  • I LOVE THIS PODCAST

    I’ve been binging every episode for the last few months. Jerry is precious and I am obsessed with his daughter Morgan and her husband Justin who usually co-host the episodes. You can find wholesome, silly & positive vibes always here! :) Thank you for sharing your energy and being such a light in my day! I will run out of episodes and have to join Patreon soon…:) (big 2 hot takes lover too) <3

  • Morgan does NOT ruin the episodes!

    I love the podcast- I love Jerry, as well as Morgan and Justin (and the occasional Lauren). I am seeing several reviews going after Morgan, saying she takes over, she has a bad take, etc. I just want to say that I generally agree with Morgan, and I am OK with Jerry and Morgan (and sometimes Justin) disagreeing on their advice! Generational differences can be expected, and even welcomed.

  • Morgan always wants to tattle-Standing Up episode

    Why does Morgan always want to tell on people lol. If you asked a therapist if you should tell a girl something that happened 2 years ago, when you weren’t even friends. Your therapist would tell you to mind your business lol. She always goes to worst case scenario then says she would ask the bf questions to decide if she would tattle.
