Friendship Through the Decades | S6E34
There's always that friend who's down for anything, whether it's grabbing a simple dinner or trying out something new. And then there's that friend who's always willing to hear you vent. They don't need to give you a solution, but they're there and that's enough. What kind of a friend are you? Have you changed as a friend now compared to your younger years?

Main Character or Background Character Energy? | S6E33
In the spirit of keeping up with the times, Dan, Kuan and Mia discussed their understanding of main character energy. To those who are chronically online, we're sure you've heard about this. Be the start of your own movie. You're in charge of creating your own story. Forge your own path. Do we think this creates an invisible pressure to be 'extra'? Is there something wrong about wanting to be a 'background character'?
