Getting divorced sucks. But getting divorced before you’re 30? Kind of chic. In this week’s episode, Alex and Jon talk about break ups, divorces, and dating married men. It’s all fun and games until he doesn’t leave his wife. But don’t worry! Alex and Jon are still happily married. They do talk about what they would do if they ever got divorced. Alex would be fine…but Jon? He can’t afford to lose Alex so he’s on his best behavior…for the rest of his life.

What should you get your best friend for their birthday? According to Jon: Nothing. Zip. Zilch. Nada. In today’s episode, we’re talking MONEY, HONEY and the expectations surrounding gift giving. Jon gets pretty heated in this one, so you may want to lower the volume on your speakers. If you take one thing from this episode, it’s this: Do not buy Jon gifts. Ever. Alex will gladly accept though!

“You know you’re adopted, right? I’m telling mom!” In this week’s episode, Alex and Jon discuss sibling relationships and how you can be best friends as kids and enemies as adults. Your “built-in best friend” doesn’t sound so great when they’re stealing your inheritance or picking the same baby names as you. People say Alex and Jon look like siblings and although they swear they’re “husband and wife”…it makes you think why they always argue…like children.
