The 119th Congress will have 12 new Senators.

And if you heard election night victory speeches on C-SPAN, you might have learned something new about many of them.

 DLike the new Democratic Senator from New Jersey, the first Korean American in the Senate -- Andy Kim: "As I prepare to take on this job, a job that only 2,000 Americans in this history of this country has ever had the honor to do."

And the new Republican Senator from Montana, Tim Sheehy, who was on stage with his wife Carmen: "We were married via the mail. I’m a mail order husband. Because she was deployed in Afghanistan. And I was somewhere else. And we decided to get married. So, we notarized a couple of forms. …She stuck with me through all sorts of crazy stuff. Plane crashes, wars, two wars. Multiple deployments."

In this week's episode of C-SPAN's podcast "The Weekly," you'll hear those new Senators – and many others -- share more personal stories during their election night speeches.

• Which new Senator told his audience his brothers on stage used to beat him up?

• Which new Senator held his election night party at the same hotel where he lived as a kid?

• And which new Senator shares a biblical name with his wife?

• And while we're at it – who was the last Republican to win a Senate race in New Jersey? … and who was the last Democrat to win a Senate race in Utah?

Those answers – and a whole lot more – in "The Weekly."
