Jared is here from Bloomington, Indiana, ready to co-sign your pettiest complaints and maybe even make them worse (in a good way). This week, he dives into the viral CEO cheating scandal at a Coldplay concert, because nothing screams New England drama like getting caught on the kiss cam. Jared rants about self-appointed TikTok “reporters” and the internet's obsession with schadenfreude, while also sharing why this whole saga just makes him sad. Listener gripes include the absurdity of 45-minute train delays that never actually happen, doctors hogging all the close parking spots while nine-month-pregnant women waddle across the lot, and the nerve of people demanding free handmade crafts from a hobbyist. Plus, Jared settles a family debate about whether DMing a comedian is “weird” or just enthusiastic fandom.

It's Ticked Off Tuesday on and Jared is broadcasting from the “presidential suite” of a Pittsburgh boutique hotel, complete with two shower heads that can't even hit him at the same time. He kicks off the episode with his complaint, then dives into listener gripes: from the Delta One Lounge failing to serve almond milk (the Beyoncé of alt-milks), to flavorless adult medicine that feels like swishing around “diarrhea water.” There's also a burrito shrinking crisis sweeping the nation and a business trip horror story featuring a co-worker's husband who keeps picking up tabs, then demanding repayment like it's a debt. Jared validates, escalates, and hilariously unpacks every minor injustice. If you've ever felt personally offended by a small portion size or a passive-aggressive Venmo request, this one's for you.

It's Mailbag Monday, and Jared is answering two juicy listener emails with the honesty only a stranger can give. First up: a woman stuck in a “great on paper” relationship with a guy who's already calling dibs in their mutual friend group, even though she's just not feeling it. Jared breaks down how to end things gracefully and preserve your social standing. Then: a babysitter writes in after her tatted, jacked employer (read: hot single dad) asks her out for dinner and a swim, without the kid. Jared digs into the boundary-blurring mess, offers tactical advice, and issues a PSA about hot dads who “just need adult conversation.” Tune in! Also, Jared is on the road
