We dive into the evolution of friendships from childhood to adulthood, questioning whether our 90s connections were genuinely deep or merely convenient based on proximity. Through personal stories and listener questions, we explore how friendship dynamics shift over time and what it takes to maintain meaningful connections when they're no longer built into our daily routines.

• Examining the nature of childhood friendships and how they were largely determined by physical proximity
• Contrasting male and female friendship dynamics - girls shared everything while boys kept emotions guarded
• Discussing how "ride or die" high school friendships naturally evolve as life circumstances change
• Exploring the concept of "Frentimacy" and why we don't communicate our needs in friendships like we do in romantic relationships
• Addressing the painful experience of friendship ghosting and strategies for seeking resolution
• Sharing personal stories of schoolyard bullying and childhood betrayals that shaped our approach to relationships
• Reminiscing about 90s pop culture touchstones that once helped forge our connections
