This week on Being Social, we’re diving into childhood friendships — the first friends we remember, growing up shy, middle school memories, and the friendships that shaped (or broke) us.

We talk built-in best friends, friendship breakups, drifting apart, sleepovers, yearbook nostalgia, and what media taught us about friendship growing up.

Plus, we review Yesteryear — covering trad wife culture, isolation, motherhood, and why the main character needed friends more than anything.

Question of the week: Do you still talk to any childhood friends, and what would you tell your younger self about friendship?
