Getting (and Getting Over) THE ICK with Jared Freid | Ep. 281



The Lord has returned! Our most recurring guest Jared Freid (comedian, podcaster, ick whisperer) is joining us to talk about THE ICK. We define what the ick is (and what it isn’t), break down icks vs. turnoffs, share our own icks and Jared’s favorites from around the world, discuss ick appropriation and if icks have gone too far, and Jared explains down why guys don’t get the ick. We also talk about ExtensionGate, the main difference between β€œbad dates” in NYC vs. LA, and airline loyalty, and then we have one of the most awkward recording moments in Girls Gotta Eat history. Before Jared joins us, we’re catching up on Rayna’s Italy trip and our latest thoughts on solo travel, debate which pizza chain is best, and Ashley shares the psychotic thing she did to her brother’s Barbie when they were kids. AND we have tons of TV and book recs. Enjoy!

  1. Yes I did just stop the podcast on my phone, stop my work, and immediately open YouTube to witness the "fist bump" in person. ABSOLUTELY WORTH IT πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  2. Okay so I actually think when a couple is sitting there not talking, unless they're obviously pissed, it usually means that they are really comfortable together and are just evesdropping so they can talk shit together lol. My fiance and I always say we can tell when its a first date because they never stop talking.
