LIVE FROM BED with Jade Iovine

Taylor Strecker joined us in bed this week!! The podcast and radio host and ‘everyone’s best friend they’ve never met’ took us behind the scenes of her divorce, thinking she was straight when she wasn’t, and her decision to tell the world she’s on Ozempic. She spilled her initial (very hot) take on the Bethenny/Raquel (Rachel?) interview, the celebrity she says is a total asshole in person, and th...

This week my ADHD brain and I take you for a wiiiiild ride. From the legend of blue balls and Jade’s Introvert Recuperation Program (JIRP), to the impossible maybe-baby questions so many of us are tormented by: When should I have a baby? Do I even want kids? When will I feel ready? Is anyone ever ‘ready’? Am I too young? Am I too old? Will my life be over? How can I know what I may or may not be m...

This week, for the very first time on LFB I invited two of my best friends to answer some of your burning friendship questions. A couple weeks ago I asked you guys to send me your modern friendship problems (they were SO juicy so thank you…) and Nicole and Alexa a.k.a Pete and Don entered the group chat to help us out.  How to deal with: The friend that copies everything from your hobbies to cloth...

Live from NEW YORK, it’s…me!! Hi, all my favorite people. This week I’m commiserating from my hotel room in the big city. It’s just me and you this week and truly, I’ve never needed to vent so badly: I finally talked to a pet psychic. And, well… I’ll never be the same. Wondering: will I ever stop missing my best friends? It seems like it’s only getting worse. Reminiscing on a catastrophic miscommu...

SO I have Covid. Which I’m going to blame for the eclectic nature of this episode… I had so many things I wanted to vent to you about while we were OOO, so I hope you enjoy bouncing around from topic to topic as I try to cram it all into this catch-up sesh. Drinking & Flying The two ways to think about vacation sex My thoughts on Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)  Being the problematic person on a...

This week we discussed something I’ve been DYING to talk to you guys about: the ins and outs of FRIENDS with BENEFITS… What questions should you ask before you begin a friends with benefits situationship?   How long do they usually last? Are you being “benched”? Will a friendship end after we’ve made things sexual? Is it possible to make it out of FWB unscathed?  And how many people secretly wish...

Every year, Pornhub releases their top kink searches by state, and all I can say is…you’re about to learn about fetishes you never even knew existed. Catherine and I also talked about sex lives in long term relationships, how to tell if someone wants to have sex with you, and uncovered a darkly hilarious lost memory of when my parents told me they were getting divorced. I also had the WORST hangxi...

It’s just you and me this week, baby!  A solo-solo…one-on-one…up close and personal…a tête-à-tête…mano a mano episode.  Crawl in bed with me as I lay it all out there–as uncensored and unhinged as humanly possible.  We’ll get into:  my unfiltered feelings as we enter ‘bikini season’... the foolproof way to really tell if you’ve outgrown a friendship… how I’m handling the gray area of friendship th...

This week I vented to Catherine about my thoughts on a modern phenomenon I've decided to call "Toxic Relatability".  In an era dominated by online (omni)presence, we've witnessed a shift from aspirational girlbosses to the emergence of self-proclaimed relatable advice-givers. While this change initially seemed refreshing and beneficial, I’m now finding that I've never felt so judged. From the ever...

I can’t believe I finally get to say this… Welcome, welcome, welcome to the very first episode of LIVE FROM BED!!!!  I’m so excited I can’t handle it, but at long last we are breathing new life into our podcast baby and with that comes a name change. The artist formerly known as Tell Me About It is now LFB!  This show has grown so much since we first started and you and I have changed so much in a...

This week Tinx joined the LfB group chat to talk VERY openly about the rollercoaster year she’s had.    We talked about the theories she grew famous for, the tweets that got her canceled, and the book she wrote about it all: ‘The Shift’.   You may think you know her, or that you’ve made your mind up about her controversies, and hear me when I say all opinions are valid and welcome. What she reveal...

I hate to be this girl BUT…we have a crazy exciting announcement for you next week so while we get ready for that I thought it’d be fun to revisit one of my favorite episodes.   Fun fact: I grew up next door to the Playboy Mansion. So, to me, the girls next door really were the Girls Next Door.    It added another layer to my already colorful childhood, with parties and peacocks that kept me up fo...

This week I invited best-selling author, 15-year veteran of the beauty and fashion industry, Succession devotee, and secret hand model DANIELLE PRESCOD to hang with me.    In October of 2022, Danielle released “Token Black Girl” - a refreshingly honest memoir about racial identity, pop culture, and delusions of perfection.    This hour-long heart-to-heart is filled to the brim. We talked about eve...

HOW are we already at 100 episodes!? It feels like this show started just yesterday, but at the same time, it’s hard to imagine what my life was ever like without it. Most importantly, I have to give the biggest thank you to you guys. My pajama friends. Those of you who have been here since episode one, those of you who are just starting to listen today…it’s not lost on me what a privilege it is t...

After two looooong and hellish weeks, I have risen from the depressive hole I’ve been stuck in. Weeks of endless rumination, causeless exhaustion, an unfamiliar flavor of hopelessness, an inability to access my real personality or a genuine laugh, and what felt like failing at everything - from my personal relationships to my job and everything in between.    When you’re in a depressive episode, i...

Look who’s back!!! By *very* popular demand, my sister and best friend Jessica Iovine is back on the pod and ready to call me out. Our favorite therapist (and big sister) offered some very insightful advice… while I offered some very questionable advice… while Catherine played referee. We sat in the shit together and compared notes on everything that’s been going ~not great~ recently…   We talked...

This week I dumped all of my friendship drama into the TMAI group chat. It seems like maintaining friendships is harder than ever, so I called for an emergency meeting to discuss the main quandaries plaguing our fragile, modern relationships…   Catherine and I dissect friendship love languages and talk about the question everyone seems to be asking: “is my friend mad at me or is it just a long-dis...

Yes, I know, I’ve said it about other episodes in the past, sure, but I really mean it when I say this is one of my favorite episodes in Live From Bed history.   Catherine and I reaaaallllyyy went there. We talked about the politics of friendship when it comes to staying friends with someone your best friend hates. And what about when your best friend maintains a friendship with someone who betray...

Question for you:  How do you react when you hear your significant other is going to a strip club? Is it harmless fun or something more? Do you feel you have a full understanding of what goes on at a strip club? Or even what the rules are if they choose to pay for a private room? Where do you draw the line?   It’s a debate that has been happening for years and yet, we as the females of the world s...

I am officially in my introvert recoup era. After what feels like a month of talking to people nonstop, I’ve decided I only want to talk to you guys for the foreseeable future. AND YOUR GIRL HAS THINGS TO SAY.   In this episode, I vented to Catherine about oh-so-many things. We gave advice and shared our missteps when trying to leave a conversation that has expired. We dissected my belief of what...

At long last, I’m back from my wedding weekend and honeymoon and I missed you guys palpably.    Trust me, we’ll do a whole episode on alllll the details and drama of the wedding for those who want it but, in the meantime, Catherine and I couldn't resist and decided to give you guys the spark notes version in this episode. Plus: plenty of non-wedding-related stuff that’s been on my mind…   We discu...

Since I’m on my mini-moon and OOO, I thought we’d revisit my and Dylan’s first episode together and what was *hopefully* the least-cringey engagement announcement we could give you. I can’t wait to be back next week and tell you guys EVERYTHING about this past week!! Xo Jade   * After months of hearing me tell countless stories about him and letting me embarrass him on this show, we thought it was...

My wedding was this past weekend but, last week, BEFORE I got married Catherine and I recorded this episode to EXCLUSIVELY discuss wedding disasters and planning horror stories.    Most people think weddings are all aspirational and romantic. We see perfect families, the perfect dress, the best day of people’s lives, and what we see on Pinterest BUT if you’ve ever planned a wedding, you know the t...

We all know Heather Gay as our blunt, relatable best friend (with a mysterious black eye *eye roll*) on "Real Housewives of Salt Lake City" and as the founder of Beauty Lab & Laser (with the legendary parking lot). But some of her actual friends, family and community see her as nothing but a “Bad Mormon”.    If you watch Real Housewives of Salt Lake City you know that most of Heather’s storyli...

*TRIGGER WARNING: SEXUAL ABUSE*   This week Cheryl Burke joined us and we both did what we do best: we overshared.    Cheryl and I discussed the whirlwind that has been the last few years of her life. Between leaving Dancing With The Stars, the show she was on for 26 seasons (!!), and navigating a public divorce, fighting her ex for custody of their dog, getting sober, maintaining her sobriety, an...
