Salt Shakers, Straw Shamers, and Why Jared Freid Is The Worst - TICKED OFF TUESDAY - The JTrain Podcast w Jared Freid

It's another round of listener complaints for Ticked Off Tuesday!! Jared kicks things off with his own frustrations, from being inexplicably hungover after a lackluster night out, to grappling with the existential crisis of being single in his 30s. He even takes on the absurdity of salt distribution at the Delta Sky Club, where the inconvenience of communal pepper mills makes him lose his cool. As Jared reflects on his hangover and laments his wandering thoughts at a bar, he also dives into listener complaints. These include the dreaded "I have a proposition for you" DMs, which Jared hilariously roasts, alongside other trivial annoyances that drive everyone mad! Jared goes on to talk about the nuances of interacting with doormen and how overthinking the small talk can become an everyday struggle. He reflects on his own experiences navigating these interactions, from casual greetings to the awkwardness of not wanting to engage too deeply. Jared humorously details how his building has an ever-present woman in the lobby, whom he jokingly describes as haunting the place. The podcast continues on to listener complaints, including one about a coffee shop confrontation regarding plastic straws. Jared and the listener share their frustrations over performative environmentalism, especially when it’s thrust upon people before they've had their morning coffee. The episode touches on the absurdity of small issues being made larger than life, while emphasizing how certain actions like using plastic straws won’t save the planet – it’s the big corporations to blame, after all!! Jared closes with a sarcastic take on self-improvement, encouraging listeners to stay exactly as they are. Tune in for all this and more, including a shout-out to all of you writing in!
