  • 87. Giving you drunk texts, sibling fights, and sharing locations
    Jan 20 2026

    We’ve all sent a drunken text to an ex…but while you’re in a relationship? In this week’s episode, we’re discussing relationships in all forms: parental, friendly, and romantic. Every form matters but they all require different skills and Jon and Alex are here to help you navigate through each one. They’re still working on their relationships with Lucy…which seems mostly one sided since all she does it take…but she gives so much cuteness it doesn’t even matter.
