Hey, everyone, welcome to from The Kitchen Table.

I'm your host, Sean Duffy, along with my co-host for the podcast, but also my partner in life, Rachel Campos Duffy.

Oh, thank you, Sean. It's so great to be back at the kitchen table. And today we have two

very special guests joining us, Alexa Pena Vega, who starred as Carmen Cortez. And, you know,

you guys all love the movie Spy Kids. And her husband Carlos Pennevega, member of the band Big

Time Rush. And they have a new book out

called What If Love is the Point, Living for Jesus in a Self-Consumed World.

Sean, how much do you love that title?

Listen, I got to tell you, I love the title, and I love their story because there are a couple that says, listen, we believe in family. We believe in faith. And they're not ashamed to put it out in marriage. They're not afraid to put it out there, which I think is so important in today's culture. So I'm grateful that they're willing to join us. Alexa and Carlos, welcome to from the kitchen table. We appreciate you guys joining us. Thank you guys for having us. I think the best part of

this interview is that you're coming to us from your RV because Carlos is on tour and he basically

told his bandmates, I love you guys. I want to go on tour, but not without my family, which again,

is so much about the message of this book. So tell me about the tour and then I want to talk about your whole life.

I'm fascinated.

Well, so we are on a, we are, we've played nine shows out of 44.

So we are just getting started.

We're going across the US and in Mexico.

And it is, it's been so much fun. But yeah, I could not do three months without my family. So the conversation came up and my bandmates were like, well, that's on you. And Lex and I had a conversation. We said, look, like, it's going to, financially, it's going to cost us money to have our own bus for those three months, but is it worth it?

And we looked at each other.

We were like 100%. So we paid for our own bus. We have our whole family. We have a nanny help because it does get a little crazy. It's a little help. Yeah. But we're literally touring the entire summer. And the kids wake up in a different state. And it's so funny, every time we leave the bus, they go, are we going on tour?

And I'm like, well... and the kids wake up in a different state. And it's so funny, every time we leave the bus,

they go, are we going on tour? And I'm like, well, we are on tour. We are you know? But every time I go to a show, they're like, Daddy, have a good tour. I'm like, well, I'm going to go play a show, but we're not really in the whole idea. They're processing it. But no, no, it's been great.

So we got to tell you guys, when I met Rachel, we actually were on an RV.
