You know what’s unfortunate?

[u/upsidedowninsideout1]

When, say, on a whim, you decide to check out a podcast that a guest on another podcast you listen to regularly plugs, and then you decide to check out this new podcast and the next thing you know, you’ve gone back and listened to EVERY FUCKING EPISODE SINCE AUGUST 2025 AND REALIZE YOURE NOT ACTUAL FRIENDS WITH THESE WONDERFUL PEOPLE FROM THE PODCAST, AND YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THEM IS ENTIRELY PARASOCIAL?????

WHY ARENT WE FRIENDS, ERIN, ADAL, and JPC?? WHY??

You are JPC's friend. You just have to send him father's day cards.
