Summary

It’s Friday the 12th, not the 13th, as Jared hilariously discovers when he falls for a meme about Halloween’s “666-year Friday the 13th” joke! Jordana sympathizes after being duped into thinking the Astronomer CEO apologized on LinkedIn, which sparks a discussion of Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow’s “conscious uncoupling” and how to handle messy breakups with humor and style. They answer listener questions on dating, debating whether a two-year age difference is an ick and if it is rude to ask for a plus one at a wedding. We know the bride and groom are not kings and queens, but do they deserve the final ruling on a plus one? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
