Jacks and Viv: Unqualified Jacks and Viv

Fingers crossed, there might just be a light at the end of the tunnel. As vaccines start to roll out, Jacks and Viv start to think through what a post-COVID world will look like when the pandemic starts to show itself out. We can't wait to hang out with our friends again, but what's the proper social protocol now? Can we hug people again? Does anyone even remember how to hug people?? WHERE DO MY ARMS GO??!!

Alright, as a follow-up to our 'things we're really good at' episode, we thought it was only fair to counterbalance with a, 'things we're terrible at' episode. From cooking, to having general self-control when it comes to any type of food, it turns out.. there's quite a lot that we're just not great at. Hopefully you are also bad at these things.. so that we seem less like losers. Grab some wine too - but be careful not to spill and make a mess.. because it happens a lot to us.

Parents. They're supposed to be the ones to guide you in life. Pass down their knowledge and wisdom. But....Santa Claus? Not swimming 30 minutes after you've eaten? You need a husband???!!!! Our parents love us (or at least, we think they do), but MAN can they lie. In this episode, Jacks and Viv run down the list of lies their parents told them as kids... and into adulthood.

The day has finally come. After fighting off elbow-less weirdos and homeless suitors, ages of searching all the dating apps, Jacks is finally the plunge. Yup. She's moving in with her boyfriend. In this episode, Viv answers Jacks' burning questions on how to cohabitate with her SO without killing each other. Viv doesn't really give the best advice, but that's all Jacks has, so it is what it is. Let's hope their boyfriends don't kick them out after this episode...

Which do you celebrate?

Galentine's Day - you give props to your gal pals for sticking by you through thick and thin! You share life updates, whether it be promotions, breakups, a new recipe or an unmentionable experience in the bathroom. When you're drunk, you know your friend will get you water or hold your hair back when you need to throw up. If you're Jacks, you know Viv will be nearby, recording your drunken dance to Britney Spears and sharing it with you months later when you least expect it.

Valentine's Day - usually there's food and maybe flowers involved? And probably a Hallmark card..

And if you're like Jacks and Viv, you celebrate both! In this episode, they try something a little different and play one of those obnoxious Valentine's Day games that couples do. (No, not a pervy one!) You know, where you ask each other love questions? Welp, that's what gets attempted in this episode.. get ready for a little Valentine's Day Q&A with Jacks and Viv!

She is really good at this.
Yes, it's a Haiku.
