Today we've got a GenX topic that effects us all deeply: making friends at midlife.  Weird you say? Well you may be surprised to hear that after years of doing this podcast together, Lori and I had actually NEVER MET. At least not in person. 

All that changed earlier this spring and we’re going to spill all the tea. (well, most of it). Not only did we meet (and talk and talk and talk and talk) we had dinner with 2 other new friends we made through our facebook group (and drank, and drank and drank.) So here is the question -  is there a trick to making new friends at midlife, and are those “rules” different than when you were younger? Or is it just dumb luck. Listen and find out.
