About this listen

Since they became best friends in fifth grade they've stayed connected through a unique sense of humor heavily fueled by Dr. Katz, David Letterman, SNL, O.J. Simpson jokes, Norm MacDonald and The State and what sneakers are thinking. Since their band didn't take off in high school, they got married and had kids, and work day jobs to pay the bills they figured it was time to join everyone else and start a podcast. Why We Are Friends is a nostalgia podcast that captures hilarious memories of their past in what shaped a great friendship and interviews with other friends - new and old.Why We Are Friends Podcast
