2025-12-1253 minThe G Lex PodcastI Went to a Show… and Everything Went WrongGarrett planned the perfect night out: VIP ticket, row three, dressed to kill… and the second he arrived at the University of Texas, everything unraveled.

But John Mulaney? Absolutely worth it.
If you’ve ever wondered why going out as an adult feels like navigating a maze built by a committee of morons, this diary episode will hit you right in the millennial soul.

The G Lex PodcastLove Is Blind Season 9 Finale: The Audience Got BlindsidedGarrett is back with his final thoughts on Love Is Blind Season 9. Garrett unpacks the true finale twist: the couples weren’t blindsided, we were!
From friendship-bracelet levels of codependence to “we’re soulmates” said with dead eyes, this was a season of delusion as a love language. This season had more in common with MTV’s dating show NEXT which makes you wonder…maybe love ISN’T blind.
