Intimacy that leads to life-long bonds of partnering and parenting takes a disproportionate space in our cultural understanding of love. In “This is Why I love You”, Danielle and Ahoo explore other equally important kinds of love that bind people together. In each episode, you’ll get an intimate glimpse into life-long friendships, brief moments of deep connection, or ties created through chosen families. Join us as we explore the different ways people carry each other through life.
Check out our “wrap up” episode for Season 1 of This Is Why I Love You! Did we achieve our goal to write love letters to our friends? Have a listen to hear our thoughts. We also reflect on the themes that emerged in our conversations, address how we almost stopped the podcast mid-season, and foreshadow Season 2!
This is our final friend interview of season 1! In episode 7, we talk to Danielle’s friend Kate about the different “seasons” of their friendship, matching St Patrick’s Day outfits, and Oprah! It’s a good one friends.
In Episode 6, we have a lovely conversation with Ahoo’s friend Mary. They talk about writing together, supporting each other, and using each other’s catch phrases! BABE, it’s 100% worth listening to.
In this episode we talk with Danielle’s friend Aron about their time in grad school together, the famous people they would invite to their birthday parties, and how they would spend their lottery winnings (swipe to see the house we are hypothetically buying!). We laugh, we mush, it’s a beautiful thing and you won’t want to miss it.
Join us as we talk to Ahoo’s friend Stephanie about how their friendship got started back when they were both 18. We also talk about how they’ve remained committed to one another through life transitions and their future assisted living plans.
Un and Ahoo have been friends for almost 20 years. In episode 2, you’ll hear more about how they met, the role distance plays in their friendship, if parenthood has changed their bond, and so much more. It’s beautiful.
Scott and Danielle have been friends for almost 10 years. Join us in episode 3 to hear how they describe one another, how their friendship began, how they balance being colleagues and friends, and…you guessed it…so much more!
We kick things off in the first episode by interviewing each other. You’ll hear how we met, our favorite memories, and what we know about ourselves thanks to our friendship.
This is a podcast where we talk to our friends about our relationships and what they mean to us.
