Summary — Jordan Jensen on Flagrant with Andrew Schulz & Akaash Singh
Overview
This episode features comedian Jordan Jensen as a guest on Andrew Schulz's Flagrant podcast. The conversation is wide-ranging and freewheeling: dark comedy about family and death, stories of sexualized childhood dynamics and “hot dad” jokes, drug and psychedelic experiences (bad acid trips, microdosing mushrooms, MDMA), mental-health topics (OCD, intrusive thoughts, therapy), dating/sex culture and consent, online hate, dogs/pets, touring/podcast plugs, and social commentary (gender, religion, politics). The tone is candid, confrontational, and intentionally provocative.
Key points & main takeaways
- Coping through comedy: Jordan uses shock and dark humor (including jokes about her deceased father) as a coping mechanism. She recounts performing and joking at her father’s funeral as a way to process grief.
- OCD & intrusive thoughts: Jordan and hosts discuss intrusive, gruesome OCD thoughts (e.g., harming loved ones or pets). Jordan describes how psychedelics helped her confront and reframe those fears — not as cures, but as tools that temporarily shifted perspective.
- Psychedelics:
- Microdosing vs hero doses: Jordan microdoses mushrooms regularly and has done occasional high-dose (“hero”) trips and acid. She emphasizes set/setting, preparation (therapy, playlists), and risks (dangerous Rumi-style thoughts and suicidality on a bad trip).
- MDMA (molly) experiences: described as profoundly connective and positive, but SSRIs/Prozac can blunt effects. She advocates researching and planning (therapist consultation, playlists).
- Caution: psychedelics helped but also nearly led to self-harm during a “hero dose,” underscoring risk.
- Mental-health treatment: Therapy and structured support are recommended (pod sponsors and hosts plug Talkspace). Jordan notes psychedelics helped her insight, but conventional therapy/psychiatry remain important.
- Health tip for chronic yeast infection: Jordan and others credit cutting sugar with resolving persistent yeast infections — anecdotal but offered as practical advice to consult a doctor.
- Online hate & misogyny: Female comedians face harsher, more sexualized harassment online. Jordan shares examples of abusive DMs that mix threats and unwanted sexual desire.
- Consent and intoxication: The hosts discuss complexities around consent when alcohol/drugs are involved; campus messaging that intoxication negates consent influences behavior/attitudes and raises difficult real-world scenarios.
- Dating & sex culture: Jordan offers blunt, comedic takes — “women use sex to get love; men use love to get sex” — and talks about preferring partners with traditional “blue-collar” traits. She also discusses the strong sexual entitlement some fans show at meet-and-greets.
- Rage & interpersonal conflict: Jordan recounts recurring road-rage and public altercations (punching a side mirror, slamming a man with luggage), emphasizing anger management is a personal challenge.
- Pets & animals: Lots of anecdotes about small dogs, pitbulls, animals getting into weed/edibles, and disgust for people who misuse substances around animals.
Notable quotes & insights
- “You don't have to trust yourself. You're just a compilation of everything that has ever happened to you… who you have become is somebody who doesn't throw a dog off the balcony.” — Jordan, describing a psychedelic insight for dealing with OCD-driven intrusive thoughts.
- “I was acting on the cover of some newspaper… I thought I had to die that day” — recounting a dangerous acid trip and the fragility of psychedelic experiences.
- “Women use sex to get love and men use love to get sex” — provocative adage discussed as a reflection on hookup and relationship dynamics.
- “If you have a parent, you oftentimes want to fuck them” — an intentionally shocking line used to illustrate how certain childhood attachments can later manifest in confusing ways (spoken in comedic context).

Action items / recommendations (for listeners)
- If you experience intrusive thoughts or OCD symptoms, seek professional help (therapy, psychiatry). The episode mentions Talkspace as an accessible therapy option (check your insurance/benefits).
- If you’re considering psychedelics:
- Do thorough research on set & setting, dosing, and drug interactions (especially with SSRIs).
- Consider preparatory therapy and integration work; psychedelics can be therapeutic but also risky.
- For recurrent yeast infections: consult a clinician. Anecdotal tip: reducing dietary sugar helped some speakers — discuss with your doctor before changing treatment.
- Consent reminder: avoid sex with heavily intoxicated people; be mindful about consent and power dynamics in real-world encounters.
- Comedians/fans: check tour dates and specials if interested — Jordan promoted her Netflix special and the hosts promoted their tour dates and shows.
Context & audience
- This is a raw, adult-oriented comedy interview. Many statements are intentionally provocative, nonliteral, and used for comedic effect. Some content (incest jokes, slurs, explicit sexual language) may be offensive — context is comedic and confessional.

- A sense of Jordan Jensen’s comedic style and personal backstory (grief, family dynamics, coping).
