It's a mailbag munder.

You've got problems there.

I'm going to help you from the comfort of my chair.

It's a mailbag Monday.

Hello and welcome to the J-Train podcast This is J-Train Jared Fried.

Coming to a live

from Delaware Beach, Florida.

That's right.

Every Monday is a mailbag Monday

where you, the listener, email me the comedian

with your questions, anything you want.

Why would you ask a comedian for advice?

Well, I've always felt that comedians are great at giving advice because they're great at receiving your story. There's no shock here. There's no,

you did what? No, every story is taken as is, and then we make a move with it.

A comedian's job is, tell me why the house is on fire from your perspective.

That's the job.

So that's what we're going to do.

We, me, what I'm going to do with your email.

Also, I don't have to make eye contact with you.

I don't, and I don't need to get a laugh. That's a, that's a powerful thing too. When you're

trying to get a laugh, you're kind of looking over the necessary details. So I'm going to go,

and I've been asked this before. Jared, you know, you know, oh, how do you be funny when you're giving advice?
