About this episode

It's Halloween, so Jordana came ready to get messy while Jared showed up buzzed–but not in the way you’d think! First, J&J kick off with a pop quiz on spooky season dating terms. Then, a listener asks how he can get his long-distance girlfriend to communicate more. J&J discuss what this could mean for his relationship. The Awkward Encounter involves coworkers too close for comfort and reminds Jared of an awkward encounter of his own. Next, a newly single listener wonders how and when she should address her baggage. Her last relationship ended with infidelity and a divorce, but does every date need to know? The episode ends with a “Red Flag or Deal Breaker?” about food gifts, calling someone “hot,” and using group pics on the apps.
