Anna Faris Is Unqualified

The Unqualified crew calls in reinforcement from Chris Pratt to help out with some thorny issues this week. First, they talk to a married woman who is struggling to break off an affair with her married colleague—even though she knows it is both wrong and reckless. They then give some unqualified advice to a caller who has been secretly dating her BFF’s brother against her friend’s wishes. Anna, Chris, Sim, and Johnny have lots of thoughts about whether and how she should break the news—tune in and find out what they have to say!

Before this week's episode, Big Bang Theory's Johnny Galecki was a podcast virgin. Anna and Sim make sure that his first recording experience is a memorable one, complete with Unqualified-style relationship hypotheticals and, of course, a Tinder date improv with Anna. In Part 1, Johnny also explains why he gets excited about criticism, what advice Roseanne gave him upon getting his role on Big Bang Theory, and the surprising reason he got into a fistfight with his brother on Christmas morning. Later, Anna and Johnny contemplate male vs. female sexual insecurity, and Johnny shares a hilarious story about dating a woman who did voodoo.

Anna and Sim are gearing up for football season and need some advice about how to get their significant others to enjoy their first fantasy football seasons. So who better to call than ESPN fantasy football guru Matthew Berry? Listen in as Anna and Matthew strategize about how she can help Chris win his celebrity league - and beat out Chris Evans and John Krasinski! Matthew and Sim also discuss why women who aren't normally football fans (like Matthew's wife and Sim's girlfriend) should give fantasy football a chance. But don't worry, it's not all football talk! Anna and Sim put Matthew through the ringer with a "Relationship DealBreaker or Not: Football Edition," and find out that football statistics aren't all he's good at analyzing.

Carrie finds herself in an awkward situation: after scrolling through her boyfriend’s phone, she discovered some incredibly inappropriate texts. Her call to the Unqualified gang leads to a surprisingly thoughtful discussion on what constitutes “cheating.” Then, Anna, Sim, and Eric talk to Jessica, who is freaked out because the rich guy she’s currently dating may be too good to be true. By the way, if at times you feel like you’re listening to a completely different Eric Andre, there is a reason for that. TWIDDLED MY BEAN! You’ll find out what that means as well!
