Hello, welcome. Pull up a chair, grab your wine. You are listening to the Close Friends

podcast where we hit record on our in real life conversations as friends, trying to have a good time,

but also be adults. This week,'m your host Sarah and I'm joined

as ever by the wonderful Lucy. Hello. And Tara. Hey. And Shirley, who I've forgotten and I need

to go and get now. So short interview, chat among yourselves. Are you telling me that you don't

want a fake snake wrapped around your neck

for the recording of this, Sarah? She's going to poison you. She's going to eat you because that was

really offensive. Mate, Shirley says she's got my back. Don't worry. She also says it looks a lot

better when I'm delivering these hard hitting points when she's wrapped around my neck. Makes them a lot more.

I mean, that is right.

Yeah, there you go.

Excellent.

Who has our close friend of the week?

Lucy, I hear rumours it might be you.

It's me.

It's me.

Freshly sourced from Apple Podcasts.

The title of this is Top Girls, Top Chats, and it's by Kate in Leam.

A wonderful close friend told me to listen to this podcast, bracket, shout out to Beggy, shout out Beggy.

And now I'm completely hooked.

It's literally like being in a room with my best mates to the point where I actually find myself replying to them as I listen.

I look forward to every episode, Much Love Girls, X-O-X-X-O-Gossip Girl.
