Summary

This week J & J dig into Jared’s hilarious origin story as a summer camper in New England, and how it still resonates with his life today. The episode kicks off with listener feedback on Jared’s ongoing Summer Dating Challenge, followed by a laugh-out-loud “Icky or Picky” that’s both “yummy” and divisive. Next, the hosts answer a listener’s question about how to date more intentionally in a world full of people still "figuring out their relationship type." Finally, J+J wrap up with a Red Flag or Deal Breakers, where they dive into travel compatibility, the chronic relationship type, and a bold move from someone handing out their number. 00:00 - Intro 13:00 - Jared's New England Camp Days 20:39 - Summer Dating Challenge 39:12 - More Is Not More 54:01 - Different Vacation Styles in Couples #Dating #Advice #Hinge #Debate #RedFlag #Dealbreaker #DatingApps #Podcast #Summer Learn more about your ad choices.
