We answer questions about friendship from the popular Internet Web Sites Buzzfeed and Hello Giggles. Join us as we ponder what felonies friends should commit for each other, how involved you should be about your friends' significant others, and deepen our own friendship by asking each other such intimate questions as "if you were a cake, which cake would you be?"

Theme music: Disco Sheik by Podington Bear

Additional music by BoxCat Games

This week we took a look at some surprising historical friendships (did you know Helen Keller and Alexander Graham Bell were buds?), the differences in friendship values between North America and West Africa, and in a new segment called Imaginary Friends, we chatted about historical or pop culture figures who we would want to have as friends. You know, in that hypothetical other universe where you can just hang out with Thomas Edison if you want. Thank you to Podington Bear for the use of our theme song, Disco Shiek. We also discussed the following article by G. Adams and V. Plaut: The cultural grounding of personal relationship: Friendship in North American and West African worlds. Personal Relationships, 10(3), 333-347. https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Glenn_Adams/publication/7762002_The_Cultural_Grounding_of_Personal_Relationship_Enemyship_in_North_American_and_West_African_Worlds/links/02e7e517e88fd794d1000000/The-Cultural-Grounding-of-Personal-Relationship-Enemyship-in-North-American-and-West-African-Worlds.pdf
