Chapter 1: What are the biggest red flags in relationships?

Chapter 2: Why is Valentine's Day considered overrated?

Chapter 3: What does a 'Galentine' mean?

101.461 - 114.993 Jennifer Welch

So a Galentine is where you get your girlfriend, non-lesbian, non... Romantic. Scissoring. Non-scissoring. Okay. Girl... Platonic. So we could be Galentine's.

0

115.293 - 119.995 Angie "Pumps" Sullivan

Yes, we could have Galentines. We could make dinner reservations. I could send you flowers from your Galentine.

0

120.015 - 145.362 Jennifer Welch

If you ever, I swear, we cannot have that friendship. No, no. I cannot have any part of any sort of Galentine. Furthermore, I think if as a couple, you put this huge, huge, huge, huge, huge emphasis on something like Valentine's Day or an anniversary... There is a performative nature to that.

0

145.603 - 165.567 Jennifer Welch

There is the day in, day out that is so much more important, that means so much more, that's so much more stabilizing for a relationship. I think like the overdoing of anniversaries and the overdoing of Valentine's Day to me is a red flag that that relationship's gonna end. Here's how I rank it.

0

165.947 - 190.268 Angie "Pumps" Sullivan

I think that the biggest red flag in a marriage, I mean, the biggest bar none is a vow renewal. I think that's number one. I know immediately within five years, you're going to be divorced. It's not even close. Bad shit has happened. I love this list. You're trying to overcompensate, do a do-over. Rearrange the deck chairs on the Titanic. And I've done it.

190.288 - 195.572 Angie "Pumps" Sullivan

I mean, not the renewal, but the deck chair. Let's get on to number two. Two is a big, huge production at Valentine's Day.

195.712 - 222.441 Jennifer Welch

Wait, wait, wait. Is the Valentine production or a tattoo? Number two. Oh, you know, I haven't thought about a tattoo. Kylie, start writing all this stuff down. Number one, vow renewal. Number two, is it... Like the name or like the ring? Like your anniversary date or some reference to one another. Some reference that you're tattooing your relationship with this other person on your body.

223.161 - 227.505 Jennifer Welch

I think that goes as number two over the Valentine's Day. The tattoo. Okay.

228.666 - 237.813 Angie "Pumps" Sullivan

See, it's hard for me to judge that because I'm so out of the tattoo sphere. Like I have commitment issues to begin with. So there's no fucking way I could commit to a tattoo forever.

Chapter 4: What are the implications of vow renewals in relationships?

263.213 - 272.642 Angie "Pumps" Sullivan

I'm putting tattoos at number two. If we put like, you're putting it like on your ass, like Josh's ass only, something like that. Like that's a huge overview.

0

272.702 - 289.218 Jennifer Welch

Let me just say this. Narrow it for me. If I walked in here tomorrow and I put JTW, Josh's initials, if I had them tattooed on my body, what would you think?

0

290.96 - 292.863 Angie "Pumps" Sullivan

I think that that ship's sinking.

0

293.894 - 314.573 Jennifer Welch

I would because I would just be like, why now? All right. What's happening now? Let me ask you this. So Valentine's Day is coming up and I say, oh, I'm really going to get Josh a really good gift. And I've made reservations for Valentine's this year. Which one do you consider more dire? The tattoo with Josh's initials or the all chips in on Valentine's Day?

0

314.693 - 315.934 Angie "Pumps" Sullivan

Well, now you've backed me into a corner.

316.434 - 318.295 Jennifer Welch

Answer it. Of course it would be the tattoo.

318.395 - 338.652 Angie "Pumps" Sullivan

If you just strolled in here with the new Josh Welch tattoo somewhere on your body, I would be like, something is wrong. Let's get to our list. Number one. Number one is the vow renewal. Number two, tattoos. Tattoos. Number three. Situationally. Number three. A big, huge production at Valentine's. Now, I'm not talking about a nice gift. I think everybody should get a nice gift.

Chapter 5: How do tattoos relate to relationship commitments?

339.232 - 358.797 Angie "Pumps" Sullivan

But I'm talking about, you know, we're planning a trip for Valentine's Day. We're going on a, you know, a trip, a party, an overproduction at dinner. Those things tell me, oh, okay, something to go up higher on the list, maybe even higher than the Valentine's Day production.

0

359.457 - 373.925 Angie "Pumps" Sullivan

The communicating on the internet, like a post, like if I open up my phone on February 14th and there is a three paragraph ode to Josh Welch and how wonderful he is and how much you love him, I immediately know something's up.

0

374.205 - 379.908 Jennifer Welch

I immediately know. I agree. I think that is right up there splitting hairs with Val Renewal.

0

382.634 - 386.976 Angie "Pumps" Sullivan

See, I'm just gonna always give the vow renewal the edge because I just- Vow renewal gets the edge.

0

387.016 - 415.562 Jennifer Welch

It's got to. Number two would be the over effusive, I love my man, I love my woman Valentine's Day post that you post for everybody to see. Number three, tattoo. Number four, over celebrating Valentine's Day slash anniversary. Let's say this, let's say it's your sixth year anniversary. Number one, that's not that big of an accomplishment. Right. Number two, six isn't that great of a number.

423.108 - 423.088 Corey

25?

423.368 - 448.947 Jennifer Welch

Sure. I'm down. Eight? Shut the fuck up. Yeah. Nobody wants to hear that. Nobody cares. All right. Let me tell you what I've had it with. What? Christian talk. Like a TikTok for Christians? There's this whole algorithm. All these stupid white evangelical Christians that do all this stupid shit on the internet. And people know how much it irritates me. Right.

448.967 - 472.234 Jennifer Welch

And I'm talking about Kylie and I'm talking about our other producer, Seth. They know how much this shit irritates me. I'm also talking about all the cult members in Patreon. Right. They send me this shit. They DM it to me and I take the bait and I open it. And then when I go to my page that not like the people I follow, but the curated little page that Instagram does for you. Yes.

472.274 - 495.617 Jennifer Welch

With a little magnifying glass. I like for it to have travel, French Bulldogs, interior design, and tennis. That's it. I start seeing this peeping in of evangelical mega church bullshit Christianity on there. And I have had it for fuck's sake. If you believe in all that shit, swing for the fences. I don't give a shit. I don't want to see it. Quit trying to recruit people.

Chapter 6: What is the impact of social media on relationships?

584.908 - 605.978 Jennifer Welch

You should be smoking some weed, you should, I mean, 80% of your life, you should do the right thing. But that 20%, those bad choices you make, make those. That's a part of growth, right? That's a part of learning. That's a part of self discovery. The fact that these morons Get on the internet and talk about saving themselves and saving their virginity.

0

606.618 - 631.954 Jennifer Welch

It's such a disservice to every single human being on this earth. And I just cannot stand that content. I can't stand that culture. I hate megachurch culture. Evangelical Christianity is a cult. It drives me fucking bananas. The architecture, I just want to remind everybody, is some of the worst this country has to offer. The pastors... are so fake and so gross.

0

632.095 - 649.473 Jennifer Welch

I'm looking at you, Craig Groeschel of Life.Church. It is disgusting. And I think it's such a grift. And I think it ruins so many people. And then on the other side of it, they have to go to all of this therapy to get deprogrammed. And I've just had it up to my eyeballs with the evangelical Christian movement.

0

650.494 - 672.885 Angie "Pumps" Sullivan

I cannot disagree with anything you just said. The only thing that I take slight issue with is it is galling to me that these churches that have been grifting and bilking people for years and years and years, who by all accounts, when you look at net worth of Mormons, Catholics, Southern, you know, whatever you want to look at, if it's disclosed, it is an astronomical amount of money.

0

673.466 - 685.112 Angie "Pumps" Sullivan

So for them to be bitching about not getting new money... Why don't you spend some of the money you've been collecting for the last 50 years? I mean, it just, it goes all through with your tax exempt status.

685.292 - 712.972 Jennifer Welch

It is such a racket. And I am so grateful that people are finally waking up to what a racket evangelical Christianity is. It is a pyramid scheme. It is a grift of the highest of high orders. And the people that subscribe to this faith think that they have Christian exceptionalism, that God favors them over other people. They tend to be homophobic, racist, pieces of shit Trumpers.

713.272 - 734.195 Jennifer Welch

And I've had it up to my eyeballs. And let me tell you something, listener. I'm going to keep bringing that energy in 2025 in Trump's America. That brings me to, well, first of all, welcome to I've Had It. I'm Jennifer. I'm Angie. We received something in the mail. First of all, I just want to say we receive a lot of stuff in the mail. A lot of you take the time to send us cards and gifts.

734.255 - 753.539 Jennifer Welch

And I just want all of you to know that we receive them and we love them and we have them in the studio. And it means so much because as we speak into these microphones, sometimes we think, hello, hello, is this thing on? Is anybody there? Are you listening? And to know that you took time out of your day to send us something special means the world.

753.599 - 768.288 Jennifer Welch

But we received something that I think is incredibly important with a letter that I'm going to read for everybody now. It says, hello, Jennifer, Pumps, and Kylie. I've been a diehard listener of I've Had It and IHIP News for a long time now. I love the podcast.

Chapter 7: Why is evangelical Christianity criticized in this episode?

768.828 - 792.199 Jennifer Welch

I'm like a rat on crack that can't get enough of your fuck you raining and raving over all grievances, petty, massive, and everything in between. I especially enjoy Jennifer's absolute rage rants against all Republican titty babies. Nothing brings me more joy than when you call out Trump, President Musk, Moses Mike, and the entire clown car of right-wing assholes and ass kissers.

0

792.679 - 813.664 Jennifer Welch

You have a true gift for articulating so well the deep corruption and jet stream of bullshit spews by the right. I listen with complete rapt attention every time you speak. It just blows my mind that half of the electorate voted for a dumb as fuck, pathological liar, rapist, convicted felon, insurrectionist with a teeny weeny diseased brain and bad hair and makeup.

0

813.784 - 826.653 Jennifer Welch

Your podcast will definitely help me get through the next four years of the fucking crazy shit show coming our way. Like pumps, I am a 50-something single chick that has not had sex in well over 9,000 days.

0

827.074 - 829.677 Angie "Pumps" Sullivan

Oh, wow. So I have a – I knew I liked her.

0

830.501 - 849.205 Jennifer Welch

Only difference is that I never married or had kids. So my life is completely unfettered. I have my freedom, autonomy and independence and pumps. I know that you now embrace that too. You're an inspiration to the tribe of mature single ladies with cobwebs between their meat curtains. Thanks for representing us and keeping up the good work.

849.845 - 873.114 Jennifer Welch

I'm an amateur artist and was inspired to create this painting for you that depicts my interpretation of the blue wing talk. That's our bird. We have a mascot. The blue winged hog. I think that my version of this majestic creature captures the true essence of the patriots, gaitriots, and theytriots that make up the IHIP realm. I hope you like it. I had so much fun painting it.

873.475 - 879.818 Jennifer Welch

Keep on fighting the good fight. I will be here listening, ranting, raving, laughing, and crying with you every day. Thank you.

879.838 - 883.079 Kylie

Caw, caw, caw, caw, caw, caw, caw.

885.844 - 894.41 Jennifer Welch

Alyssa. Love that. What a great letter. For our YouTube viewers, you can see now the Blue Winged Hawk. This is our bird.

Chapter 8: What listener grievances are shared in this episode?

1613.881 - 1633.074 Jennifer Welch

I mean, honestly, out of all the shit that I hear that people do. That doesn't alarm me that much because we've talked about people listening to shit on their speaker, all this stuff. Some of that to me is just par for the course in Trump's America, but it takes a lot to shock me these days. You're shockproof.

0

1633.234 - 1636.716 Kylie

Uh-huh. Okay, up next we've got Cutter.

0

1637.725 - 1662.919 Unknown

Hello, Jennifer and Pumps. My name is Cutter, like the scissors. I have had it with people bringing in their 98 year old parents into restaurants. They don't need to leave bed. They're too old. You know that. They come in. I'm like ready to take everyone's order. They're like, dad, have you looked at that menu yet? Dad, do you know what you're getting? He's not even conscious.

0

1662.959 - 1681.836 Unknown

He literally can't answer. He's not conscious. I'm like, okay, well, while you figure out how to speak with the dead, I'm going to go check on my other tables. Be right back. Like, what are we doing? Then finally they get him to respond. And he's like, gumbo. And I'm like, would you like a cup or a bowl, sir? Is he talking to me? I'm giving you a cup. Like, fuck you. I'm not doing this.

0

1681.856 - 1686.046 Unknown

I'm not doing any of this. Good luck. I hope he likes it. Bye. Anyway, I'm out of here.

1688.39 - 1710.911 Angie "Pumps" Sullivan

That's another thankless job that has to deal with the general public is a white person. Oh. I mean, this is the worst. We've been it. It's the worst. But this is interesting that Ketter brings this up right now because I just got back from a trip and I'm in the airport and I see these 700-year-old people that have 27 hearing aids, 45 walkers attached to a wheelchair.

1712.608 - 1733.496 Angie "Pumps" Sullivan

I'm guessing like old as fuck. And I just turned to my kids and said, guys, when I am in that state, don't take me anywhere. Don't take me to the airport. Don't take me to a restaurant. Just leave me at home. There's nowhere I want to go in that state of affairs. So that's funny that it happened. We got that voicemail today.

1734.236 - 1757.343 Jennifer Welch

Yeah, you know, I mean, people are living longer and longer. And it's, you know, we get to where... You know, everybody's been the asshole toddler. Right. And something we don't really talk about a lot is there's asshole old people. A lot. And oftentimes they're rude, not nice. And they've had it. And they've earned the right to be cranky. I get it.

1758.043 - 1766.85 Jennifer Welch

But, you know, it's kind of like for me personally, I don't really want to be around people at the beginning of their lives or at the end. Right. There's a sweet spot.
