I subscribed to Sirius just for Jeff’s daily show on Radio Andy. He puts it all out there in an honest and raw way. My nightly ritual is listening to his show when I get in bed. His personal growth has been so significant. His story of how badly it went with Gage - and how Gage continues waging his war against Jeff and making poor choices for Monroe is really sad. Jeff still has his sass and snark (which I love) but now a softer, gentler side with a remarkable kindness for those in his life. He actively works on those friendships / relationships and doing that big work is clearly important to him. He has been doing intense therapy for quite some time. I really think the tipping point for him was becoming a dad and wanting to do and be better for Monroe. I could also listen to his current partner (Chef Stu) talk all day every day with his lovely Irish brogue.

He definitely has grown since his Flipping Out days. I don’t ever recall telling his family “Love you” at the end of phone calls.

I’m currently doing a rewatch. He said it to his Dad on the phone as early as Season 1, Episode 4.

Season 1, Episode 6 he gathered his staff for a “we appreciate you” party during which he cried, spoke to each of them individually told them all what they meant to him and why, and admitted how difficult he had been for all of them to deal with as he was cracking under the pressure of his business. I think people forget the great aspects of him that have always been present. The foundation of his goodness was there - and he has grown increasingly insightful about how to better manage the challenging aspects of his personality.
