The Power of Female Friendship

Dear Media
About this episode

It’s our 5-year anniversary episode (!!!) and we’re covering a lot of ground – sharing what we’ve learned over the last half-decade, gushing over our audience, and answering the questions you have about past hookups, our LA move, best/worst/drunkest guests, and much more (YES we are finally spilling the tea on the male escort interview that never aired and why). Then we’re moving into the friendship conversation – the importance and power of the relationships we have with our girlfriends, why and how we should celebrate friends’ accomplishments other than marriages and babies, and friendship meet-cutes (with some tips for making friends). We’re also (randomly) discussing our bad behavior as kids, why we hate a traditional baby/wedding shower, Ashley’s hydration journey update, Rayna’s water quirk, and an astounding/amazing listener message about butt stuff and having kids. Hope you enjoy and THANK YOU for five wonderful years!
