Is that possible? Jon even recounts a story from his music festivals days and crowd surfing. Let’s just say if Jon could go back and relive his glory days…he wouldn’t.

    I always like y’all’s advice but I feel for the daughter in law. My mom was always jealous of me, and made these “compliments.” In reality she just wanted me to put myself down in return while complimenting her. It does get exhausting when you know someone is constantly looking at you. It’s weird, idk how to explain it but it always made me feel dirty and bad for being “better.” (In her eyes)

    That girl just doesn’t want her dude to go have fun in Mexico without her so she’s skipping her best friends wedding lol

    Jon: "Let's move on because I've almost spilled the beans twice"
    Also Jon: "Well I'm definitely cleaning the house WAY more than Alex right now..."
    Listening to this episode again after knowing the big news is hilarious and I'm surprised I didn't pick up on the beans Jon almost spilled earlier 😂

    That girl with the wedding decision is a complete asshole. That lady was your MOH and you did that to her just so you could be on your husbands backside and watch him in Mexico. No, to do that to a best friend is foul. That friend should never speak to her again.

    You go to your friends wedding and your husband goes to his friends wedding. You dont need to spend everyday with your spouse. Yes you are 100% the AH.

    John infuriated me in this, he doesn’t listen and then flips out on Alex as if she didn’t read/explain things perfectly

    You two are the only therapy I need. 😂I can't control my laughter at the gym when I'm on the treadmill. I had to stop and just laugh one day. Thank goodness there are normal couples out there with brains and just feel how my husband and I do about so many things. You both are awesome.

    The wedding is definitely difficult cause the Mexico wedding is the couples core friend group in their adult life.
    If you go to one and not the other the results will be the same.
    You either hurt one friend or you both go separately.

    There are ways to get skunk smell out. My dog had the same thing happened. I think I did vinegar and tomato paste. It worked really well! I got it off google.

    On the note of chores, one of the things that my husband and I do is whoever cares the most about how something gets done has to do that thing. So we each have certain roles that we take on and then there’s other stuff that’s a free for all. We also try to go with the momentum of productivity. So start with something easy and take that momentum to do more time consuming things.

    Skipping Best Friend Wedding question is wilddd!
    Sounds like the person writing in would have FOMO not going to the Mexico wedding since more of their group of friends they hang w/ regularly will all be there. I understand wanting to celebrate weddings w/ your significant other too but really seems like the best choice would be to split up and she go to CO to celebrate her MOHs special day while her hubs goes to MX ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ unless her and her former MOH arent as close any more and she wasnt going to be a MOH or in the wedding party.

    I don't understand why the wedding question is such a debate? Why can't you each go to the other weddings. The husband to his friend and the writer to hers?? I think she just want an excuse to go to Mexico. This person was YOUR MOH...there's no question. You have to go!

    Yes you ARE grown ups. Grown up enough for you and your man to split up for ONE weekend. She was maid of honor at your wedding and you confirmed you were going. Again, she was maid of honor. I know she showed up and showed out. It’s giving jealousy, honestly. There’s no reason to not go. You are most definitely the a hole. 35:11

    I think you should do the post cast by yourself, your husband sounds like he doesn’t want to be on it. He rushes through all the questions.

    The pod has gone down hill since yall came back. Like I get that yall don’t give good advice but at this point it’s feeling extremely low effort and like yall just want to get through the questions.
