  • SOS: Husband Or F*ck Off

    J&J are back with another SOS call from a U Up? listener on this week’s Sunday Special. Nicole joins Jared and Jordana to decide whether she should prioritize her new relationship or her career. They talk through the pros of taking the dream job and moving away vs staying in her current job and with her boyfriend of 6 months. Will she end up resenting him if she doesn’t take this opportunity? Should he know for sure if he wants to marry her by now? Plus, Jared proposes a few romcom endings.

  • How Much Can You Embellish On Your Dating App Profile?

    On this week’s episode, Jared and Jordana start out with a discussion about Jared’s Dad’s birthday party plans and how everyone goes a little crazy this time of year.

Should she go out with him again? The Awkward Sexual Encounter is a wild night in Vegas. Later, a listener asks how to deal with her and her boyfriend’s different views on drinking.

The first emailer asks if her boyfriend is a deadbeat or if she’s being too hard on him. Are lifestyle differences a deal breaker? The Awkward Sexual Encounter involves a repeat offense. Later, a listener asks if she has to justify her texting style to guys who interpret her slow responses as lack of interest. J&J finish the episode with a round of Faux Pas or Nah about expensive tabs, dog behavior, and fart etiquette.
