We are once again joined by our friend Adeline, who challenges us to a game of increasingly vulnerable questions. Along the way, we discuss life transitions, accountability, and practice how to say no. Enjoy!

The game we played was the Friendship Edition of We’re Not Really Strangers. They aren’t a paid sponsor, we just love an excuse to make one another uncomfortable.

We are joined by friends and past guests Adeline (AKA Adie) and j’naii to celebrate Pickles and Vodka’s 200th episode! Topics include airport anxiety, setting unpleasant boundaries, being vulnerable on the internet, and the gift of online friendships. Plus, we share listener voicemails, eat biscuits from across the pond, and receive the best gift we’ve ever gotten on this show. Enjoy!
