  • What’s An Appropriate Age Gap?

    Jared and Jordana are back with another episode, and this week’s conversations have everything to do with age, sex and a special message for Nick Viall. Jordana asks Jared what’s his age limit for dating and hookups. Next, our first emailer wants to know if she’s in the wrong for turning down dates once she’s not sexually interested. Could she create a romantic connection and focus on sex later? The Awkward Sexual Encounter inspired a new career for Jared. Then, a new divorcé writes in wondering whether he should reach out to former flings now that he’s ready to seriously date again. The episode ends with a round of Red Flag or Deal Breaker about the line between creepy and cute, bad pickup lines and love bombing.

  • Husband Or F*ck Off: What Happened Next?

    J&J kick this Sunday episode off with an update from a fan favorite SOS episode, so you’ll want to listen to “Husband or F*ck Off” from February 19th to get caught up! Our listener lets us know what happened with her dream job and her SO since we last spoke, and it was more than we could have imagined. Next, we get a deal reveal from a listener in Sweden. She hears from a past hookup annually, but he doesn’t make any moves. Does he want to sleep together again, or is this just a running joke with no satisfaction? Jared and Jordana analyze the text exchange and guide our listener on what to do next.

She has professed her love — and he hasn’t — but she’s still convinced that she sees it in his actions. So, how does she tell if he’ll come around or if the end is near?

  • Scandoval And The Audacity Of Men

    Jared and Jordana are back in the studio after weeks of travel and touring to talk about the word on everyone’s minds and TVs: Scandoval. Jordana gives Jared the highlights of the Vanderpump Rules finale and reunion, and they debate the toll of being cheated on in such a grand scale. Then, they jump into an email about a guy having a great time seeing a fellow grad student, but he’s about to move across the country for 5 months. Is it fair to bring titles into play, or should they put a pause on the relationship potential between them? The Awkward Sexual Encounter pulls the plug on the breakup sex that could’ve been. Then, our second emailer shares a bizarre request from a one-night stand. J&J finish with a game of Red Flag or Deal Breaker about a shitty date, manners when you meet the parents, and settling the debate on whether a S.O. should take an upgraded seat when flying as a couple.
