In a different kind of episode, Mary and Sara give advice to people in their 20ms, with very different approaches. Sara is more light hearted where Mary gets dark. The girls talk about cooking, dating, sex with strangers, money, forgiveness and fitting in. There is something for everyone in this episode. What advice would you give to your 22yr old self??

Back from a one week hiatus, Mary and Sara recap their time off and talk about Hilton Head Island, vacationing as a parent, rich people vs. poor people, Mary's new found fame, buying your own anniversary gift, baby fever, hey girlie texts and so much more.

***TRIGGER WARNING- SOBRIETY, RELAPSE, RECOVERY****

In some of her most candid moments yet, Mary opens up about the struggles of staying sober when the world seems like it is on fire. Sara does an amazing job being the voice of reason (what is happening???) and the two go back and forth about what should make you mad in the world, 12 step programs, healthy coping mechanisms, politics, anger issues, sobriety, recovery, relapse, discovering the Middle East is full of whole ass societies and so much more.

The girls went to a fancy, expensive, "hot people" gym and recount just exactly how Sara finally earned some respect from Mary. It only took a year and a half of living together and 5 months of podcasting, but this is a new peak in their relationship! They talk about being treated better when you have money, locker room rules around naked people, a hot woman stand off in the sauna, Mary's bad habit of correcting people, joining the Army and an Uber Share nightmare.

As always, Sara is following the latest beauty trends and got a salmon sperm facial and it dominates the conversation in this week's episode of Special Friends Podcast. Mary is rightfully confused, and learns more about salmon c*m than anyone should know. Mary goes engagement ring shopping alone, they talk diner breakfasts, brown uncle coffee shops and the 4 C's of blood diamonds vs. "farm raised" (lab grown) ones.

!!!!!SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT!!!!!! On this week's episode, Mary and Sara break down everything they've read and watched lately including, "The Substance" movie, the books, "Creedence" and "Pretty Girls" and also talk in depth about how Mary loves a well written drama that makes her cry, but Sara feels more connected to reality TV stars.

Sometimes things don't go as planned and this episode is a perfect example of that. Mary and Sara recorded an entire hour episode catching up from their weekends and as soon as the cameras went off, Sara launched an entire spiritual vs. technology debate on the couch, so the girls turned everything back on and give you this. What side do you fall on?

This episode starts hot with a fight between Mary and Sara because Mary is convinced Sara is trying to sabotage her "one big break." Mary is in the process of applying for a TV project and while they seem interested, Mary has already dreamed up every possible scenario. Turns out, Sara does the same thing, but when it comes to love and relationships. They talk about how you should like your partner, dating nice guys, and Sara's scandalous return to the dating scene.
