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...

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 adul...

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 cha...

Jared kicks off the New Year by breaking down celebrity headlines of the week! From Jeff Bezos allegedly commissioning a statue of Lauren Sanchez to Brooks Nader turning a belt into a top, Jared unpacks the absurdity of wealth, beauty standards, and attention economics.

A smart, funny look at celebrity PR strategies, critical thinking, and why pop culture is still so entertaining!

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 th...

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...

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” af...

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...

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 Ai...

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 expl...

It's He reflects on the heartbreaking story involving Rob Reiner and the uncomfortable pressure placed on celebrities to publicly respond to loss. The episode then lightens up with pop culture moments featuring Rihanna, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, plus a red carpet debate about Timothée Chalamet matching outfits with his mom. Do you think they should have matched? 😅

Jared is joined by comedian and longtime friend Greg Stone for a classic Chit Chat Wednesday full of derailments, dad life, and perfectly unhinged takes. They spiral from a broken sponsor e-bike into NDAs, Hollywood rumors, and why Greg absolutely cannot be trusted with secrets. The conversation jumps to toys, parenting, Christmas gifts, and Greg’s very intense opinions on action figures, trains, and ruining his own kids’ expectations. Then they play a rapid-fire 2025 Rorschach test, breaking down viral moments like the Coldplay kiss cam, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, Katy Perry in space, and the mysterious 6-7 trend. It’s...

Jared is fired up in NYC for Ticked Off Tuesday, venting about TikTok warriors telling him to “stay out of politics” after an RFK Jr pull-up rant, uninvited life-coach replies to a simple “I’ll be 60 when my kids graduate” thread, health scolds comparing a Pura Vida tuna sandwich to two Big Macs, and strangers who jinx an empty middle seat before the plane door even closes. Then he dives into listener complaints: a December birthday dictator who holds friendships hostage over a group dinner, baby gifts that are somehow dry-clean only, Reddit poisoning how people hear their favorite podcasts...

Jared is back in NYC for Mailbag Monday, juggling post-road exhaustion and three brand-new listener dilemmas. He breaks down a military marriage caught in flirty-text limbo, tells one listener why stressing over a guy who hasn’t texted in a week is a confidence issue (not a waiting game), and helps a longtime friend group protect their sacred monthly girls’ dinner from an over-eager spouse. Plus the usual riffs, apologies he doesn’t need to make, and a little YouTube and Patreon love!

Jared is broadcasting from the porch of his new Delray Beach apartment for Pop Culture Thursday, thanks to a WiFi disaster he’ll fully unravel on Coffee with JTrain. 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 sits down with comedian, friend, and world-class sh*t talker Jay Jurden, fresh off his new Hulu special “Yes Ma’am.” They get into what a special should really be in 2024, why joke-dense hours matter, and how comics are secretly puzzle nerds fitting together bits from tweets, clips, and crowd moments.

Ticked Off Tuesday from Delray Beach: Jared opens the vent line and tag-teams listener gripes with his own, from meddling “helpful” meals to tipping tech that’s stuck in the Stone Age. One listener’s story about a mom who got jealous of a client’s kind gesture spirals into Jared’s takedown of unwanted casseroles, reheated fish, and “help” that’s really control in disguise. He riffs on turkey bacon treachery, sidewalk slo-mos, light-switch mazes, Amex “offers,” and the weird pressure to prove friendship with likes. Plus, tour updates and plenty of laugh-out-loud commiseration without turning your brain into homework.

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.

Jared pushes on slogans, civility, and the comedy-politics attention trap, while Daniel defends debating wi...

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.

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 (Jare...

Mailbag Monday is back and Jared tackles three big listener dilemmas: a boyfriend who calls Ozempic “the lazy way out” and what real support should look like, whether you should bother driving an hour to return an ex’s clothes or set a pickup window and move on, and the difference between a workplace dopamine crush and a stale five-year relationship that needs an honest timeline.

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.

Listener complaints follow, including a massage that skipped the back entirely, Target mobile orders with no straws, kids splashing in the adults...

 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 w...

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.

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.

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 da...

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.

Add in Dua Lipa birthday buzz, a Vanity Fair shake-up, and one eyebrow-raising Ke...

It's time for another Ticked Off Tuesday, and the complaints are as strong as ever!

This Ticked Off Tuesday features four fresh complaints that prove the little things can drive us nuts! But we start off with Jared's food complaint! 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. There’s frustration over constant interruptions during podcast me-time, and a red-eye flight disaster caused by a tray table that cannot handle its own airline cup. Jared gives each gripe the spotlight it deserves!

...

It’s a fresh Mailbag Monday, and Jared is tackling two all-too-relatable dilemmas.
