Good Grief - Catherine Mcaffertty and Ruthie Holmes
Acting class besties Ruthie and Catherine discuss friendship and the support it brings during the hardest times in life (death and breakups.) Plus, an unplanned crash course on how to be a good friend when someone you care about is grieving.

Bunkmates - Krystal Adams and Dolce Wong
Probably the episode with the highest LPM (laughs per minute). Best friends and former bunk bed roommates Krystal Adams and Dolce Wang recall late night sociology experiments, bestie rights of passage, and inside jokes so old they can’t remember the origin.

Castle Companions - Jen Saunderson and Jenny Zegrino
The only episode of this podcast to reference the Yakuza so far. Have a laugh and add a new fancy word to your vocabulary with hilarious and well-traveled best friends, Jenny Zegrino and Jen Saunderson. Oh, and Jen isn’t trying to sleep with any of you, so relax.

Glamour Girls - Jasmine Ellis and Ari Kirk
This episode felt like an audio brunch. I electronically met up with comedian Jasmine Ellis and her best friend, relentless supporter, and professional podcast guest, Ari Kirk. Listen to us discuss the evolution of friendship through motherhood, what it feels like to really be supported when you’re “sensitive”, and how Ari’s daughter is in fact Jasmine reincarnated.

Accidental Best Friends - Katrina Davis & Bri Pruett
Bri’s real best friend had a technical compatibility issue (you are loved Alex!), so we accidentally recorded an episode where we talk about how we became friends. This episode is basically a mini version of you getting to smoke with us in the park while Bri hula hoops.

Instant Love - Neel Ghosh & Jonas Presendieu
I had to use backup audio for this one, but it was too good to scrap. I sat down with best friends Neel Ghosh and Jonas Presendieu to chat about changes in comedy, the headshot horrors of Los Angeles, and why it’s important to have friends that will tell you that your shoes could be better.

Best Buds - Jess Singer & Jenn Scott
“It’s weeeeeeeed!” I sat down for a gigglefest friendship chat with Jess Singer and Jenn Scott. There’s shameless Mark Duplass plugs, a vent session about movie theatre etiquette, and BFF quiz round. Don’t be a Jim. Listen to this episode.

Growing Pains - Becky Lynn Blanca & Italia Salvaje
This is Italia’s first podcast ever! I talk to these band-loving buds about forgiveness, being your best friends’ #1 fan, and not being afraid to go for it, whatever “it” is. Please enjoy our hilarious tangent on scare attempts, Italia’s lingering God complex, and a little insight into what it’s like to come full circle in a friendship and have each other’s backs as adults. Oh, and fun fact: Captain Hook is real.

The Odd Couple - Amy Silverberg & Danny Palumbo
This one is for the Android users. This fun and funny episode with best friends Amy Silverberg and Danny Palumbo includes overly generous strip club etiquette, great tips for crying in public, and highlights the special bond of a friend that respects your right to “Irish Goodbye” (or maybe not show up at all.)

FRIEND15 - Kari Assad & Mara De La Rosa
This episode has a lesson in rolling your r’s, an Amber alert, and some good insight on what it looks like to support a queer best friend. Also the aftermath of “breaking up” as friends and a great game idea for when you’re having a bad day.

Friends and the City - Ashley Bez & Kristin Manna
Writing partners and best friends in comedy Ashley Bez and Kristin Manna met each other (and me!) within the glittery walls of the New York comedy scene. Listen as we discuss the serendipitous powers of Bubba Gump Shrimp, how to support a friends’ belief in psychics, and the emerging podcast trend of adult sleepovers. Also Ashley gets into her complicated relationship with ghosts, Kristin airs some grievances about restaurant seating, and I finally get to let the world know how I feel about Facetiming.

Deep Cut Companions - James Fritz & Allen Strickland Williams
James Fritz and Allen Strickland Williams approach friendship with the understated cool of a 70s New York basement hang. We discuss their shared love of music, movies and fast food franchises of the southeast, with a special audio appearance of their shared lawn person (not a gnome.) Come for the conversation, stay to hear Allen tell the most badass Postmates story ever.

Hold on to your blanket, we're getting cozy for the first LIVE episode!

We also discuss failure, twerkshops (it’s exactly what it sounds like), and admitting when you really need help from someone you trust.

First Friends First
A quick introduction into why Katrina started this podcast in the first place. I tried not to give away too much, but my friends are crazy fun and may or may not be able to read minds, so I'd keep listening if I were you.
