Episode Details

Happy Friday Mosquitoes & Mossies!

In honour of our real life besties NEVER listening to our advice, we started this ep off with a lil bit of healing by way of giving advice to our bollywood besties who we believe had gone down the wrong path. Criminal guys and gals seem to be the flavour of the season when it comes to falling in love, and MOS does not approve.

By popular demand we are back with an episode on the futility of advising your girl besties, broken female friendships, bury-the-body friends, and the myth that is a mature friendship breakup.

Naina and Sakshi debate the difference between supporting your friends and enabling them, with a humble request from Sakshi to do some enabling when it comes to Meerut pronunciations. We also discussed whether our parent's generation did friendship better, Naina tried to start a pen pal community, and Sakshi requested that you remember that this is a comedy podcast - so have some pity on a bin-byaahi beti.

Finally, we unpacked a few stories from MOS listeners who experienced some insane girl besties, and took a moment of silence for the mom friend of the group (hug your nearest mom friend, give them a day off, pls).

Bonus: Exam szn got Sakshi feeling nostalgic and she gave us a mini-recap of a gadhyasankalan short story that has traumatized many an ICSE student.
