    24. Can You Be a Feminist and Still Expect Him to Pay?

    Send a text This week on Wrong Way Forward, Katy and Justin litigate one of the most chaotic first-date questions of all time: should men pay? We react to Scott Galloway’s “always pay” argument, debate the golden rule (whoever invites pays), and unpack what the bill actually signals—initiative, care, cheapness, or just different expectations. Then we make a hard left into the internet’s newest thirst trap: competency porn—why watching someone be excellent at their job is suddenly hotter than abs. From Suits to Top Chef to Apollo 13-level problem solving, we connect the dots between dating standards, emotional labor, and the universal desire to turn your brain off and trust someone else to handle it. Drop your take: Should men pay? Should women pay? Should everyone Venmo and call it love?

    23. WOAT Would Jesus Do? The Case For/Against Brutal Honesty

    Send a text If honesty is the best policy… does it need to come with brass knuckles? This week on Wrong Way Forward, Katy argues for empathy, Justin defends “brutal honesty without cruelty” (??), and a Dear Abby letter about a WOAT fiancée sends them into full courtroom mode. We cover: Intention vs. impactWhy most people don’t actually want unfiltered truthWhen direct honesty might save a lifeAnd whether you should EVER tell your sibling their partner is the worst of all timePlus: a deeply elegant public response from Melinda Gates that may just settle the debate.

    22. If You’re Asking, You’re Not the Favorite

    Send a text What do bedwetting, summer camp humiliation, and parental favoritism have in common? Apparently… everything. Justin and Katy read an unhinged listener email about peeing the bed at camp, unpack why former bedwetters develop elite crisis-management skills, and spiral into a deeply relatable conversation about shame, survival, and whether parents actually have favorite children (spoiler: research says yes). Also discussed: Purdue studies, grandparents playing favorites, and why the Montgomery Grip may have ruined at least one listener’s life.  Watch on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts.

    21. Get Over Him or Get Under Someone Else? (A Housewives Debate)

    Send a text Is there a respectful way to move on… or is getting under someone the fastest path forward? This week on Wrong Way Forward, Katy Montgomery and Justin Joseph debate Real Housewives breakups, public rebounds, and whether discretion still matters when relationships end — especially when kids and paparazzi are involved. The conversation spirals (naturally) into: Future faking — what it is, why it’s manipulative, and how to spot itWhy promises without action are a dating and workplace trapBrutally honest breakup lines (and whether they’re clarity or cruelty)The difference between being honest and being harmfulEnneagram 8s, Karen accusations, and Justin’s very strong opinionsThey don’t agree — and that’s the point. If you love messy debates, cultural hot takes, and roasting bad advice until it cries, this episode is for you. 🎙️ Listen wherever you get your podcasts  📩 Send your chaos: wrongwayforwardpodcast@gmail.com  📱 Text line: 720-251-4450

    20. Grinding, Grievances & Growing Up Beckham

    Send a text This week on Wrong Way Forward, Katy and Justin wade into a celebrity family feud so messy it makes group texts look civilized: Brooklyn Beckham vs. the House of Beckham. We unpack scorched-earth strategies, alleged wedding drama, grinding rumors that live rent-free in everyone’s head, and what happens when family conflict goes public before anyone’s prefrontal cortex is fully cooked. Is Brooklyn bravely speaking his truth—or impulsively burning bridges? And if you’re David and Victoria Beckham, do you stay silent, lawyer up, or call a family therapist instead of a PR firm? Along the way, we spiral into snow panic, salt hoarding, Broncos stress, mother-in-law stereotypes, Prince Harry comparisons, and whether calling someone “a piece of work” is sexist (jury still out). As always, we ask the only question that matters: what’s the right way forward—and what’s absolutely the wrong one? Bad advice dies here. Family drama does not.

    19. Am I a "Karen"? Here's the Test.

    Send a text Are you a Karen… or are you just assertive? 😅 This week on Wrong Way Forward, Katy Montgomery and Justin Joseph break down what “Karen” actually means (spoiler: it’s more than just asking for the manager) and whether blunt honesty is confidence… or weaponized entitlement. We unpack the five “Karen” traits—neighborhood watch syndrome, escalation as a hobby, selective rule-following, intellectual inflexibility, and more—then apply them to a Dear Abby-style dilemma: two cold, soggy sandwiches, a 45-minute wait, and a friend who keeps calling you a Karen. So… is she a Karen, or just in the wrong zip code? Plus:  ✅ Katy tells a wild American Express story (grief + points = chaos) ✅ Justin admits he goes straight to the top (manager, immediately) ✅ The “Montgomery Grip” makes a comeback ✅ Viewer emails roast last week’s episode (Spanx, magnets, and mini-adventures included) ✅ Puppy Preston makes an appearance 🐶 ✅ And we debate Kim Kardashian gifting each kid a dog (PETA is not amused) If you’ve ever wondered “Was I being a Karen?”—this one’s for you. 📩 Got a topic or disastrously bad advice you want us to dissect? Email: wrongwayforwardpodcast@gmail.com or text us 720-251-4450 (include your contact info) 📅 New episodes every Thursday.
