In this episode

This week we got nostalgic (remember post secret?!), got into our feelings about group chats, and somehow ended up more connected than ever.

What we got into

💌 How our parents actually did it. A time before dinners and drinks were normal. We genuinely cannot.

📱 Group chats: gift, curse, or chaotic neutral? We present the evidence. You decide.

🛋️ The great in-person vs. virtual debate. Bracey makes her case and Anna’s opinion does NOT survive the episode intact.

📸 Instagram, TikTok, and the strange intimacy of watching someone’s life on a 6-second loop.

💬 GChat nostalgia hours. A moment of silence for the away message era.

📞 Phone calls, texts, video chats — what each one actually says about how much you care.

Tell us how you keep in touch

Are you a voice memo person? (If so, please voice memo Bracey) A meme-as-love-language person? A “sorry I’m bad at texting” person who’s actually great at texting certain people? We want to know. Email [email protected] or leave a comment on Substack with the whole thing — no judgment, only curiosity.
