I hate to say it, but I was a subscribing member since 2020 and have stopped listening because I don’t find Jordana and Jared relatable at all anymore—-they’ve moved on with their lives and we should have hosts who are better suited to discuss dating topics. There is a lifespan to everything.

United States12 days ago - Jared, why so angry?
Love the pod. Longtime Benefits + JTrain Patreon subscriber. Thrilled to hear Jared sounding genuinely happy lately.
One recurring issue, though: when guests come on that Jared doesn’t already know well — especially fellow podcasters — the energy shifts and he gets oddly combative. Example: I also think Andy Levine being secretive about his career is kind of bizarre. But listening to Jared go IN on him while Andy awkwardly laughs it off was uncomfortable.
I didn’t leave thinking, “Wow, screw A... more
Apple Podcasts5sobarufifronsUnited States13 days ago - Love these guys
Ok it seems obvious to me that the U Up staff is writing fake emails to match the background of the guest. This was particularly obvious during Jordana’s leave and also during the “married to a gay man” episode. Feels very insincere. Please stop. Or take it a step further and have chat gpt write the fake emails.
