I Need Friends
I Need Friends: A Podcast About Whatever. Sometimes serious, sometimes...not. I enjoy talking about all kinds of different things so topics will vary with each episode. Maybe you'll laugh, maybe you'll cry, perhaps you'll be infuriated. That's a risk you'll have to take, buddy. But with most episodes only around 30 minutes long, what's stopping you from having a listen? You think you'll like one of these other podcasts better? Unlikely. You gonna go hang out with people in real life? Mistake. All the friendship you need is waiting here for you.
Violet & Kelly: A Conversation with My Almost-10-Year-Old
Ah the beautiful mind of a child. What are they going to say next? Let's see what Violet has to say about cats, school, learning history, drawing, and more. Even after some heavy editing, this one is kinda chaotic, but still I think Violet did a great job for her first time! This episode is better to watch (video available on YouTube and Spotify), but if you're just listening be prepared for some long pauses throughout and hearing my dog snoring in the background.

People Will Really Just Leave Reviews on Anything
I happened to come across some Google reviews for bridges. A review on a bridge?? Why? I don't know, but people sure had a lot to say. Oh boy... Let's take a look. We also get into the ridiculous tolls in this area. Looking at reviews on Centerville Turnpike Bridge in Virginia Beach Jordan Bridge in South Norfolk Berkley Bridge in Downtown Norfolk Just why? Why go home and leave a review on a bridge? Thanks for listening to I Need Friends!

Seducing and Scheming: The Marriago of Figaro
We've all heard of it, but have you ever seen the opera? Let's talk about all the silly shenanigans that happen in the 4 acts of The Marriage of Figaro. Spoiler alert! I will be giving away the ending to this centuries-old story. Watch The Marriage of Figaro performed in 1994 at the beautiful Glyndebourne Festival Opera with conductor Bernard Haitink. I strongly suggest reading more about Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais, Lorenzo da Ponte, and even Mozart. You won't be disappointed. Thanks for listening to I Need Friends - a podcast  about whatever. I love feedback and comments from listeners! Check here for all my links.
