How did, if at all, how did the pandemic affect shooting of the show?
Alexei: A lot of testing. A lot of testing.
Loren: We're regulars. They know us at the testing places.
Alexei: Scratching my big nose like there's no tomorrow. They think it's bigger, got to get deeper.
Loren: They have an extra long swab for Alex's nose.
Alexei: Yeah, so we've been testing just nonstop, and you lose somebody from production, all [of] a sudden there's different people and there's another different [person] and it just keeps ... Yeah, it's been weird.
Loren: Yeah. We're doing self-shooting too, so we feel like we're professional.
Alexei: Oh, yeah. Definitely lots of self-shooting too, because places have restrictions and don't allow people there. Yeah.
How long does it take to film a full season of a reality show like this?
Alexei: Well, for us we kind of developed with our –
Loren: Our life.
Alexei: Yeah, things, because –
Loren: I don't know. A few months?
Alexei: More than that. It started from Shai's birthday.
Loren: It would've been longer, but somebody wanted to get here earlier.
Alexei: What do you mean months? We started in April.
Loren: Okay.
Alexei: Okay. And now it's December. So it's not a few months.
Loren: It's January
Alexei: Now it's January.
Loren: Hashtag parent life right here.
Alexei: We went through December.
Loren: There is such [a] thing as dad brain too. There's mom brain and pregnancy brain.
Alexei: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I meant it took from April to December basically.
Loren: There is dad brain.
I definitely believe it. You guys remind me of my older sister and her husband so much, [and how] they're like with their two babies, I love it. How has the fan reception been for you guys as a couple, especially going into the new series, too?
Loren: Oh, people are really excited. I mean, I'm excited that they're excited because I didn't know what to expect, honestly.
Alexei: Yeah. I think a lot of people saw us at the beginning, in the original show, and then we kind of went behind the scenes and we did a lot of "Pillow Talk" and little things like –
Loren: That's when they started to like really like ...
Alexei: They like us and they don't see what we actually are. They only see the "Pillow Talk" show, where it's just we're sitting in bed and talking and interacting, but now they get to see our behind the scenes, and we're very thankful for all our followers and all the good comments, mostly good.
Loren: I feel like I'm giving a speech at an awards [ceremony], like I couldn't do it without them. We couldn't do it without them.
Alexei: For sure, because our followers like us, and we –
Loren: You're also hot, so ...
Alexei: Thank you.
Loren: You're welcome.
