  • Can we just be BFFs

    This podcast makes me feel like I’m not crazy or mean. Eve and Sheridan talk about stuff most people avoid and somehow make it funny and stuff I’ve thought about being an NPE and then felt bad about. I’ve replayed a few parts because Sheridan says things that actually stick with you. Would love to find a therapist like one of them.
