Space For Friends episodes

  • (Un)Common Sense
    In this episode, Flin and Julien follow the thread from sports science to gender norms, gym-floor Google searches, and how a casual “it’s common sense” turns into a full-on spiral: what even is common sense, and what can or can't be seen as such, making it a friendly (and slightly heated) debate about logic, intent, reason, and why “simple” truths aren’t always so simple, or are they?
    We touch on a recent women’s football study, which might prove to be game changer (literally). We also talk about how to limit ignorance, foster curiosity, and create more space for openness and tolerance—in ourselves and the people around us. Somehow we eventually circle back to the question: how do you stop feeling judged when you’re just trying to live your life?

    Enjoy!

    P.S. We have a new Sue/Sew Gate upon us! Flin talks about 'surgeries', but uses the word 'operations' instead. No, he's not talking about business activities; it's just the German in him 😂

  • Nostalgic Anniversary
    We’re celebrating one whole year of Space For Friends (!) — looking back at where we started, what we thought this would be, and how we actually feel about it now.

    Then things get quite intergalactic as we chat about how to coexist with people from different cultures — or, you know, planets.

    This episode has a bit of everything, from sharing fun facts, falling into geography rabbit holes, and celebrating human connection, as well as diving into the beautiful chaos of nostalgia. How to let go of the past without losing what made it special, and of course, a blind ranking of oddly specific core memories. We wrap it all up with a reminder to honor your own weird, special uniqueness, while allowing others to own theirs, too.

  • Speakerman
    In this episode, Julien shares highlights from his birthday trip to London, including the experience of seeing Lana Del Rey live — right gut feelings, dreamy vibes, and everything in between.

    Meanwhile, Flin reflects on something quieter: the challenge of asking organic follow-up questions and what it really means to stay present in a conversation. He also talk about the emotional aftermath of finishing therapy — the sense of freedom, the unfinished questions, and what it means to navigate growth without that weekly anchor. 

    Finishing this episode off with a talk about tattoos, piercings, and the hesitation that comes with wanting change, but not quite being ready to make it permanent.

    Enjoy!

  • Full Circle & Friendship Quizzes
    In this episode, we witness a full-circle moment for Flin as he attends the Linkin Park concert. If you’ve been with us for a while, you’ll remember how Flin discovered his love for Linkin Park. It started with seeing them get back together on a random livestream at 3 am, and now hopefully with stories from the moshpit of their latest concert in Berlin. 

    We also put our 25-year friendship to the test with a Friendship quiz—guessing answers about each other, sharing memories, and uncovering a few surprises along the way. 

    Enjoy!

  • Small Moves, Big Shifts
    This week we get into how differently we express and process emotions, and what it means to sit with fear, anxiety, panic, or even depression, and discuss potential antidotes.

    We talk about the power in taking small things into our own hands instead of accepting everything as it is, and why being good at a broad spectrum of things might just be more freeing than being a specialist.

    Also on the table: shifting your own perception vs. trying to change the entire world. We also get to experience Flin's excitement for the upcoming Linkin Park concert, which results in a talk about the art and science of mosh pits.

    And finally, we talk movies, movie ratings, and whether they even matter, or ever did.

  • Zoom In / Zoom Out
    In this episode, we share some mindset 'hacks' for how to not constantly feel judged by others, drifting into metaphysics and the power of belief. As it weighs heavy on Flin's heart, we express some of our concerns and show solidarity with people who face any sort of discrimination.

    We also explore the idea of zooming in or out to keep a positive outlook on life even when dealing with negative people, unpack Flin’s big family gathering weekend, and ask ourselves: should we carry on (family) traditions just for the sake of it?

    And to top it all off, a fruitful conversation about how to express yourself without hurting others and when it might just be okay to be a little rude.

  • So, Is This My Responsibility?
    New week, new talks!
    Julien sounds tired as he’s running low on sleep, and we might get to hear one of the reasons why...

    But first we dive into Flin's question on how to be a good host as an adult in real life. Who’s in charge of what exactly? Should you provide food, entertainment, and everything else all by yourself, or is the experience more about collective effort? As we occasionally drift off while discussing the question at hand, we eventually end up defining some rules for us. 

    As lovely, funny, and insightful it may be, we basically just have to two overthinkers doing what they do best — overthinking.

  • Respectfully Speaking
    Kicking off with a short follow-up on last week’s AI chat, then diving into a thoughtful exchange on what it actually means to show respect in everyday interactions and the importance of having empathy.

    Plus, Flin reveals his new retro phone and shares his first impressions. Spoiler: it’s giving analog soul in a digital world...

  • Sync, Swipe, and Sign Off
    Starting off by talking mental health in the workspace, what’s missing and potential solutions.

    The occasional blind ranking lights up the mood before Flin’s starts gearing up for his big family gathering and speaks on his role in it, plus we dive into our current thoughts on AI: the hopes, the fears, and how we’re actually using it.

    Oh, and we’ve got a fresh take on digital detoxing you might want to try...

  • Billie, Balance & Beautiful Detours
    This week, we kick things off with Flin's finding his seat experience at the Billie Eilish concert—but as always, one story leads to another.

    What starts as a concert recap soon spirals into a thoughtful conversation about the different roles in the music industry: performing artists, songwriters, and producers. We unpack how each contributes to the art we love and how the spotlight doesn’t always shine equally.

    But it doesn’t stop there. We dig into a deeper question—how do we stay empathetic toward public figures without losing sight of accountability? It’s a conversation about humanity, privilege, and balance.

    And after all the Space for Friends typical detours we arrive back at the topics Julien was excited to share! Something he did the weekend and is very proud of.

    Come hang out. We saved you a seat.
