Summary

In this juicy episode of the JTrain Podcast, Jared dives deep into the latest internet-fueled drama surrounding White Lotus co-stars Walton Goggins and Aimee Lou Wood. Are they feuding or are fans just reading too much into an Instagram unfollow? Jared breaks down everything from behind-the-scenes tributes to eagle-eyed netizens (ugh) and why an unfollow does say something. Plus, he reflects on the phenomenon of "White Lotus" becoming a lifestyle descriptor—was it a White Lotus-type hotel? You already know it was nice.

Then, Jared shifts gears to a surprising headline: Michelle Obama addresses the divorce rumors with Barack. Is she just setting boundaries, or is this the type of post-presidency drama straight out of The West Wing?

Then, Jared turns to the latest OnlyFans saga: Sammy Sheen’s car gets repossessed (again), despite her million-dollar earnings. Is this relatable reality TV… or just the collapse of civilization in real time? Jared’s not sure we as a society can take much more. And finally, the Taylor Swift industrial complex rolls on. Ed Sheeran reveals their six-hour friendship catch-ups and Jared wonders: who has that kind of time?

It’s Pop Culture Thursday, baby! Press play for the hot takes, wild headlines, and maybe even a naked soul or two.
