    Episode Five

    We moved pod platforms so we missed last week but we're back baby! This episode is super chill - fear of death, getting heckled, fierce women, dating outside our communities, joint accounts, divorce and shouting.  Sashi sets a record for saying 'like' in this epi and we can't edit it out because we promised low production value. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Episode Four

    This week we get into the pettiest things we’ve ever done, how to know when someone’s clearly not into you, dad bods being absolute bs, attributes to look for in a partner and what it feels like to meet fans in the real world, especially when you’re trying to buy the morning after pill.

    Welcome to Can We Be Friends!

    We started a podcast because noone else has one. Super glad we thought of this first. What do two comedians - Anisa Nandaula and Sashi Perera - do when they’ve followed each other for years online and then chat IRL for the first time? Record it to see if they can be friends. We’re so thrilled to figure out how to upload this intro. First episode is out tomorrow. This is a public episode.
