On this week’s Ticked Off Tuesday, Jared kicks things off fresh off his birthday, unpacking the emotional crash that hits the second your “birthday week” excuses expire, and real life comes rushing back in. He spirals into a hilarious rant about people still posting happy birthdays on Facebook, questioning whether it’s kindness or pure notification-driven obligation. Listener complaints bring the chaos, including a family feud sparked by a shockingly low shrimp count in shrimp fried rice, the frustration of unreadable text messages on TV shows, and Walmart pickup parking spots being hijacked by rule-ignoring shoppers. Jared also weighs in on algorithm fatigue after one exhausted mom gets flooded with GLP-1 weight loss ads while breastfeeding and just trying to scroll in peace. It’s a cathartic episode full of petty grievances, modern annoyances, and the oddly comforting joy of complaining together!Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendGet GLP-1s for $133/month with a 3-month commitment @ http://Brellohealth.com/
On this Mailbag Monday, Jared tackles a friendship dilemma that feels way too real: what do you do when your almost-30 friend turns every hang into a wedding countdown for a fiancé who doesn’t exist yet? He breaks down timeline panic, Pinterest proposal boards, and why trying to change someone’s dating priorities might be missing the point entirely. Plus, a listener with a perfect husband struggles to survive group chats full of spouse complaints, and another host wonders how to handle a friend’s nightmare girlfriend before a big group outing. It’s an episode about annoying friends, social survival tactics, and knowing when honesty helps and when it just makes things worse!Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendGet GLP-1s for $133/month with a 3-month commitment @ http://Brellohealth.com/
Jared riffs through the wildest pop culture headlines this week, from Lisa Rinna finally shutting down decades-old rumors about husband Harry Hamlin to why everyone secretly clicked on photos of Taylor Swift going makeup-free in the studio. He reacts to Cardi B literally falling through a trap door mid-performance, questions what counts as an “incredibly vulgar” confession from Ethan Hawke, and breaks down celebrity PR nonsense that somehow becomes news. Plus, Jared dives into how the United States men's national ice hockey team celebrated Olympic gold with a massive Miami party, $150K in champagne, and a tribute to Johnny Gaudreau. It’s Page Six chaos, celebrity logic, and pure read-and-riff energy!Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy Friend Get 30% off all mattresses PLUS an extra $50 off with code JTRAIN at http://Leesa.com
Jared is joined by comedian Jackie Fabulous! They unpack Jackie's 2 ex-husbands, why she knew on her wedding night it wouldn’t last, and how being a self-proclaimed “lover girl” kept her posting glowing tributes to a man she later realized wasn’t making her life easier. Jackie shares what it’s like taping her Hulu special, You Can Leave at the Triad Theater, right after moving out, refusing to watch the edit, and the one joke about asking “Can I sh*t here?” that killed everywhere except Comics Unleashed. They debate expensive weddings vs. down payments, masturbation as a decision-making tool, why some words hit harder than others on stage, and the unexpected peace of sleeping alone. It’s honest, filthy, thoughtful, and very fabulous.You Can Leave is out now on Hulu!

On this Ticked Off Tuesday, Jared goes IN on modern everyday chaos: adults who treat a bakery menu like it’s the Cheesecake Factory (bring back the 30sec shot clock), group fitness rebels doing the exact opposite of every move, people who somehow still can’t open email attachments, and the nonstop-talking plane mom who blocks the aisle while packing her entire life at landing.

On today’s Mailbag Monday, Jared covers 3 modern dating dilemmas: how to shut down a mother in law calling you “mama” without starting family drama, whether seeing bikini models on a guy’s IG Explore page plus multiple dating apps is just normal dating or a real red flag, and what it means when someone asks about your day but never follows up. Is it a lack of emotional curiosity or just bad conversational skills?

It's Pop Culture Thursday! Jared dives straight into Tom Brady and Alex Earle, breaking down their “fun fling” and the PR machine behind it. Jared also unpacks Jennifer Aniston’s low-key birthday with boyfriend Jim Curtis and what might really be behind the headlines. Then it’s Jason Bateman getting sober over “tension” with Amanda Anka, plus the latest on Brandi Glanville’s shocking health reveal. We also hit Hilaria Baldwin’s accent controversy, Shia LaBeouf’s Bourbon Street arrest, and Heidi Klum’s headline-making Grammys dress.

Jared Freid welcomes comedian Shaun Murphy to Chit Chat Wednesday for a wide-ranging hang that covers stand-up life, dating, body image, nerd culture, and what happens when your comedy special includes a joke about your own skinny dick. Shaun talks about his new YouTube special Long Story Thin, growing up in Buffalo, balancing sports fandom with nerd energy, and navigating family, relationships, and confidence on stage. The two dig into watching other comedians, staying relatable when success hits, Ozempic, cookie rankings (Tate’s truthers unite), Star Wars vs Harry Potter, and why Andor might actually be the best show ever made. Plus, Jared puts Shaun through a “Nerd or Not a Nerd” game that somehow connects Zelda, Buffalo Bills trauma, and comedy authenticity.Check out Shaun's new special today! 👉https://youtu.be/sqgJfhnpBN8?si=FJwQTzGFB9FrhHXMJared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendDon’t sleep on @ultrapouches.

Jared’s in Dallas for Ticked Off Tuesday, hyping the Patreon (where the real complaints jump the line) and kicking things off with two everyday rants: gas stations that “label” broken pumps with a sad little piece of tape, and a new apartment with shower pressure so weak it turns bathing into a light misting. Then the listeners come in hot: one new homeowner gets hounded by the same window company so aggressively it goes from annoying to genuinely creepy, and she needs a go-to line for the dreaded “do you live alone?” question. Another duo tries to relive their Boston glory days with a casual early dinner… and discovers the city has apparently gone “velvet rope + reservation-only bar stools,” sending them on a scavenger hunt. We also get a property-line showdown (dogs, poop, and a kid sledding on someone else’s lawn), plus a grad-school friend feud where a former friend gets drunk and affectionate, then goes ice-cold sober. Plenty of petty, plenty of relatable, and just enough chaos to make you grateful you’re not the one dealing with the window guy.Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendGet 20% off your first 6 months of Quo business communications at http://quo.com/JTRAINSupport the show and get $10 off your 1 st month of Nutrafol.

Jared’s in Dallas for Mailbag Monday, pitching shows, his Walking Red Flag book, and his favorite pastime: giving brutally honest advice to strangers with zero eye contact. First up: a listener stacks two Hinge dates back-to-back, shows up late to date #2, and the text thread takes a turn that’s equal parts awkward and hilarious. Then things get real when a “perpetual girlfriend” realizes she wants marriage… and her boyfriend very much does not. Finally, we hop over to Portugal/Ireland for a long-distance romance that felt amazing for one weekend, but might be moving a little too fast, so what’s the move before she moves home? Expect travel chaos, dating math, and Jared’s signature “I’m not saying it’s bad, but…” energy.Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendGet 20% off your first 6 months of Quo business communications at http://Quo.com/JTRAIN Support the show and get $10 off your 1 st month of Nutrafol.

It’s Pop Culture Thursday, and Jared Freid is breaking down the biggest Page Six headlines, straight from Delray Beach. Jared reacts to Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show, plus surprise appearances from Ricky Martin, Lady Gaga, Cardi B, Pedro Pascal, Jessica Alba, Alex Earle, and David Grutman. He delves into Bethenny Frankel’s viral takes, Chris Brown and Jake Paul's stirring drama, and Tom Brady's possible hook-up with TikTok star Alex Earle. There’s also Travis Kelce repping Gigi Hadid’s fashion line, Taylor Swift’s inner circle, 50 Cent trolling Cardi B and Stefon Diggs, and Jared’s thoughts on Super Bowl culture, celebrity outrage, and why halftime shows aren’t as fun anymore. If you love pop culture, celeb gossip, and Jared’s unfiltered takes on everything from Madonna to Kim Kardashian, this episode is for you!
Jared welcomes legendary “expert in pessimism” Eddie Pepitone for a Chit Chat Wednesday that somehow turns bleak childhood memories into pure comedy gold. Eddie takes us from soot-covered Brooklyn delis to surviving the Edinburgh Fringe like a stand-up endurance athlete, and he’s got some strong feelings about being labeled “the shouty guy.” They get into the weird relationship comics have with their fans, why bad times can weirdly be “Pepitone season,” and what today’s stand-up boom is doing to the craft. Then things take an unexpected turn into gym videos, capitalism rants, and a very specific Florida breakfast order that says a lot about a person. Stick around for the menu game and the travel story that proves Eddie might actually chase historic storms on purpose.Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendSupport the show and get GLP-1s for $133/month with a 3-month commitment @ http://brellohealth.com/ Get $2.99 per meal on your first box & 10% off for 1 month with code jtrain299 at http://everyplate.com/podcast
First up, Jared’s fresh off a Fort Lauderdale to NYC to Boston travel day and gets sent into a spiral by his beloved snow boots: thick laces, constant untying, and the emotional journey from single-knot optimism to double-knot resignation.A listener follows with a very relatable airline rage: paying for a carry-on but still being forced to gate-check it, which sends Jared into a full “take boarding zones seriously” fantasy that you’ll want to hear in his exact tone. Other complaints hit the NYC snow-removal chaos and the eternal scam of street cleaning that mostly just… rearranges dirt. Finally, a listener vents about being completely turned off by dating app profiles that lead with negativity about the apps themselves.  Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendElevate your space & refresh your home @ http://Wayfair.com Support the show & get 10% off your Hero Bread order with code FEATHER at https://www.hero.co
Jared kicks off Mailbag Monday from Delray Beach with a classic rant: preorder his book Walking Red Flag (mostly to prove his dad wrong) and please don’t DM him excuses for missing shows. Then he dives into a birthday-party mystery when two very sentimental Chiefs commemorative Coca-Colas disappear from the garage fridge… and the prime suspect is a friend’s “used car salesman” husband with a history of cheating and sketchy behavior. Next, a woman wonders if it’s needy to ask why her guy ditched their brunch for Super Bowl plans.  Finally, a bride-to-be panics over wedding speeches because she wants one best friend to speak… but not the other. Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendElevate your space & refresh your home @ http://Wayfair.com Support the show & get 10% off your Hero Bread order with code FEATHER at https://www.hero.co
Jared is back for a pop culture Thursday! He reacts to a $2,000 hat heist at the St. Regis Aspen before breaking down Travis Scott name-dropping Kylie Jenner’s breast implants in a new song. He digs into Taylor Swift, hesitating to invite Blake Lively to her wedding amid Justin Baldoni drama, plus Steve Wynn buying his stepson Nick Kissam a $32 million mansion after a raunchy music video fallout. Jared also covers Danielle Bernstein and Cooper Weissman calling off their engagemen,t and photographer Ellen von Unwerth getting iced out of NYC party circles after working with Melania Trump.

It’s Chit Chat Wednesday, and Jared is joined by comedian Raanan Hershberg, whose new YouTube special Morbidly Jewish sparks a thoughtful, funny conversation about comedy, controversy, and why labels kill nuance. They dig into what it’s like doing standup in a time when even obvious jokes about bad people somehow become “debates.” From antisemitism discourse to why audiences sometimes seem offended by the mere act of joking, it’s a ranty, smart back-and-forth on why comedy still matters. Then things take a turn toward food, where the two bond over Katz’s Deli, gluttonous pastrami sandwiches, and the chaos of ordering as a team. Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendUse code jtrain50off to get 50% off your first box, plus Free Breakfast for 1 year at http://factormeals.com/jtrain50off
Jared is back for Ticked Off Tuesday, begging people to keep weed smoke out of restaurant entrances and to stop treating the front of the coffee line like storytime. Then he spirals over Threads being less “fun alternative” and more “comics loudly arguing in public for sport.” A listener points out that one little snowstorm turns grocery stores into pre Hunger Games chaos, which… fair. Another vents about a networking call getting flaky canceled, and a newlywed discovers name changes make TSA PreCheck a bureaucratic nightmare. But the funniest rage is a brand new mom who’s running on fumes while her husband randomly starts logging baby feedings in military time, sir, read the room!Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendGet 40% off your entire order at http://Lolablankets.com by using code JTRAIN at checkout.

Mailbag Monday is in full “tough love, but make it helpful” mode as Jared breaks down three modern dating headaches: the ex who keeps popping up with cryptic, ego-soaked poetry, the couple doing “ethical non-monogamy” that somehow feels like a sad group project, and the doctor who’s back a year later claiming the relationship ended because you “didn’t believe he was busy.” Jared’s main theme is clear: you don’t need a courtroom-level case to leave someone who makes you feel emotionally unsafe, and you definitely don’t owe your time to people who rewrite history to avoid accountability. He also goes on a mini-rant about how we digest texts like they’re meals (and why blocking is sometimes self-care). Equal parts funny, blunt, and weirdly calming, like having a friend grab your phone mid-spiral and go, “Nope. We’re not doing this today.Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendGet 40% off your entire order at http://Lolablankets.com by using code JTRAIN at checkout.

Pop Culture Thursday is back and Jared Freid is deep in Page Six chaos, riffing on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s fading industry buzz, paywalled celebrity news, and why having an audience isn’t the same as earning trust. He breaks down Joe Montana “laughing all the way to the bank,” Tom Brady’s endless shilling, and why certain headlines are catnip even when the articles disappear mid-read. Jared also dives into the messiest drama of the week: Taylor Swift’s private texts leaked amid Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni’s legal battle, unpacking friendship “vibe shifts,” exposed group chats, and why released texts feel naked no matter who you are. Plus, he side-eyes Heidi Klum’s new self-produced documentary, her much-younger “hot” husband Tom Kaulitz, and the rise of celebrity propaganda, before wrapping with Olympian Gus Kenworthy, Miley Cyrus, and Heated Rivalry parallels ahead of the Olympics!Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendGet your first 3 Months of GLP-1 treatments for $133 a month with code JTRAIN at https://www.brelloheath.com/ Support the show & get 10% off your Hero Bread order with code FEATHER at https://www.hero.co
Katie Nolan crashes Chit Chat Wednesday and she brings sports chaos: Pats/Bears misery bonding, the sacred “don’t celebrate until it’s confirmed” PTSD that only real fans understand, and Katie breaking down why the Super Bowl is basically a corporate convention with occasional football. Then Jared drops the ultimate peace treaty idea: make political candidates order Buffalo Wild Wings together before debating… which leads to an absurdly detailed, oddly unifying wing order negotiation (bone-in vs boneless diplomacy included). It’s fast, funny, and somehow wholesome, like yelling about football and fries with a friend who actually gets it!Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendGet your first 3 Months of GLP-1 treatments for $133 a month with code JTRAIN at https://www.brelloheath.com/ Support the show & get 10% off your Hero Bread order with code FEATHER at https://www.hero.co
Ticked Off Tuesday is firing on all cylinders as Jared unloads on weather-watchers who treat his tour schedule like a group chat emergency, complete with unsolicited storm anxiety. Listener complaints roll in hot, including getting ripped off on game tickets because “that’s just what it costs,” a luxury flight that turned into unpaid service supervision, and an assistant who can’t stop calling to clarify tasks that could already be done. Then Verizon enters the chat by offering to mail a password reset in the year 2026, somehow topping everything else. It’s petty, cathartic, and deeply validating for anyone who’s ever whispered “am I crazy?” at their phone. Come for the complaints, stay for the reminder that you’re not alone in losing your mind over modern nonsense.Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendSupport the show and get $10 off your 1 st month of Nutrafol.

It’s Mailbag Monday from Delray Beach, and Jared’s inbox is doing what it does best: exposing the chaos we all pretend isn’t happening. First up, a “situationship” that’s giving off mysterious relationship anxiety vibes, an age gap, daily drinks, and a whole lot of “we” language for something that isn’t actually a “we.” Then a freshly single 31-year-old wonders if her breakup for political differences was valid. Was her breakup valid? Finally, a NYC listener needs a birthday dinner strategy when her favorite one-on-one friend turns into a group-setting chaos grenade. Jared lays out the only real options: set boundaries, make it their choice, or keep the reservation (and your peace) on lockdown!Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendSupport the show and get $10 off your 1 st month of Nutrafol.

From Nicola Peltz Beckham and billionaire in-laws to Mark Anthony, Bethenny Frankel, and Lily Allen weighing in, Jared riffs on money, control, image, and modern family loyalty. The episode also touches on Kristin Cavallari’s dating regrets as a mom, celebs picking sides, and why airing family feuds on social media almost always backfires.

Jared links up with comedian Amy Miller for a Chit Chat Wednesday that starts with “are we friends?” and ends in full-blown road-trip family vibes. They swap comedy war stories, including Amy’s time coaching Golden Bachelor contestants through roast-joke math (rule of threes included). Amy introduces her 19-year-old cat, Meeps, who occasionally screams like she’s auditioning for a horror movie. Then Jared puts Amy through his favorite personality test: the Arby’s menu game. Between fish sandwiches on King’s Hawaiian rolls, Italian beef dip dreams, curly fries, and an alarming amount of sauces, they build the ultimate order—and somehow make fast food feel spiritual.Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendGet 20% off your first 6 months of Quo business communications at http://Quo.com/JTRAIN
Jared is in Delray Beach for Ticked Off Tuesday, and he’s got beef with a flight attendant who’s handing out headphones like she’s personally been wronged by every passenger since 2003. Then the complaints roll in: a gym making adults “ask” for towels like it’s elementary school, e-gift cards sent via text that vanish into the abyss, and a miserable receptionist counting someone else’s DoorDash orders. Plus, a truly cinematic locker room nightmare in Toronto where stinky hockey jerseys are basically invading a listener’s storage unit, and Jared has a very aggressive air freshener-based solution.Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendSupport the show & get 10% off your Hero Bread order with code FEATHER at https://www.hero.co

Jared is joined by comedian, friend, and certified SVU expert Liza Treyger for an unhinged Chit Chat Wednesday that covers everything from drinking on flights to the strange social hierarchy of Delta Comfort. The two bond over airline loyalty, missed upgrades, and the humiliation of milestone flyers getting celebrated nowhere near first class. Liza dishes on tour life, ticket selling honesty, and why she’s fully in her “drinking on planes” era, while Jared proudly plays hype man for her upcoming shows. Things take a sharp turn into pop culture obsession as Liza passionately breaks down why Heated Rivalry has completely taken over her brain, her libido, and possibly modern feminism. Along the way, they debate sex scenes, consent, power dynamics, and why straight men may need to take notes. The episode wraps with a surprisingly revealing game of “what would you order” at Applebee’s, proving once again that food choices say everything about a person.Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendExperience the world’s #1 blanket with Lola Blankets.

Jared kicks off Ticked Off Tuesday from Delray by inviting listeners to vent freely, then launches into his own “rich person problem” that still feels brutal: he finally plays at the legendary Torrey Pines golf course, only the rough is so tall the course basically has a “lose your ball, no penalty” rule.  Next, he’s mad that junk mail now cosplays as urgent, then listener complaints keep the petty parade going. A mother-in-law’s condo is gorgeous but has “museum couch” energy, Boston tenants are stuck doing snow and trash while the owner only leaves passive-aggressive notes, and a gym busybody tries to shame someone out of their second massage-chair session. He wraps with the universal rage of car rentals.Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendGet $2.99 per meal on your first box & free steak for a month with code JTRAINSTEAK at http://everyplate.com/podcast
Jared opens Mailbag Monday from Delray with gratitude, beach energy, and a reminder that anonymous advice hits harder than biased friends. The standout email comes from a listener who went on six “pretty good” dates and can’t stop thinking about bunny-rabbit sex, being asked to fetch latkes, and having to share a single hot dog at a hockey game. Jared’s verdict is clear and funny: if it’s still only “pretty good” after six dates, that’s already your answer. He reframes dating like investing, asking whether this relationship could realistically get 10 percent better and become a life you actually want. The lesson is not that she’s too picky, but that chemistry matters more than politeness and settling only builds resentment. Classic JTrain delivers a warm hug, a reality check, and permission to move on without guilt! Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendGet $2.99 per meal on your first box & free steak for a month with code JTRAINSTEAK at http://everyplate.com/podcast

Jared kicks off Chit Chat Wednesday in Delray with John Gabrus, and they immediately “break up” as friends because Jared moved to Florida without telling him. They bond over midlife “why didn’t I just live near a beach?” energy, then detour into comedy-world gripes, including how movies love stunt casting when there are a thousand actual funny comics available. Gabrus shares his peak midlife-crisis triumph: a solo Mexico trip for surfing and intensive Spanish classes to get off his phone and feel alive again. They then end by playing a Hillstone menu game that reveals Jared is Team Girl Lunch while Gabrus is Team Steakhouse Dad. They promise to finally hang out, which in podcast terms means it might happen sometime before the next Ice Age.Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendFind and cancel your unwanted subscriptions with Rocket Money at https://www.rocketmoney.com/JTRAIN Eat smart @ http://factormeals.com/jtrain50off & use code jtrain50off to get 50% off your first box, plus Free Breakfast for 1 year.
Jared opens Ticked Off Tuesday from Delray and immediately roasts himself for showing up to “the hottest restaurant in Delray” on Christmas Eve…only to realize his reservation was for January 1, 2026. He then spirals into beach-walk social awkwardness and floppy-hat groups refusing to go single file. The big vent is Delta, where he claims the airline hides his hard-earned upgrades in the app like a toxic partner gaslighting him about their “benefits.” Listener complaints bring the chaos: a hungover flyer forced to watch a seatmate bite and display nail clippings like tiny trophies, a university worker exhausted by parents doing adult kids’ basic tasks, and a mother-in-law who treats dinner parties like an HGTV intervention.

Jared kicks off the real first Monday of 2026 with Mailbag Monday energy, reminding listeners that resolutions start now and inviting everyone to put their brain on the shelf. The first email comes from a self-proclaimed “classy” guy spiraling over a friend’s engagement ring he finds tacky, and Jared’s advice is simple: if no one asked for feedback, keep it to yourself. Next, a listener admits she’s stuck in a two-year-long-distance situation with a man who has never wanted commitment, while dating a “nice and consistent” guy she feels less excited about, and Jared delivers tough love that she’s chasing vacation-mode potential, not a real relationship. Finally, a listener feels awkward chasing friends for Venmo pizza money. Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendSupport the show and get $10 off your 1 st month of Nutrafol with code FEATHER at https://www.nutrafol.com Support the show & get 10% off your Hero Bread order with code FEATHER at https://www.hero.co

Jared kicks off Chit Chat Wednesday with comedian Caitlin Peluffo, joking about her life as a road warrior and the reality of touring, from romanticizing small towns to surviving bleak winter clubs on comedy club coffee. Caitlin gives a Hallmark-level rundown of her parents’ over-the-top 55+ community Christmas setup, complete with gingerbread villages, reindeer plaques, and stockings with old-school oranges. She also shares why being single is her current glow-up: no emotional management, no long-distance stress, just peace, vibes, and group chats. They wrap with a goofy round of “Flabby or Fab,” shout out to Caitlin’s upcoming shows, and agree that a Zingerman’s sandwich in Ann Arbor is non-negotiable!Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy Friend
Ticked Off Tuesday kicks off with Jared roasting the podcasts that “took the week off,” declaring Best Of episodes basically a slap in the face when everyone needs comfort-content most. Then he vents about the Paul brothers making an absurd $92 million boxing a pro. His main chaos story is an Orlando show where late arrivals spent eight full minutes loudly ordering drinks  mid-set. Listener rants pile on: speakerphone calls on a 7am NYC train, a beloved best friend whose “maximalism” has become full trash ecosystem, and a budget massage place that tried to demand a $20 tip like it was an entry fee. He closes with a very millennial-sounding housing/internet nightmare that turns into a realization: we are forever the test generation, getting whiplash from “your building only has AT&T” to “lol it’s all in the air now.”Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendSupport the show & get 10% off your Hero Bread order with code FEATHER at https://www.hero.co Support the show and get $10 off your 1 st month of Nutrafol with code FEATHER at https://www.nutrafol.com
Mailbag Monday lands in the weird, snack-filled limbo between Christmas and New Year’s, and Jared proudly reminds you that while other podcasts are “resting,” Uncle J Train is still clocking in. He tackles a Hallmark-level dilemma about crushing on a cute, ring-free optometrist and how to shoot your shot without turning it into a LinkedIn crime scene. Then he breaks down the “fifth date shut down” question and why silence afterward can actually be a helpful answer for both people. The episode takes a surprisingly sweet turn with a one-year-later follow-up from a listener who finally said “I love you” after a divorce—and it worked—sending Jared into full sentimental mode.

On this Chit Chat Wednesday, Jared sits down with comedian Lukas Zelnick for a hilariously chaotic hang where they start as “not-not friends” and immediately bond over tech hiccups and NYC apartment humblebrags. From Soho loft lore and moving-in-with-a-girlfriend growing pains to the weird psychology of being “the rich kid who owns it,” Lukas breaks down how his background became part of his comedy voice. They get into crowd work vs. polished standup, why timing and the internet changed how comics build an audience, and the pressure of putting out a special before you’re ready. Then Jared caps it all off with a rapid-fire “How Rich Are You?” game that spirals into tuxes, oysters, college allowances, and one extremely rich older brother reveal. It’s comedian shop talk meets playful roasting, with plenty of NYC energy in between.Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy Friend Find and cancel your unwanted subscriptions with Rocket Money at https://www.rocketmoney.com/JTRAIN
Ticked Off Tuesday has Jared in full rant mode, opening with gratitude for listeners and a reminder that while other podcasts take the week off, he’s still showing up. He unloads on life’s daily betrayals, from shower doors that spray you with freezing water to laundry bottles that refuse to clearly say “detergent.” Holiday gripes follow, including blow up lawn decorations that now feel like jump scares and Christmas playlists that desperately need a separation of church hymns and pop bangers. Listener complaints pile on with gift list anxiety, impossible parking situations, parents who can’t hear through AirPods, and ads for New Year’s Eve parties happening nowhere near you. Jared closes by spiraling into the modern misery of geo targeted FOMO and pitching a very specific, very pricey single person New Year’s Eve dinner that honestly might work.Jared is on tour! 👉 jaredfreid.comCheck out his new book! 👉 Preorder Walking Red Flag: Dating Advice from Your Favorite Guy FriendSupport the show & get 10% off your Hero Bread order with code FEATHER at https://www.hero.co Download the DraftKings Casino app now & enter code FEATHER for 500 FREE spins @ https://www.draftkings.com/mobileapps
Mailbag Monday has Jared holding the line through the holidays and diving into three juicy listener dilemmas. He cheers a fifth date move that involves designing a full on comedy show invite, reminding daters there’s no “too much” when you’re simply acting on your feelings. Then he tackles a tougher one: a two and a half year relationship stalled by a Christmas shutdown, explaining why holidays are sneaky relationship litmus tests and why this deserves a real sit down conversation. Finally, he breaks down a rom com adjacent crush on a taken guy, separating intuition from delusion and explaining why flirting from a relationship is its own dangerous vibe.

He kicks things off with a Business Insider piece about billionaire Bill Ackman giving the world’s most awkward dating advice, and dives into why “May I meet you?” sounds more like something an alien would say in a human disguise. Jared then riffs on Zac Efron strategically showing up for his brother on Dancing with the Stars, Kim Kardashian’s finger-piercing controversy, and Zach Bryan’s dramatic “earth-shattering” mental health headline that turns out to be far more sincere than the title suggests. Finally, he breaks down Minka Kelly shutting down Jenna Bush Hager live on air and shares his own memories of feeling quietly judged on morning TV.

Jay explains his philosophy on crowd work, why some comics are basically filming infomercials instead of shows, and what it means to actually respect the people who work all day, then pay to watch you work. Then things get delightfully unhinged as they break down queer sexting etiquette, AI booty, real ass on God’s green earth, and why we might need to regulate tech just to protect Miami poolside content.

Then it’s on to listener complaints: a cursed U-Haul mirror box order that vanishes into the ether, a nightmare flight seated next to the world’s greasiest seatmate, and someone finally saying what we’re all thinking about pumpkin spice lattes (liquid fall-flavored disappointment). Along the way, Jared dishes on his upcoming tour stops in Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Royal Oak, Columbus, Orlando, San Diego for New Year’s, and Philly, and why you need a night of laughs away from your family this holiday season.

First, a 30-year-old ended it with a guy showing jealous tells, moody about male friends and asking for her body count.

Next, a maid of honor’s cash-stuffed wedding card vanished; he says stop treating brides like royalty. Finally, a 28-year-old moving to the Twin Cities wants friends and maybe romance.  Along the way, he shares DC theater gratitude, backstage YouTube plans, and a reminder that everyone judges what matters is how you tell your story and whether you’re confident in it.Support the show and get $10 off your 1 st month of Nutrafol.

Chit Chat Wednesday brings on Daniel Koh, a friend and policy pro running for Congress in MA-6, to cut through DC fog with plain talk about how the House works, why algorithms reward outrage, and how good government looks from the White House down to a town liquor license. He argues results beat rhetoric, explaining how barriers kick people off Medicaid, why neighbors and clergy helped Boston cut homicides, and how DC’s status games and two-minute TV hits make politicians worse at actual service. Jared pushes on slogans, civility, and the comedy-politics attention trap, while Daniel defends debating with facts instead of haymakers and says local responsiveness should follow you to Congress. They field a dating question about “moderates,” urging specifics over labels and partnership values that show up in real life.

Ticked Off Tuesday finds Jared raspy-voiced in Richmond after a blur of flights, posting up in a mall and relishing his wander-and-cookie ritual, then venting about middle seat life as a Delta Diamond and wishing for a literal sheriff badge to flash at clueless travelers. He rails against a candy shop that smelled like someone reheated lasagna instead of magic and whimsy, and a hotel check-in where two desk clerks gave him robot silence after his attempt at small talk when he’d finally removed his headphones to be human. Listener complaints include a coworker policing water bottles and microplastics like a morality cop, the nightmare of getting to LaGuardia on public transit, and a neighbor who tattles to the HOA instead of speaking directly about dogs running on a golf course. The kicker is a Chipotle decorated with fake construction tape that looked fully closed, sending a listener on an emotional roller coaster after a brutal day working with cancer patients.Support the show and get 10% off your Hero Bread order with code JTRAIN at https://www.hero.co  Support the show and get 30% off your first Cornbread Hemp order.

Jared hangs with comedian & impersonator Anna Roisman! They revisit You’ve Got Mail and the wild-west AOL days. Anna admits early “catfishing” was her first taste of impressions. Deep dive: Anna’s Hilaria Baldwin saga viral parody, mass reports, a brief détente for a joint video via Hilaria’s team, and the unforgettable line Anna heard in person, “I am a trained ballroom dancer…Dancing with the Stars would be unfair,” followed by the quick DWTS exit. They gush over Anna’s Kris Jenner (the laugh is the tell), talk meeting “Steve” from Sex and the City (sweet, thriving on Chicago procedurals), and how seeing childhood TV stars doing regular jobs messes with fans’ nostalgia.

Jared kicks off with meta-complaints about internet scolds who ruin harmless parent stories by commenting “they’ll be dead one day,” then pivots to three personal gripes: Penn State football being stuck in mediocrity under James Franklin (great recruiter, stagnant offense, scary to make a change), how brutal it is to admit you’re a comedian in public (the “tell us a joke/are you funny?” gauntlet), and why argument doesn’t equal evil if you can keep it playful like he does with his parents. Listener submissions follow: a mother-in-law’s overpowering 40-year signature perfume that lingers on everything (Jared’s take: you probably have to eat it, or pull a sitcom-style “third-party cougher” intervention), a plane neighbor’s bare toes on the armrest (firm “excuse me” is enough), anti–ChatGPT snobbery (it’s fear and performative purity; tools are fine in moderation), and a restaurant employee plopping down a foot away to watch phone videos out loud (personal-space crime, use headphones or move).

Jared checks in from Los Angeles for another Ticked Off Tuesday, ready to turn everyday annoyances into comedy gold. First up is the chaos of calling his parents, where a simple “hello” takes a full minute, and his mom somehow “merges” calls she can’t even answer properly. Then it’s on to breakfast at a very L.A. café, where Jared resists two heavenly slices of baguette and butter and declares that bread should be opt-in, not automatic sabotage. Listener complaints follow, including a massage that skipped the back entirely, Target mobile orders with no straws, kids splashing in the adults-only jacuzzi, and a neighbor who won’t stop “helping” with parallel parking. Whether it’s phones, food, or unsolicited advice, Jared finds the funny in frustration and makes you feel a little less alone in your own petty grievances!New Factor customers get 50% off your first box, plus free breakfast for 1 year.

Jared checks in from Los Angeles for Mailbag Monday, hiccup and all, and dives into two juicy advice emails. First up, a 33-year-old New Yorker ditched Pilates for a regular gym to meet men, and Jared gently argues for joy over geography: build community where you actually like being, then let that tribe expand your dating world. He still tosses a couple of easy openers for gym-floor small talk, but the real play is Pilates night out and friend-of-a-friend intros. Next, a 25-year-old worries her boyfriend fails “dad 101” because he won’t scoot over in bed and forgets the dog’s water bowl, and Jared reframes it as pre-engagement nerves and a negotiation problem, not a morality play. Use “I” statements, trade lists, and aim for partnership instead of courtroom wins.

This week on the JTrain Podcast, Jared is caffeinated, crammed into a tiny NYC hotel room, and ready to riff through Page Six headlines! From debating Instagram followers who mysteriously expect him to knock on their door, to declaring himself the “anti-death scroll” podcaster, he’s in rare form. He breaks down the shocker that Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Taylor Frankie Paul will be the next Bachelorette, calling it a Cinderella-with-spice money move.

They roast Week 1 overreactions, nerd out on lines versus “the public,” and circle a spicy Saints-Cardinals spread that has Jared dreaming of home-dog glory. Thunder Dan dishes season-long takes, including Bills buzz, Chiefs skepticism, and Ravens versus Steelers drama while explaining how he balances dad life with a fall full of football (hint: shared apps, not solo dinners). The boys also swap friend-group Sunday strategies, from bar crawls to a literal TV party boat, and play a delightful “Who You Got?” for game-day personalities you love to loathe.

Jared kicks off from Delray Beach with a special Ticked Off Tuesday that doubles as a free sample of his Coffee with JTrain episodes, complete with a wild, full-circle saga about buying a car. The episode blends personal storytelling with the usual mix of listener gripes and sponsor breaks. This week’s complaints cover engagement gifts that trigger endless thank-you notes and guest-list pressure, a 45-minute Staples print fiasco, the pain of saving a solo seat with no one to guard your stuff, and wedding DJs blasting breakup bops like “Mr. Brightside.” It’s classic JTrain, agreeing with your complaint, making you feel seen, and laughing through the chaos!Support the show and get 25% off your first Tommy John order at https://www.tommyjohn.com/FEATHERSupport the show & get 50% off your first Factor box, plus free breakfast for a year with the code JTRAIN50OFF at https://www.factormeals.com/JTRAIN50OFF
Jared is coming to you live from Delray Beach for Mailbag Monday! He sets the vibe with tour shoutouts for Winnipeg and Kansas City, plus a push to catch the weekly stand-up on YouTube. He teases a chaotic car buying saga for later this week, then jumps into emails with coffee in hand and peak football season feelings. First up, a listener drowning in her in-laws' family group chat wants a graceful exit without starting a war. Then a 35-year-old asks why Hinge matches are suddenly leading with friends with benefits and whether it is a trend or her profile. Finally, a marriage on shaky trust after an emotional affair spirals over a mysterious laptop photo and what real repair should look like.Support the show and get 25% off your first Tommy John order at https://www.tommyjohn.com/FEATHERSupport the show & get 50% off your first Factor box, plus free breakfast for a year with the code JTRAIN50OFF at https://www.factormeals.com/JTRAIN50OFF

Jake makes the case for “friend-luck”: invite your favorites and require each to bring someone they love, creating a matchmaking community.

Ticked Off Tuesday rolls in from Providence with listener gripes and a few of Jared’s own! We get sentimental over Lee Corso’s final mascot pick and call out the “even as a Badger fan…” homerism that followed. There’s a Marriott check-in limbo, complete with seven-minute lobby purgatory and vague updates.

This week’s Pop Culture Thursday is all about, who else? Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce! Jared, aka the JTrain, is sifting through every Page Six headline and serving up his signature mix of eye rolls, laughs, and oddly specific analogies (salsa discourse included). From private-but-not-really-private wedding rumors to engagement ring drama that’s allegedly “designed” by Travis, Jared calls out the hype while still giving the Swifties their due. Along the way, he plugs his Patreon, shames you into buying comedy tickets early, and reminds everyone that pop culture is a business, baby. Light, funny, and just a little noodge-y, this is your weekly dose of riffs, rants, and reality checks.
This week on The JTrain Podcast, Jared is joined by comedian Dan Soder for a classic Chit Chat Wednesday. They kick things off with laughs about body types, ranch dressing, and upcoming shows before diving into a wide-ranging conversation. Dan shares his fitness routine, stories from life on the road, and why he prefers hanging out with eager new comics over bitter old ones in the green room. The two swap food favorites, reminisce about their college days, and debate tipping etiquette for green room staff. They also get into comedy shop talk, from opener etiquette and overlapping material to how comedians should treat their audiences. To top it off, they imagine a hilarious comedy Supreme Court made up of the most influential comics. It is a fun, unfiltered hang between two sharp comics you will not want to miss!
Jared is back with another Ticked Off Tuesday, diving headfirst into life’s little annoyances like why bacon still isn’t packaged with a zip-top, gyms doubling as water bottle obstacle courses, and grocery store shoppers who treat the aisles like a family reunion. Along the way, he shares his undying love for Trader Joe’s peanut butter pretzel nuggets, vents about YouTube frustrations, and previews his upcoming tour stops. Listeners write in with their own hilarious complaints, from restaurants overloading delivery bags with cutlery to streaming services that make binge-watching way harder than it should be.

He delves into classic listener emails, covering the tricky world of post-breakup dating and even how to make new parent friends without it feeling like a suburban swingers' invitation.

In this week’s Pop Culture Thursday, Jared dives right into a mix of pop culture headlines, from Julia Fox’s confusing sexuality “clarification” to the oddly awkward obituary of TikTok star John Crawley, better known as “King Beard X.” He jokes about how embarrassing it would be if his own comedy nicknames showed up in his obituary. Things get wilder with a Hamptons story of a woman in her 50s allegedly biting a six-year-old during a t-shirt gun brawl—something Jared insists should mean jail time. He pokes fun at a headline calling Austin Butler “fearless” for shooing away a bee near Zoë Kravitz, and rolls his eyes at Jay Cutler airing divorce grievances online. To wrap it up, Jared defends the Coldplay kiss cam, insisting we can’t let cheaters ruin a fun tradition. It’s goofy, ranty, and oddly heartfelt all at once.Support the show and get up to 10 free HelloFresh meals at https://www.hellofresh.com/jtrain10fm

It’s another Ticked Off Tuesday, and Jared is back to duet your complaints with gusto! First up, his mom somehow turned “I went to bed early” into a dire medical emergency; nothing like parental concern to turn rest into a diagnosis. We’ve got a listener fed up with t-shirt cannon “performers” who think they’re auditioning for So You Think You Can Dance instead of, you know, actually launching shirts. Another transplant from NYC to Atlanta is shocked to find the real summer villain isn’t the humidity, it’s indoor workplaces kept at a balmy 81 degrees. Plus, someone’s blocking a one-way street with hazards on despite a sea of open parking spots, and Jared’s not having it.

It's Mailbag Monday, and Jared is diving into your dating dilemmas with the precision of a gossip surgeon. First up, a listener had a promising Hinge date lined up, until she sent the “we should probably cancel” text upon realizing he’s a recent ex of her friend. Did the ex wave her off, or is this just modern dating’s efficiency mode kicking in? Then, a post-volleyball romance that’s stuck in the Thursday-night-after-the-game loop, with zero movement toward a real plan. Jared breaks down why “make a plan and I’m in” should be your new mantra, and why vague dating purgatory is the enemy of progress. Plus, a few tangents, some travel gripes, and the occasional unsolicited Woody Allen quote!Support the show, and get 10% off your Hero Bread order.

It’s Pop Culture Thursday, and Jared is dishing a headline buffet straight from Page Six. He dives into the Taylor Swift multiverse — from her “announcement of an announcement” album drop to Marvel-movie-level Easter eggs that keep superfans in overdrive. Jared riffs on Swift’s internet tribalism, the romantic economics of dating her (hi, Travis Kelce), and even a snake-related bathroom demolition courtesy of Zoe Kravitz. Along the way, he skewers wild fan theories, Martha Stewart’s Real Housewives shade, and Leonardo DiCaprio’s so-called “mortified” pat-down. Add in Dua Lipa birthday buzz, a Vanity Fair shake-up, and one eyebrow-raising Kelly Clarkson ex subplot, and you’ve got an episode that’s equal parts gossip, comedy, and “did he just say that?”
On this Chit Chat Wednesday, Jared sits down with comedian Peter Revello for a hilarious and insightful conversation about growing up in Staten Island. Peter shares stories about the construction worker culture he was surrounded by, and how the Verrazzano Bridge changed everything for the borough. They talk about accents, stereotypes, and how Staten Island shaped their relationships, including how Peter met his wife at a Tottenville pizzeria! The conversation touches on marriage, moving to Florida, and the everyday realities of comic life. Plus, they wrap with a game of “Scummy or Yummy,” judging everyday behaviors and whether they’re lowbrow or lovable!Support the show and get 25% off your first Tommy John order at https://www.tommyjohn.com/FEATHER

A Barry’s Bootcamp fan is left frustrated after a canceled class with no real apology.

One listener is fuming over a coworker who cuts into every dessert to sample them before anyone else gets a bite. Another is tired of golf coverage that feels more like a Rory McIlroy documentary than a major tournament.

It’s Chit Chat Wednesday, and Jared is coming to you from Bloomington, Indiana, with comedian and friend Brendan Sagalow. They dive right in by roasting each other’s podcast names (is “SAG Daddy Da Pod” genius or insane?)😂 and debating the day Brendan will finally quit podcasting, Lennon-style, from a Disney resort. The two riff on the bizarre power of internet trolls, the thin line between influencer fame and hate-watching, and why Brendan’s special Thin Lips opens with a rap video that’s both hilarious and mildly threatening. They also get into the weird world of TikTok “positivity” creators, the saga of the cheating CEO on the kiss cam, and what it would take to redeem your public image after a viral scandal (hint: coach youth hockey and grow a beard). Of course, there’s a game of “Would You Rather?” involving ill-fitting underwear, bad dinners, and farting on planes.

Mailbag Monday from London! Jared Freid is coming to you from across the pond to dive into two spicy listener dilemmas that hit close to home. First up: a woman questions the financial and emotional labor in her relationship after covering her boyfriend’s expenses for years. Should she finally ask him to contribute, or is it too late to fix the imbalance?

It’s a hilarious and heartfelt Chit Chat Wednesday as Jared Freid sits down with comedian Eric Neumann, fresh off the release of his brand-new YouTube special, Almost Engaged. Together, they dive deep into the emotional rollercoaster of love, heartbreak, and the comedy that comes from it all.Eric opens up about his not-quite engagement and the real-life relationship that inspired the special, including his brother’s chaotic divorce and the now-infamous couch painting that came with it. The two comics explore the tricky process of turning personal pain into punchlines, the healing power of yoga, and why post-breakup dating is its own kind of trauma response. Jared shares his experiences with joke-building after a breakup, the moments that still make him cringe (including the coffee bit that got him on The Tonight Show), and how to know when it’s time to let go of material and people.From the origin story of “Napkin Neumann” at the Comedy Cellar to a deep discussion on vulnerability, timing, and growing past heartbreak, this episode is packed with honesty, laughter, and insight into how comedians turn real-life chaos into cathartic comedy.Support the podcast by supporting our sponsors!Get 10% off your Hero Bread order with the code JTRAIN at https://www.hero.co🙋🏻‍♂️ Jared FreidInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/jaredfreidTwitter - https://twitter.com/jtrain56TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@wizardofhaWebsite - https://jaredfreid.com/🎙🚊Follow JTrain PodcastPatreon - https://www.patreon.com/jaredfreidInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/jtrainpodcast🙋‍♀️ Our Producer Venetia AKA VWebsite - https://www.venetiageras.com/Twitter - https://twitter.com/venetiaagerasInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/venetiaageras/Hop on the "JTrain" with comedian Jared Freid and his crew of pals, including YOU!

This week’s Ticked Off Tuesday is full of high-stakes complaints from a breakfast wrap betrayal to a lighting company leaving someone lit up for all the wrong reasons.

It’s Ticked Off Tuesday, and Jared is fired up! First, he tackles his frustration: PIZZA! Jared complains that the specialty pizzas at Jimmy V’s in Raleigh are overly complicated, with too many aggressive or niche ingredients that make them hard to order solo. He wishes restaurants offered more balanced, gently creative options or solo-sized portions so diners eating alone could try something new without committing to a full pie.We then move on to emails: Jared reads one from a listener whose frustrating baggage claim experience proves that “priority” tags on checked luggage mean nothing. Plus, don’t even get him started on the chaos of people crowding the carousel! Then, a listener shares their luxury lounge-level gripe about the lack of trash cans at coffee shops, leaving her with a purse full of straw wrapper ghosts. Finally, a homeowner vents about a disastrous basement construction job that left her entire house coated in dust thanks to careless contractors and zero protective prep. Jared breaks it all down with his signature blend of logic, laughs, and low-level rage. If you’ve ever been personally victimized by air travel, iced coffee logistics, or renovation nightmares, this episode will speak to your soul. Tune in for therapeutic venting, relatable rants, and Jared’s brutally honest takes. Support the podcast by supporting our sponsors!Nutrafol Get $10 off your first month’s subscription of Nutrafol with the promo code FEATHER at https://www.nutrafol.com/menHero Bread Support the show and get 10% off your Hero Bread order.

He kicks things off with a personal gripe about asking hotel front desks for food recommendations and getting “cheap and a lot” instead of “good and worth it.” Why is Subway the go-to sandwich rec in every town?!Then, Jared dives into listener complaints, starting with an epic rant about narcissistic dog owners who weaponize their pets to deflect responsibility. Are you a dog lover or just someone who refuses to say “my bad”? Jared breaks down the psychology of leash laziness and the “you must not be a dog person” defense.We also hear from a listener caught in an Apple vs. Chase customer service vortex over a mystery $79.99 charge. Who’s got the money? Who's telling the truth? No one knows — and now her husband's fitness app is broken forever.Plus, announcements about upcoming live shows, a stand-up clip from Portland, and how you can catch Jared on the road in Nashville all week long!!check out:Stream Jared’s crowd work on YouTube: YouTube.com/JaredFriedGet to the top of the complaint list by joining the Patreon: patreon.com/jaredfriedSupport the podcast by supporting our sponsors!Caldera Lab Support the show and get 20% off your first Caldera Lab order.

Jared is in Rochester, NY, taping ahead of time before heading to Nashville to work out new material at Zanies' new "Lab" room, and he's bringing the energy. This week’s Mailbag Monday dives into a wedding plus-one predicament that turns into a full-blown dissection of lazy logistics, relationship signals, and the male brain’s cheapskate tendencies. Jared breaks down why assuming a plus-one is never the move, how shoehorning a parent-meet into a wedding weekend backfires, and why your girlfriend might be annoyed but not complaining.Then, he reacts to a dating dilemma that puts a new twist on an old classic: should you date someone your friends don’t like? He breaks down a listener's situation where the boyfriend gets along great with her family but not her friends. Plus, Jared reads a powerful message from a listener who recently got out of a two-year relationship and reflects on a recurring pattern of verbal abuse, specifically being called a "bitch" during every argument. Jared gives his honest take on when name-calling crosses the line and what it says about the health of the relationship. As always, he’s here to keep it real and help you navigate the gray areas of modern dating.Support the podcast by supporting our sponsors!Caldera Lab Support the show and get 20% off your first Caldera Lab order.

It’s Ticked Off Tuesday, and the complaints are rolling in! This week, Jared reacts to a CEO who has way too much to say about office bathroom habits—seriously, why is she so obsessed with #2 etiquette? Then, a longtime patient gets stonewalled by a doctor’s office that refuses to schedule them in the morning, despite years of loyalty. And finally, a job candidate jumps through every possible hiring hoop—six rounds of interviews, a case study, three glowing references—only for the recruiter to demand more proof they’re worthy of an average finance role (oh, and a two-week background check to top it off). Jared is here to commiserate, rant, and break it all down with his signature mix of humor and outrage.Support the podcast by supporting our sponsors!Support the show &amp; get started with EveryPlate.

Jared is back with another Mailbag Monday, and this week, we’ve got two tough dilemmas that need his signature blend of honesty and humor!!First up, a listener is haunted by a friend breakup that feels more like a slow, painful ghosting. After years of deep connection, their friend pulled away when they were struggling with depression, eventually cutting ties while still keeping the door cracked just enough to leave them wondering what went wrong. How do you move on when a once-close friend makes you feel like an afterthought? Jared breaks it down.Then, we’ve got a relationship curveball: a listener just found out that her long-term boyfriend, who’s been complaining about money and the cost of an engagement ring, had been secretly spending on OnlyFans while they were together. He says she’s overreacting—but is she? Jared weighs in on trust, finances, and what this reveal really means for their relationship.Hit play for Jared’s unfiltered take on these tricky situations! 🎙️💌Support the podcast by supporting our sponsors!Support the show &amp; get started with EveryPlate.

This week’s Chit Chat Wednesday is a comedy deep dive with the hilarious and well-traveled Turner Sparks! Before becoming a full-time comedian, Turner spent over a decade in China, where he not only performed stand-up but also ran his own Mister Softee ice cream business in Suzhou.

Jared is back from Australia and has a lot to get off his chest—starting with his nightmare experience with Delta’s Diamond Medallion Line. ✈️💎 You’d think being a loyal traveler would get you some perks, but instead, Jared got the runaround while trying to get back to NYC. He breaks down the frustrating reality of airline status, long hold times, and the illusion of elite treatment. 😤📞And of course, we’ve got three top-tier listener complaints that will have you nodding in frustration:🚶‍♂️ Footstep Fury – A listener’s downstairs neighbor (Bob) is losing sleep over the sound of…footsteps. Despite rugs, slippers, a sound machine, and earplugs, Bob claims it’s ruining his health. Is there anything they can do—or is this just city living? 🏙️🔊🍽️ Gift Card Guilt – Did you know that DoorDash digital gift cards notify the sender when you use them? 😳 One listener found out the hard way when their friend texted right after they redeemed it. Now they can’t stop wondering… why hasn’t the $100 card they sent 10 months ago been used?! 🤔🎁🎙️ Podcast Intro Problems – Ever get confused when a podcast starts with a preview instead of a jingle? This listener hates the trend, thinking they accidentally skipped an episode.

Jared is back from Australia and jet lagged!😴 He's live from the West Village diving into emails from listeners tackling love, regrets, and the future of relationships.First, a listener shares a jaw-dropping story about an ex who blindsided her with a breakup—only to resurface years later in the middle of a bitter divorce, admitting he made a huge mistake. Did she dodge a bullet, or is this karma coming full circle?Then, another listener questions where her relationship is headed after nearly two years of dating. Her boyfriend has never initiated conversations about the future, and now she’s wondering—are they just too different, or is she overthinking it?

In this episode of the JTrain podcast, Jared shares a thoughtful approach to nurturing intimacy in relationships: a once-a-month "peak and pit" date night. The idea is to create a regular space for connection where each partner shares their "peak" (the best moment or highlight of the month) and their "pit" (a challenging or low point). By framing the check-in this way, couples can celebrate their wins, acknowledge struggles, and foster open communication without the heaviness of a formal relationship talk. It’s about strengthening the bond through honesty and understanding.Leandra agrees that adding a playful twist makes the practice feel less like a chore and more like an opportunity to deepen the relationship. She suggests couples find ways to make the night special — whether it’s dressing up for dinner, recreating a favorite date, or staying in for a cozy night with their favorite movie. The goal is to create an environment where both partners feel safe, heard, and connected.An intimacy coach plays a pivotal role in guiding couples through practices like these. They help partners build emotional closeness, improve communication, and reignite passion by introducing tools for deeper connection. From helping couples navigate conflict to exploring new ways to cultivate physical and emotional intimacy, an intimacy coach encourages vulnerability and trust. They might offer personalized exercises, like the "peak and pit" check-in, to create intentional moments of reflection and bonding.Together, Jared and Leandra emphasize that prioritizing intimacy doesn’t have to be complicated or heavy — it can be as simple as carving out time to laugh, share, and grow together. The key is consistency and a willingness to show up for each other, month after month.Leandra Petroff is a Certified Somatica® Sex and Relationship Coach. Book your free alignment call today at www.intimacywithleandra.com. Follow @intimacywithleandra for juicy tips and insights! Support the podcast by supporting our sponsors!VIIA Try VIIA with code JTRAIN at https://viia.co/JTRAIN🙋🏻‍♂️ Jared FreidInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/jaredfreidTwitter - https://twitter.com/jtrain56TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@wizardofhaWebsite - https://jaredfreid.com/🎙🚊Follow JTrain PodcastPatreon - https://www.patreon.com/jaredfreidInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/jtrainpodcast🙋‍♀️ Our Producer Venetia AKA VWebsite - https://www.venetiageras.com/Twitter - https://twitter.com/venetiaagerasInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/venetiaageras/Hop on the "JTrain" with comedian Jared Freid and his crew of pals, including YOU!

It’s Ticked Off Tuesday, and Jared is diving into listener complaints that are as hilarious as they are infuriating. One listener vents about the absurdity of airline pricing after booking two identical seats at wildly different costs just to save $40. Another listener rages over paying for YouTube Premium, only to suffer through creator-inserted ad breaks — and don’t even get them started on people with blinding headlights in drive-thrus. And finally, we break down the wild world of rural Canadian “stag and doe” parties, where a listener is asked to drive 2.5 hours, pay for entry, and bid in a silent auction… for a wedding they’re not even invited to. Is this just a cultural difference, or next-level entitlement? Jared sorts through the madness with his signature blend of humor and sharp takes.

It’s Ticked Off Tuesday on the JTrain Podcast, and Jared Freid is here to unpack your latest frustrations with his signature mix of humor and honesty. First up, a listener finally works up the courage to ask out a guy she’s been flirting with over calls and texts — only for him to say, “Remind me to make plans.” Is he genuinely forgetful or just not that into her? Jared breaks it down and debates whether traveling to his neighborhood on date one sets a bad precedent.Next, a volunteer musician rants about her orchestra friends complaining about a $5 parking fee, even though it gets them access to a stunning new venue. Is it worth the upgrade, or are people just addicted to whining? Jared shares his performer perspective on why some things are worth the cost.Finally, an iPhone user is ticked off over Apple’s absurd “shake to undo” feature. Why can we create custom emojis and edit photos, but still can’t get a simple undo button for texts? Jared shares in the frustration and wonders if it’s time to start a petition.Tune in for relatable rants, dating dilemmas, and plenty of laughs along the way.Support the podcast by supporting our sponsors!Hero Bread Support the show and get 10% off your Hero Bread order.

It’s Chit Chat Wednesday, and Jared is bringing the laughs with comedian and expert performer Rich Aronovitch — the kind of funny that makes you snort-laugh and immediately look around to see if anyone noticed. 🫠This episode is a wild ride through the highs and lows of comedy on the high seas, where soft-serve flows like water, and parents scream, “You want to play, you gotta pay!” at their hungover kids. Jared and Rich share cruise ship horror stories, break down the absurdity of people fishing for freebies, and unpack the tightrope walk of comics teetering between edgy and canceled.They also dive into Rich’s new standup special (watch it now at RichIsFunny.com), which has Jared obsessed with the “stupid funny” final bit. From eerily accurate Trump impressions to viral TikTok dances that turn confused bystanders into accidental fans, Rich dishes on the rollercoaster of online comedy feedback and the chaos of dropping a special when everyone’s flooding YouTube.If you’re craving pure fun, unexpected moments, and an unfiltered peek behind the curtain of the comedy world, this is your episode. Get ready to laugh till your face hurts — and don’t forget to catch Rich’s special for even more hilarity! 🤣Support the podcast by supporting our sponsors!EveryPlate Support the show and get 50% off your 1 st EveryPlate box with the code JTRAIN50 at https://www.everyplate.com/podcast🙋🏻‍♂️ Jared FreidInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/jaredfreidTwitter - https://twitter.com/jtrain56TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@wizardofhaWebsite - https://jaredfreid.com/🎙🚊Follow JTrain PodcastPatreon - https://www.patreon.com/jaredfreidInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/jtrainpodcast🙋‍♀️ Our Producer Venetia AKA VWebsite - https://www.venetiageras.com/Twitter - https://twitter.com/venetiaagerasInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/venetiaageras/Hop on the "JTrain" with comedian Jared Freid and his crew of pals, including YOU!

Jared Freid is back for another Ticked Off Tuesday, and the complaints are rolling in hotter than airplane Wi-Fi (which, by the way, is its own nightmare). This week, listeners sound off on the little things that drive them crazy:One listener shares her frustration with coworkers who abuse the “reply all” button, turning a simple scheduling request into a never-ending email thread. Then, a listener defends Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime show, calling out boomers who can’t handle a performance that isn’t tailored to them — if we can sit through The Who and Tom Petty, they can handle a few songs from an award-winning album.Valentine’s Day drama makes an appearance, too, with a listener who asked her husband for See’s Candies weeks in advance, only to watch him fumble the bag while a sixth grader successfully scored chocolates for his girlfriend.Jared reads it all with his signature mix of empathy and roast-level honesty. Buckle up — it’s a therapeutic vent session you won’t want to miss!Want more JTRAIN?

It’s Chit Chat Wednesday on The JTrain Podcast, and Jared is joined by the razor-sharp, brutally funny Rosebud Baker! Fresh off the release of her new Netflix special The Motherlode, Rosebud gives us the inside scoop on what it was like filming half her special while eight months pregnant and the other half while sleep-deprived and covered in baby spit-up.Jared and Rosebud take a hilarious deep dive into the rollercoaster of motherhood, marriage, and stand-up comedy, playing a game of "Peaks and Pits" to unpack everything from parenting in NYC to the subtle art of keeping a relationship spicy when your biggest turn-on is uninterrupted sleep. Rosebud also shares the surreal experience of being worshipped like a rockstar by her toddler—right before being judged by her nanny for prioritizing podcasting over nap time.The two swap takes on sobriety, why being the only sober person at a work party is a social experiment in patience, and their irrational (but very real) fears—like plane crashes, parenting fails, and the existential horror of running into an ex while holding a screaming child.Get ready for sharp observations, unfiltered laughs, and a much-needed reminder to stream The Motherlode early and often (because algorithms, people!). Don’t miss this episode packed with Chit Chat chaos and top-tier parenting wisdom—aka “don’t drop the baby, and don’t drop the bit.”Want more JTRAIN?

Feather feather! It’s another Monday Mailbag with Jared Freid, where your dating dilemmas get the Papa J treatment. First up, a listener wonders if she's dating a guy or just a part-time pen pal. After four amazing dates, the daily texting is great, but why does it take him five days to lock in the next hang? She’s debating how to ask for more consistent planning without coming on too strong. Jared breaks down how to communicate your needs without the ultimatum vibes.Then, we’ve got a long-distance lover on the edge of a meltdown. Nine months of FaceTimes, two visits, future talk, and even marriage chatter—but no “girlfriend” title. Is his “I just need to work on myself” line legit, or is she stuck in a situationship that’s going nowhere? Jared gives his no-BS take on labels, timing, and when to call it quits.If you’ve ever been caught between casual and commitment, this one’s for you.

First, Jared responds to a med school listener whose whirlwind romance with the class clown took a sharp turn into weirdsville. From bizarre family dynamics involving a touchy sibling to a jaw-dropping white coat ceremony reveal, this story is packed with twists, including a moment that made her walk out for good. But now that she's trying to stay civil, friends say she's being too nice—what should she do?Next up, a listener seeks advice on some late-night Instagram behavior from her friend’s husband. Picture this: 2 AM likes on photos dating back to 2019… and then another spree at 4 AM, this time digging all the way to 2016. Is this classic "tap the glass" flirting? Should she tell the wife, confront him, or steer clear entirely? Jared breaks it all down with thoughtful advice, sharp humor, and insights you won’t want to miss.Want more JTRAIN?

In this episode of The JTrain Podcast, Jared lets the feathers fly as listeners share their most aggravating complaints:First, Jared commiserates with a listener fed up with hotels that still don’t have smart TVs. In 2025, flipping through local channels shouldn't be a thing when you're paying $140 a night.

Jared breaks down where dog etiquette is crossing the line and wonders if inconsiderate dog owners are just oblivious—or selfish.Then, a listener is tired of friends guilt-tripping them about following POTUS on Instagram. Jared offers his take on social media self-righteousness and the value of staying informed straight from the source.Finally, Jared weighs in on a dinner dilemma.

Jared is back for a special Chit Chat Wednesday, and this week he’s joined by comedian Liza Treyger, fresh off the release of her Netflix special Night Owl. They dive right into the wild ride of creating a comedy special — from dealing with creative pressures to staying authentic when the stakes are high. Liza keeps it real, sharing her thoughts on embracing fame (without a personal team to back her up) and why early support from viewers can completely change an artist’s trajectory 🎥🍿 Jared doubles down, explaining why it’s so crucial to hit play early and often with the artist you support. Also share content!Things get hilariously chaotic as they swap stories about handmade party bracelets and spicy food disasters à la Hot Ones. They break down the delicate art of being a good plus-one and navigating awkward guests at comedy events. Liza’s take? Comedians are just sensitive souls who really want people to “act right” 🙃.The conversation takes thoughtful turns too, as they reflect on how jokes hit differently based on lived experiences, outdated ideas of bravery in entertainment, and the importance of keeping passion at the heart of the craft. With witty banter, deep insights, and plenty of laughs, this episode is a must-listen. And seriously — hit play on Night Owl now! 🎤✨Want more JTRAIN?

In this week’s Mailbag Mondays, host Jared dives into two emotionally charged listener dilemmas that demand his signature blend of humor and honesty. From virtual betrayals to mixed signals in the workplace, Jared is here to break it all down.First up, a listener grapples with the aftermath of discovering her husband’s emotional affair in the virtual reality world. After learning about the betrayal—complete with screen grabs and “I love you” messages—she’s left questioning everything about their marriage. Jared shares thoughtful advice on rebuilding trust, navigating marriage counseling, and figuring out how to stop the obsessive cycle of re-checking and replaying. Can their relationship survive this digital heartache?Then, it’s a tale of workplace flirtation gone cold. A listener met a guy at her job just as he was leaving, took a bold shot in his DMs, and got... an ambiguous response. Is she reading too much into it? Should she shoot her shot one more time or let it go? Jared dissects the psychology of social media follow-backs, modern dating ambiguity, and why some guys just can’t commit to grabbing a drink.Whether it’s navigating marriage post-betrayal or decoding the maddening mind games of dating apps, this episode is packed with Jared’s no-nonsense advice for anyone trying to make sense of modern love.

Happy (almost) New Year from sunny Boca Raton! 🌴🎉 Jared Freid is kicking off 2025 with a brand-new Mailbag Monday, answering two incredible listener dilemmas that embody everything the JTrain Podcast is all about—honest advice, tough love, and plenty of laughs.First, we meet a listener who booked a 3 week European vacation with her boyfriend of just 4 months. But now she’s having serious second thoughts about their long-term compatibility. With the trip fully paid for by him, she’s torn about whether to go, how to handle the breakup if it happens, and what trip lengths make sense for new relationships. Jared dives deep, offering insights on travel, timing, and when it’s time to move on versus sticking it out.Next, it’s a group chat disaster for the ages! A voice memo intended for a bestie lands in the “birthday weekend cabin trip” group chat instead, spilling the tea on the birthday girl’s friends and the weekend plans. The fallout? The group chat implodes, the trip is canceled, and now the listener is left wondering how to repair her best friend’s birthday and their relationship. Jared breaks down the best strategies to rebuild trust, whether to go heartfelt or funny with the apology, and why group chat etiquette should never involve long voice memos.Along the way, Jared shares updates about his upcoming comedy tour (hello, Portland, Phoenix, and Australia!), what makes the JTrain Podcast a no-days-off operation, and why his perspective on dating and friendships remains unmatched!!This episode is packed with thoughtful advice, hilarious commentary, and Jared’s signature style of tackling tough topics with care.

It’s Chit Chat Wednesday, and Jared welcomes the endlessly hilarious Caitlin Peluffo to the show! They’re diving into all things holidays, singlehood, and comedy, making this episode the perfect mix of relatable reflections and big laughs.  First up, Caitlin shares what it’s like going home for the holidays as a single adult. Spoiler alert: her family is full-on Christmas obsessed🎄 From Christmas Eve traditions to waking up on Christmas Day, Caitlin paints a vivid picture of what it’s like to grow up in a house that could double as Santa’s workshop. Jared, who’s more of a Christmas casual, listens in awe and gets a newfound appreciation for the magic (and occasional madness) of the holiday season.  They don’t just stop at holiday stories, though. Caitlin and Jared also tackle some real talk about navigating singlehood during family gatherings, the growing trend of freezing eggs, and the subtle (or not-so-subtle) pressures that come from well-meaning relatives this time of year. If you’ve ever had to dodge a “So, when are you settling down?” question over a plate of holiday ham, you’ll feel seen.  On the comedy front, Jared opens up about his experiences with crowd work and dealing with hecklers while on the road recently. Caitlin shares her approach to engaging audiences, and together they explore the balance between owning the stage and handling unexpected moments. If you’re curious about the behind-the-scenes of life as a comedian, this part of the convo is for you  ✨ Bonus: Catch Caitlin performing live this New Year’s Week—she’s an absolute must-see on stage!🎄 Merry Christmas to all, and to all, enjoy this laugh-filled episode! 🎅Also! email your favorite stories to jtrainpodcast@gmail.com or DM the pod on Instagram @jtrainpodcast🎙Upcoming Shows: Portland, Phoenix, and more!

Pop Culture Thursday!! In this jam-packed episode, Jared tackles the NBA Cup drama and offers his hilarious ideas on how to make it better. Then, he dives into Taylor Swift's birthday celebrations—what do you get for someone who has it all? Plus, Craig and Austen from Southern Charm open a bar, and Jared has thoughts. Stick around for listener emails, dating dilemmas, and, of course, a luxury lounge segment you don’t want to miss. It’s all the opinions you didn’t know you needed, delivered with Jared’s signature wit and humor!First up, Jared shares his excitement over an article about Craig Conover and Austin Kroll of Southern Charm, who just opened a new bar in Charleston, South Carolina. Jared's longtime friend Keith Benjamin is their partner in this venture, and he takes us down memory lane, sharing stories about their friendship, Keith’s rise in the hospitality world, and how Charleston became Keith’s playground for success. From opening Uptown Social to now co-owning The Cozy Den, Keith’s journey inspires and entertains. Jared even includes an exclusive quote from Keith about the vibe, food, and freezing martinis at their new spot.But the fun doesn’t stop there. Jared gives us his take on the bar’s aesthetic, menu highlights (hello, French onion dip and fox wings), and what makes this bar a must-visit spot. Whether you're planning a bachelor party or just love elevated tavern food, The Cozy Den might be your next destination.Later, Jared switches gears to the world of NYC real estate—well, sort of. Supermodel Gigi Hadid’s recent revelation about dealing with a rat problem in her New York apartment gets Jared talking about the universal woes of NYC living. Whether you're a billionaire or living in a tiny studio, it turns out no one is safe from the city’s infamous rodent invasion.Jared unpacks the latest drama surrounding Vanderpump Rules alum Tom Sandoval. Jared humorously reflects on Sandoval’s inability to escape his cheating reputation, questioning whether the public fight between Sandoval and his girlfriend, Victoria Lee Robinson, is just another ploy to keep his name in the headlines. Jared’s take? “Tiger doesn’t change his stripes—drama is Sandoval’s natural habitat.”Next, Jared turns his sights on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Christmas card, sharing his own amusing tradition of ranking holiday cards with a friend. He critiques the inclusion of their production company, Archewell Productions, on the card, and questions the hype over a “rare photo” of their kids. His candid commentary pokes at the couple’s balancing act between seeking privacy and leveraging their royal titles for public interest.Jared reads about Victoria Beckham clearing up plastic surgery rumors, marveling at how an interview about her nose becomes a full-blown PR moment to plug her contouring skills and beauty line. His lighthearted analysis, paired with witty skepticism, makes for an entertaining exploration of celebrity branding and public image.He dives into Jim Carrey's "retirement" comments and why the internet got it wrong, Timothée Chalamet's bold Bob Dylan-inspired look, and what makes him a showstopper on and off-screen. Then, Jared dissects the PR spectacle around Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's relationship, decoding the art of the perfectly curated boyfriend narrative. Finally, he shares his take on the NBA Cup's declining ratings and why players (and fans) might need a reason to care.Email your favorite stories to jtrainpodcast@gmail.com or DM the pod on Instagram @jtrainpodcast🎙 Upcoming Shows: Batavia, Portland, Phoenix, and more!

This week on the JTrain Podcast, Jared Freid sits down with his hilarious friend and comedian Nimesh Patel for a packed Chit Chat Wednesday! They dive into Nimesh’s life as a new dad, sharing what’s surprised him most about fatherhood. Jared also quizzes Nimesh about the looming TikTok ban and how the app has played a major role in his career—leading to a shocking revelation that leaves Jared speechless.

It’s a mix of comedy, relatable truths, and behind-the-scenes stories of juggling stand-up success, finances, and family.Whether you're a creator, a parent, or someone who just wants to know where your money might be hiding—this episode’s for you!Email your questions to jtrainpodcast@gmail.com or DM the pod on Instagram @jtrainpodcast🎙 Upcoming Shows: Batavia, Portland, Phoenix, and more!

It's Ticked Off Tuesday!! Jared channels your frustrations and gives your gripes the spotlight they deserve. Is there something driving you nuts? Something seemingly small, but it’s eating away at your soul? This is the place where your problems matter—no one here will tell you to “chill out” or “look at the bigger picture.”This week, Jared recounts a wild night in Des Moines, Iowa, where holiday party chaos took center stage, and offers his take on why not every party is built for a comedy show. Plus, Jared shares what makes the hustle of stand-up comedy so uniquely frustrating yet rewarding.Want your gripe to be heard? Subscribe to Jared’s Patreon for early access and priority placement on Ticked Off Tuesday. Join the fun, vent your frustrations, and let Jared tell you why you’re absolutely right to be ticked off!Jared dives deep into the trials and tribulations of travel, customer service fails, and holiday chaos. A listener who works in sales qualified for their company's prestigious President's Club trip, but they have zero interest in going. Why? The destination is an obscure coastal European city that takes three flights and 15 hours to reach. Plus, they'd need to pay for childcare for a week just to attend. The listener laments the lack of a cash bonus alternative and struggles to find anyone in real life who will sympathize with their gripe about a "free luxury vacation." Their closing plea? "Why couldn't it be Greece or Italy?"One listener is ticked off that post-pandemic, malls in Austin now open at 11 a.m. instead of 10 a.m. For a busy parent who loves in-person shopping (and avoids the hassle of online returns), this hour difference ruins their limited kid-free time. They argue malls should even open at 9 a.m. to better serve shoppers during the holidays. Bonus complaint: the disappearance of 24-hour stores and restaurants that used to be staples pre-pandemic.Another listener attended the Vienna Boys Choir performance at Carnegie Hall, only to be distracted by the woman next to them tapping her foot out of rhythm. The listener compares this to the U Up podcast debate about singing during movies but makes a clear distinction—tickets to Wicked are cheap and plentiful, while Carnegie Hall's Vienna Boys Choir is a once-a-year, premium experience. The kicker? Even the venue hands out cough drops to minimize disruptions, yet this woman thought constant foot-tapping was appropriate. The listener's husband says they sound like a 70-year-old British father, but Jared is ready to join in the complaint chorus.It’s a hilarious episode of relatable gripes, classic JTrain tangents, and Jared’s signature ability to turn life’s inconveniences into comedic gold. Plus, three listener complaints that round out the show with even more laughs.Email your questions to jtrainpodcast@gmail.com or DM the pod on Instagram @jtrainpodcast🎙 Upcoming Shows: Batavia, Portland, Phoenix, and more!

It's Ticked Off Tuesday!! Live from Tulsa, Oklahoma, Jared is ready to unleash his signature blend of humor and righteous complaints. This week, Jared's mood sets the tone as he dives into hotel grievances—from the impossible-to-use rectangular lotion bottles to the empty wall-mounted shampoo debacle. Ever wondered how much hand strength you need to battle hotel amenities? Jared’s got you covered with hilarious hot takes and unexpected life lessons.He also shares a behind-the-scenes look at life on the road, prepping for his comedy special, and why shower thoughts can lead to the best ideas (or the angriest complaints). Plus, he shouts out his loyal Patreon fans and introduces two sponsors, Hero Bread and Lumen, who are here to help you navigate the holidays without sacrificing your health goals.Then, he unpacks the ultimate comedian pet peeve: unsolicited heckling. After a wild DM exchange between his brother and an over-eager audience member, Jared reflects on why crowd work needs to be natural, not forced. From hosting at the Comedy Cellar for years to handling unpredictable hecklers, Jared explains the delicate balance of creating a great live comedy experience. Spoiler alert: it’s harder than it looks.As always, Jared keeps it real, sharing behind-the-scenes insights from the world of standup and responding to the ultimate question: is the heckler helping, or is it the comedian saving the day? Picture this—your boy JTrain is Mario, deftly jumping over barrels of chaos, keeping the laughs rolling every 10-15 seconds for an impressive hour and ten minutes. But what happens when a group of rotten audience members (yes, rotten, Jared’s new favorite word) steals the spotlight for all the wrong reasons? From bathroom trips and chatter to one guy cutting the post-show meet-and-greet line to interrupt with irrelevant banter, this story has it all.And here's the kicker: one of the group members claimed to know Jared’s brother but couldn’t muster the decency to apologize for their behavior—or even have a proper conversation. Jared dives deep into the dynamics of respect, accountability, and the bizarre notion of “support” that ends the moment someone walks through the door. Spoiler alert: a little mensch-like behavior could have gone a long way.As the rant shifts gears, Jared tackles another "ticked-off Tuesday" classic: the curse of bad dining suggestions. He passionately advocates for putting thought into restaurant choices, especially in vibrant cities brimming with culinary treasures. No more chain restaurants or blackout college bars—Jared’s got a foolproof plan involving Eater lists, authentic vibes, and a dash of food artistry.Plus, he explores the ultimate workplace awkwardness: coworkers speaking another language in front of you, leaving you out of the loop. It’s a conversation about inclusivity, vulnerability, and the delicate balance of addressing these situations without crossing a line.The episode is packed with sharp humor, relatable rants, and Jared’s signature ability to turn everyday annoyances into comedic gold. Tune in for all this and more—including upcoming tour dates and why Chili’s mozzarella sticks don’t cut it for a foodie like Jared!! 😂🙌Support the podcast by supporting our sponsors!Lumen Support the show and get 15% off your Lumen.

It's Pop Culture Thursday! from the West Village, Manhattan! Jared dives into the latest in celebrity news, quirky events, and a wild mix of pop culture headlines. Jared starts off the pod with an upcoming trip to Tulsa, Oklahoma, for five comedy shows and a guest spot on the I’ve Had It podcast with Jennifer Welch and Pumps. Jared shares his thoughts on personal style (inside pants vs. outside pants, anyone?) and dishes out plenty of sharp, self-aware humor. A deep dive into the hilarity of lookalike contests, including Chicago’s Jeremy Allen White lookalike competition, complete with blue aprons and cigarettes. Jared suggests Blake Lively’s PR team might want to take notes from Timothy Chalamet’s surprise appearance at his own lookalike event! 😂We learn Lamar Odom’s eyebrow-raising confession about a custom sex doll resembling his ex-wife Khloé Kardashian—cue the awkward laughs and Jared’s sharp commentary. Jared discusses the backlash surrounding rumors about Pete Davidson’s alleged rehab stint and brief fling with The Bachelor alum Maria Gorgas. While Gorgas vehemently denies the claims, Jared reflects on her tendency to respond to headlines with bold, unfiltered statements, drawing parallels to her “no-apology” attitude from The Bachelor. He also touches on Pete’s struggles with addiction, empathizing with both parties while critiquing the clickbait culture around mental health.Jared comments on more Kardashian news! The Kardashian kids are growing up! Mason Disick, 14, towers over his mom Kourtney during a grocery run.

Jared wraps up with thoughts on the viral SNL “Domingo” sketch. While he doesn’t find the content groundbreaking, he acknowledges its catchy charm and how TikTok’s sound-driven appeal keeps sketches like this trending.Comedy legend Jay Leno’s misadventures continue—this time, a tumble down a hill leaves him bruised and bandaged. Jared shares admiration for Leno’s legacy, recalling his reputation as one of the hardest-working and kindest comics in the business, while humorously questioning why a 74-year-old is scaling steep hills.Want more JTRAIN?

Welcome to another episode of TICKED OFF TUESDAY! 👏Jared dives into his inbox of grievances, sharing listener complaints and sprinkling in a few of his own, recorded live from St. Louis, Missouri! This week’s episode features Jared’s hilariously detailed take on Marriott hotels, where his loyalty as an elite Bonvoy member seems to have hit a few roadblocks.First up, Jared vents about the elusive M Club lounge, which was inexplicably closed for the weekend—a fact delivered with what he describes as a blatant lie from the front desk. Then, in a twist of corporate irony, he discovers no complimentary bottled water in his room. Instead, he’s greeted with a “Fill It Forward” initiative: a branded reusable water bottle emblazoned with the St. Louis skyline, available for purchase at $14.95.Jared breaks down the absurdity of this “altruistic” gesture, where guests are expected to buy the bottle, scan it, and refill it to "give clean water." He hilariously questions the practicality of the campaign, pointing out that instead of making his stay eco-friendlier, the move left him waterless and frustrated. Then Jared dives into the hilariously frustrating world of over-medium eggs🍳 From the mysterious art of nailing the perfect yolk consistency to a call for national egg-cooking guidelines, Jared and listeners vent about the perils of breakfast orders gone wrong. He then takes on workplace woes with a ticked-off tale of awkward office scavenger hunts and petty coworker grievances. Jared's sharp commentary exposes the absurdities of it all, making you laugh while secretly nodding in agreement😅Want more JTRAIN?

It's MAILBAG MONDAY! 💌 🙌 Live from his hotel room in St. Louis, Missouri, while gearing up for his comedy special, Jared Freid dives into another edition of Mailbag Monday with sharp insights and laugh-out-loud moments.  ⚠️ Trigger Warning: ⚠️ The first email briefly mentions domestic violence. If you or someone you know is in need of support, please contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) or visit thehotline.org for confidential resources and assistance.  In the first email, a listener debates whether they’re being too picky for making “smoking” on a dating profile a dealbreaker. Jared weighs in with his take on the fine line between being true to your standards and giving someone a chance. Is this an unbendable boundary or an opportunity to learn more about a potential match? Jared brings his usual humor and honesty to the discussion.  The listener shares concerns about their ex partner’s controlling behavior, like micromanaging small decisions and setting rules around their daily life. Jared calls out the red flags and offers thoughtful advice on navigating this complex situation while emphasizing the importance of safety and reaching out for help when needed.  Finally, the episode wraps up with a puzzling story involving a mysterious Uber ride sent by a former situationship. Jared hilariously dissects the possibilities—was it an accidental drunk text, a misplaced booty call, or something else entirely? His sharp observations and candid advice will leave you laughing and questioning your own late-night texts.This episode seamlessly balances introspection, laughter, and relatable dating struggles.Want more JTRAIN?

It's POP CULTURE THURSDAY !! This week on the JTrain Podcast, Jared Freid dives into People Magazine's announcement of John Krasinski as the "Sexiest Man Alive." In his signature Pop Culture Thursday style, Jared takes us through a mix of headlines and hot takes as he reacts to the news, questions the choice, and humorously dissects the ongoing debate around celebrity sex appeal. Jared also reflects on the timeless appeal of Krasinski and how his marriage to Emily Blunt might contribute to his "sexiness."The episode doesn’t stop there—Jared also shares insights on "B Movies with the Baby," his recurring guest segment that rates low-stakes flicks, especially for those curious if they're worth a plane watch. Plus, Jared reflects on male versus female sex appeal, from Sabrina Carpenter’s “female beauty” to Sydney Sweeney’s “guy hot” aura, breaking down why these differences spark such spirited conversations. Jared dives into the world of People’s “Sexiest Man Alive” and the very real anxieties that come with holding such a title. He jokes about how men receiving this kind of recognition are just asking to be teased—especially by their friends. Jared shares a hilarious story of how any compliment he receives, like losing weight, gets instantly undermined by his dad. In 2021, Paul Rudd was named “Sexiest Man Alive” and even he worried about being mocked for it! The conversation moves to Jared’s dad, whose response to any compliment for Jared seems to be endless jokes at his expense😅Jared calls out “The Baby,” the JTrain’s movie correspondent. The Baby, known for his hilarious obsession with Glen Powell, had written a whole dissertation on Powell being the obvious choice for “Sexiest Man Alive” over the newly crowned John Krasinski👑 In his passionate response, The Baby crowns Powell as the JTrain’s first-ever “Sexiest Man Alive.” This leads Jared to declare that the JTrain will now give out its own annual “Sexiest Man Alive” award, a title that Glen Powell proudly holds as the inaugural winner!!! 🏆Then, the discussion takes a nostalgic look back at past winners, from Mel Gibson to Mark Harmon, as Jared reflects on how the “Sexiest Man Alive” honor has evolved 😂🏆🙌 The conversation closes with musings on how each era had its own definition of sexy, leading Jared to a humorous exploration of who’s made the list over the years.Want more JTRAIN?

It's Chit Chat Wednesday, and today, we’re thrilled to have comedian  @AdrienneIapalucci  joining us!! Adrienne is a friend of the show and a stand-up favorite, and she's here to talk about her new Netflix special, The Dark Queen !! Check it out!Jared introduces Adrienne as "a true stand-up," bringing sharp, dark humor to her special that’s already making waves. Adrienne’s brand of comedy is refreshingly bold, different, and unapologetically funny. If you've seen other comedians hyping it up on social media, there’s good reason! Jared and Adrienne dig into the journey of creating a special for Netflix, the ups and downs of comedy life, and the unexpected challenges of "making it" in the stand-up world. They also touch on the quirks of being a comedian, from well-meaning but awkward fan interactions to the wild world of Reddit commentary.Tune in to enjoy Jared and Adrienne’s candid conversation about comedy, the comedy industry, and the perseverance needed to stay true to your voice. Adrienne recounts the thrill of nailing one show only to feel disappointed with the next, sharing how new material can reignite that spark. They laugh about the complex reactions from audiences who, at times, love the very jokes that bore the comedian, and Adrienne highlights the strange disconnect when fans can’t tell if a set went well.They also discuss the evolving landscape of comedy, where influencers with niche content often fill traditional stand-up venues, changing audience expectations. Adrienne brings up her experience with "walking the room," referencing a memorable set where a group of cowboys exited during a military joke, showing how divisive comedy can be. Jared and Adrienne get into the contradictions in humor preferences, especially when fans who claim to love "dark comedy" balk at more provocative material.To wrap things up, Jared asks Adrienne about a joke she wishes she could have developed more. Adrienne reveals that she would have loved more time with her Middle East jokes, as world events have continued to shape the material. Fans of Adrienne’s fearless, dark humor won’t want to miss this episode – and Jared encourages everyone to check out her latest special for even more unfiltered laughs.Want more JTRAIN?

It's Ticked Off Tuesday!! We are diving deep into your annoyances and frustrations. This is the internet’s only place where every complaint—no matter how trivial—is met with enthusiastic agreement, validation, and a healthy dose of humor!! Today, Jared’s got his own set of grievances that’ll hit home. First up, a travel gripe about high-end hotels like the Ritz-Carlton in St. Louis—charging over $700 a night for a stay that he feels isn’t worth the price. Jared breaks down why the Four Seasons offers a better experience for a lower price, leaving him baffled at how the Ritz could justify such a premium. Next, Jared shares his struggle with finding workout shirts that fit right. His trips to Lululemon often lead to shirts that are either too tight in the chest or unflatteringly long. He’s on the hunt for a shirt that hits the sweet spot without feeling like a cropped gym top or a baggy mess.  Then, there’s the mystery encounter with a woman at Lululemon who wanted to trade her $100 gift card for cash. Jared found himself suspicious, trying to assess if this was a grift or an earnest offer. He dives into his thought process, balancing his natural skepticism with the desire to believe in others’ good intentions. Transitioning to the listener-submitted grievances 😅👉 Jared first digs into a classic New York complaint: the struggle for balanced bagel toppings! 🥯 One listener vents about their local bagel spot’s inability to spread cream cheese evenly – instead piling it on in clumps or slathering only one side. Jared passionately agrees, offering tactical advice, including ordering “medium cream cheese, both sides spread evenly.” He explains the ritualistic disassembly required to eat a good bagel and adds his own tip for asserting control over bagel orders: ask for gloves as a not-so-subtle reminder to the staff to get it right.Next, we dive into a "holiday gift gripe "🎄 A listener bemoans the lazy tradition of family members gifting him the same sweater or winter coat every Christmas, clearly motivated by the weather rather than any actual thoughtfulness. Jared rallies behind him, humorously suggesting a “Do-Not-Gift List” for Christmas – because who wouldn’t want to avoid yet another uninspired sweater?Finally, Jared reads a travel complaint from a listener plagued by “housekeeping faux pas” at hotels. The latest trigger? Housekeeping consistently resets the showerhead to an annoying rapid-spray setting after each clean. Jared shares his empathy, noting the increasing struggle for travelers to maintain comfort on the road!Want more JTRAIN?

It's MAILBAG MONDAY! 💌 where he takes on emails, messages, and DMs from listeners seeking his unfiltered, honest perspective. His take? He’s not a therapist but offers something just as valuable: an unbiased take with no eye contact required! We learn first what is going on with Jared! He's diving into the complex feelings that come with trying to “make it” in a big city while balancing the small-town mentality. He reflects on chasing big dreams and the pressure to constantly grow, sharing his goal to make his next comedy special iconic, despite knowing Madison Square Garden might be a lofty ambition. For Jared, this high-stakes chase feels exhausting at times, especially compared to people who seem happy with simpler lives in small towns. The question arises: is striving for success making him happier, or is it just adding stress?An email where they are looking for a job but annoying everyone about it! From a listener brings up classic feelings of being "left out" when visiting old friends who seem content in their local circles. Jared connects deeply with the listener’s high school-style anxieties about belonging, inclusion, and questioning their own life choices. He explains that even in adulthood, we never fully escape high school social dynamics—feeling left out or judged is universal. His advice? Reach out to these people again, enjoy the simplicity, and maybe embrace being the “new kid in town” as a fresh chapter rather than a source of insecurity.As the episode wraps up, Jared highlights relatable issues like hating a day job while working toward a dream. He compares it to his own struggle with writing a book, where some days are rewarding and others are draining. His takeaway: it’s tough to keep going when fulfillment feels distant, but persistence might just lead to something great.Want more JTRAIN?

It's POP CULTURE THURSDAY! Jared’s sifting through the headlines—from Brady’s “I’m focused on work and kids” PR spin to Kristin Cavallari’s eyebrow-raising comments about Britney Spears. He’s got thoughts on it all and welcomes listeners to send in the stories they want his two cents on! And in true Jared fashion, he’s calling it as he sees it—whether it’s tabloids pushing a narrative or celebs playing the Hollywood PR game. Join for hot takes, laughs, and a chance to unplug from the endless scroll.Jared dives into Heidi Klum’s bold new lingerie campaign, featuring a stunning trifecta of family glamour: Heidi herself, her 20-year-old daughter Leni, and her 80-year-old mother, Erna. Jared brings his spin on Erna's name, quipping that it’s the kind of name that sounds regal in German but feels a little… offbeat in New York. And if you were wondering if three generations of Klums were just “modeling or making out” in those photos—yes, people actually commented on this—Jared is here to remind us that sometimes the world just needs to chill out. Sure, a mother-daughter lingerie campaign might be unusual, but hey, modeling’s in their DNA, right?!Then, in a turn toward the unexpectedly heartfelt, Jared reflects on Christina Applegate’s recent health struggles with MS, honoring her courage in sharing the reality of her condition. It's a softer moment amid the laughs, as he appreciates the vulnerability she brings to her public battles. Finally, Jared shifts to a slightly bizarre Gypsy Rose Blanchard update, the woman famous for the complex case of her mother’s murder. Apparently, Gypsy just took a paternity test to quell online speculation about her baby’s father—something Jared finds as bizarre as the internet’s obsession with her life. It’s like Maury, but make it… Instagram?By the end of the episode, Jared’s spun up a rollercoaster of critiques, laughs, and that familiar, incisive wit we crave every week.Want more JTRAIN?

This week on JTrain, Jared is joined by the brilliant Nora Princiotti for an electrifying discussion of pop culture! Who's the powerhouse personalities behind today’s biggest hits? The two dive in 🙌🎵 Nora, a co-host on The Ringer NFL Show and Every Single Album, brings her unique blend of insight and passion—especially for Taylor Swift, whose career and influence serve as a fascinating focal point for the episode. Together, Jared and Nora dive deep into Taylor’s journey from a Nashville up-and-comer to a global superstar, discussing how she became a voice for generations and built one of the most devoted fanbases in music.The conversation doesn’t stop there, though! Jared and Nora break down the layered world of today’s pop stars, contrasting the introspective and "bedroom pop" appeal of Taylor Swift with the edgy, club-kid vibe of Charli XCX. They explore how pop stars like Charli XCX, Sabrina Carpenter, and Olivia Rodrigo each represent distinct facets of modern femininity, almost like avatars for different "going out" personalities. Whether it’s Taylor’s relatable authenticity, Charli’s wild, underground energy, or Olivia’s confessional style, Jared has a theory—dubbed the “Taylor Swift Apocalypse”—about how each artist lets fans embody a specific persona on a night out. Nora adds a layer of depth, connecting each artist’s style to the broader traditions they represent, from Taylor’s raw introspection to the boundary-pushing boldness that defines Charli and Sabrina’s work.As always, Jared brings in some hilarious, offbeat tangents, riffing on everything from the essentials of “going out” gear (like Lumi deodorant and MeUndies) to the ever-important “end-of-rotation” underwear and why he’s officially declaring this season as “lounge season.” Expect a thoughtful, funny journey through fame, fandom, and the unique ways we relate to our favorite stars. Tune in for a lively pop culture deep dive with plenty of laughs and insights from Jared’s ever-entertaining perspective. And if you’re a pop culture lover or just curious about how today’s biggest names reflect—and shape—the world, don’t miss this episode! Plus, make sure to check out Nora’s podcast, *Every Single Album*, for even more music deep dives.As always, Jared brings his signature humor, relatable rants, and the occasional life lesson.

It’s Election Day, and Jared Freid is channeling all that pent-up energy into Ticked Off Tuesday complaints! He's taking on pet peeves and big gripes, starting with some juicy listener submissions from Patreon. Jared kicks off with a listener struggling with a long commute.

He's here to answer some listener emails—but not before a passionate monologue about his favorite college football show, College GameDay. Jared shares his thoughts on the new line-up, his love for the tradition, and what’s up with Pat McAfee’s $100,000 field goal challenge. From frustrations with Penn State’s coach to why he really wants to be a guest on GameDay, Jared’s got it all covered.Then, it’s time to tackle questions straight from the DMs and emails, with advice on everything from dating mishaps to friendship dilemmas. Can exes ever really be just friends? With his unfiltered take on the complexities of breakup dynamics, Jared offers up a reality check for a listener who recently split from her boyfriend yet wants to keep things platonic. His advice? Sometimes it’s best to give each other space rather than lingering on the edges of each other’s lives!!Then, in a lighter (but no less awkward) scenario, a listener asks Jared to weigh in on a pricey dinner split at her boyfriend’s birthday. After choosing a fancy Michelin-star restaurant and sharing the bill with her boyfriend’s mom, she wonders if that was the right move. Jared’s got opinions on navigating these modern-day etiquette questions—and the price of treating someone special.As always, Jared brings his signature humor, relatable rants, and the occasional life lesson.

It's POP CULTURE THURSDAY 🍾🗞Welcome to the JTrain Podcast with Jared Freid, your weekly source for hilarious and insightful takes on dating, pop culture, and everything in between! Jared dives into Hugh Grant’s amusing name choice for his youngest daughter, Blue, giving it his signature comedic take. After Grant reveals the story behind the name—a blend of panic and his older child’s influence, who originally suggested "Kevin" after a favorite minion—Jared cracks up over the "You're my boy, Blue" references she'll face for life. He reflects on how Grant has softened up since fatherhood, even as he pokes fun at Grant’s curmudgeonly reputation.Next, Jared weighs in on Channing Tatum and Zoe Kravitz’s split, taking on the vague breakup details. He jokes about the "non-story" of irreconcilable differences, guessing it’s a publicist move to quiet nosy fans. Comparing it to his own experiences with lingering social media questions post-breakup, he playfully commiserates with the stars and calls out the predictable public fascination that fuels the gossip. He imagines a sitcom scenario: A-listers desperately scrambling to repair their public image, from cryptic black-screen memes to a hilariously timed dying-plant post!Then, things get juicier as Jared dissects Broadway actor Ethan Slater’s rocky PR game following his high-profile relationship with Ariana Grande. Jared analyzes the nuanced “PR curating” that celebs use to sway public favor and muses on the very public response. From Taylor Swift’s dad gossiping mid-flight about her new romance to Heidi Klum’s flashy pizza joint, Jared pulls no punches, blending comedy and insight on the bizarre media machine around celebrity relationships. It's all PR stunts! 😅Don't forget to subscribe for fresh episodes, and join Jared on Patreon for more insider stories and rants.Want more JTRAIN?

It's CHIT CHAT WEDNESDAY!! 🙌 In this lively episode of the JTrain podcast, Jared is joined by pop culture aficionado Juliet Litman to dissect the latest in reality TV. They dive deep into the Golden Bachelorette, sharing mixed reactions on the season's vibe shift and the dynamics (or lack thereof) of this year’s Fantasy Suites. Together, they critique the male friendships—or the conspicuous absence of them—and how the show shines an unexpected light on men in their 60s attempting social interactions.Jared and Juliet reflect on whether The Bachelor franchise might be losing its allure, reminiscing about the days when viewers rallied around memorable leads and watching hopeful contestants vie for their affections. They explore how adding a semi-famous lead could revitalize the show, even imagining Tom Brady as a hypothetical Bachelor, poking fun at his post-Giselle glow-down.They then switch gears to “Love Is Blind,” celebrating the real-time relationship drama and critiquing the latest season's editing choices, face-to-camera cuts, and how producers could improve. It's a pop culture feast for anyone craving an irreverent take on today’s biggest shows, complete with witty banter and bold hot takes.Jared and Juliet dive into the Taylor Swift phenomenon too. They chat about Taylor’s influence, her devoted fanbase, and the cultural impact of her recent moves. Juliet brings her pop culture expertise, making for a fun breakdown of why everyone seems to be in a “Taylor era” right now. Whether you're a Swiftie or just curious about the craze, this segment is a great pop culture detour in the episode!Juliet, co-host of Food News, shares her latest dining escapade, a coveted veggie miso ramen at Ippudo, which has her rethinking the veggie option and dishing out tips to skip the lines. Jared and Juliet bond over cozy meals, discuss how culture shapes their favorite dishes, and weigh in on NYC’s unique dining scene. Then, they dive into the quirks of food recommendations and Jared’s go-to Google Maps strategy for finding those must-try spots. Along the way, they explore Parisian food finds, unforgettable meal memories, and laugh at Jared’s “so for” catchphrase. Perfect for food lovers and anyone seeking new places to try, this episode promises to be a warm, flavor-packed listen!Want to get in on the ranting?

It's Ticked Off Tuesday!! Jared Freid is back for another fiery Ticked Off Tuesday AKA Luxury Lounge, recorded from NYC’s West Village! This week, Jared dives into listener complaints and shares his own pet peeves, reminding us that all annoyances, big or small, are welcome 🙌From the audacity of people clapping when glass breaks at a restaurant to the awkwardness of paying a bill with "tap-to-pay" while a server watches, Jared shares his frustrations in true JTrain style. He also takes on the "luxury veggie sides" debate, comparing New York’s scene to LA’s, and critiques the faux pas of serving etiquette when waitstaff removes dishes prematurely.Plus, listener complaints roll in about the lavish services at airport lounges—like booking Peloton rides and showers—that aren’t as seamless as advertised. Jared agrees with the outrage while marveling at how airports are becoming fitness centers and spas for the jet-set.Then, Jared tackles the age-old question: how many olives should go in a martini? One listener’s story of a bar serving martinis with black olives leads Jared to a passionate discussion about bartending shortcuts and drink quality. Later, he highlights NYC's “Mother’s Ruin” bar, known for its unique red martini made with a Castelvetrano olive and its amazing late-night food!Wrapping up, Jared shares empathy for a listener’s frustration with friends who send house listings that miss the mark.Want to get in on the ranting?

It's Monday which means Jared has a Mailbag Monday for you! This week, he’s tackling two heavy-hitting topics: “I’m Having an Emotional Affair with My Neighbor” and “2 Weddings on the Same Day.” These stories promise a captivating mix of high-stakes drama, questions, and scenarios that feel all too relatable. There's a lot of tension of an emotional affair, exploring where the line blurs between friendship and something more, especially when unspoken feelings and close proximity come into play. Meanwhile, the “Two Weddings on the Same Day” dilemma brings up all the chaos, stress, and tactical planning that come with wedding season, as Jared advises on managing conflicting commitments without losing friends — or sanity.The episode dives even deeper as Jared discusses the complexities of dating confidence, particularly when it involves age gaps and mismatched emotional availability. A listener writes in about her ongoing frustrations with a man who emotionally engages her, despite recently dating a much younger woman. Jared tackles the psychology behind this pattern, pointing out that some men may seek “easier” relationships—where fewer intense conversations and future expectations mean they can dodge vulnerability and emotional exposure.Jared thoughtfully unpacks why relationships with women in their 30s or 40s often bring a maturity that demands honesty and depth. He suggests that the listener’s age is far from the issue; rather, her date’s hesitation likely stems from his own insecurities. Dating a peer requires stepping up to accountability and commitment, and Jared emphasizes that a partner worth her time will value these qualities, not avoid them. His advice is clear and actionable: she should focus on conserving her emotional energy, setting clear boundaries, and putting her needs first. By focusing on someone who appreciates her strengths and authenticity, she can make space for a relationship that thrives on mutual respect and admiration.Tune in to this week’s Mailbag Monday for candid advice, relatable anecdotes, and the laughs you can only get from Jared Freid’s sharp and compassionate takes on modern dating!

It's Pop Culture Thursday!! 🍾🗣🗞 with his signature wit and candid takes. Jared gets into a funny review of the pop culture stories that have him fired up, including a Page Six headline about Nicole Kidman needing a break from filming sex scenes due to "fake orgasm exhaustion" for her upcoming film Baby Girl. He dissects the headline’s absurdity, diving into the world of PR spin and questioning the authenticity behind some of these attention-grabbing stories. Of course, Jared can’t help but offer his unfiltered opinion on the entire Hollywood machine and the PR games that fuel these narratives.Jared goes on to talk about how celebrities manage their image, particularly through the PR lens, and uses Blake Lively as a case study! Jared discusses how Blake Lively handled the promotion of a movie with sensitive topics, like domestic violence, and how her response seemed disconnected from those issues, impacting her public image. He points out that after the negative response, there appears to be a concerted effort by her PR team to shift the narrative with stories that paint her as relatable and down-to-earth. Jared humorously analyzes headlines like “Blake Lively waited like a normal person for a table at a NYC hotspot” and her interaction with HGTV stars, Chip and Joanna Gaines, calling them “too convenient” and clearly part of a strategy to boost her “Q rating”—a measurement of public likeability.Jared also reflects on his own proximity to Don Angie, the restaurant featured in one of these stories, and how the descriptions in the press are designed to make Blake seem like “just one of us,” eating large portions and mingling with fans. He even jokes about Blake being portrayed as someone who enjoys “fun cocktails” and lasagna, like any other New Yorker, calling it a calculated PR move 😅In closing, Jared transitions into another piece of celebrity news, covering a red carpet event where Huma Abedin, now engaged to Alex Soros, caught everyone’s attention with her jewels, but he quickly returns to how stars like Blake use the media to control public perception. Remember there are celebrity PR stunts and how the public narrative is carefully shaped.Tune in for all this and more, including a shout-out to all of you writing in! continue to write in at 👉jtrainpodcast@gmail.com or DM us at @jtrainpodcastSUPPORT THE POD BY SUPPORTING OUR SPONSORS!

It's Chit Chat Wednesday!! We have this week our hilarious guest, Alison Libby! The two are a bit tired, exhausted and burnout, and start sharing how they often feel like garbage—whether from a rough week of podcast tapings or the cumulative stress of life. Jared humorously describes this weekly check-in as a mental break, where they can air their grievances while listeners nod along, likely feeling the same.Alison talks about her new podcast Talk Town, a quirky show where she and co-hosts Greg Stone and Anthony DeVito recreate society in their own absurd way, with high doses of humor and randomness. They laugh about the original premise and how the show evolved into Greg being high while Alison and Anthony wrangle him through wild conversations about how society should be structured.The conversation shifts to food when Jared asks Alison about her best recent restaurant experience. Alison gushes about her favorite local Italian spot in Brooklyn, Rucola, a cozy restaurant offering seasonal dishes. She raves about their light breakfast options, her favorite salad—featuring escarole, feta, and marcona almonds—and their rotating pasta dishes, sharing how her love for this place has grown over the years.The conversation continues with a relatable discussion about the struggle of finding a place to grab dinner in the West Village, especially without reservations. It's near impossible to casually walk into a bar and get a snack, forcing them to settle for a slice of pizza or fries outside a bar while waiting!!The frustration is evident as they joke about needing to wait for a stool at a dive bar and the overall scarcity of walk-in options Jack’s Wife Freda is a go-to for a satisfying and healthy meal in between shows at The Comedy Cellar.Returning to the comedy, the hosts talk about jokes they're currently working on! One host shares an idea about scam texts and reminisces about how scams used to be more blatant and silly, like spam about "hot young sluts" or "bigger schlongs," 😅 compared to today's more insidious loneliness-targeting scams. The joke plays on how scams have shifted from horny to mundane, leaving everyone a bit lonelier and more susceptible to scams like fake wrong-number texts. They reflect on how these scams now feel more sophisticated but lack the fun simplicity of the past.The other host shares a joke about how hooking up with a European is always going to be better for women because of the romance of their surroundings. For instance, seeing the Eiffel Tower makes you feel more in the mood compared to driving by a Denny’s in America.With that, they end the episode on a light-hearted note about the changing nature of scams and the subtle differences in experiences between American and European settings🇪🇺🇺🇸 Tune in for all this and more, including a shout-out to all of you writing in! continue to write in at 👉jtrainpodcast@gmail.com or DM us at @jtrainpodcastSUPPORT US FROMNutrafol Support the show & get $10 off your 1st month of Nutrafol with promo code FEATHER at https://www.nutrafol.comEvery Plate Support the show and pay only $2.99 per meal, plus 50% off your first box.

It's Ticked Off Tuesday!! Jared Freid is delivering a laugh-out-loud ep where complaints take center stage. He emphasizes that his rants come from a place of fun, aiming to make listeners laugh, not tear anyone down. Jared opens up about his latest personal gripe involving Sugarfish, the trendy sushi chain with food presentation that feels more like a marketing ploy than a culinary experience. Jared dissects how millennial culture has made people susceptible to fancy packaging and high-concept dining, all the while poking fun at his own obsession with food apps. He also brings up his recent dining experiences, how these apps manipulate consumer desires, and why this entire culture just ticks him off.Shifting gears, Jared gives listeners a behind-the-scenes look at his latest comedy endeavors, including his upcoming stand-up special filmed in Tarrytown, New York. He reflects on how the special was a natural evolution from his popular Patreon series, Coffee with JTrain, and how he’s shaped his material to resonate with his fans! He also touches on his collaboration with the Girls Gotta Eat live show and how the energy of live audiences has fueled his comedy performances.Jared goes into his experience at EatsCon, a food festival where expectations clashed with reality. Jared recounts his excitement for the event, which quickly turned into a food fiasco. From anticipating a feast of pizza, Korean fried chicken, and other culinary delights, to facing scarcity backstage, Jared humorously details how the festival, meant to showcase the best of the food world, left him and others unsatisfied. Joined by Girls Gotta Eat, Ashley and Rayna, Jared explores the absurdity of receiving only a few slices of pizza and waiting for promised dishes that never arrived. His enthusiasm for food turned into a comical critique as he called out the festival’s organization, jokingly likening it to a corporate mishap that prioritized sponsors over the talent. The episode captures Jared’s knack for turning personal inconveniences into laugh-out-loud moments, with commentary on food festivals, corporate culture, and the fine line between expectation and reality. His recount of the event is full of witty observations and self-aware humor, making it a classic JTrain rant listeners will thoroughly enjoy!!Tune in for all this and more, including a shout-out to all of you writing in! continue to write in at 👉jtrainpodcast@gmail.com or DM us at @jtrainpodcastSUPPORT US FROMNutrafol Support the show & get $10 off your 1 st month of Nutrafol with promo code FEATHER at https://www.nutrafol.comEvery Plate Support the show and pay only $2.99 per meal, plus 50% off your first box.

It's Monday AKA Mailbag Monday 🙌 📩 Jared is giving you honest advice!! Jared shares insights about how he’s been answering relationship and dating questions for over a decade, often providing a safe space for listeners who seek clarity without judgment. He also introduces a hilarious new term: "The QUOAT" (Worst of All Time), a playful way to describe those who are just a tough hang.This episode also covers a wide range of topics, from the challenges comedians face when navigating sensitive social issues, to how some comics use their platform to spark controversy for attention. Jared praises stand-up legends like Bill Burr for staying true to their beliefs and discusses the evolving expectations of comedy in a politically charged environment. Jared teases tomorrow's Ticked Off Tuesday episode and shares an entertaining listener email about a European trip gone wrong, featuring non-refundable tickets, work stress, and the complexities of friendship and money😅Jared goes on to answer a question from a listener. They describe their dating situation to Jared, mentioning they've been on several dates with someone they met "in the wild" (i.e., not on dating apps). They’ve hung out about seven times over three weeks, including both planned and casual dates. Jared notes that meeting someone in real life rather than through apps creates a different dynamic, as people typically assume their app matches are talking to multiple people. When the listener asked the guy what he was looking for, his response was vague, though it seemed like he was open to a relationship. However, the listener feels that he likes her more than she likes him.Jared digs into the nuances of the conversation, pointing out that the guy's vague answer and his question about whether she's seeing other people might indicate that he's gauging her interest and seriousness. The listener admits she isn’t hooking up with anyone else but is still using dating apps and open to meeting others, although she didn’t tell him that part. Jared says the listener was as honest as she needed to be, but her friend's assumption that this makes them exclusive isn’t necessarily true.Jared unpacks the situation further, explaining how modern dating can complicate things—especially with the visibility of people on dating apps or in public. He believes that the listener’s conversation with the guy could be interpreted as more serious than it actually is, but clarifies that she’s not locked into a relationship unless she chooses to be. Jared also touches on how different people have varying "pain tolerances" when it comes to dating, referencing how some might feel guilt over dating multiple people, while others don’t see an issue until clear boundaries are set. In his analysis, Jared offers practical advice! listen to hear it all!Tune in for all this and more, including a shout-out to all of you writing in! continue to write in at 👉jtrainpodcast@gmail.com or DM us at @jtrainpodcastSUPPORT US FROM Nutrafol Support the show & get $10 off your 1 st month of Nutrafol with promo code FEATHER at https://www.nutrafol.comEvery Plate Support the show and pay only $2.99 per meal, plus 50% off your first box.

It's POP Culture Thursday! 🙌 On this episode of the JTrain Podcast, Jared Freid dives into pop culture with his signature humor and insight! It's Pop Culture Thursday, and Jared’s got all the juicy stories straight from Page Six and Yahoo Entertainment. From Keri Russell’s clickbait-worthy comments about rarely wanting to work, to Jason Segel leaving Hoda Kotb in tears with an emotional compliment on the Today Show, Jared breaks it all down. He even touches on the controversy surrounding a fan-edited Wicked poster that deeply upset star Cynthia Erivo.actress Bethany Joy Lenz opens up about the tragic financial and emotional toll of being involved in a small Christian cult during her time on One Tree Hill. She reveals that the cult wiped out nearly $2 million of her earnings from the series, leaving her starting over financially while dealing with the end of her marriage. Bethany's story is tied to her new memoir, Dinner for Vampires: Life on a Cult TV Show, While Also in an Actual Cult, where she details her harrowing experience and eventual escape.The conversation shifts to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who reportedly bought a new vacation home in Portugal after being evicted from Frogmore Cottage by King Charles III. Jared humorously reflects on the bizarre name "Frogmore" and discusses the couple’s move, with a hint of bias against their public persona. He then touches on Colin Gosselin's attempt to reconcile with his estranged siblings from the Jon & Kate Plus 8 family, and Andy Cohen denying claims from Real Housewives star Jennifer Aiden about her return to the show.The episode wraps up with Katie Maloney's new romance announcement, shared ironically on her ex-husband Tom Schwartz’s birthday, and a discussion about Joan Vassos, the Golden Bachelorette, removing beds from the Fantasy Suite to focus on emotional rather than physical intimacy. Jared critiques Joan’s choice, finding it overly symbolic and unnecessary, while calling out the implicit judgment in her decision.Tune in for all this and more, including a shout-out to all of you writing in! continue to write in at 👉jtrainpodcast@gmail.com or DM us at @jtrainpodcastGreenChef 👉 Support the show and get 50% off your 1 st GreenChef box, plus 50 free ClassPass credits.

It's CHIT CHAT WEDNESDAY!! 🙌 Jared Freid is joined by the always sharp and hilariously insightful Michelle Wolf this week. The two comedians dive into a range of topics, from the changing New York weather to the complexities of modern content creation and comedy in a podcast-saturated world. Jared and Michelle pull back the curtain on their frustrations with low-effort content, while also sharing their own challenges in maintaining authenticity in comedy amidst evolving trends.Michelle, fresh off launching her new podcast Thought Box, gives listeners a sneak peek into her process of embracing (and sometimes hating) the world of podcasting. Jared and Michelle banter about the absurdity of everyday life and the fine line between comedic inspiration and chaos, while poking fun at their own creative processes. They share candid moments about their evolving careers, the importance of refining jokes, and the pressure to stay true to their craft in a world where everyone seems to have a podcast.A major theme in this episode is the generational shift in technology and communication. Both Jared and Michelle reflect on being part of the last generation to grow up without constant connectivity, diving into the humorous challenges this creates with their parents. Jared’s story about his mom’s “loving bullying”—turning simple questions about doctor visits into guilt-inducing traps—is both relatable and hilarious. Michelle adds her own insights on how parents, with their seemingly innate guilt-tripping abilities, can twist even well-meaning compliments into self-inflicted emotional spirals. Jared goes so far as to label his mom a "guilt kung fu master," turning everyday conversations into mini guilt-marathons.As the conversation turns to parenthood, Michelle reflects on the unexpected compromises that come with raising kids. She shares how her eco-friendly ideals often take a backseat to the practicality of disposable paper plates and spontaneous zoo trips, providing a funny yet real glimpse into the balance between convenience and morality. Michelle hilariously explains her newfound appreciation for strollers—“the best rolling pockets”—as she navigates the chaos of parenthood and everyday life.Throughout the episode, Michelle talks about how these personal experiences with family, guilt, and the mundane aspects of life fuel her comedy. they dive deep into the endless cycle of guilt, parental struggles, and the world of comedy. Jared talks about how his mom is the best at guilt tripping him. How his mom is some sort of “guilt kung fu masters,” able to turn any well-meaning compliment into a situation where you’re suddenly tapping out from a self-inflicted punch! 😂The episode wraps up with Jared and Michelle discussing the ever-evolving comedy scene, sharing their frustrations, joys, and the occasional absurdity of staying relevant in a world dominated by content creators. With sharp observations, witty banter, and laugh-out-loud moments, this episode offers a deep dive into the intersection of comedy, guilt, parenthood, and personal convenience—all delivered with the signature humor of two comedic heavyweights.Tune in for all this and more, including a shout-out to all of you writing in! continue to write in at 👉jtrainpodcast@gmail.com or DM us at @jtrainpodcastGreenChef 👉 Support the show and get 50% off your 1 st GreenChef box, plus 50 free ClassPass credits.

It's Ticked Off Tuesday!! Jared is here to listen to your grievances..no matter how small! This cathartic process as it's not just venting but a form of mental health care, offering validation and support. The best way to be part of the podcast is by joining his Patreon for exclusive content, like bonus episodes and priority for submissions!!🙌 Jared kicks off the episode by talking about his recent experience dining at Uchiko, a high-end Japanese restaurant in Austin. He recounts how the bartender curated a tasting menu for him, which unexpectedly left him with a hefty bill of over $300, triggering his personal ticked-off moment.Jared begins by responding to a fan’s email about someone sharing overly cautious warnings about foot fetishes on social media, making it a public issue. Jared questions why such paranoia exists, especially for someone with under 2,000 followers, and suggests that the joke isn’t quite landing. He explores the absurdity of thinking feet are so desirable that they need to be hidden from potential fetishists and sarcastically comments on how the internet might not be for everyone if everyday things like feet create so much fear. He continues to riff on the concept, saying maybe we should just let foot fetishists live their quiet lives without ruining everyone else's day.The pod shifts to another fan email about sandwich preferences, specifically the annoyance with rounded loaves of bread from the grocery store. Jared sympathizes with the listener, agreeing that a rectangular loaf would make sandwich-making more consistent and easier. He also digs into his own frustrations about sandwiches, such as uneven distribution of ingredients. From foot fetishes to bread complaints, Jared keeps the humor flowing, engaging with listeners' quirky gripes!!Tune in for all this and more, including a shout-out to all of you writing in! continue to write in at 👉jtrainpodcast@gmail.com or DM us at @jtrainpodcastGreenChef 👉 Support the show and get 50% off your 1 st GreenChef box, plus 50 free ClassPass credits.

IT'S MAILBAG MONDAY! In this week’s Mailbag Monday episode of the JTrain Podcast, Jared Freid takes on 2 listener dilemmas, diving into the tricky situation of whether or not to tell a close friend their new boyfriend is bad news.👎 He discusses the challenges of navigating friendships when romantic relationships are involved and gives his signature no-nonsense advice.Jared also reflects on the evolving podcast landscape, sharing his thoughts on the pressure to feature big-name guests versus his preference for creating authentic, relatable content for his dedicated listeners. Throughout the episode, he touches on hilarious and relatable topics, such as the awkwardness of seeing your ex with someone new—whether they’ve upgraded or downgraded—The discussion starts with a listener sharing her feelings about an ex-boyfriend she had dated for two and a half years in their late 30s. She explains how she ended the relationship because he couldn’t commit, which felt like being forced to break up with herself. Even though she's over him, she admits to checking his Facebook occasionally, and a friend recently got upset on her behalf after seeing a picture of him with a new girlfriend. Her initial reaction was to feel an ego boost, thinking the new girlfriend was a downgrade.Jared acknowledges that it's common to feel validated when an ex "downgrades" but challenges this mindset as unhealthy. He encourages a shift in perspective, reminding the listener that the relationship ended because they weren’t a good match, and it’s pointless to compare. The new relationship could be fulfilling for reasons beyond appearances, and it’s impossible to know what dynamic works for the new couple. Using a “buttoned-up shirt” analogy, Jared suggests that unresolved issues can weigh down a relationship, and the ex might have moved on to start fresh. He adds that fixating on whether an ex has "upgraded" or "downgraded" isn’t productive and could mean the listener hasn’t fully moved on. Jared emphasizes that true healing comes from focusing on personal growth rather than seeking validation through comparisons.Tune in for all this and more, including a shout-out to all of you writing in! continue to write in at 👉jtrainpodcast@gmail.com or DM us at @jtrainpodcastGreenChef 👉 Support the show and get 50% off your 1 st GreenChef box, plus 50 free ClassPass credits.

In this Pop 🍾 Culture Thursday!! Jared kicks off with rumors surrounding Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s possible engagement💍, following some slip-ups on the Monday Night Football broadcast. As he navigates through various sources, including Yahoo and Page Six, Jared discusses the ever-evolving speculation about Swift and Kelce's relationship and the frenzy it causes in the media.Jared goes on to talk about the recent revelations about Jennifer Lopez’s single life after her split from Ben Affleck, with J.Lo candidly opening up about her feelings post-divorce. Jared compares media reactions and adding his own takes on how rumors and narratives spiral in the world of pop culture! From potential Swift-Kelce wedding bells to J.Lo’s reflective stance on independence, Jared’s take on these celebrity topics is both light-hearted and engaging, perfect for a Thursday episode full of page-turning headlines.He continues to talk about whats going on reacting to Richard Gere and his wife’s steamy red carpet PDA, questioning the media's portrayal of their age gap. In other news, Billie Eilish vows to stop talking about her private life and sexuality, but Jared debates how realistic that promise is in today’s world of celebrity culture💋 Plus, reality TV star Sheena Shay dishes out divorce advice to her Vanderpump Rules co-stars, leaving Jared unimpressed with her generic parenting tips.Jared continues discussing various pop culture topics, diving into a critique of reality TV personalities like Sheena Shay. He mentions how these celebrities often don’t say anything profound, instead offering common advice, like "put your child first," which Jared finds bland. The conversation transitions into an analysis of podcast trends, with Jared expressing frustration over how certain podcasts gain popularity, despite what he sees as weak content. Jared specifically names Hayley Welch's podcast, saying it’s doing well but feels like a case of “good guest, bad show.” He criticizes the notion that these podcasts promise “real conversations” when, in his view, no groundbreaking discussions happen. The example given is Hayley Welch's rise to podcasting success, starting from a viral catchphrase to now having a top-ranking podcast and even a costume inspired by her catchphrase being sold at Spirit Halloween. Jared praises Welch’s business success with her jumpsuit costume line, noting that this venture makes sense given her viral fame. He finds the costume to be fitting for certain demographics, like younger people looking for easy and recognizable Halloween attire. The conversation then shifts briefly to Britney Mahomes, where Jared jokes about how her outfit for a Chiefs game resembled Britney Spears’ iconic red leather look. There’s some discussion about public perception of Mahomes, though Jared doesn’t seem to share the disdain others might have for her.Lastly, Jared touches on a sadder topic—the brewing estate battle following Richard Simmons’ death. His brother, Lenny Simmons, and longtime housekeeper, Teresa Reveles, are in a legal dispute over the estate. Reveles claims that she was unfairly removed as co-trustee, and that Lenny and his wife pressured her into signing paperwork shortly after Richard’s passing. Jared reflects on how money can complicate relationships, and how these disputes can tarnish the legacies of beloved public figures like Richard Simmons.Tune in for all this and more, including a shout-out to all of you writing in!

Jared Freid is joined by Natasha Parker, a former Bachelor* and Bachelor in Paradise contestant who now hosts Gems with Natasha. They kick things off by promoting Natasha’s podcast and Jared’s recent guest appearance. The relaxed Sunday morning vibe sets the tone as Natasha shares her weekend, including family time and brunch plans.The conversation turns to Natasha’s favorite NYC spots like The Ned and Rocco’s Tavern.

They banter about the differences between high-end venues and sports bars, with Natasha highlighting Rocco’s vegan nachos, which she loves as a vegetarian.They also dive into dating, with Natasha revealing her sister is newly single. They discuss how women make better wing-women than men and the dynamics of going out as single sisters.

They reflect on how men showing interest by buying a drink can create opportunities, though some have sneaky motives, like swooping in after a woman buys her own.As the episode continues, they chat about the importance of enjoying the moment without a strict plan to meet men, emphasizing that the venue’s vibe and having fun are more important than finding romance. They also explore how energy and mindset play key roles in attraction, agreeing that being content in your surroundings naturally draws people in.

It's Chit Chat Wednesday and we have dating expert, Logan Ury! Jared and Logan dive into the complexities of dating, discussing how it can often feel situation-dependent. They explore how people’s romantic behaviors can shift based on specific interactions, with Jared reflecting on how two seemingly similar dates can result in very different outcomes. Logan suggests that sometimes we get too caught up in making assumptions, noting that people often make decisions based on incomplete information, such as whether to kiss on the first date.Jared shares his frustration with how dating can feel like a "silly dance" of coy behavior, contrasting this with the more open and sex-forward experience he’s had on some dates. He admits feeling embarrassment when misreading situations despite being a dating expert, which leads to self-reflection. Logan offers a broader perspective, explaining that more transparency in dating would help, likening it to a process of matchmaking where a third party provides critical information.They also discuss how dating apps give some insight, but there’s still a lack of full clarity, often leading to confusion and making people disposable. Logan encourages people to go beyond the surface, suggesting that spending more time with someone might reveal the deeper "iceberg" of their personality. Jared agrees but acknowledges the discomfort of confronting his assumptions.The episode also includes a conversation about Jared's experiences post-Netflix fame, where he touches on the awkward dynamics of receiving invitations for drinks from fans in different cities. While Jared enjoys socializing after shows, he admits to a struggle between temptation and wanting a meaningful connection, all while dealing with the pressure of public expectations. They discuss how dating apps and first-date norms can feel frustrating or limiting, especially when personal preferences and sexual boundaries come into play. Jared reflects on two recent dates: one that felt more sex-forward and liberating, and another where the traditional "no kiss on the first date" boundary left him feeling out of sync with his date. Logan compares this to the structure of Orthodox matchmaking, where clear communication and third-party guidance help navigate such situations, and suggests that in dating, assumptions often obscure understanding. They both emphasize that more dates and open conversations are needed, rather than relying solely on information upfront. Jared humorously touches on his life post-Netflix fame, grappling with dating expectations while on tour, where fans reach out but often misread his willingness to engage romantically. The episode also includes lighthearted moments about feeling awkward in dating !

It's Ticked Off Tuesday! 😅😡Jared reads listener complaints and gives them the validation they deserve!!🙌This week, Jared kicks off with stories from his trip to Boca Raton, where visiting his parents in their retirement community leads to classic “social battery” struggles. Jared reflects on the endless social interactions at his parents’ gym, their community’s obsession with golf carts, and the hilariously overwhelming energy of retirees eager for conversation. He dives into a personal saga about receiving four pairs of shoes from a well-meaning acquaintance and the awkwardness of wondering if he’s done enough to show his appreciation. This segues into Jared's observations about his family dynamics and life at his parents' house. He humorously describes their home, specifically the pool house where he stays, which gives him some separation and peace. He notes how his mother tends to meddle, whether by interrupting his social encounters or rearranging his belongings in ways that drive him crazy. This leads to a frustrating moment where Jared can't find his clothes and wallet because his mother had moved them around, causing him to question his sanity. Jared talks about how small annoyances with family can spiral into exaggerated, existential frustrations. His struggle to reconcile his organized chaos with his mother’s more involved behavior leads to a mix of playful frustration, guilt, and an ongoing quest for personal space. 😅The listener emails kick off with a luxury dilemma: one mom feels guilty relaxing while her nanny takes care of her baby, wondering if the nanny is secretly judging her for enjoying free time. Jared dives into the modern pressure social media creates, making people feel guilty for using help or taking time for themselves. He reassures the listener that everyone, including the nanny, benefits from this arrangement. 🍼Another listener vents about a canceled Dane Cook show, expressing frustration at how the comedian didn’t even acknowledge the cancellation on social media. Jared shares the stress from the performer’s side of things, but agrees that not offering an explanation is frustrating, especially when fans have planned their nights around the show.Other complaints include being "trapped" by friends making plans months in advance, coworkers lacking self-awareness, and moms who ask for your opinion but do what they want anyway. Jared dives each scenario, blending humor with practical advice, making it clear he’s on the side of his listeners’ frustrations😂 Jared has shows coming up in Austin, where he’s preparing for his special!!

It's Monday AKA Mailbag Monday 🙌 📩Jared is taking you behind the scenes of the show’s new daily format. Jared explains how he's adjusting his recording schedule to keep pop culture discussions fresh and relevant while also teasing upcoming segments like Ticked Off Tuesday and Chitchat Wednesday with dating expert Logan Ury!Fresh off a trip from Boca, Jared opens up about his parents' pushy suggestions that he take his dad’s Ozempic—a weight-loss drug—which leads to a deeper reflection on food, body image, and the pressures of success. He candidly shares how trips back home to Florida make him confront personal insecurities about his career, life trajectory, and the tricky dynamics of family expectations. We love the family but sometimes it can be a lot!He hilariously describes his mom's intense weather concerns and her insistence that his flight would get delayed due to storms. Despite her worries, Jared’s flight went smoothly—until he had an unexpected Uber ride experience. His Uber driver had to urgently stop for a bathroom break, turning a simple ride into a humorous adventure. Jared’s empathy for the driver leads to some great comic moments, from discussing bathroom strategies in NYC to the shared relief they both experience after the driver returns.Finally, Jared answers listener emails in the Mailbag Monday segment. The first listener, a 34-year-old who has been single for a while, discusses the pros and cons of being alone. Jared reflects on the balance between enjoying alone time and the potential downsides of solitude, offering his humorous yet insightful perspective. This episode is packed with relatable moments, whether it's the stresses of managing life’s expectations, the hilarity of real-life travel experiences, or the deeper reflection on singlehood and personal happiness. Jared responds to a listener wondering if it's time to start traveling solo despite some fear. Jared shares his own experience with solo travel, reflecting on a trip he took to the South of France. He admits that the trip was a bit lonely due to time zone differences and the fact that he was in a vacation town where most people were there with their partners or friends. Jared emphasizes that solo travel can be rewarding, but suggests starting with cities where the language barrier is minimal and where there's more social activity, like New Orleans or Copenhagen. He also recommends shorter trips of around five days to avoid extended periods of loneliness. He even mentions that certain hotels, like the Four Seasons in New Orleans, can provide a more comfortable solo travel experience if budget allows. Ultimately, Jared advises the listener to plan their trips differently depending on whether they’re traveling alone or with someone. He highlights that solo trips can be enriching, but to be mindful of destination and trip length to ensure a fulfilling experience.Lastly, Jared tackles a listener's dilemma involving a longtime coworker and friend who seems to struggle in dating due to bad breath. While the listener isn't sure how to approach the subject, Jared empathizes with the awkwardness of the situation. He suggests that bringing up the issue gently, perhaps in a moment when the friend is confiding in them about dating frustrations, might be the best approach.Jared also acknowledges that bad breath can kill affection and attraction, but encourages the listener to remember that if a person is in a meaningful relationship, issues like bad breath can often be addressed without ending things. Jared shares his thoughts on how people in the early stages of dating might use superficial reasons, like bad breath, as a way to back out of something deeper. He closes with some humorous but practical advice on how to approach the delicate subject without damaging the friendship.Tune in for all this and more, including a shout-out to all of you writing in! continue to write in at 👉jtrainpodcast@gmail.com or DM us at @jtrainpodcastSUPPORT THE SHOW, SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!🙌indochino 👉  Support the show and use code JTRAIN to get 10% off any Indochino purchase of $399 or more at https://www.indochino.comlumen 👉 Support the show and get 15% off your Lumen.

It's Monday AKA Mailbag Monday 🙌 📩Jared starts off venting about his frustrating experience trying to sign up for a Barry's Bootcamp class. What started as a simple decision to work out quickly spirals into a whole thing trying to figure out their apps and malfunctioning passwords. You're trying to commit to fitness, only to be bogged down by small inconveniences that leave him questioning the whole endeavor. He also dives into the psychological toll of attending fitness classes where insecurity creeps in. Is this Ticked Off Tuesday?😅From there, Jared goes into sharing stories from his recent trip to Chicago, including an awkward fan interaction at a baseball game that left him feeling bloated and off his game. Jared then offers advice to a listener whose boyfriend, a freelance voice actor and podcaster, wants to lease a separate studio apartment for work. Jared sympathizes with the listener’s concerns about this being a potential red flag, exploring how the timing and reasoning for this new space might feel suspicious. He acknowledges the delicate balance between trusting a partner and addressing valid unease. Jared advises the listener to focus on the timing of the request and how it made them feel, rather than jumping to conclusions about trust or cheating. He highlights the importance of addressing how the sudden change affects the relationship dynamic and emphasizes that it's reasonable to feel off-put by such a last-minute decision. Jared also touches on personal experiences, sharing how he views relationship progression, and encourages open communication to better understand each other’s intentions.He then answers a guy concerned about how to handle the awkwardness around splitting the bill on dates. Jared gives his own approach to paying and how he interprets the other person's insistence on splitting.

It's Monday AKA Mailbag Monday 🙌 📩 In this episode of the JTrain podcast, Jared dives deep into a listener's dilemma about dealing with their best friend's misbehaving kids during a vacation. Jared offers a nuanced approach, advising the listener to separate opinions from facts, particularly when addressing behaviors like the "slam the door" game. He humorously reflects on how he might navigate such a situation as an outsider without kids, focusing on being inquisitive rather than accusatory. Jared emphasizes understanding the dynamics of different parenting styles and how, despite differing approaches, friendship remains strong as long as communication is open.He also discusses how people often turn to clinical explanations as a defense mechanism when confronted about their kids' behavior. Jared shares how he'd handle the situation by asking questions like, "Do you play slam the door at home?" and suggests addressing the issue with humor and curiosity rather than judgment. This episode offers a mix of practical advice and laughs, reminding listeners that even in the trickiest situations, there's always a way to maintain the friendship.Plus, Jared touches on the concept of "emotional masturbation," where people get ahead of themselves in relationships, trying to impress or avoid rejection by planning elaborate events.

It's Ticked Off Tuesday with your host Jared Freid! A special segment of the podcast where Jared encourages listeners to send in their grievances. From minor annoyances to major life issues, Jared provides a space for people to feel heard and validated. It's a cathartic experience for both Jared and his audience, allowing them to laugh through their frustrations! In this episode, Jared addresses a listener's complaint about their gym experience. The listener shares their frustration with how their gym handles overcrowding and the lack of available equipment, which disrupts their workout routine. Jared discusses how important it is for gyms to manage their spaces effectively, ensuring that members get the value they expect. He highlights how these issues can make going to the gym feel more stressful than beneficial and suggests that clear communication and proper management could improve the experience for everyone.We get another email where Jared responds to a listener's frustration over a disappointing chicken Caesar salad order. The listener received a salad with an overwhelming amount of lettuce, a tiny portion of chicken, and no room to mix the ingredients properly. Jared sympathizes with the complaint, pointing out how important it is for restaurants to balance portions and presentation, especially when charging premium prices. He critiques the lack of care in assembling the salad, emphasizing that dining out should be a satisfying experience rather than one that leaves you feeling shortchanged.Jared discusses the importance of knowing exactly what you're getting when offered something for free, emphasizing that clarity and full explanations make the experience better. He compares this to frustrating experiences in grocery stores where sale items don't ring up correctly, leading to awkward interactions with store employees and other customers. This leads into a larger conversation about the emotional aspects of sales and how much people value the feeling of getting a good deal. Jared shares a listener's story about their boyfriend's experience shopping for sale items while on a business trip, only to find out the sale signs were outdated due to staff shortages. Jared ties this all together with a reflection on how frustrating it is when businesses take away the good feeling you get from a sale and how important it is to feel like you're getting something that others aren't. He wraps up the episode with a Tick Off Tuesday about a disappointing chicken Caesar salad that didn't live up to expectations.Tell us your favorite part about todays episode and remember SUBSCRIBE, SHARE, COMMENT AND EMAIL US !! 👉👉jtrainpodcast@gmail.comSUPPORT THE SHOW, SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!🙌DraftKings 👉 New DraftKings customers get $250 in bonus bets and one month of NFL+ Premium for free when you bet just 5 bucks.
