85. Giving you mama’s boys, manifesting, and ultimatums

It’s the first episode of 2026! It may be a new year but it seems like all of our problems are still the same. The same clingy mother-in-laws, marriage ultimatums, and fake instagram accounts. But no worries, Alex and Jon are here for all of them. However, for the new year, let’s make a resolution to have new problems! That means more exciting episodes! We’re going into “manifestation mode” for this one.
