In this engaging episode of Half Century Hangout, we explore the intrinsic value of friendships and how they shape our mental and physical health. From emotional support to shared experiences, friendships are at the core of who we are, but as adults, we often find ourselves reconsidering what truly defines a friend. 

Join us as we investigate statistics suggesting that proximity is crucial to forming lasting connections. Can you believe it takes about 50 hours to become casual friends and 90 hours to start calling someone a true friend? Together, we reflect on today’s challenging landscape for building friendships, especially in the age of social media, and what that means for our connections. 

As we navigate through personal anecdotes, listener feedback, and contemporary issues, we emphasize how maintaining a rich social life can significantly improve our overall well-being. This episode encourages meaningful discussions, providing insights into the complexities of friendship in today's fast-paced world. We invite you to share your experiences and thoughts with us as we keep our conversation alive.
