeks pregnant with our first baby and would love guidance on preventative measures
what's fun is
we actually were able to send her a link with the things that we do as
Ridiculous and potentially unhelpful as they may be
I feel like it was helpful for us to at least have somewhere to start and say hey
this is a game plan of how we're gonna try to avoid this and
Work together and then you know, we evolved and grew the team. That's good
I love how if you guys aren't familiar with the protocol you should run them through it, but it is completely
Formulated and put together by you
Which I think just is really endearing and goes to show how
Amazing of a teammate you are. Yeah. Yeah, but again, it might not be helpful
Give me like a quick a quick summary of your protocol postpartum. I think it's like 12 different things that we try to do
Some of them are be outside as much as possible
Even if I didn't want to go outside and or would like
Set up the coziest chair in the sunlight and almost like
Come grab my hand and very gently like take me out there and people who have had kids
You know that first six weeks. It's like a weird haze. Yeah life that you're living in. So a little sunshine goes a long way
Only watch comedy movies. Yeah, you're gonna watch anything if anyone offers to help you take them up on that
So those are a couple things but meal trains are I used to before I went into kids
I was like, oh, I don't want a meal train, you know, I've
Pick your preferences or whatever it is. No
meal trains are
Absolutely
Incredible. I agree
Incredible. Okay, because it actually allows the community of people around you to be a community. It's nice
So that's a nice little heartwarming start to the episode. Let's get to the nitty-gritty. Let's get to the juice. Shall we?
Yeah, so we thought it would be fun to read some of your most embarrassing stories since we've shared so many of ours
You sent us these via Instagram if you don't follow us there head on over and give us a follow
We've put out way more content on Instagram than we do here on YouTube
Just because it's it's easier to frankly
But you can also follow our podcast Instagram if you're not already so you can participate in the next time
we do an episode like this, so
You already shared an embarrassing story do you want to share one you have any new ones I
I don't
But I'll start making notes. Okay, so I can share them later. We have 17 stories
You want to start with the first one sure age?
from page I
Was staying over at the in-laws house. They go out for the evening or so. We thought
Husband and I take advantage of alone time spicy spicy time commences
Mother-in-law walks right in
Full view of the spicy nakedness that is happening
We could have picked a better place to do it. But hey life happens. I helped her put groceries away ten minutes later
Wow, ten minutes it would have been two for us
Could you I
Could not imagine if my mother-in-law
Better be tough. I don't want any parents or kids. I don't want any direct family
No, I don't want the dog
Yeah, like the dog needs a locked out of the room. Yeah, I feel like really anyone else outside of parents or kids or
Yeah, I could cope with friends
We have a story there. Yeah
We we unfortunately had a friend yeah
Yep. Anyway, all right big show page actually has
to do
Her second is I was so sleep-deprived in the trenches with the newborn. I'm on a phone call leaving a message for a doctor's appointment
I end the call with thanks. Can we call back in Jesus name? Amen
That's great
Thanks for sharing those page you got Megan, okay
Megan says I was 30 years old and heading into my first
Colonoscopy due to symptoms I was having when the procedure was complete
My nurse just kept giggling while she was working on the discharge paperwork. I kept asking what was so funny
Next the doctor came in. He said that the procedure went great and kept smirking himself. So I said, well, it's so funny
He then proceeded to tell me that while I was getting my anesthesia
I proceeded to look at him spank my bare butt and ask him. Are you ready for this?
He laughed and laughed and said it will be a moment he remembers and shares with colleagues forever
Can only imagine what doctors hear and see as patients are going under
One thing Sean and I are always trying to do
Especially with everything we've got going on on a day-to-day basis is eat clean and fuel our bodies in a way that actually
Supports how we want to feel we're pretty health conscious people wouldn't you say babe?
I think for sure and that's why we're big fans of high protein zero sugar snacks like chomps
We love that they use real thoughtfully sourced ingredients like 100% grass-fed and finished beef
Antibiotic free turkey and no weird additives or sugars. It's just real protein and spices which is really rare to find
Protein is in to right now
Protein is in and if getting enough protein is important to you like it is for us
Each chomp sticks has over 10 grams of protein and zero grams of sugar
Yes, whether we're headed to the gym chasing kids or running between meetings
It's a kind of snack that keeps us going without compromising what we're putting in our bodies or leaving us feeling, you know sluggish
Yeah, our office is always stocked with every kind of chomp stick out there
But our team's favorite is currently the jalapeno beef
We keep them in the car gym bags even the diaper bag because let's be honest life doesn't slow down and we get angry
Angry I mean I get hangry
So if you're looking for a high quality protein snack that actually tastes good chomps is where it's at get 15% off plus free
Shipping on your next order of chomps meat sticks at chomps calm with code Sean again

Calm you got Janice Janice. I was home alone one time in high school and a man showed up at my house
I didn't see his truck or car anywhere
He just came around to the backyard and started playing with our pool water
We made eye contact from the window and he said hey, can you please let me in?
I need to talk to someone and you won't answer the door. I was so scared
I called the police the police came ran after him and then I realized he was actually just our pool guy
He had parked down the street
So he didn't block our driveway and he was asking for me to let him in because he rang the doorbell twice to talk to
Someone about the poor quality of our pool water in the bill. Oops. We never looked at each other the same way again
Yeah, I mean she kind of did the right thing though, right yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, but also yeah
Dang getting the police called after you. Yeah, I wonder how often that happens people who do work at other people's houses. Yeah
That's I feel like that's probably not uncommon. No, I mean the police were almost called on my dad for checking in on
Yeah
Anyway, all right. Next one's from Robin. I own a very small shop
I thought I was alone and farted looked up and there was a customer. Yep
I wanted to die just the two of us in there knowing what happened
Yeah
And you're like own your own little boutique shop, you know, it's probably got her personality all over it. She just
forever gonna be associated
Jasmine I was in high school and I went to say hi to who I thought was my friend
I literally walked up smacked her butt so hard only to find out that she was not my friend. I literally wanted to disappear
I've never been more embarrassed in my entire life. So you just say I never did that again. I've done that several times
Yeah, that's not a pleasant experience. Yeah, I think I've shared that experience not slapping a butt
but when we were first dating and I was trying to like learn all your friends names and like
Get used to the whole group. I came to have a bugging once and I was so
trying to like fit in and
A girl was walking towards me and I was like, oh, this is one of like Andrew's close friends girlfriends
Like I definitely recognize her and I went all-in super excited gave her a hug and it was like mid hug
I was like, oh my gosh, this is actually Andrew's ex-girlfriend
Yeah, yeah, I was kind of scarred by it, yeah
It's okay. I
Never had fortunately any
Disastrous breakup, so there's no bad blood
No, never. I never had a dramatic, right?
Don't I roll me?
All right
Let's see, Chloe says I work in an office setting for context
I went to the bathroom one morning and was sitting on the toilet and knew someone else was in there with me
I started peeing in the most unhinged
Monstrous fart left my body it echoed
Oh my gosh, I was so mortified that I slept I
Was so mortified that I slapped my hand around out over my mouth with my jaw on the floor
I started silent laughing in disbelief, but that unfortunately pushed more air from me and made the farts continue with each laugh
The other person in the bathroom with me left so fast that I'm not sure they even stopped to wash their hands
I texted my best friend at work to go to the hallway to make sure it was clear before I exited
I now tell this story to people in the office
But as if I was a person who heard the fart instead of released. Oh my god iconic, but my identity is still concealed
I will never run up to that
Some of these people are great story they are really fun
and
When I resigned from working at Chick-fil-a, I wrote a resignation letter
But put the wrong name for the owner. I had worked there for four summers and definitely knew who the owner was
I'm still so embarrassed to this day. Oh, man. I mean, that's not bad. I I really don't like this happened recently
with a
teammate of
Jets one of their parents. I called him the wrong name after like eight games, you know, you spend like eight weekends the other
That's not fun. No, I I take knowing people's names really sign
Oh, I feel like it's just the most basic form of respect and then you get it wrong
Frick I
Feel like it I disrespected that guy
Shea says I was wearing pantyhose and slick gaucho type pants that were I guess slightly too big
I was in line at the store waiting to check out and I got cold look down and my pants were around my ankles
I didn't understand how I how I didn't feel them fall
I have not been to that Academy Sports ever since worst part is I went to school with the cashier
So we knew each other Wow, that's rough. That's crazy. You just look down and you have no pants on what are gaucho pants?
there are those like
think
Think athletic top like leggings tops, but then in same fabric, but then they go like this
They're like super baggy. Okay interesting. You would have seen them around middle school
are they like
Easy to not notice if they're living on your leg
The gauchos that I owned were quite tight around the hips, but I'm not sure
interesting
Amanda when I was a freshman in high school
I was walking down the stairs and end up falling down six steps in front of a group of probably 50
Classmates walking down the stairs as well. No one stopped to help me
So I just sat there for about 10 minutes until one of my friends happened to see me and helped me
Hop to the nurse's office. I ended up breaking my ankle in two places
And had to wear a full leg cast too much. Wait, those who do you actually saw that's not embarrassing
Dang 10 minutes. Also at some point
I mean, no, I would say the threshold is about five seconds if someone's not getting up on their own. You're like
Probably something wrong. So the 50 classmates that witnessed it and just kept walking not nice Wow
Sherry says I went to visit my boyfriend's family for Thanksgiving. It was the first time I was meeting them
We arrived late at night after his parents had gone to bed and went to sleep in the guest room the next morning
We were having sex and suddenly his mother opened the door and walked right in without even knocking and that's how I met her
That's not how the mom wanted to start Thanksgiving, that's not how Sherry wanted to start
I'd like to know how that ended up
Is Sherry still?
still with him
That's crazy, I
mean in
The previous story, it's like, okay. Yeah, if you know someone is that it's not your first impression that situation
Well, that's your first impression. Yeah, and you're at their house
And it's Thanksgiving and it's the first time you're meeting
Okay, mama's real talk when's the last time you even thought about wearing a push-up bra for me it has been forever
After three kiddos comfort is key and honestly the idea of underwire and padding just sounded like a hard no
But then skims sent me their push-up bra and I was like, wait a second. This is actually so good
It is the only push-up bra. I have tried that doesn't feel stiff or overdone
It's soft super flattering and gives you that natural lift like before kids kind of left if you know what I mean
Not bulky not awkward just a really great fit that makes you feel confident again
It's nice to have a go-to push-up bra that actually feels good when I want a little extra something
I genuinely genuinely love this one shop the skims ultimate bra collection and more at skims calm
After you place your order be sure to let them know I sent you select
Podcasts in the survey and be sure to select our show in the drop-down menu that follows rough Sherry. Sorry, Lindsay
During a youth activity. We went horseback riding and I didn't know I was allergic to horses like deathly allergic
The instructors are giving a training and my eyes my eyes start swelling up and throat is getting tight and I'm wheezing at this point
We finally get to the horse ride and I'm looking
I'm looking like Will Smith and hitch I get on the horse and can't see anything
So I go to get off the horse and my bra gets hooked to the saddle the horse continues walking
The horse continues walking as I'm being drug along the side hanging by the middle of my bra
The instructor sees what's happening and stops the horse and tries to pull me off in doing so there goes my shirt
My dignity and pride as I flash the instructor and everyone in view
I end up leaving due to the embarrassment and spend the next hour using an inhaler and a histamine and Benadryl cream
To calm the hives and allergies Wow
It's a lot. That's a lot. But honestly at some point you're like, alright, I'm more concerned about the allergy than I am
The modesty, yeah, well, I mean but all of it together is just yeah
That'd be overwhelming. All right, Sheila says in high school. I was a freshman who made it to the varsity cheer team
I was a top of our pyramid as we all got into our spot
I sneezed so hard and I made the entire pyramid fall first day of school. It was like a movie
It would feel unfortunate but isn't
down to
by the way, I
Was the top of a pyramid recently and that is so sketchy up there really maybe I mean, I know I'm 220 pounds
So yeah more dangerous, but there's a couple times. I almost fell backwards like well, I don't fall backwards
so then I tried to fall forward and I was like, I also don't fall forward because it's not like
It's too much of a distance to fall that you would be able to do so gracefully. Yeah, so anyway
Jamie I was in a gym challenge you go every day and compete for a minute or
So at an assigned task and your team earns point
I just had my second of three babies. The task was jump roping after a sprint
You can probably guess what happened next I peed the floor
Not only that but the trainer was counting every time I jumped and watching my feet as the pee pooled Wow
It's 12 years later and I'm still mortified. I laughed it off and most women at the gym empathize the OMG
So embarrassing may I recommend a pelvic floor therapist thing, but she really kept going so respect
That's impressive respect
Danny says when I was 18, I was at party as I was at a party flirting with two girls
They said something funny and I smirked releasing a bit of air out of my nose their face changed completely
So I felt that something was awkward but didn't know what I went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror and saw a thin
String of snot hanging down from my nose to my mouth
But it was so thin that I didn't notice it and kept on speaking to the girls horrible
Yeah, I mean
You ever you're like been talking to someone and you just are so convinced. There's something on your nose
Yeah, you're like I got a booger. I got a booger
Yeah, that actually happens to me a lot. I know but you're very aware of it
I got these uneven nostrils, too. You know, what do I do with these your dad had them, too
I know I know it's such a thing. Is it genetic? It has to be guy has uneven nostrils
They're very uneven. But anyway, I feel like the the boogies just don't come out right? Yeah
Okay, when I Marissa when I was in sixth grade
I grabbed a pair of pants out of the dryer to wear to school when I arrived I
Stood in the hallway with a group of friends and my crush
I felt what I thought was a dryer sheet in my pant leg
I reached down to pull it out and it was a pair of my underwear
that had
The day of the week on them in big letters my face turned blood-red and I started sweating
I immediately ran and found the nearest trash can to throw them into I just knew my crush saw it and as life I
Just knew my crush saw it and life as I knew it would be over
I'll never forget that for as long as I live the middle school is I know
Embarrassment, it's just brutal you're so awkward and like you think everybody cares so much and
Yeah, it's fascinating how that
Hormones or is it the fact like you're really experiencing a lot of new things for the first time and inevitably somewhere gonna go wrong
I think a lot of both and people are most judgmental probably at that phase. Yeah, it stinks
I think a lot of it has to do with hormones like developmentally like you're not even close to an adult
but like you're not a little kid and a
Lot of hormones are happening. Yeah
All right. Last one. It's summertime

Melanie says I used to be my city's mascot for special events. I was a big Fox
So for one event, they had me dress up and play with kids at a physical activity day
I had no help getting dressed. So I started off already breaking a sweat. The head was super wobbly
So I tied it tight to make sure it wouldn't bother me
Nobody told me that I wouldn't be able to take breaks for the full hour
Things started off great
But quickly took a turn when they made me run around do jumping jacks and burpees
Well, the mayor was giving a speech I was holding a little girl's hand and everything went black I fainted
I fell face first and they called 9-1-1
The paramedics couldn't take off my head because I'd put on so tightly
When they finally did our local news station was there with a camera in my face. I retired my mascot career that day. Oh
That's brutal dang, that's crazy. Those are good. Those were good. We got some good giggles
The toilet bowl the butt smack echoing the butt
Which of those strikes you is the most embarrassing me? Yeah, I think the butt smack
most embarrassing cuz like
Farts in a bathroom though embarrassing. It's like that's kind of the place for it, right?
Yeah, if you're gonna do it, at least you're in the most appropriate place
Yeah, as like a woman laying in a vulnerable place like on a operation table
Operating table and like saying that drugged up to your surgeon would be pretty embarrassing funny
But very embarrassing. I think the first time meeting your potential mother-in-law. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah
That's tough. That's more like mortified. It's like tragic. That's just like the end of that story. Yeah

really fun series coming your way, but it's unlike anything we have ever done before and
I am really excited to finally share actually, let me say this to up the ante of mystique around this
I'm actually not that excited to do this series
Why yeah, because some of these things better off in the rear view, but really yeah. Yeah. Anyway, so
No, I'm at a place where I'm like on a high
Okay, good, yeah good for you
