Episode 20: Friendship

For the last episode of Season 1, we are chatting today about friendship and how this has been both the greatest gift and the biggest support to our sobriety for both of us, Thank you so much to all our lovely listeners for being with us over the past 40 weeks, we've loved every minute and we're so much looking forward to coming back for Season 2 (get us!) in the autumn.
