How We Made Your Mother

How Dare You Mess with Claudia | S1E12 "The Wedding"


Listen Later

Josh Radnor and Craig Thomas revisit “The Wedding,” Season 1, Episode 12 of How I Met Your Mother, focusing on how Ted’s belief in love and planning clashes with reality, nearly derailing someone else’s wedding. They explore themes of memory, self-sabotage, and how the show captures both heartbreak and hope. The conversation covers Ted’s romantic logic, the reveal that he didn’t actually check “plus one,” and how this episode sets up the next with the introduction of Victoria. They also highlight Sue Fetterman’s editing, the odd sudden closeness of Stuart and Claudia, and how weddings stir up emotions and expectations. The episode ends with a listener letter about watching HIMYM during labor and a thoughtful question about what parts of love should be easy and what kinds of difficulty are normal.
