About this episode

The hosts reflect on their journey as they approach the end of their podcast, revisiting a fan-favorite episode about making friends after 30.

"Nothing good ever happens after 2am" - Wise words of Ted Mosby. To be honest, recording is weighing very heavy on us as we approach the final 2 episode with the original Skirts Up hosts, Samantha and Melissa. This week just wasn't it for us. Plus the pollen is pollinating and Samantha sounds like a dying frog. With that being said, this is a flash from the past. Our SECOND episode over, "Adulting and Making friends after 30." Fun fact, this ranks #5 in the top 5 fan favorites. So for those who are new to the show, welcome! This is where is all began.
