Influencers, Threesomes and Narcissism w/ Jenny Mollen

Listen Now

Jenny Mollen is the author of City of Likes, a fictional comedy about mommy influencer culture and the intensity of female friendships – especially when one of them is a narcissist. Are they obsessed with each other? Do they want to have sex with each other? And what do you do when someone’s perfectly-curated facade finally cracks?

Jenny and I met years ago, and I know you’ll love her just as much as I do. Besides being a bestselling author, she’s also an actor, host of the hilarious “Third Wheel with Jenny Mollen” podcast, a mom, and wife to actor Jason Biggs. In this episode, she talks about the personal experiences with social media that inspired her book, why she wants to see a sex therapist, and helps me answer your sex and relationship questions. For example, if you’re in a relationship, is it ok to comment on someone else’s Instagram telling them how attractive they are? Jenny and I give it to you straight.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • How to navigate the tricky relationship dynamics of long-term partnerships and social media.
  • Why laughter and authenticity are key to maintaining intimacy over the years.
  • The surprising connections between personal vulnerability, desire, and self-discovery.
