It’s very difficult speaking up about antisemitism. I thought you approached the listener very thoughtfully. It’s rare to feel seen as a Jewish American these days. I appreciate you. I’m sure it won’t be well received by the masses but *I* am so grateful you spoke to it.
Happy for Jared and his new relationship — he does sound lighter. At the same time, he still takes everything as a personal attack. Assuming a friend muted your IG stories versus engaging with other profiles more frequently, putting them ahead of yours? What a wildly unimportant possibility to waste mental energy on.
Speaking from someone very protective of the Jewish demographic, the recent episode just showed how little Jared is in touch with other cultures. My cousin dated someone from another religion / culture and felt that they were loud and overstimulating for her. And our family is louddddd. It’s not always antisemitic 🤷🏻♀️
Jared … I think you’re trying to say you end things “on sight” meaning immediately. Please stop it’s making me crazy. And for the love of god - stop interrupting. Saying sorry to interrupt but continuing to do it does not make it any better. I get it, I have ADHD too but you have to let people finish speaking PLEASE.
…take a shot every time Jared asks a question, then steamrolls the convo and doesn’t let the other person actually answer it.
Longtime listener, frequent reviewer, and despite my grievances I do enjoy this show and will keep listening. The magic is the combination of Jared and Jordana. Which is why the mat leave cameos have been so tricky. There were wins and there were losses, there were abandoned eps that some of us just couldn’t get through. Jordana, congrats and also can’t wait to have you ... more
