3. We've Been Fighting: Nicotine, Taylor, Sportsball and Deferred Dreams

"We had a big fight." Jesse and Sharon are back. Fighting interrupted their podcasting, but after a few weeks they try to record a belated Valentine's and Sportsball episode. Jesse derails that trying to find out what Sharon is still upset about and what comes up includes...

• Body image and alcohol - yikes!
• Should you keep waiting on deferred dreams, or seize the day even if it means doing it alone?
• Should there be full disclosure before lifelong commitments, or is a little selective ignorance necessary for survival?
• How to stop effing up Valentines Day
• The expense of differing tastes
• A fight about Taylor Swift, Bleachers, and Metallica
• The worst commentary on the Super Bowl ever
• Tommy Lefroy, thank God
