    People Magazine Names John Krasinski Sexiest Man Alive - JTrain Podcast Reaction! - POP CULTURE THURSDAY - The JTrain Podcast w Jared Freid

    It's POP CULTURE THURSDAY !! This week on the JTrain Podcast, Jared Freid dives into People Magazine's announcement of John Krasinski as the "Sexiest Man Alive." In his signature Pop Culture Thursday style, Jared takes us through a mix of headlines and hot takes as he reacts to the news, questions the choice, and humorously dissects the ongoing debate around celebrity sex appeal. Jared also reflects on the timeless appeal of Krasinski and how his marriage to Emily Blunt might contribute to his "sexiness." The episode doesn’t stop there—Jared also shares insights on "B Movies with the Baby," his recurring guest segment that rates low-stakes flicks, especially for those curious if they're worth a plane watch. Plus, Jared reflects on male versus female sex appeal, from Sabrina Carpenter’s “female beauty” to Sydney Sweeney’s “guy hot” aura, breaking down why these differences spark such spirited conversations. Jared dives into the world of People’s “Sexiest Man Alive” and the very real anxieties that come with holding such a title. He jokes about how men receiving this kind of recognition are just asking to be teased—especially by their friends. Jared shares a hilarious story of how any compliment he receives, like losing weight, gets instantly undermined by his dad. In 2021, Paul Rudd was named “Sexiest Man Alive” and even he worried about being mocked for it! The conversation moves to Jared’s dad, whose response to any compliment for Jared seems to be endless jokes at his expense😅 Jared calls out “The Baby,” the JTrain’s movie correspondent. The Baby, known for his hilarious obsession with Glen Powell, had written a whole dissertation on Powell being the obvious choice for “Sexiest Man Alive” over the newly crowned John Krasinski👑 In his passionate response, The Baby crowns Powell as the JTrain’s first-ever “Sexiest Man Alive.” This leads Jared to declare that the JTrain will now give out its own annual “Sexiest Man Alive” award, a title that Glen Powell proudly holds as the inaugural winner!!! 🏆 Then, the discussion takes a nostalgic look back at past winners, from Mel Gibson to Mark Harmon, as Jared reflects on how the “Sexiest Man Alive” honor has evolved 😂🏆🙌 The conversation closes with musings on how each era had its own definition of sexy, leading Jared to a humorous exploration of who’s made the list over the years.

    Making Audiences Angry with Adrienne Iapalucci - CHIT CHAT WEDNESDAY - The JTrain Podcast w Jared Freid

    It's Chit Chat Wednesday, and today, we’re thrilled to have comedian  @AdrienneIapalucci  joining us!! Adrienne is a friend of the show and a stand-up favorite, and she's here to talk about her new Netflix special, The Dark Queen !! Check it out! Jared introduces Adrienne as "a true stand-up," bringing sharp, dark humor to her special that’s already making waves. Adrienne’s brand of comedy is refreshingly bold, different, and unapologetically funny. If you've seen other comedians hyping it up on social media, there’s good reason! Jared and Adrienne dig into the journey of creating a special for Netflix, the ups and downs of comedy life, and the unexpected challenges of "making it" in the stand-up world. They also touch on the quirks of being a comedian, from well-meaning but awkward fan interactions to the wild world of Reddit commentary. Tune in to enjoy Jared and Adrienne’s candid conversation about comedy, the comedy industry, and the perseverance needed to stay true to your voice. Adrienne recounts the thrill of nailing one show only to feel disappointed with the next, sharing how new material can reignite that spark. They laugh about the complex reactions from audiences who, at times, love the very jokes that bore the comedian, and Adrienne highlights the strange disconnect when fans can’t tell if a set went well. They also discuss the evolving landscape of comedy, where influencers with niche content often fill traditional stand-up venues, changing audience expectations. Adrienne brings up her experience with "walking the room," referencing a memorable set where a group of cowboys exited during a military joke, showing how divisive comedy can be. Jared and Adrienne get into the contradictions in humor preferences, especially when fans who claim to love "dark comedy" balk at more provocative material. To wrap things up, Jared asks Adrienne about a joke she wishes she could have developed more. Adrienne reveals that she would have loved more time with her Middle East jokes, as world events have continued to shape the material. Fans of Adrienne’s fearless, dark humor won’t want to miss this episode – and Jared encourages everyone to check out her latest special for even more unfiltered laughs. Want more JTRAIN?

    Lululemon, Cream Cheese, and Shower Settings - TICKED OFF TUESDAY - The JTrain Podcast w Jared Freid

    It's Ticked Off Tuesday!! We are diving deep into your annoyances and frustrations. This is the internet’s only place where every complaint—no matter how trivial—is met with enthusiastic agreement, validation, and a healthy dose of humor!! Today, Jared’s got his own set of grievances that’ll hit home. First up, a travel gripe about high-end hotels like the Ritz-Carlton in St. Louis—charging over $700 a night for a stay that he feels isn’t worth the price. Jared breaks down why the Four Seasons offers a better experience for a lower price, leaving him baffled at how the Ritz could justify such a premium.  Next, Jared shares his struggle with finding workout shirts that fit right. His trips to Lululemon often lead to shirts that are either too tight in the chest or unflatteringly long. He’s on the hunt for a shirt that hits the sweet spot without feeling like a cropped gym top or a baggy mess.  Then, there’s the mystery encounter with a woman at Lululemon who wanted to trade her $100 gift card for cash. Jared found himself suspicious, trying to assess if this was a grift or an earnest offer. He dives into his thought process, balancing his natural skepticism with the desire to believe in others’ good intentions.   Transitioning to the listener-submitted grievances 😅👉 Jared first digs into a classic New York complaint: the struggle for balanced bagel toppings! 🥯 One listener vents about their local bagel spot’s inability to spread cream cheese evenly – instead piling it on in clumps or slathering only one side. Jared passionately agrees, offering tactical advice, including ordering “medium cream cheese, both sides spread evenly.” He explains the ritualistic disassembly required to eat a good bagel and adds his own tip for asserting control over bagel orders: ask for gloves as a not-so-subtle reminder to the staff to get it right. Next, we dive into a "holiday gift gripe "🎄 A listener bemoans the lazy tradition of family members gifting him the same sweater or winter coat every Christmas, clearly motivated by the weather rather than any actual thoughtfulness. Jared rallies behind him, humorously suggesting a “Do-Not-Gift List” for Christmas – because who wouldn’t want to avoid yet another uninspired sweater? Finally, Jared reads a travel complaint from a listener plagued by “housekeeping faux pas” at hotels. The latest trigger? Housekeeping consistently resets the showerhead to an annoying rapid-spray setting after each clean. Jared shares his empathy, noting the increasing struggle for travelers to maintain comfort on the road! Want more JTRAIN?

    I hate my job and I'm annoying everyone about it!! - MONDAY MAILBAG - The JTrain Podcast w Jared Freid

    It's MAILBAG MONDAY! 💌 where he takes on emails, messages, and DMs from listeners seeking his unfiltered, honest perspective. His take? He’s not a therapist but offers something just as valuable: an unbiased take with no eye contact required!  We learn first what is going on with Jared! He's diving into the complex feelings that come with trying to “make it” in a big city while balancing the small-town mentality. He reflects on chasing big dreams and the pressure to constantly grow, sharing his goal to make his next comedy special iconic, despite knowing Madison Square Garden might be a lofty ambition. For Jared, this high-stakes chase feels exhausting at times, especially compared to people who seem happy with simpler lives in small towns. The question arises: is striving for success making him happier, or is it just adding stress? An email where they are looking for a job but annoying everyone about it! From a listener brings up classic feelings of being "left out" when visiting old friends who seem content in their local circles. Jared connects deeply with the listener’s high school-style anxieties about belonging, inclusion, and questioning their own life choices. He explains that even in adulthood, we never fully escape high school social dynamics—feeling left out or judged is universal. His advice? Reach out to these people again, enjoy the simplicity, and maybe embrace being the “new kid in town” as a fresh chapter rather than a source of insecurity. As the episode wraps up, Jared highlights relatable issues like hating a day job while working toward a dream. He compares it to his own struggle with writing a book, where some days are rewarding and others are draining. His takeaway: it’s tough to keep going when fulfillment feels distant, but persistence might just lead to something great. Want more JTRAIN?

    Tom Brady Isn't Dating, Heidi Klum Models, and Kristin Cavallari vs Britney Spears - POP CULTURE THURSDAY - The JTrain Podcast w Jared Freid

    It's POP CULTURE THURSDAY! Jared’s sifting through the headlines—from Brady’s “I’m focused on work and kids” PR spin to Kristin Cavallari’s eyebrow-raising comments about Britney Spears. He’s got thoughts on it all and welcomes listeners to send in the stories they want his two cents on! And in true Jared fashion, he’s calling it as he sees it—whether it’s tabloids pushing a narrative or celebs playing the Hollywood PR game. Join for hot takes, laughs, and a chance to unplug from the endless scroll. Jared dives into Heidi Klum’s bold new lingerie campaign, featuring a stunning trifecta of family glamour: Heidi herself, her 20-year-old daughter Leni, and her 80-year-old mother, Erna. Jared brings his spin on Erna's name, quipping that it’s the kind of name that sounds regal in German but feels a little… offbeat in New York. And if you were wondering if three generations of Klums were just “modeling or making out” in those photos—yes, people actually commented on this—Jared is here to remind us that sometimes the world just needs to chill out. Sure, a mother-daughter lingerie campaign might be unusual, but hey, modeling’s in their DNA, right?! Then, in a turn toward the unexpectedly heartfelt, Jared reflects on Christina Applegate’s recent health struggles with MS, honoring her courage in sharing the reality of her condition. It's a softer moment amid the laughs, as he appreciates the vulnerability she brings to her public battles. Finally, Jared shifts to a slightly bizarre Gypsy Rose Blanchard update, the woman famous for the complex case of her mother’s murder. Apparently, Gypsy just took a paternity test to quell online speculation about her baby’s father—something Jared finds as bizarre as the internet’s obsession with her life. It’s like Maury, but make it… Instagram? By the end of the episode, Jared’s spun up a rollercoaster of critiques, laughs, and that familiar, incisive wit we crave every week. Want more JTRAIN?

    Taylor Swift, Charli XCX, & The Art of Being a Pop Star w Nora Princiotti - CHIT CHAT WEDNESDAY - The JTrain Podcast w Jared Freid

    This week on JTrain, Jared is joined by the brilliant Nora Princiotti for an electrifying discussion of pop culture! Who's the powerhouse personalities behind today’s biggest hits? The two dive in 🙌🎵 Nora, a co-host on The Ringer NFL Show and Every Single Album, brings her unique blend of insight and passion—especially for Taylor Swift, whose career and influence serve as a fascinating focal point for the episode. Together, Jared and Nora dive deep into Taylor’s journey from a Nashville up-and-comer to a global superstar, discussing how she became a voice for generations and built one of the most devoted fanbases in music. The conversation doesn’t stop there, though! Jared and Nora break down the layered world of today’s pop stars, contrasting the introspective and "bedroom pop" appeal of Taylor Swift with the edgy, club-kid vibe of Charli XCX. They explore how pop stars like Charli XCX, Sabrina Carpenter, and Olivia Rodrigo each represent distinct facets of modern femininity, almost like avatars for different "going out" personalities. Whether it’s Taylor’s relatable authenticity, Charli’s wild, underground energy, or Olivia’s confessional style, Jared has a theory—dubbed the “Taylor Swift Apocalypse”—about how each artist lets fans embody a specific persona on a night out. Nora adds a layer of depth, connecting each artist’s style to the broader traditions they represent, from Taylor’s raw introspection to the boundary-pushing boldness that defines Charli and Sabrina’s work. As always, Jared brings in some hilarious, offbeat tangents, riffing on everything from the essentials of “going out” gear (like Lumi deodorant and MeUndies) to the ever-important “end-of-rotation” underwear and why he’s officially declaring this season as “lounge season.” Expect a thoughtful, funny journey through fame, fandom, and the unique ways we relate to our favorite stars. Tune in for a lively pop culture deep dive with plenty of laughs and insights from Jared’s ever-entertaining perspective. And if you’re a pop culture lover or just curious about how today’s biggest names reflect—and shape—the world, don’t miss this episode! Plus, make sure to check out Nora’s podcast, *Every Single Album*, for even more music deep dives. As always, Jared brings his signature humor, relatable rants, and the occasional life lesson.

    Expense Reports and Voting! - TICKED OFF TUESDAY - The JTrain Podcast w Jared Freid

    It’s Election Day, and Jared Freid is channeling all that pent-up energy into Ticked Off Tuesday complaints! He's taking on pet peeves and big gripes, starting with some juicy listener submissions from Patreon. Jared kicks off with a listener struggling with a long commute. He flips the situation, suggesting the listener turn it into leverage to ask for a raise or gas reimbursement. Jared even jokes about his own “loss” if the listener ditches the commute—and the podcast. In another story, Jared tackles a wedding food debacle, sympathizing with both the guests and the cash-strapped couple. He then imagines his own ideal budget spread: nostalgic comfort food like chicken fingers and pizza bites—perfect for anyone planning a low-cost but satisfying menu. Finally, Jared addresses the awkwardness of election reminders, poking fun at the social pressure to vote. He questions if vote-tracking is more about shaming than civic duty, with his signature humor and insight. Between complaints, Jared shares updates on his upcoming shows in Tulsa, Dania Beach, and more! Go see Jared live!!!

    Friends After Dating? & Splitting Birthday Bills- MONDAY MAILBAG - The JTrain Podcast w Jared Freid

    Mailbag Monday!! Jared is diving into your questions and gives you his candid, hilarious advice! Today, Jared is a little hungover (thanks, Halloween!🎃), which makes him the perfect level of unfiltered. He's here to answer some listener emails—but not before a passionate monologue about his favorite college football show, College GameDay. Jared shares his thoughts on the new line-up, his love for the tradition, and what’s up with Pat McAfee’s $100,000 field goal challenge. From frustrations with Penn State’s coach to why he really wants to be a guest on GameDay, Jared’s got it all covered. Then, it’s time to tackle questions straight from the DMs and emails, with advice on everything from dating mishaps to friendship dilemmas. Can exes ever really be just friends? With his unfiltered take on the complexities of breakup dynamics, Jared offers up a reality check for a listener who recently split from her boyfriend yet wants to keep things platonic. His advice? Sometimes it’s best to give each other space rather than lingering on the edges of each other’s lives!! Then, in a lighter (but no less awkward) scenario, a listener asks Jared to weigh in on a pricey dinner split at her boyfriend’s birthday. After choosing a fancy Michelin-star restaurant and sharing the bill with her boyfriend’s mom, she wonders if that was the right move. Jared’s got opinions on navigating these modern-day etiquette questions—and the price of treating someone special.
