Happy (almost) New Year from sunny Boca Raton! 🌴🎉 Jared Freid is kicking off 2025 with a brand-new Mailbag Monday, answering two incredible listener dilemmas that embody everything the JTrain Podcast is all about—honest advice, tough love, and plenty of laughs. First, we meet a listener who booked a 3 week European vacation with her boyfriend of just 4 months. But now she’s having serious second thoughts about their long-term compatibility. With the trip fully paid for by him, she’s torn about whether to go, how to handle the breakup if it happens, and what trip lengths make sense for new relationships. Jared dives deep, offering insights on travel, timing, and when it’s time to move on versus sticking it out. Next, it’s a group chat disaster for the ages! A voice memo intended for a bestie lands in the “birthday weekend cabin trip” group chat instead, spilling the tea on the birthday girl’s friends and the weekend plans. The fallout? The group chat implodes, the trip is canceled, and now the listener is left wondering how to repair her best friend’s birthday and their relationship. Jared breaks down the best strategies to rebuild trust, whether to go heartfelt or funny with the apology, and why group chat etiquette should never involve long voice memos. Along the way, Jared shares updates about his upcoming comedy tour (hello, Portland, Phoenix, and Australia!), what makes the JTrain Podcast a no-days-off operation, and why his perspective on dating and friendships remains unmatched!! This episode is packed with thoughtful advice, hilarious commentary, and Jared’s signature style of tackling tough topics with care. Whether you’re navigating relationship doubts, friendship drama, or just need a laugh, this episode has something for everyone.

It's Pop Culture Thursday, where Jared dives into the juiciest stories from Page Six and beyond, offering his hilarious takes and sharp observations! Jared kicks things off by reacting to an unexpected holiday gem: the Kelce brothers' festive review of Love Actually. Can these NFL stars appreciate rom-coms, or are they sticking to their playbooks? Then, Jared unpacks one of the most talked-about celebrity news stories of the week—Blake Lively’s sexual harassment complaint against It Ends With Us director Justin Baldoni. From the allegations to the ensuing PR wars, Jared breaks down how Hollywood spins stories, pits reputations against each other, and why some headlines feel more like strategy than substance! The conversation doesn’t stop there. Jared breaks down the ever-evolving PR wars of celebrities like Blake Lively, whose carefully crafted image sparks debate, and Bill Belichick’s red carpet debut with his much-younger girlfriend, raising eyebrows and solidifying his "PR nightmare" reputation. Plus, a juicy Palm Beach scandal involving an heir to the Dodge fortune, racy playing cards, and an altercation at the exclusive Breakers resort serves as the perfect dessert to this week’s pop culture feast. From love stories to lawsuits, Jared serves up hot takes on how PR machines are controlling the narrative—and why we, the audience, eat it all up.  Send your stories to [email protected] with the subject line “Pop Culture Thursday,” and don’t forget to grab your tickets for Jared’s upcoming comedy shows at JaredFreid.com!
