That's right, every Thursday is a Pop Culture Thursday. Me, the comedian and podcaster. Me. I don't know. That's a weird way to start that sentence. I, Jared Freed. I, me, myself, and I, here's what we do on this podcast. I go to page six and while I'm podcasting with you, I go headline for headline and we talk out the stories. That's it. It's light, it's breezy, it's easy. Some would call it easy breezy. Beautiful covergirl. We go through the stories. I kind of just riff on them. And I truly enjoy doing this version of the J Train podcast. So I hope you guys enjoy it as well. If you, you know, I would love for you to share it with a friend.

So take a listen. Maybe I have an original take. I don't know. I'm trying. So this is every Thursday. It's Pop Culture Thursday. We'll do some stories.

So that's our sponsor for today. We're done with sponsors. This. We're, we're all. We're. We're fully in the show. This first story just. I think this story is interesting based on, like, the Internet stuff. Like, here's how there are people on the Internet you can crush and there's people you can't crush. And this title, Chappelle Roan, details performative hookups with men before coming out as a lesbian. I was fooled. I mean, that's a pretty. That's a pretty divisive headline. You were fooled. I mean, let's get in the article and listen. I'm a Chappelle Roan fan. I do think, you know, on this podcast, we talk a lot about, like, Q ratings, which is like the. Whether you like someone just by hearing their name. You know, we talk a lot about the brand. Like, what's your brand? You know, Chappelle Roan, I think of for fun. I think of for glam. You know, she's like the new, you know, Madonna. I would say she's in the for me. I'm saying this is for me. She's in the Madonna. How am I blanking on her name? Rah, rah, rah, rah, rah, rah. I can't put that into Google. How am I blanking on the musician's name? She's got. I even know Abracadabra is her new song. Am I out of control? Doesn't she have an Abracadabra? Well, now they're giving me Steve Mil, Steve Miller band, Lady Gaga. Jared, come on. I'm losing my mind here. I would put her in the Madonna, Lady Gaga phylum where she's gonna, you know, glam it up and it's going to be this big number. Where she's going to dress in this way that's interesting and fun. She's an art piece. She's a walking art piece. And I, I, and, and I do know just because, and I do think maybe I'm a little bit more online than the regular everyday straight dude, that she's gotten, like, flack for her sexuality. So it does make sense for her to go. It says Chappelle Roan used to have performative hookups, and they put that in quotes with men before she came out as a lesbian in 2018. I know that she got kind of shit for like, or it's, I don't know for a fact, but this is something that I hold to be true, is that the audience gave her some pushback that she was kind of like, that she was not always a lesbian, which I think that's kind of unfair. Like, like, I, I, I, you know, this whole thing of, like, you know, you know, coming out for someone, I would imagine is just this very difficult time of confusion. So I, and, and the world, you know, societally, you're told all you see on TV is, you know, straight couples and stuff like that. So you go, that's what I'm supposed to be. And then you kind of, you know, you go through this weird part of your life where you kind of try and figure yourself out, and then you go, oh, this makes so much sense now. So, like, to have Chappelle Roan, and I hope I'm saying her name right, Chappelle. Chappelle. Chappelle Chapel. Chapel. I think Chapel. To have Chapel Roan, like, have to explain how she, like, worked that out, I think is unfair because anyone would have to work. Even straight people. You know, like, that's, that's like the frustrating part. Like, even, like, you know, me, a straight guy, it's not like I, like, just got to sex and knew exactly what I wanted right away and the type of partner I would want to be with. Like, you go through figuring that out and what you like and what you don't like, so that even that is, it's truly unfair. So I do know that her answering to these people who think they deserve more than they deserve is not crazy. But I don't think you have to, like, smash you know, men to, like, make yourself chapel. Roan used to have performative, quote unquote, hookups with men before she came out as lesbian. In 2018, the Grammy women winning pop star 27 again. She's 27. Appeared on Wednesday's episode of Call Her Daddy. And got candid about her sex life then and now. When Roan was having sex with men, it's in quotes. She felt like she had to put on an actual I to me. Maybe I'll bring this up on a chit chat Wednesday with. With someone who is also, you know, identifies as lesbian. Because I would want to know. Like, I think most people would have that. I would think. Let me speak for myself. I think when you're first, you know, you're putting on an act. When you first getting physical with anyone, you don't know what you're doing. Plus, her experiences were not mutually beneficial. That means they didn't go down on her. I think about hooking up with women compared to men, how much women give to their partner. She told Alex Cooper host Alex Cooper, specifically, in femme relationships, it's such an understanding that it's so giving. I just feel like when I was with men, it wasn't mutual. So that's. I would assume to me, that's her saying they don't go down on her and she's, you know, going down on guys and they're not receiving the favorite. Again, the age matches up to this. I mean, to me, at this point, I think if you're a young man, like, you're just like. I guess, like, I would assume young men are just, like, told. This is more of a thing now than it was when I was a kid. But even as a kid, I. You know the joke of guys falling asleep after a blowjob and not giving to their women? That was probably a thing. The unapologetic hot to go singer who's been open about her mental health struggles, admitted later in conversation that having sex with women was much easier than she thought it would be. I would. Yeah, because it's literally, you know, all the parts. Like, again, this is all, like, written as hot takes, and they're not really hot takes to me. And I think to me, you know, my feedback to the audience of the Internet is like, it is. I do think it's. I'm not saying people don't give shit to women on the Internet, but I do think it's free reign. I think when you can go, well, you know, to me, this is like hackery. This is, you know, if I saw a comedian go on stage and, like, talk about how, you know, men don't go down on women, I would go. It would be a little bit of an eye roll for me. When I started hooking up with women, I realized how easy it was. It is actually. I realized how easy it is to eat a girl out. She explained, noting that she always thought her neck and jaw would hurt. I always thought I'd get tired down there. Okay, the musician continued, you know what's hard? Sucking dick. Is it eating a girl out? You can lay down. I was fooled. I was foolish to think that, of course it wasn't as hard as I thought I was doing for men. Okay, so that's the fooled part. So this is a, this is a deceitful headline. The idea that she was fooled, though, she was fooled to think that it would be harder to go down on a woman than it is to go down on a man. Which I listen, you know, the body, it's your. You have the same parts. You do get to lay down. I think, you know, I've. Women have laid down during, you know, giving me heads. So I don't know. I think you could find another position. Roan went on to reveal that she's having an awesome time in a committed relationship for the past six months. Good for her. It's serious. I'm very in love. I'm pro. But I'm pro single. See, this is the thing. And this is again, a response to the Internet. I don't even know who we're responding to anymore. If someone said, I'm serious, I'm very in love, I wouldn't go. I wouldn't feel judged as a single person. I would go, good for you. That's how, that's how a actual, like well adjusted person would respond. But for her to go, but I'm pro single, she's really defending herself to people that you don't have to defend yourself to. Oh, so you're saying being single sucks, huh? No. Just because I said I love being in my relationship doesn't mean I hate single people and think they're idiots. That's. It annoys me that she has to do that. She clarified, though, she did not reveal the identity identity of her partner whom she's been dating since before she quote unquote blew up. And then she says everyone should be single. The Pink Pony Club song stress stressed. I'm serious. Be single. Stop dating. Be single. Have a great time alone. Find out for yourself if you can 100 be okay alone at before you date. That's what I found out. I, I don't agree with her saying that. I, I think that's like, you know, I just said just because she likes chocolate doesn't mean vanilla. But like, to go to me, imagine you're in a relationship with like your high school sweetheart. And they're like, hey, I saw this interview with Chapel Roan and I gotta be single. She said, stop dating. That's how she found out about herself. I mean, like, I think it's nice to hear someone say that because it's the encouragement. Maybe someone needs to break up with someone they never really wanted to be with to say that, you know, a high school sweetheart can't be the one. It can be. All things can happen. Here's another headline that I just think is probably not true. Gwyneth Paltrow exposes Nikki Glazer for wanting to fuck her ex, Ben Affleck, after seeing him on Raya. Now, this headline is crazy. This would make me believe that Gwyneth Paltrow went on her Instagram stories and was like, is showing receipts of the text. She saw the, you know, Nikki Glaser trying to fuck her husband. You know what it is? Nikki Glazer went on her podcast. So this was a. So the idea that it was exposing. There's no expose going on Gwyneth Par. And see, look at the article. The minute you click on, it changes. Gwyneth Paltrow hilariously called out Nikki Glaser for wanting to fuck her ex, Ben Affleck. The actress exposed the comedian in Tuesday's episode of her Goop podcast as they discussed Glazer repeatedly encountering the. The actor on a celebrity dating app. In the past, when I used to be on Raya and he would come across, I would give him a very concentrated check mark. Yes. And, like, never got it back. She dished. Yeah, that's what you do on a dating app. You take a shot. Why wouldn't Nikki Glaser do that? Why would Nikki. I was. I will say I am very happy for Nikki. She sent me some very nice messages out of nowhere. I. And, like, she's probably the most. One of the most famous comedians alive right now. But she just sent me such a nice message once and it was. It meant a lot to me and I. And now, you know, that's all it takes with me. But I. I do that. It was like out of nowhere. She was like, my friends were at a show and mentioned that you were great and just a very. At the Cellar. And she is just like, a totally nice thing to do. And, you know, it makes you remember, like, yeah, if someone says something nice to you about someone else, let them know. Yeah, it's a kind of a lesson. Paltrow, who dated Affleck on and off from 97 to 2000. I I guess all the J. Lo and Jennifer Garner stuff, you forget him and pout. Her and Paltrow. Him and Paltrow were the thing. He really does go back to people on and off from 97 to 2000. So he does have a thing. Express surprise over the many celebrities Glaser saw on the exclusive app. Well, Gwyneth Paltrow's podcast could be called Gwyneth Learns about Humans. That's what it should be called. Like that's what this conversation is. You suck actors on Raya. Tell me more. This is like going over to your married friend's house who's annoyingly, annoyingly happy with themselves for being removed from society. That's my least favorite person. The one who is brags about knowing nothing. And now this is her podcast. This is the Brag about Knowing Nothing hour with Gwyneth Paltrow. Tell me you saw who on a dating what? What's a dating app? Can I play with it? The Golden Globes host, 40, also told the Shakespeare in Love star 52 about Andrew Garfield saying nope to her on Raya claiming, I know for a fact he had to have seen my profile. I would have matched with him if he was interest. I Nicki, how do you know that? I guess you could say that. Everyone you like on a dating app, if you don't get a match with them, you they have said no to you. If we actually let me Nikki brings up a good point and this is the reality no one wants to think of with a dating app is you say, I would like to match with them and they will get served you at some point in the way you got served them. And if you get nothing, they have said no to you. This is something we don't think of. I mean I'm talking about this on stage right now. When you swipe right and you get nothing, you go, oh, guess they haven't seen me yet. That's where our brain goes. The reality is they saw you and they went, ugh, no, not for me. And it wasn't mean. It was just them being trying to get there, get to their best place to find their person. You are not their person. And the problem that like an Andrew Garfield, a Ben Affleck have is they are memorable. So if you see them on the dating app, Nikki Glaser sees Andrew Garfield. She's pretty positive that they're going to see her and they've said no to her. So she is kind of. She is right. It's just not fair. I mean like it wasn't done. Like they, you know, I'm joking. Like, they looked at Nikki and within half a second. Not my type. Not my type. Not my type. That's how you look at it. That's how men look at a dating app. Not for me. Not for me. Not for me. Not for me. Ooh, titties. That's it. That's the way we look at it. I do know it's different for women. They want a. Are you checking? And I know this because of the podcast. I know this because I've gotten emails for 10 years about this subject. Does this person have a life? Do they check some boxes? Do they seem like a human being who won't murder me? Those are. I've never thought of murder. While looking at the data guys, Paltrow gushed. That would have been a good one. He's gorgeous. Now he regrets it. No, he doesn't. She is the annoying suburb friend. Gwyneth Paltrow, annoying suburb friend. Now he. Now he regrets it. No, because what? Because Nikki's successful. She was successful. Then he doesn't regret it. She's not his type. That's fine. Glaser, who has been in an on again, off again relationship with Chris Convey since 2013, agreed. I'm sure he is interested now, but why not then? No, he wouldn't. Stop this. I wish I was on this podcast. I would go, stop it. This is two women telling you what men think. This is to me, if, again, this does happen, you know, two men talking about what women think is probably. I mean, I just kind of did it. I can tell you. I just told you. I just told you how women swipe on ass. But I. I am pretty confident in what I'm saying. I'm saying this is not how I would think of things. I wouldn't go, oh, I could have had her. He's just got a different type, you know, that's why. Again, do I have to do this bit every fucking time? That's why there are hyperlinks on every porn website to weird shit. Because enough people googled feet that they were like, we're just gonna have a foot section. Get them to the feet quicker. Everyone is someone's foot. Nikki was not Andrew Garfield's foot. That's not what he's into. I don't know what he's into. I don't know what his look is. I don't know what his type is. I don't know what makes. Because DAV dating apps are very visceral. Very. It is Very and very done very quick. If you watched a man, if you watched me, I'll speak for myself. Swipe on a dating app, you'd be like, what is wrong with you, you fucking animal. The conversation occurred as the pair discussed the Comics 2025 Golden Globes monologue in which she joked about Affleck, 52, shouting out movie names after he orgasms after the January 5 awards. Glazer and by the way, Nikki crushed it. Crushed it. Glaser shared that she had another cut another joke about the gone girl star. Here's to Ben. I can't wait to see which Jennifer you try to ruin next. That's hilarious. That would have been insane. She told Howard Stern. They scrapped the joke. The scrap joke reference Affleck's divorces from Jennifer and it goes on and on. Is it? Paltrow called her Bounce co star technically excellent in bed at the time. However, while playing Fuck, Marry kill in the episode, she killed off Affleck and chose to sleep with Brad Pitt, to whom she was engaged from 96 to 97. I I Gwyneth must be fun. I I Now that I'm I'm going back on my opinion on it. All these she had all these guys and cool guys. Wasn't she with the guy who you know, the musician. The Goop founder also ranked Pitt 61 above Affleck in terms of romance and acting skills, but did say the Good Will Hunting star made her laugh more. Okay. I don't know what I would want as a man. That's a good Would you rather. Would you rather a woman remember for your sexual skills or the fact that you made them laugh? I and I want we should bring that up to you up. I think that's a good Would you rather comment on the Instagram with what you would rather remember for your sexual prowess or the fact that you made the person laugh? What would you rather I guess I'd rather be known as the sexual be the previous year, Affleck's Raya usage made headlines after selling Sunset Star. Emma Hernan called him out in season five of her Netflix show. He may or may not have been Texting me in 2019. The real estate agent told her co stars in 2022. He may or may not have asked to grab coffee a few times. Affleck's rep, however, claimed he had not been an active member for several years. I think that's shitty. You're on a dating app, you know. Yeah. So what he asked you get coffee? Yeah. Ben Affleck wanted to fuck you. It's more brag than embarrassment. Let's go to another story. I mean, I actually looked at. I actually looked at the headlines and I was like, ugh, there's not a lot of stuff here. And now I'm having a good time. I hope you are, too. If you are, let someone know about this show. And if you have a story that you would want me to, like, comment on, send it. You can DM the JTrain Instagram account @j train podcast. You can email jtrain podcastmail.com I mean, if the story lasts, then I'll find a. And that's the thing with some of these stories. You might see it while listening and you're like, oh, weeks gonna go by. Well, by the end of the week, maybe. I just know we find the evolution of the story. Scrubstar Eliza Coop. I hope I'm saying that right. Fires back after premier look sparks concern. Haters can hate. Anytime someone uses the word haters, I think they're a crazy person. Scrub star Eliza Coop fired back of fans who had negative things to say about her recent premiere. Look, pictures from my camera roll the past three weeks. Hashtag, this is what I really look like. Hashtag truth. Hashtag haters can hate. I mean, the more hashtags, the great. I don't know. I'm starting to agree with her. Haters. Hashtag, I choose love. Hashtag, remember who you are. Hashtag transmute. What does that mean? She captioned an Instagram reel on Saturday containing photos and videos of herself. Fans flooded Coop's comments with supportive messages about how beautiful she was. Of course that's what they're gonna do. Yes, show them absolute hit job on you for no reason. You have tons of support and love, as these comments show, and you are a delightful human. Well, one user wrote, I don't think they don't know that. Well, listen, I don't think someone should be, like, called out for their looks. And it's not really anyone's business, but, like, we can't brush off the crazies who call you out on your looks and then not call out the crazies who tell you you're a great human because you posted a picture saying, this is how I look in real life. A, you're beautiful. B, more importantly, you rock. C, and most importantly, as long as you're healthy and happy, no one's opinion but yours matters. Added another this rando in San Antonio listed out, See? Most importantly, as long as you're. Ha. Yeah, we know. How do you know? Did she I, I hope this, I hope that Eliza at least liked that po. That comment. You look great. Can't believe how things got twisted on you. Coops clapback comes after she hit the red carpet on March 19 for the World premiere of Netflix's the Residence at the Egyptian theater in Hollywood, California. At the time, the Making Babies actress, 43, rocked an edgy look, wearing a plunging shimmering gold dress with a dark fur jacket, knee high boots. Okay, let's see the look. Okay, I'm looking at the look. I think she looks fine. I mean, it's just, I mean, it's, it's Hollywood. It's, it's, it's something. It's not. I wouldn't wear it. No, I don't think she looks to me. If my wife wore this, I go, what's the. I would have questions, but I don't think she looks bad or sick. She wore her blonde tresses in a choppy shag haircut. Several social media users said Coop looked unrecognizable. Well, that's the, that's the unfair part. They're comparing her to when she was on Scrubs, which isn't fair. So. And they're getting. Again, as you scroll on Instagram, you get this knee jerk reaction and these crazies. And again, let me make sure. You know, I think that's crazy. Like, it's one thing to comment on the photo. You look great. Oh, my God, where's the dress from? The Spur jacket, Whatever. But to say, but what they're doing is that they're, they're having a very, like, I guess I would call it, you know, I don't mean to sound any type of way, but like an autistic response. Like they're not really. They're just saying something without realizing, like the temperature of the room. Damn, this is just Sad. Scrubstar Lisa Coupe, 43, looked unrecognizable in Hollywood on Wednesday night, wrote one X user. Like, that's crazy. Alongside a photo Coupe from the premiere and one from her time on Scrubs in 20 2009. So let's just say the pictures from 2009, you're saying this person looks different 16 years later. Yeah, come on. You're an asshole. You're doing this to be disruptive. Like they, to me, that person is doing this to get a response. They didn't write that because they actually mean it. Because what they mean, what they're saying is, oh my God, look at this person looks different 16 years later. Oh, really? Is that, is that what you're saying I see this in Los Angeles all the time. This looks more more than nor just normal aging and screams drug abuse. Come on, who are you to even and malnutrition? I don't know her personally so I can't say for sure. So you shouldn't say it all. But I really hope she has family and friends. No, you don't. You wrote this to get clicks to get likes. You did this for yourself. This is the thing we and I've been saying this for a decade now. The and again this is why all podcasters ask you to share. There's a currency to social media and sometimes the only thing you you go well, who would do something you know that makes them no money. The dopamine's the money. The follower is the money. One day the like is the money is the is enough for them. And this person. I see this in Los Angeles all the time. This looks more than like more than just normal aging and screams drug abuse. Are you a doctor? You're not even a doctor saying this. What a load of shit. And she looks good. I'm looking at the picture right now. The outfit is an outfit. It is definitely like a statement. And now I'm looking at her in the picture from Scrubs. What an unfair. So then they go through all these comments which is like fucked up. Let's go to another story. I like going to the ones that are like trending. I mean hers is trending. That one's right. So I'm not a housewives guy. But it seems that though this Teresa Giudice Giudice has Teresa Dudy's husband Luis Ruellas requests $1 million loan extension more money amid tax troubles do how much tax evasion were these people doing? I feel like the only story you see is them with taxes. Luis Ruelis is reportedly requesting more time to tackle his loan and ongoing tax troubles. Teresa Giudice's husband received an extension and that means Theresa by extension received an extension on Monday regarding the 1 million he borrowed in March 2024. Who borrows one? I guess you borrowed to buy a house. But even to buy a house, like that's quite a loan. The outlet reported Tuesday that while he the businessman's final payment is due, court docs show that the deadline was extended to March 25 of the next year. All you hear about is them with taxes. And all I do is see them in front of huge mansions. And then you see like the daughter starting a podcast like I like it's just I feel like some of these housewives and all the people who are on it. Like, they're just like on the road to jail. Like, they're just doing whatever they can now until they end up in jail. Like, I feel like they have like a, like the, the Chrisley knows best. Like they're just like heading towards Chrisley Ruels, who paid the lender 5,000, allegedly requested and received an additional $250,000 loan also due in 2026. I mean, this whole article is all numbers. I don't know who would read this. It's clickbait. Not in its highest form because the article is just all how much he owes. Rosa owns 2.2.6 million. I don't know how you get in this, I guess houses. Giudice already spent time behind bars in 2015 after she and then husband Joe Giadich were convicted on mail, wire and bankruptcy fraud. So they're just, I mean, they're just looking for new. They're just. I, I guess what I feel the worst for them is like, this is all to keep up a lifestyle that they can't afford. Like, they're embarrassed to be living in a certain way because they don't want to show it on social media. And that's to me, why they're borrowing all this money to live the way they can't live. And they believe that at one point, oh, the money's going to come back and I'll make the brand deals I was getting. They're comparing themselves to brand deals they were probably getting while the show was going on. And it's just not the same for them anymore. That's the sad part is like, this is like we're watching. This is to me an addiction. This is a social media addiction playing out with loans like that. Let's do one more story, man. You know, Page Six has all this like, clickbait to get you to buy like makeup that they like disguise as as news. There's not a lot here. I mean, Holly Madison, I haven't heard that name. So she was on the. On the. The Playboy show. Holly Madison and Ghost Adventures host Zach Bagans break up again after six years of dating. She was dating the guy on goes Holly Madison, Zach, Megan have broken up again. The Ghost Adventures host confirmed to TMZ Wednesday that he's moving on from his on again, off again relationship with girls Next Door alum. I won't get into the details, but I'll just say we have shared so many great memories and fun times. Yeah. He goes full saying nothing mode the paranormal investigator. Can you imagine? That's how they describe you. Yeah, the paranoia. You got a TV show. I'll always have love in my heart for her and wish the very best for her. Now back to finding ghosts. They show pictures of him.
