Our Epidemic of Loneliness: Why Adult Friendships Feel Like Hard Work

Season 5
1h 16m | Jan 29, 2024

Nearly 1 in 3 adults feel lonely. It's no wonder when social media has taken over our lives and we've spent the last several years in isolation from a worldwide pandemic. As we get older and our schedules get busier, it can often feel like we have to remember to schedule friends and fun in the mix.

What happened to the joy of just hanging out? Where have third places gone? Has social media replaced physical third places? Does social media make for lazy friendships? Why does hanging out with a friend have to cost so much money? Are we only ever recapping our lives or are we actually creating new memories with our friends? We're tackling all of this and more in today's episode!
