Season 2
Episode 3
Published 1 year, 1 month ago
Description
We all have that one friend who tells it like it is—but when does “keeping it real” turn into straight-up toxic energy? In this episode, Russell and Paul take a deep dive into the fine line between tough love and toxic friendships. From backhanded compliments to full-on frenemy behavior, they explore how queer friendships can sometimes be the best… and the absolute worst.
They’ll unpack personal experiences, red flags to look out for, and when to cut the cord on a friendship that’s doing more harm than good. Plus, a few anonymous listener stories will leave you shook at what some people have endured in the name of "friendship!"
