Jared is in Rochester, NY, taping ahead of time before heading to Nashville to work out new material at Zanies' new "Lab" room, and he's bringing the energy. This week's Mailbag Monday dives into a wedding plus-one predicament that turns into a full-blown dissection of lazy logistics, relationship signals, and the male brain's cheapskate tendencies. Jared breaks down why assuming a plus-one is never the move, how shoehorning a parent-meet into a wedding weekend backfires, and why your girlfriend might be annoyed but not complaining.Then, he reacts to a dating dilemma that puts a new twist on an old classic: should you date someone your friends don't like? He breaks down a listener's situation where the boyfriend gets along great with her family but not her friends. Plus, Jared reads a powerful message from a listener who recently got out of a two-year relationship and reflects on a recurring pattern of verbal abuse, specifically being called a "bitch" during every argument. Jared gives his honest take on when name-calling crosses the line and what it says about the health of the relationship. As always, he's here to keep it real and help you navigate the gray areas of modern dating.Support the podcast by supporting our sponsors!Caldera Lab Support the show and get 20% off your first Caldera Lab order.
