Summary

Co-parenting with a narcissistic ex in prison wasn't part of the plan. Now he wants phone calls with your son. What could go wrong? This is Feedback Friday!

And in case you didn't already know it, Jordan Harbinger (@JordanHarbinger) and Gabriel Mizrahi (@GabeMizrahi) banter and take your comments and questions for Feedback Friday right here every week! If you want us to answer your question, register your feedback, or tell your story on one of our upcoming weekly Feedback Friday episodes, drop us a line at friday@jordanharbinger.com. Now let's dive in!

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:

You're co-parenting with your ex who is currently in prison for multiple crimes including drugs, guns, and stolen property. Your young son misses his dad and wants phone calls, but you're concerned about your ex's narcissistic tendencies and potential for retaliation. How do you protect both your son's heart and your safety?
You've been a loyal employee for 11 years, but after your company was acquired, you discovered new hires are making significantly more than you. With a recent acquisition of an Indian company making everyone nervous about job security, how do you advocate for fair pay without rocking the boat?
Your nephew's friend fell victim to a devastating online scam involving compromising photos, leading to tragic consequences. As these scams targeting young people become more prevalent, what can parents and communities do to prevent similar tragedies?
Your fiancée bought a house without your input, following her parents' wishes rather than your shared plans. Now she wants to live alone first and might not give you space for your belongings. Is this just about the house, or is there something deeper going on?
Recommendation of the Week: Portuguese Reggae Music
You're torn between joining the Marine Corps and pursuing graduate studies in Milan, Italy. Having experienced both the military culture and European life, you're struggling to choose between duty and adventure. Which path leads to your authentic self?

0:00.0	Welcome to Feedback Friday. I'm your host, Jordan Harbinger. As always, I'm here with Feedback
0:07.8	Friday producer, that Q-Tip, you know darn well you stick just a little too far down that ear canal
0:13.3	of life drama, Gabriel Mizrahi. Getting increasingly absurd, dude. That does feel, though,
0:19.3	like an upgrade from, what was it, jiggly, knockoff USB dongle?
0:22.8	Yeah, for sure. You're moving on up, Gabe, or rather moving on in to that ear canal. Yep.
0:28.6	On the Jordan Harbinger show, we decode the stories, secrets, and skills are the world's most fascinating people, and we turn their wisdom into practical advice that you can use to impact your own life and those around
0:38.2	you. Our mission is to help you become a better informed, more critical thinker. During the week,
0:42.8	we have long-form conversations with a variety of amazing folks from undercover jihadis, drug

0:52.7	author of How to Raise a Healthy Gamer. We covered mental health,
0:55.8	dating, relationships, confidence, and a whole lot more. A great conversation, even if you are not a
1:00.3	gamer or raising a gamer at all, of course. And we had a skeptical Sunday last Sunday on sound
1:05.7	healing. On Fridays, though, we share stories, take listener letters, offer advice, play obnoxious
1:10.1	soundbites,
1:15.5	and compare Gabe to various toiletries that you would find in a hotel amenity kit.
1:19.7	Yeah, we do do that. At least I'm not the shower cap. You know those shower caps that rip as soon as you try to put them on? I do. And I'm always like, who's using this enough
1:23.3	where this is in every amenity kit? This is a girl thing, dude. Girls use the shower cops at hotels.
1:28.1	Clearly, it's just so weird.
1:29.7	And you pull it on and the string just separates immediately from the plastic and you're
1:33.2	thinking, whose delicate little fingers can put this on without destroying it?
1:36.8	Not mine.
1:37.3	Sounds a lot like you've been using them in hotels.
