Pop Culture Thursday! This week Jared dives into the clickiest headlines from Kacey Musgraves’ horniness going viral to a wild family revelation involving Steven Tyler, a rock concert hookup, and a paternity surprise years in the making. Yep, Liv and Mia might have a new sister, and Jared’s got thoughts.

He breaks down the timing, the fallout, and the awkward logistics, especially for the guy who thought he was the dad. Then it’s onto the Aimee Lou Wood SNL dental drama as Jared defends the right to joke well (but calls out lazy punchlines) and talks about the fine line between iconic and low-hanging fruit.

Later, he reacts to a Bravo producer’s claim that reality TV gets less fun when the stars go sober. Jared explores why audiences crave mess and the impossible challenge of being entertaining and stable on camera. Plus, here's a quick take on And Just Like That’s new trailer. Why does no Samantha equal no fun?

All that plus some advice emails, a plug for Friday’s Coffee with JTrain featuring a golf nightmare, and a reminder to like, comment, and subscribe. Hit play and let Jared take the wheel.
