Since they became best friends in fifth grade they've stayed connected through a unique sense of humor heavily fueled by Dr. Katz, David Letterman, SNL, O.J. Simpson jokes, Norm MacDonald and The State and what sneakers are thinking. Since their band didn't take off in high school, they got married and had kids, and work day jobs to pay the bills they figured it was time to join everyone else and start a podcast. Why We Are Friends is a nostalgia podcast that captures hilarious memories of their past in what shaped a great friendship and interviews with other friends - new and old.

Customer Reviews
Really funny and entertaining!
Great chemistry on this show! The conversation is really funny and keep you entertained from beginning to end. My favorite part of this show is the personal stories because they are so relatable. These guys make it feel as if you are sitting in the room with them which is difficult for many podcasts to do but these guys captivate an audience with ease. Great episodes. Entertaining from beginning to end. Looking forward to more!
Where is my song!?
Super funny guys, this was a good listen, but I’m going to change my review to one star unless we get to hear the song!
