Have you ever had a conversation with a friend and thought "that was really interesting, that could have been a podcast!" Well, that's exactly what this podcast is. I have been very lucky to cross paths, connect and nurture amazing relationships with interesting humans I am lucky to call friends. We go deep, we laugh and we get vulnerable about topics people may not think to talk about. The goal is to connect, share insight and ultimately create a space where people can feel less alone as well as learn how to cultivate long lasting relationships.

In this episode of "Never a Dull Friend," I had the pleasure of sitting down with one of my most interesting friends: Eric Dodson, a world traveler with a fascinating story to tell. Eric takes us on a journey, sharing his experiences studying clowning in Mexico, making friends, dating in different countries, and even hosting a cooking show.
Throughout our conversation, we delve deep into the topic of cultural differences related to family and modern dating in Mexico, Europe, and the US. Eric offers practical advice on how to make friends internationally, providing valuable insights for listeners who may be traveling or living abroad.
In addition to his worldly experiences, Eric is also a talented comedian. He shares some of his new stage ideas with us, emphasizing the importance of putting your gifts out into the world. Eric's unique perspective and humor make this episode a must-listen for anyone looking to add more adventure, connection, and laughter to their lives.

Today on the Pod I get down and dirty talking about sex and dating with my fellow single friend Shannon O'Malley. We discuss everything from hilarious dating stories to safety in dating, and attempt to play a game of Big Dick or Little Dick energy. All around the episode is full of laughs, and love, and most importantly you get to see how we support each other through a common experience.

In this episode of Never a Dull Friend, I dive head first into talking about sibling relationships with my first friend, my sister Anna. We talk about everything from the importance of play to the turning point in our relationship where we finally accepted each other and felt seen. We had a very volatile relationship for about 15 years and that took a lot of work to get to where we are today. If this inspires you to heal a relationship with your sibling or parents, then we have done our job with this episode! Happy Humaning!
Never a Dull Friend podcast is all about human connection and how to cultivate authentic lasting friendships. It's like a TED talk, but in a conversation, you get to witness me (Pam) have thought provoking conversations with a friend on every episode. My goal is to create a platform that teaches and inspires people to lean into their communities as a pandemic really did a number on our social skills. As we get older making and maintaining friendships gets more challenging, but it's not about the number of new friends you have it's about the quality and how you choose to maintain it. Come be a fly on the wall and learn how my friends and I keep it together!
