  • Know When to Hold 'Em. Know When to Fold Them
    On today's episode, Gena downloaded an app with a bell sound that she has found very helpful in trying to train TJ to be nicer to her. That's not the point of the episode, but it's worth mentioning at the top so you don't think you're hearing things. Our guest for this episode is Wesley Friedman, an old friend of Gena's, who has been through the dating wringer like the rest of us and has a lot to say about a lot of things...so we gave him a mic. Our topic was supposed to be how to know when to call it quits when dating multiple people, but you know, tangents. Whatever. Can't win 'em all. If you have a topic you want us to explore, or have any questions you want to ask – you can write to us at: [email protected] or TEXT us at (872) - 221 - 2083.

  • Peacock, Don't Cockblock- Valentine's Day Episode (sort of)

    On today's show, we talk to the very charming (not to mention easy on the eyes) Josh (@GQ50), who hosts the podcast, The Travel Guydes (@TheTravelGuydes) which focuses on making travel easy for every day people. This episode is slightly off the rails as we cover everything from Valentines Day, traveling with a significant other, how Gena hates Paris, men wearing leggings, and last but certainly not least, nipple equality. Also we decided after the taping of this episode, that Gena is not allowed to interview any other handsome men as she apparently can't keep it in her pants.

  • Cry Me a River

    In a world where baby Brittney Spears would cheat on a young JT, we know that nothing is sacred anymore. In today's episode we have Ariel Henderson on and we are talking about infidelity, relationship baggage, and why people stray. We also solve the mystery around what the hell microcheating is all about (Hint: it's pretty much anything you do that isn't physical cheating so get your shit together people!). So if you've ever cheated, or been cheated on, turn on JT's Cry Me A River in the background and settle in for this episode.

  • Finding Love In A "Swipe Left" Universe

    Everyone is out here looking for love, and that is no different from how it's always been. Meeting people online, something that was stigmatized just a decade ago, has become more common, as the path to dating has become streamlined with an array of apps (and hopefully love) at our fingertips. I'm not telling you something you don't already know. Dating in 2019 is as difficult as it's ever been but don't fret loyal listeners, because we are here to help you navigate the landmines and our guest is living proof that finding love on the apps can be done!

    If you have a topic you want us to explore, or have any questions you want to ask – you can write to us at: [email protected] or TEXT us at (872) - 221 - 2083.

  • I Don't Chase D, I Only Chase Money

    On today's episode, we chat with Rebecca Roark, who society would call a cougar, but we here at Menage-a-Pod like to say she's in an age-gap relationship (13 years to be exact!). We explore what it's like to date younger, talk about how younger men love performing oral sex(bless you, my child), and dealing with the expectations and concerns of family and society, in general. So, sit back, readjust your age parameters on Bumble, grab your glass of wine and give it a listen. Cheers!

  • "Be Careful With Those! There's a Death Card In There!" with Author Beth Jacobellis
    On today's episode, we have Beth Jacobellis on the show. She's a writer, mother, business woman, and a tarot card reader! She really is a jack of all trades. We talk about whether or not soulmates exist, astrological signs and how they work in dating, seeing dead people, turning TJ into a believer...and if that's not enough, we both get an eerily spot on tarot card reading. SPOILER ALERT: Someone is apparently getting married. ANOTHER SPOILER ALERT: It's not Gena, but that's just because the universe apparently hates her and wants her to be alone forever.

  • Matchmaker, Matchmaker Make Me A....GoFundMe Page?

    On today's episode, we have the amazingly charming and funny Jennie Dwin, who wasn't finding love on the apps, so she took matters into her own hands and ingeniously decided to start a GoFundMe page so she could pay for a pricey matchmaker. We talk about dating as an independent woman in your 30's, why men are confused on the definition of "pushy," an entire hidden folder of dick pics and getting the term "gena'd" trending.

  • Best & Worst of 2018 - Holiday Spectacular

    It's our farewell to 2018! Everyone and their mom has made a year end list and you know we had to get in on the fun. A fan club is starting and you might want to hide your grandmas if you don't want them to contribute to the our newest podcast creation. We talk ex's, dogs, and an entry at the top of TJ's list that would make Frank Sinantra proud.

  • When Life Gives You Lemons, You Paint That Shit Gold

    Happy Christmas Eve, ladies and gents! In the spirit of the holidays, we are releasing the raunchiest Menage-A-Pod episode yet! What? You don't think of Christmas and automatically think of making the best out of shitty situations, eating ass, blow jobs, bathroom mishaps when you have a one night stand? Weird, because apparently we do. Listen to this one when you're over the family time and need a break...but be warned, this episode should definitely be listened to with ear buds in if you're around the fam. Happy Holidays, everyone!

  • Sleepless in Chicago: Dating as a Single Parent
    Thanks for coming back, guys! On episode 4, we have Donna Walker (IG: @donnachicityfit), fitness competitor, Gena's trainer and all around good person. She talks about juggling her insanely busy schedule, while also tackling the dating scene head on as a single mom. Also discussed, TJ comes back from vacation well rested, missing Gena's face, and Gena's excited that we finally have a female guest and she's not outnumbered. Miles also makes a guest appearance while almost single handedly taking down the podcast by chewing on the mic cord. Don't worry, I haven't given him away. Yet.

About Menage-A-Pod

From the publisher's feed

What do unqualified advice givers do? Start a podcast. What do single people do? Give relationship advice. That's how this podcast was born. Menage-a-Pod is a hilarious new podcast about dating, sex, relationships and everything in between, hosted by Gena (IG@genagrish, former HuffPo Dating Columnist) and TJ (IG@chicagocaferacer, former serial dater & wannabe comedian). In it, we tackle topics like ass pics, divorce, breadcrumbing being the Pumpkin Spice Latte of dating and what it's like to date as a single parent all within the first few episodes. Let's be honest, dating sucks. We are here to let you know that you're not alone out there and help you laugh along the way (and through the tears). Hang in there. We've got you, boo.
