  • 37, Single & Gay ft. Emma Willmann

    This week, J&J are joined by comedian, Emma Willmann! They start with talking about the stereotypes between straight and gay relationships, how she and Jared became friends, and what her new podcast, Ask Men Anything, is all about. Then, a listener wonders whether it’s why people keep asking, “How are you still single?” As a 30-something, gay man, is this meant to be a compliment or a red herring? Jared, Jordana, and Emma discuss.

  • Why Does My BF Keep Backing Out Of Plans?

    J&J are ready to solve dating again, but first, Jared feels garbage about a post-show interaction with fans in Atlanta and Jordana recalls humbling experiences from the early days of Betches and U Up? Live. The first email is a commitment conundrum that one listener is having with her boyfriend. Why does he keep agreeing to plans only to back out last minute? The Awkward Sexual Encounter blows in more ways than one. Then, the second email questions how logical it would be to continue pursuing a relationship with a man 7 years older and much further ahead in life. J&J end with a round of “Red Flag, Green Flag, or Gold Flag?” about living situations, date preferences, and celebrations.
