• I Got Dumped The Day After Our Anniversary

  Lordy, Lordy look who’s 40! It’s the “Worst Day of the Year” aka Jared’s birthday. Now that he’s over the hill, Jared is embracing his “I want to speak to the manager” energy and reflecting with Jordana on the peaks and valleys from the past year. Then, we play Petty or Prudent and hear from a listener who got dumped the day after her boyfriend planned a romantic dinner for their one-year anniversary. Later, we dive into an email about a woman who tries to backpedal into dating a guy she once ended things with when he gave her the ick. There’s been one thing on our minds since October and it’s… “Is that my wife?” We got all your DMs and comments about needing merch and now we have it!

• When Does A Partner’s Joke Go Too Far?

  Jared’s fresh off of a trip to Montreal, or as he calls it The Coldest Place on Earth, and comes back with hot takes about the food and one glowing restaurant recommendation. Then J&J gab about their recent trip to L.A. and the difference in hotness factor between Los Angeles and New York (Gremlin Swamp People unite!). They also reflect on a strange interaction they had with a recently divorced man at a bar.Later, we dive into emails and hear from a listener who feels that her boyfriend made a joke at her expense that went too far. On an Awkward Encounter that we’ll never forget, a listener takes a chance going to a playoff hockey game with a guy she just met. Things take a turn when the “Mayor of Detroit” picks her up in a Dukes of Hazard themed golf cart and gets plastered at the game. Then a listener taps J&J for advice on a romantic connection where the physical isn’t matching the emotional one. We end with a round Red Flag Deal Breaker about a forgotten vasectomy, a mean quote from a Rate My Professor review, and an aspiring “boy dad.” Have a dating question for Jordana and Jared?

• Can I Spend Valentine’s Day With My Situationship? (Lightning Round Special)

  Jared “Cupid” Freid and Jordana “Matchmaker” Abraham are here to answer all your Valentine’s Day questions. This year for V-Day, Jared’s off to Alpharetta, Georgia for a block of shows and Jordana’s staying in while hubby Mike cooks her up something special. J&J discuss what the perfect meal for V-Day is that still leaves room for romance (for our home cooks, Chef Jared suggests grilled chicken, penne and spaghetti squash). Then in partnership with Shake Shack, we play a special game called BOGO or NOGO where J&J evaluate situationships and decide if listeners should enjoy the Shake Shack’s Smoke Shack BOGO deal with them or save it for someone more deserving. Later, we dive into a lightning round of V-day questions like, “when is it too soon to celebrate Valentine’s Day with someone you’re dating?”, “how do I tell my partner I want to do something for V-day?” and “how do I ask the guy I’m casually seeing if we’ll be spending Valentine’s Day together?”  Get the Shake Shack BOGO for yourself by visiting Shakeshack.com and using code BEMINE or click here: shakeshack.app.link/vdaybogobetches Learn more about your ad choices.

• Should I Go No Contact With My Ex?

  Jordana’s gone full-on suburbs. She’s enrolled in a “tennis clinic” and in between perfecting her serve is trying to infiltrate the neighborhood gossip circle. She continues to debate the pros and cons of pulling the trigger on getting a dog. Later, J&J give a pep talk to a listener who recently went through a bad breakup after realizing that she and her longterm partner were not on the same page regarding kids. On Awkward Encounter, things get messy after a dog steals a listener’s menstrual cup. And this week’s Red Flag or Deal Breaker? has Jared and Jordana wondering if bad hygiene is a valid reason to dump someone. Have a dating question for Jordana and Jared?
