The Crisis Queen! We are joined by the wonderful Helen Bauer (Trusty Hogs, Helen's Log). We sat Helen down to discuss the high-stakes world of international friendship, why she is a "smash in emergency" friend, and how she once propositioned our host in a school cafeteria.

More from Fwends
Look, George is hungover and the fella's have had a couple wines. It's one of those varied topics ones. Troye Sivan gets one other two mentions, Rhys presents an airtight environmental theory on why childless adults are permitted to strangle turtles, and Kyran takes a plasterboard saw to the bedroom ceiling. But the main take away is...THE BURNER PHONE IS BACK! it's FWENDS!
It's Only Fwends! Every fortnight, between interviews, we thwee Fwends have a little natter. This week we discuss Georgia's trip to the Maldives, Rhys's stained glass, and to be honest, really rather a lot about sharks. But don't let that scare you, it's Fwends!
It's the Season 10 finale of Fwends! (we'll be back next week). This week we're closing strong with the bestest of the bestest, Sarah Keyworth! AKA Baby Keys, AKAJingle Jangles! Wowsas, guys, it's one of those ones. One of those special ones. From childhood friendships forged across garden fences, to funny business in Sherwood Forest. Sarah oh so generously shares beautiful memories of their late mum, and what it means when friends step up to become chosen family. Boy howdy. It's Fwends!
It's Only Fwends! One of those ones where we thwee Fwends have a little natter. In this episode, Kyran’s dad accidentally holidays in the spiritual home of French protests, the gang dives into the logistics of having sex with a bridge, Georgia prepares to play a gig for 50 rich people on a homophobic island and Rhys also reflects on being a cog (and the People's Princess) on The Traitors. It's Fwends!
This week on Fwends, we’re joined by the infuriatingly hilarious and multi talented Lizzy Hoo! From being the "honest friend", to playing trumpet scales on a first date, Lizzy breaks down the key friendships that shaped her life. We talk about cold-calling preschool friends out of the phone book, trading cookies for coffee during her hospitality days, and her 20-year-old high school crew who run a gambling ring. It's Fwends! See Lizzy Live and listen to her pod!! https://linktr.ee/lizzyhoo
