This week on the JTrain Podcast, Jared serves up hot takes and heartfelt advice to help you navigate the wild world of dating and stadium seating. First, a listener is spiraling after their friend matched with their longtime neighbor crush on Hinge… Is it still worth shooting your shot when your confidence takes a hit? Then, a thoughtful 28-year-old guy writes in about feeling lost in love. He's great when he's single, but gets consumed in relationships. How can he keep his center and stop the cycle of losing himself? And finally, we’re breaking down the social choreography of seating arrangements at big events: what do you do when the ideal lineup gets scrambled and someone’s stuck in a conversation desert?

Jared’s giving big brother energy, practical advice, and a few laughs along the way.
