S14. Episode 2: Making and Maintaining Friendships as an Adult

  1. S14. Episode 2: Making and Maintaining Friendships as an Adult Corey Seemiller and Tracy Wood 59:50

As an adult, making friends can be tricky. We don’t have the school yard or neighborhood filled with kids our age like we did when we were younger. Thus, we must be more inventive. Tune in as Corey and Tracy talk through a variety of options for making friends, like the Bumble BFF friendship app, Meetup.com, or even ChatGPT which can produce a curated list of events, classes, and social groups from AI, Meetup.com, or classes and local community groups. And, if you are wondering about Tracy’s incessant fear of her Alexa taking on an embodied form and ultimately killing her or Corey’s roller skating hobby as a kid that led her to her best friend, check no further than this episode.
