Aysha Welch & Sarah Menzel Share Killer Stories | Pod Friends

This week on Pod Friends, Matt Scott (@MattScottGW) sits down with Aysha Welch (@ayshalikeasia) and Sarah Menzel (@shearedbysarah) for a heartfelt conversation about Survivor, queer identity, grief, relationships, podcasting, and the surprising stories people carry with them.

Aysha reflects on her Survivor 47 experience, the emotional aftermath of leaving the game, and the lessons she’s learned about resilience, community, and moving forward. Sarah shares her journey from scientist to barber, the unexpected connections she’s built behind the chair, and one unforgettable story involving a client she later learned was a murderer.

Together, Aysha and Sarah open up about building a life together, launching their podcast Life Bi Us, finding joy through travel, sports, fitness, and queer community, and the ways they’ve supported each other through life’s biggest challenges and transitions.

If you’ve ever wondered how to find joy after disappointment, build meaningful community, or navigate life’s twists and turns with humor and heart, this episode is for you.
