The Most Important Podcast Ever with BJD
Episode 76 | Joe & Abby | Before We Say “I Do”
A few days before my son Joe marries Abby, I wanted to capture a moment in their lives that will never come again. Not the wedding planning. Not the flowers, seating charts or schedules. Just the two of them — on the edge of becoming husband and wife. In this very special episode of The Most Important Podcast Ever , I sit down with Joe and Abby to talk about their nearly 10-year journey together: how they met, what they’ve learned about each other, what they admire most in one another, and the marriage and life they hope to build. We talk about communication, family, making each other a priority, their love of travel and adventure, and what they hope they’ll remember about one another when life gets difficult. And, as you might expect, Dad gets a little emotional. Joe and Abby will say “I do” on August 22, 2026. Years from now, I hope they can listen back to this conversation and remember exactly who they were, what they believed, and what they dreamed about in the days before they became husband and wife. This one is personal. This one is about family. And this one is about love. The Most Important Podcast Ever with BJD Ordinary people doing extraordinary things.
