On This Week's Feedback Friday:

  • On a previous Feedback Friday (episode 1274, question two), your fiancé wrote in about not being invited to his stepbrother's wedding, and now you're here to share your side. A botched haircut from your best-friend-turned-hairdresser, an explosive bachelorette trip exit, and a friendship that's been unraveling for years — all of it now rippling into your future family. Were you justified in blocking her, or did that make everything worse?
  • Your in-laws overstep every boundary you set, your father-in-law has a history of physical abuse, and your mother-in-law calls your infant son names — then cries when you push back. Your husband's in therapy but can't yet see his parents clearly, and you're left feeling like the only one protecting your child. How do you keep your son safe without losing your marriage in the process?
  • You're a listener who noticed that the show tends to steer people away from religious therapists — and you're calling Gabe and Jordan out on it. After hearing their advice to a Christian woman who'd had an abortion, you want to know: is there an anti-religion bias at play, or is there a deeper rationale behind the recommendation to seek help outside one's faith community?
  • Recommendation of the Week: Gabe recommends Briggs & Riley luggage — a solid mid-tier brand with smart design, smooth rolling, and a lifetime guarantee that covers free repairs at any affiliated retailer or ships you the parts and tools anywhere in the world.
  • You're 28, about to defend your PhD, newly sober, diagnosed with bipolar disorder, and fresh off a divorce and three miscarriages — and for the first time in your life, you're not sure academia is your path anymore. You missed the window for job applications, you might have to move back to Canada, and you don't even know who you are now that you're finally clear-headed. How do you "find yourself" when you don't know what you're looking for?
  • Have any questions, comments, or stories you'd like to share with us? Drop us a line at friday@jordanharbinger.com!

Welcome to Feedback Friday. I'm your host, Jordan Harbinger.

0:49.6

As always, I'm here with Feedback Friday producer, The Lazy Susan, helping me pass

these morsels of life drama around this voracious table. Gabriel Mizrahi. Lazy Gabi. Lazy Gabi. That's right, which I guess makes me that metal thing that holds the three types of Chinese hot sauce. You know the one you pick up with your index finger and they got these tiny little spoons? Yeah, yeah. The condiment caddy. Yes. Is that what that's called? that makes sense. I think so. Lazy Gaby and the Condiment Caddy has a nice ring to it. Sounds like the name of our future children's book. Yes. Or the premium content tier. Premium, colon. Lazy Gaby and the Condiment Caddy, part one. Weirdest Harry Potter installment ever. On the Jordan Harbinger show, we decode the stories, secrets, and skills are the world's most fascinating people and turn their wisdom

into practical advice that you can use to impact your own life and those around you. Our mission

is to help you become a better informed, more critical thinker. During the week, we have long-form

1:39.7

conversations with a variety of amazing folks, arms dealers, former jihadis, astronauts, money laundering experts, Russian spies, hostage negotiators. On Fridays, though, we take listener letters, offer advice, play obnoxious soundbites, compare Gabe and myself to various, what are those, small wares. That's a word I think I probably never used.

1:58.3

Neither have I. Gabe, you're in New York this week, bouncing all over, I don't know,

touring hot yoga studios and getting ready for Brazil. By the way, because I'm in New York, there are nonstop sirens going down 7th Avenue by my friend's apartment, so there might be some sirens in the background of today's episode, and sorry about that. If you're driving while you're listening to this, neurotically check your rearview mirror every 30 seconds because it may be you or it may be the

podcast. Sorry about that. If you're driving while you're listening to this, neurotically check your rearview mirror every 30 seconds because it may be you or it may be the podcast. Sorry about that.

2:21.3

If you're riding dirty, sorry to stress you out. That's right. But it's just your two pals on the show.

2:26.5

To all of our listeners carrying drugs in their car right now, we apologize.

2:30.6

Well, I'm in Northern California, prepping interviews and battling this weird plague I've had for

weeks. Gabe, I realize I've been sick for 2.25 months of this entire year that has been three

months long. Insane. Brutile, dude. I don't know what's going on with you. One of us is visiting
