J&J are back with a Sunday Special and, this week, they’re joined by comedian Heather McMahan. Heather and Jared have only known each other digitally until this point, so the trio kick off with a discussion about online energy vs energy IRL. Next, they dive into a problem commonly hidden in the fine print of some relationships: how do you address a shift in your friendship when one of you is no longer single? Our emailer has happily been in a relationship for over a year, but as it continues to progress, she’s noticed one of her friendships regressing. Jordana and Heather are both married, so they’re able to delve into how their friendships transitioned over the course of their relationships, while Jared is able to give the perspective of the single friend. Plus, as a bonus, you can catch J&J on Heather’s podcast, “Absolutely Not.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

As Mental Health Awareness Month comes to an end, this week’s emails focus on how you view yourself playing a role in your relationships. First, Jared and Jordana hear from a listener who’s a few months into being single again. She started off feeling single and free, but day by day, loneliness has crept in and made her feel like she’s not meant to be single even though she’s not ready for a relationship. Next, our Awkward Sexual Encounter is a tale that will be stuck in our minds for eternity. Our final email comes from a woman concerned about her partner’s body image issues taking a toll on his mental health and their relationship. J&J close with a round of Faux Pas or Nah about peeing in public, ChatGPT texts and voice memos in the DMs. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It’s time for another Sunday Special, and this week, Jared and Jordana hear from an emailer confused about where she stands with a guy she’s dating. He went out with coworkers and invited her to join, but because she’s in the middle of a move and has a busy week coming up, she chose to stay home. First, he’s understanding, and suddenly, he’s calling it all off. So, what just happened? Do people in the early stages toward a relationship have to accept every invitation, or is the issue with his anxious approach? J&J add an additional perspective on their situation, and where to go from here. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week, Jared and Jordana are recording from home and they kick off with the joys and goals of being moderately effective, from daily living to dating. Then, they dive into hurdles in your dating life and those around you. Our first emailer noticed her dating life tends to die around the 3rd or 4th date, and Jared is able to share hesitations he’s had with getting into somewhat serious territory. The Awkward Sex Encounter is a treat for pet owners. Then, our second emailer hates her best friend’s boyfriend, but given that it’s not her relationship, does she have the right to do anything about it? J&J end with a game of Red Flag or Deal Breaker about social media etiquette, keeping gifts from an ex and sentimental details your first date might be keeping from you.

J&J are back with a Sunday Special. This week, our email is about a friendship that spans nearly a decade, beginning at law school and still going strong between two busy lawyers in different towns. Our emailer is a queer woman whose interest in her friend has intensified recently, but is lust worth risking her friendship? Her friend is a straight man with a history of dating women that don’t look like her, so has he ever even considered the thought? Jared and Jordana help guide her through the next steps to breaking down the platonic barrier without throwing out her friendship. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
