ever found out you weren't in your best friend's wedding the same way her dentist found out? from the grid? and then LIKED the post?? babe.

ep 52 is bestie breakups vol. 3 — the language edition. lose a boyfriend and everyone shows up: the wine, the playlist, somebody covers your shift. lose a best friend of fifteen years and… nothing. not even a word for what she is now. so we wrote the dictionary ourselves: the group chat graveyard (a gif from october, sitting there like a tombstone). the gift-shop friendship (two women exchanging thumbs up across the void). the friend who disappeared and the apology she's been drafting for three years. and seven robes on the grid, none of them hers.

send me your friendship breakups: ihearyoubabepod@gmail.com. everything's anonymous, always.

ep 51 is the mental gymnastics episode — the full olympic floor routine your brain runs to make his behavior make sense. this week: a situationship texts "happy birthday" and she convenes a four-person panel about it (the committee was compromised. the committee wanted to believe). a man who's "just bad at texting" posts his lunch AND an introvert meme mid-ignore (the irony). a girlie builds her boyfriend an alibi — in heels, at her own award night — and nearly loses it at the cheese table. a 1am google doc with sections, built to prove the red flags don't apply to her situation (babe, you gave your denial a header). and a nine-years closer about how loud the defending was, and how quiet it gets after.

next week: friendship breakups. there's no language for them, so we're writing it. send yours: ihearyoubabepod@gmail.com

fifty. FIFTY episodes. who let me. (nobody. that's the problem.)

so for the milestone i did the one thing you should never do — i listened to episode one on the bus. it sounds like i recorded it in a tin can at the bottom of a pool during a thunderstorm and at one point i call a situationship "a journey." i had to pause it. a man looked at me.

but it cracked something open, so episode 50 is a REUNION. no new emails. i tracked down the legends and asked them all one question: where are you now. the long test drive who bought a car (a good one). the woman who decorated the red flag and finally took the good knives. the bestie breakup that became a museum. the one who went dark and came back to say "i made it out. hi." the marriage saved at the dishwasher. and the closer that wrecked me — my very FIRST email, episode one, still here, still listening.

plus: a lightning round, a little hall of fame, my Chelsea Piers gym membership (i'm not a member, i'm a top-tier donor), and the impulse control of a raccoon. i'm in my cunt era. sorry not sorry.

you built this show. there's no episode without the inbox. so this one's for you.

🍕 next week: “damned if you do, damned if you don’t” — the mental gymnastics episode. every story you tell yourself to stay, every no-win trap. follow so it hits your feed monday.
