The JTrain Podcast

First up, Jared’s fresh off a Fort Lauderdale to NYC to Boston travel day and gets sent into a spiral by his beloved snow boots: thick laces, constant untying, and the emotional journey from single-knot optimism to double-knot resignation.A listener follows with a very relatable airline rage: paying for a carry-on but still being forced to gate-check it, which sends Jared into a full “take boarding zones seriously” fantasy that you’ll want to hear in his exact tone. Other complaints hit the NYC snow-removal chaos and the eternal scam of street cleaning that mostly just… rearranges dirt. Finally, a listener vents about being completely turned off by dating app profiles that lead with negativity about the apps themselves.

Jared kicks off Mailbag Monday from Delray Beach with a classic rant: preorder his book Walking Red Flag (mostly to prove his dad wrong) and please don’t DM him excuses for missing shows. Then he dives into a birthday-party mystery when two very sentimental Chiefs commemorative Coca-Colas disappear from the garage fridge… and the prime suspect is a friend’s “used car salesman” husband with a history of cheating and sketchy behavior. Next, a woman wonders if it’s needy to ask why her guy ditched their brunch for Super Bowl plans. Finally, a bride-to-be panics over wedding speeches because she wants one best friend to speak… but not the other.

It’s Chit Chat Wednesday, and Jared is joined by comedian Raanan Hershberg, whose new YouTube special Morbidly Jewish sparks a thoughtful, funny conversation about comedy, controversy, and why labels kill nuance. They dig into what it’s like doing standup in a time when even obvious jokes about bad people somehow become “debates.” From antisemitism discourse to why audiences sometimes seem offended by the mere act of joking, it’s a ranty, smart back-and-forth on why comedy still matters. Then things take a turn toward food, where the two bond over Katz’s Deli, gluttonous pastrami sandwiches, and the chaos of ordering as a team.

Jared is back for Ticked Off Tuesday, begging people to keep weed smoke out of restaurant entrances and to stop treating the front of the coffee line like storytime. Then he spirals over Threads being less “fun alternative” and more “comics loudly arguing in public for sport.” A listener points out that one little snowstorm turns grocery stores into pre Hunger Games chaos, which… fair. Another vents about a networking call getting flaky canceled, and a newlywed discovers name changes make TSA PreCheck a bureaucratic nightmare. But the funniest rage is a brand new mom who’s running on fumes while her husband randomly starts logging baby feedings in military time, sir, read the room!
