Hi, Sashir. Hi, Nicole. How are you? I'm good. How are you? Bruised. Why? I got beat up last night. No, I'm kidding.

I imagine... Oh my goodness. Imagine I didn't text you that I got beat up last night. No, I'm kidding. I imagine. Oh my goodness. Imagine I didn't text you that I got beat up and I waited till we recorded. No, I've been trying to do an outside leg hang, which is when you are upside down with your arm closest to the pole, around the pole, your hip next to the pole, and then your other leg is folded over the pole it's hard to explain yeah with words it's more of like a visual thing but my from my side like trying to smash my side into the pole to hold it i'm so bruised okay and

today i got out of bed and i was like oh i'm like an old man and my body can't do this i can't sustain this i know it's really annoying it's getting older it is i don't like it i don't want to have a body put my head in a jar put it on a robot let it do its thing yes let me be rosie the robot well she cleans i don't want to do that i want to be the robot from ex machiado ex machina whatever where she's like hot and stuff yeah those robots but weren't they like i i it's been so long since i've seen it were they fuck robots were they built to there was like some sort of romance stuff happening no there was and i feel like hot man one with the dark hair was like dancing with robots and stuff and then hot man number two with the red hair i feel like was like

oh my god i'm feeling these are their character names right hot man number one yep on the call sheet it said hot man number one hot man number two and every day there was a coin flip to figure out which one was what um i i don't know if there were sex robots per se but i think there was like sexual things happening yeah i mean that's gonna be the future where you can just buy a fuck robot and marry it this is true i think people are already marrying their ai partners like i think i saw that i was like so and so married their ai girlfriend and and then they like lost the data or something i think i read that where they were like their AI partner went offline which is funny because it's like AI will become like sentient eventually and then they will choose to divorce people isn't that

money oh my god I don't know how I'd feel if my AI that I created divorced me I would walk right into traffic no questions asked I would I got to get out of here. Even an AI doesn't want me. We got to go. Got to get off this earth. There's no hope here. No, there is a woman who married a Ferris wheel.

And I can't, I think I sent you the video. Oh yes. Yes. Yeah. I can't remember the name of the Ferris wheel, but it has a name. And she's like,

Oh, when he's extended and all his glory. And she was like, also married to a train. Which is funny because I'm like, how do you know when your train comes back? A lot of trains look alike. Wow, that's really racist, Nicole. How dare you? All trains look alike damn wow we gotta delete this this is the train the train community's gonna be so pissed they're gonna come for me

the Ferris wheel's name is Bruce when we get married to Ferris wheel yep you have to listen to how this this woman is in love and it's wild and i love it and i'm like is this my future i sure hope not i mean if i were to marry an object i would definitely marry a door i love a door or maybe just a box of tiles what things do you what thing do you like so sheer chairs yeah you would marry a chair i'm a chair yeah like wow he's so supportive they're always lifting me up i love my door he's always opening me up to different things i guess it'd be the same thing if it was a door

what do you mean like if i was married to one door i would open up to the same thing unless you move the door. I'm not going to be like a door slut and fuck a bunch of different doors. No, you're faithful. I'm a faithful door wife. Okay, let's listen to the Ferris wheel person. My name is Linda. I'm 56 years old. I live outside of Tampa, Florida with my husband of three years.

I am happily married to a carnival ride called a skydiver. His name is Bruce. Oh, skydiver. And we've known each other since 1981. Wow, that's a long relationship. 1981, wow. My first relationship was with an airplane. The last serious relationship I had before I met Bruce was with a locomotive.

That didn't work out. He kept leaving me. He's got all of that, you know, and to me, I mean, Bruce is just amazing when he stands up and and and just being spread out wow wow wow okay he's amazing wait they share intimate moments with each other i gotta hear about this i absolutely feel closer to bruce when i can spend the nights being near parts of him that I can physically touch. They usually set up a table in here and a candlelight dinner. It's really nice being in here with him. Sexuality is not the driving motivation in my marriage to Bruce. It's the feeling in my heart. I decided to do a commitment ceremony.

It's not a legal binding state marriage, but it's one in my heart. We're just an old couple. We're a sweet old couple. You know, whatever makes you happy. And she does seem happy. She does seem happy. I did love that little table with a candle,

eating pizza, staring at parts of Bruce. Linda's a champion for us all. Linda found a way to make it work. She really did. And no shade to Linda, but I really hope I don't start fucking objects. I mean, we do. What?

Like a vibrator. Oh. It's an a vibrator. Oh. It's an object. You are correct. I really thought you knew something about me that I didn't. And I was like, did I get drunk one day and fuck something in front of you? Yeah, you don't remember? You were humping that tree.

Oh, a tree. Bark up my pussy. I don't want that. Ew. Well, Sashir, speaking of bark up my pussy, should we play besting each other? Ooh. Well, look at that segue. Yes, we should.

Yeah. We have two friends on the show, Jordana Abraham and Jared Freed. They host the podcast, You Up. It's the definitive modern dating podcast presented by Betches. And Jared Freed has his own comedy special, 37 and Single, on Netflix. And Jordana has another podcast called Oversharing Baby Steps presented by BetterHelp. It's a limited series by Betches to talk about various paths to parenthood that lay ahead when starting a family doesn't come easy.

Okay, let's start with Jordana. Okay, so this is the first half of a game we like to call Besting Each Other. Besting Each Other! Where we ask you and your friend about each other and your friendship and see if the answers match and if they don't you have to dissolve your friendship and your business relationship wow yes and you have to move yeah yeah that's also an added rule so first up we have Jordana and we're gonna ask how did you and Jared meet okay um Jared and I met in 2012 when he was hosting our batches of comedy events um we met through a mutual friend

and who said he was a comedian and he wound up being the host and it's all downhill from there do you remember your first interaction i think so i feel like we were we went to a bar after our batches of comedy night it was in dc um and i remember meeting him there i don't remember exactly what we talked about though yeah do you remember your first impression sorry sashir i was gonna basically ask the same thing okay good same page i remember thinking he was funny on stage um and i think at the bar I was drunk, so I don't really remember that much about that impression. Okay. Well, he at least didn't offend you or anything. No.

It must have been a positive experience. You were just indifferent. Yes, I don't remember being offended. Indifferent, there we go. Flattering. What is your favorite memory from traveling together okay one of my favorite memories I would say

traveling together is not realizing we were on the same flight going to the going to one of our shows and I show we're at the gate and I notice him online and he's like yeah Alex sorry I'm in first class

because he was boarding with like the first class people and i was not um and then so then i get on the flight and he's like so this is embarrassing like i actually wasn't i thought i was first class but i'm i actually like was not and so i walked in he was in delta was in Delta comfort, and it was a very embarrassing moment for him. So a lot of our travel memories are about him either getting upgraded or not getting upgraded. I'm not sure if you know he has a

complex about Delta. So do we. We are Delta Diamond Divas, and we love Delta. Oh, okay. So I'm the weirdo in this scenario. I'm just like you.

You two have to travel more. Yeah, I know. Well, what's your airline? Do you have a preferred? It is Delta. It is Delta. I'm just not, you know, I have a family, so I don't try, like, you know, there's only so much traveling I can do.

This is true. Jared is like George Clooney in Up in the Air. I've never seen the movie, but I think I get the reference. Yeah, just like a businessman always on the go. Yeah. Essentially. But I guess that's all comedians. This is true.

No offense. Yeah. Travel is our work. It's part of it. Yes. But if you travel with a family, you can get those points up that's true you can that's reason enough to have kids right this is true rack up those points yeah how old are your kids i actually don't have kids but the family part was like oh i realized that mayday came off like i didn't have kids i don't actually have

kids yeah well it's but that's actually really funny because my husband came off like I didn't have kids. I don't actually have kids. Yeah. Well, that's actually really funny because my husband's always like, we don't have kids yet, so we're not a family. I'm like, okay. Aww. They're just hanging out. What a hard reject. I know. You're not my family.

Very insulting. I think you're a family. Yeah, you should be a family. This is a close bond. very insulting i think you're a family yeah you should be a family but you do it but like just how you guys assume that i had kids when i said my i have a family like i guess you don't really when you think of a family you're not like just two people yeah but okay we are thinking about family in a very archaic way and we need to change the family binary right now. A family is whoever you want it to be. A husband and a wife, a wife and a wife, a husband and a husband, some cousins who live together. That's family.

Yeah, I'm a family. What if you live alone? You live alone. Are you still a family? Yeah, I'm my family. I am my family. I have a dog. There's just the two of us.

Sashir, you have parrots that live in your backyard. Yeah, me and the parrots. That's my family. I have a dog. There's just the two of us. So sure, you have parrots that live in your backyard. Yeah, me and the parrots. That's my family. That's my plot. I like it. Reinventing the term. We're all, you know, just built into these old societal notions of family. Yeah.

I mean, there's a whole song about it. We are family. I got my sisters. I got all my sisters sisters and me sisters and me i think so yeah that's a family about sisters just sisters who live together i refuse to look up any more lyrics but a family i guess is like more than one so even if it's like you and your and your and your dog or something like that's still two right yeah yeah and then sharing her flock that's many me my mini birds um what is your favorite thing about jared um

he's very funny um he's very funny and he's got a really good take on the stuff he's got a very smart um funny quick take on stuff and he just you know as comedians i think you probably know this he just gets it yeah do you ever go to him for like advice or anything like that or like to get his take on like something going on in your life yeah all the. Yeah. Was there a moment he had like actual sound advice? That's a different question. Well, we do benefits episodes, which is basically like usually on our regular episodes, we give advice to the people who write in and then on our benefits episodes, we give advice to each other.

So every time I have a fight with my husband, he's a great person to come to because he'll give me like the man. He's like and he's been speaking to women for so long. So he will break down what is going on in my husband's head and explain it to me. Yes. In a way that

is better at communicating than my husband. So instead of fighting with my husband, I just bring the fight to him and then I fight it out with him. You're like, let me put a pin in this. I'm going to bring this to Jerry. I'll come back. Come back in a day. I mean, that's pretty helpful. And it's cheaper than therapy. Yeah, it is. Although I have that too. I need a lot of help. We all need a lot of help. That's life. Okay, so if you had to guess, what is Jared's favorite thing about you?

I think it's that I'm open-minded. Okay. Yeah. And how do you mean? Oh, and we also hate the same people. Yeah, that's important. Ooh, okay. I wanted to grab on to.

Who do you hate? Just kidding. that's a different show yeah wait so sure do we hate the same people oh i think we do i think we do but i do think your list is longer i think i probably tolerate more people than you do yes my list is very long listen you don't have to do much you know no that's the she has i have a list yeah people on my list yeah yeah i think i'm like if someone brings them up i'll be like oh yeah i guess i don't like being around that person but i don't know if i have an active list that i'm adding people to it's a new kind of oh i got a rotation um what is something that you do that drives jared crazy it's funny i feel like if there was he wouldn't tell me like there's definitely something that i do that he finds really annoying but he's he's too polite to say something i i'm i'm interested to find out

what he says behind my back yeah he'll say something they'll be yeah because to me it's like i think yeah he's not confrontational but if you had to like dip in the well of who you are okay what do you think that drives him crazy about what you want to do. Yeah. Yeah. Have you ever like clipped your toenails and he kind of like gave you a side eye? That I don't have first, that I don't, I'm not a Delta Platinum member and he has to get me into the, oh, I know. That I, whenever I come to a show, I ask him for like 30 free tickets. I'm that kind of a... For your family. I'm a moocher. Yeah. You have a large

family. For me and all my friends. Seriously, like if he hopes that he's not in any city that I'm going to be available in because he's going to basically be performing a free show. Oh, that's funny. What is something that Jared does that drives you crazy?

His commitment phobia. Oh. Is this like just in relationships or like across the board, like he has issues with committing to like things in general? I think he has a fear of um of disappointing people so i think he you know it's kind of like a his non-confrontationalness i think is maybe what all would all say and yeah it relates to the commitment but i think that the the non-confrontation is probably like the the side issue to that yeah which is like is it like you'd rather him be honest and be like i actually can't do this thing then yeah commit to it yeah he should say no more

it's like a the fear of uh of uh letting people down or people being mad at him yeah that makes sense yeah i fully identify with that and my therapist is always like, when have you said no to something where someone reacted in the negative way that you thought they were going to react? I'm always like, never. They never have. No one's ever been like, you stupid bitch. You said no. And then backhanded me. It's never happened.

Exactly. It's so scary, though. It is. Because what if it does happen um do you remember the television show survivor on cbs yes okay which one of you would do better on said show i would definitely oh very confident why i very very confident i think j Jared is higher maintenance than I am. I'm better at roughing it. He grew up rich.

I like that you put it in quotes. I'm like, was it rich or was it upper middle class? There's a difference. No, I'm not sure. Have you like camped or did anything outdoorsy um i've got i do like adventurous out i've been like skydiving i don't know if i'm like survivalist ish but i think i could i think i'd be more comfortable with being uncomfortable yeah no i feel like skydiving is a level of risk that many people aren't willing to take me included yeah and so you wouldn't go skydiving this year i was just about to ask you would you go skydiving i would not no no no i don't know what if we got

free skydiving passes i should give them to somebody i really don't know scary you don't want to fly through the sky no even flying on a plane is scary to me like i don't want to like free free ball it just out by myself you don't like a plane scary to you yeah i mean it's not like terrifying. I fly on planes all the time. But as I've gotten older, I am more wary of planes. Just like when there's turbulence, I'm like, well, this is it. And you're a Delta medallion. Yeah. Diamond medallion. I fly a lot.

Yes. But I still am like. And I'm the opposite. When we hit turbulence, I go, rock me to sleep, daddy. Same. I love it. High death drive. All right.

Lastly, here's the question. What do you hope you and Jared are both doing 20 years from now? I hope we're still podcasting together. We have a great show we love um love doing it together i think that uh that would be that would be awesome yeah yeah i've done it it's a very fun show thank you we loved having you yeah you were great cool all right now we're gonna bring jared back ask the same questions see how close you got to each other and see if you guys really are friends cool huh all right jared this is your turn to figure out if you're really fucking friends first question

one of the hardest how did you two meet we met through uh the the what what what is commonly commonly referred to as Jewish geography. Okay. It was a, I was on a family vacation and a friend, or my brother's friend from college's mom was like, I knew that I, and knew that I was doing comedy and was like,

well, my friend's son does show bookings in the dc area and then he and i got together and started putting shows together for like websites like bro bible and then he was like my sisters in the sorority at cornell with theches. Have you heard of the Betches? And I go, I have no frame of reference for this, but he was like, this is like, and he was like, it's like female bro Bible, female version of these male sites. So I said, great. And he's like, maybe we could do a show for them. So then he put together this show in dc with betches and then we met in dc at the show where i would host and we would have female comics on the lineup oh nice oh

that's how i remember it do you remember your first interaction i remember it was at a bar that had a downstairs with like games if i'm remembering correctly it was like after the show like there was like and you know i i think i met jordana amongst the other you know aileen and sammy like we all kind of met at the same time and in this like post show kind of like hang if i remember correctly i'm hoping i do yeah all right what is your favorite memory of traveling together oh that jordana loves like starbucks like she is like a starbucks like is like a Starbucks, like, frap person. Like, and like, not like, like that she's just like very,

I just like, when we go on the road, like you just know that she's like, she's very easy to travel with, very on the ball, like no, no like ego, anything, but she just loves a Starbucks. Like that's the one thing that, and, and,

and like in, in a way that she's some, for some reason embarrassed about, which is funny. Like she thinks that, like, I'm like, you know,

I'm like looking for a coffee shop where I could sit and, you know, I guess I'm the snob, you know, like, and she's like, she's just like um she loves a chain loves a chain chain spot yeah do you know what her starbucks order is

i do not i i i this is where i lose the game um no not yet we've got more questions okay okay no i don't know her starbucks order okay what's your favorite thing about jordana um she's i like um very direct very easy to like i've said this with like betches in general but it is jordana just very easy to like go back and forth with, you know, exactly. There's no gameplay. There's no not getting back to you. If you, you know, she'll be like, no, that's I mean, early on, I was sending them like tweets that I would post on Instagram, knowing that they posted tweets on Instagram, you know, looking to like add

to following. And I would say whenever I came across a tweet that and I would always say to her that the text to make it easy was for me was to say this felt betchy and she would be like, not for us or she would go, oh, this is great. And it was like, no, you know, and I've in, you you know in a working relationship i was always like sending things to sites and trying to like work out angles you know to be able to like do something for eyeballs on me and sometimes dealing with and it was a lot of time male men it was like a very much like this like this um this you know a lot of their ego was built in oh i'm the funny one you know and it was it was like a lot of men are built on like you want to

be the funny one or ownership of funny so like not all of that was gone with jordan like it just no ego no anything like that so i love that i like that a lot yeah yeah do you feel like would the the people you were sending it out to that were men would they even respond or would they be kind of like oh like like it just all it was vague always just in different interactions it was always like this like there was this other thing at play that i didn't know what it was it wasn't being said but i was like why is this a difficult interaction like and just like um you know it just was you you know when you're like you know you're dealing with something else but you don't know what it is like that's a you know like there's none of that with jordan and she's unbelievably funny like just like so quick so funny like uh really really so fast yeah yeah we love that yeah um if you had to guess what is jordana's favorite thing about you um hmm I think she likes hmm

I'd like to think that you know that I'm a nice person but I I think like maybe she would say like I think she would say that uh how hard i work yeah okay i mean a good work ethic is always nice that was so hard for you to say a good work ethic it truly doesn't come out of my mouth but it does feel very regal the way it's a sheer just a good work ethic is a desirable thing yeah right okay what is something that you do that drives Jordana crazy oh probably um see I would say like maybe interrupt but like she doesn't seem to get mad at that like I try to apologize and I try to like say my bad

I would I don't know we've never really had an argument as you know we've never really had like you know or maybe i we have and i'm an idiot and i she's pissed at you there's five things you need to apologize for right now right right maybe i don't know no it's never um she probably gets annoyed at how i um how i date a little bit like i think she's probably annoyed at like how I hold on to relationships that I've already told her like I'm not really sure about she probably looks at me as

like a vessel of like many men she's dealt with in her past dating life where she's like you're doing the things I could understand why that would be like annoying is like, oh, I'm seeing exactly the thing that I was put through by, you know, this dating scenario. And it's like I'm seeing it happen in front of me. And I'm like telling her, honestly, I'm like, yeah, I should probably do what you're saying. And then I just don't do it. Yeah. You got to go through experiences on your own. Right.

What is something that Jordana does that drives you crazy? She doesn't bother me. I don't know. I'm trying to think. She's really. No, but I'm pretty patient with most people. But there's not one thing. Probably not gaining weight.

She eats whatever she wants and doesn't have a food issue. And I'm like, all food issues. I'm like, all alcohol and food issues. And she's great at leaving a party at the right time. She's great at like leaving a party at the right time. She's great at like eating in proper amounts. Like these are all like things that I'm like, like jealous of. Yeah.

I fully identify with that. So sheer will get food and then not finish it. And I'm like, what, what, why aren't you going to eat that last bite? Can I have, it's like,

I don't even want it. Right. It just has to be finished. It just has to go somewhere. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I'm like, what if it's the best bite and you're leaving the best bite? What if there are no more bites ever again? That's the way I eat.

What if we never get to eat again? Right. What if there's no fun meal ever? We just eat cardboard forever. And this is our last one this is our last chance to have the thing yeah sometimes i really do think like that and i'm like i can come back to this restaurant tomorrow if i want to but i'm like i gotta eat all of this right now in case i die i i think like that all the time the next day i'm like you know you didn't have to do that jared yeah like i you could have we could have done this another day of

the week we could have spread it out you know we could you could you could have brought brought it home and had a little bit each day and it wouldn't have felt like you know you wouldn't have spent all day on the toilet like you're doing right now. Yeah. I'm going through that today. I ate something late last night that I shouldn't have and I woke up and I said, rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat. And I was like, why did I do this? Why, why? You and I both.

Why did I have six martinis? That was pretty stupid. Yeah, a martini is just a cup of vodka or gin depending on where you lean and right yeah i had c c c flavored uh vodka over and over again um here's a question which one of you would do better on the long-running cbs show survivor long-running CBS show, Survivor? Ooh. She would.

She would do much better. There's no question. I would be... I can't keep my mouth shut. I'm not good at making... Like, Jordana's, like, really good at, you know, knowing the temperature of the room. I'm just like, hey, what's the temperature you know

like i'm like and they're screaming i'm the screaming idiot who thinks he knows more than he does so like i i think she would be good like and also i'd be complaining about you know putting the you know the shelter together you know fire, I complaining about everything. People will be like, we just got to get rid of this guy for a vibe change. Like I'd be, I'd be the bad vibe, you know, like I can, like,

can you believe, you know, I'd be like annoyed at everything, bringing up like things that people are like, who cares? Like, why are you bringing this up? Like,

have we split the fish evenly? Like, isn't it annoying you know like so there'll be like they like they do vote people off sometimes because they're like i just don't want to hear this person talk anymore annoying right i i'd be the annoying vote they'd be like well we'll get back to the game next week let's just get rid of this this will make everything douchebag yeah they like lose the challenge on purpose just so they have the opportunity to vote you out. Right.

They're like, finally, we get a quiet moment. Okay. Last question. What do you hope you and Jordana are both doing 20 years from now? Oh. are both doing 20 years from now oh um i hope we hang out you know we got together um a couple weeks ago at her new house and it was like really nice to like hang and chit chat and um and all that stuff so you know i hope there you know, I hope there's, to say I hope there's a podcast,

like I think that's like, who knows what the world is and, you know, things change. Do podcasts even exist? Yeah. Right. They might just be called mindcasts. Right.

Right. Programmed into your brain. Yeah, programmed. Everyone has their own podcast so no one listens to podcasts. Maybe everyone just has. You know, like i um and we're all just talking into the ether for nobody right right i i hope we're like talking shit about like like i just saw like her new home and her and her husband like we hung out and had a nice time and it was like oh this would be nice to still keep up you never know

but uh to be able to shit talk would be fun i like that all right me too well that's the end now we're gonna go get dranana and see if you guys answered correctly and the same i'm not sure if i went to yeah what direction i'm wondering what direction she took, you know, like I'm very curious. Yeah Do you want to start this year do you want me me to start this? You start. I like this. Hell yeah. We asked, how did you two meet? Jordana said, Jared and I met in 2012 when he was hosting our Betches of Comedy events. We met through mutual friends and it was all downhill from there. We went to a bar after our first Betches of Comedy event. And I remember he was funny on stage and I was drunk at the bar.

So I honestly don't remember too much of him, but I remember he was funny on stage and I was drunk at the bar so I honestly don't remember too much of him but I remember not being offended Jared said we met through Jewish geography I was on a family vacation with my brother's friend's mom who knew that I that he that Jared did comedy Jared got together with the friend and discussed Jordana and the Betches and they put a show together in DC Jared hosted and had female comics on the show, and there was a bar downstairs with games, and he thinks he met Jordana within the friend group of a post-show hang. So, you guys got that right. Sounds right.

I think so, yeah. There we go, yeah. There's a lot of pressure. I'm feeling, like, anxious about this. I'm anxious. That was the easy one. Yeah, that was. Yes, there's a lot at stake here being your friendship.

Yes. Next, we asked, what is your favorite memory of traveling together? Jordana said, one of my favorite memories was not knowing that we were on the same flight and he was in first class and I was not. And then we get on the flight and he goes, oh, whoops, I'm not actually first class. I'm in Delta comfort, which was embarrassing for him. And he may have a Delta complex. And he said, my preferred flight is Delta, but I don't have Delta plus.

And Jared is like George Clooney and up in the air. And then Jared said, Jordana loves Starbucks. Whenever we're traveling, she gets Starbucks. She loves a Starbucks wrap and she's easy to travel with. In a way, oh, and she loves Starbucks in a way that she's embarrassed about.

I'm looking for a coffee shop to sit down in and write. I guess I'm a bit of a snob, but she loves a chain spot. I think you two got that both right because you both love big business delta and starbucks yes love it we share a love of corporations no boutiques over here yeah yeah oh long beach i there's a running joke that i that i want to um like uh become very wealthy

and then develop um my in-laws hometown or the town that they live in just to knock the whole thing down kick out the people who live there and build a higher rise well it's my dream wow that's your dream that's funny uh we asked what's your favorite thing about your friend rodana said he's very funny and he's good and he's uh he has a smart take on things he just gets it he has sound advice on our benefits episode jared will break down what's going on with my husband's head which is very helpful instead of fighting with my husband i just bring it to jared and he helps jared said she's very direct easy to go back and forth with no gameplay no not getting back to you early on i would post tweets uh knowing that they

would post them on instagram and the text was easy it was like this i i would say does this feel betchy and she would say no or yes and a lot of men are built of wanting to they want to be the funny one and there's egos that get in the way, but that's not there with Jordana. Men are vague, and they play games, but not with Jordana. Plus, she's unbelievably funny, quick, and fast. Love it. We nailed it. Warm feelings.

Love it. Yeah, very sweet. Thanks, Jared. Thank you. We asked, what is your friend's favorite thing about you jordana said jerry's favorite thing about me is that i'm open-minded and that we hate the same people good point and then jared said i like to think she would say i'm nice but i think she would say how hard I work.

Which, yeah. I think all these qualities are appreciated. Yeah. We asked, what's something you do that drives your friend crazy? Drenana said, it's funny. I think if there was something, he wouldn't tell me. Ooh, I guess it's whenever I come to a show, I ask for 33 tickets. He hopes I'm not in any city he's performing

because he'll be performing for a free show. Jared said probably interrupting. Didn't annoy me. I told you it didn't annoy me. I know, but I don't think you would have told me if you did. I didn't believe you. Right. I would have found someone else to talk about you.

You would have found someone else to talk shit about you. Yeah. Jared said probably interrupting, but she doesn't seem to get mad about that. I don't know because we never really had an argument. Maybe we have and I'm an idiot. She's probably annoyed at how I date, how I hold on to relationships that I'm not really sure about.

She looks at me like the men in her past. Jordana sees the exact same thing she's been through and then I don't do what she says. Okay. Does my dating you're dating i kind of get annoying that kind of gets practiced and that kind of gets brought up in this next question right like what actually drives yeah so i guess that was kind of accurate yeah yeah yeah something what is something your friend does that drives you crazy jordana said his commitment

phobia i think he has a fear of disappointing people. So the non-confrontation is a side issue that points to the commitment phobia. He should say no more and not be afraid of disappointing people. And then Jared said, she doesn't bother me. But then he said, probably not gaining weight. She can eat anything and not gain weight. I have all the weight issues she is great at leaving a party right on time she's great about eating the right amount and i'm truly jealous of this um that's so nice yours is a compliment that's not fair no i feel bad awkward awkward she's just too perfect

I hate it right we asked which of you would do better on Survivor Jordana said I would definitely I think Jared is higher maintenance than I am

I'm better at roughing it I've been skydiving but not so much the survivalist but I'm more adventurous Jared said she would she would do much better there is no question i can't keep my mouth shut she's good at knowing the temperature of the room i'm a screaming idiot that thinks he knows more than he does plus i would complain

about everything they would vote me off just to change the vibe i'd be the annoying vote jordana nailed that one yeah yeah you guys agreed on that lastly we asked what do you hope you're both doing 20 years from now jordana said i hope we're still podcasting together and we love doing it together it's a fun show that would be very awesome jared said i hope we hang out we got together a few weeks ago at our new house and it was so nice. I'm not sure if podcasts will still exist in such a changing world. Maybe everyone will literally have a podcast and no one will be listening to podcasts. But I hope we're still talking shit and maintaining our friendship. Love that.

Yeah. I think you guys did really well. Yeah. And I think you're friends. I believe. And I think you can stay friends. You're allowed. Finally.

This is so nice. The mystery is gone. I believe you can stay friends. You're allowed. Finally, this is so nice. The mystery is gone. I wasn't sure. Do you ever do you ever tell people that they shouldn't be friends anymore? Yeah, we actually had. We had one and her sister on and they and they didn't know each other. It was the first time that we ever had. It was had zero answers match. They only had one answer match.

I am their sister. Yes, but nope. I'd like to change my answer about the best thing about Jared. He's so kind. Oh, bro. I feel like you answered so much nicer than me.
