In Ira’s words during an interview on May 2016 after being asked how they could balance their relationship with their busy lives, he said, “The honest answer to your question is that I think Anaheed and I could do this whole thing better and that we’re a terrible role model for anyone. We muddle our way through, for sure. And we’ve been together for 20 years but it’s hard on us. I feel like I know other people who manage it way, way better.”
