”Now That We’re Friends” is an arts advice podcast where, instead of DEAR ABBY, three friends offer specially curated “mix tapes” of music, art, tv shows, poems, and more, to suit your mood and help you navigate an issue.
Where can Daniel find an artistic community without paying for one?
That's a wrap on National Poetry Month 2022! And a wrap on this special series of the pod! But we'll be back. Maybe for National Hot Dog Month (July) or Banana Pudding Lovers Month (November). Hopefully sooner!
But in this final April 2022 episode, we talk MFA programs. Are they a necessity when trying to build an artistic community? Can our new friend Daniel find like-minded folks to collaborate with in a less conventional (and less expensive) environment? We hope so, cause he's our friend and we CARE about him!

Can Vicky have an adult relationship with her parents?
We all struggle to have that perfect parent/child relationship that the Kardashian/Jenners have. But sometimes it's harder than being born into wealth. It can often mean work, and no one wants to work these days... We don't know why there's been three digs at America's first family in this episode description, especially given they're not mentioned once in this episode or even alluded to. Anyway, Vicky wants help forming an adult relationship with her parentals and boy have we got ideas, both from our brains and from our recommendations. Enjoy this episode (possibly with a tissue nearby) and enjoy the occasional keyboard clicks Lisann didn't edit out because she doesn't want to work
