The Secret To Staying Friends For Life

The Betches founders (and original Betch Slapped hosts) are back for episode one of this ten-episode season celebrating the tenth birthday of Betches Media. Aleen Dreksler, Sami Sage, and Jordana Abraham return to talk about the origin of their friendship (going all the way back to childhood) and some of their favorite memories together. From their earliest recollections of each other (guess whose screen name was CurlGurl) and how they met, to the time Aleen invited everyone over to make crepes and check out her new iPod, they tell us where their bond began. They swap stories about how they messed with one another in high school, dealing with disappointment, and what they would do differently (hint: they’d care a whole lot less about grades and drop band class much sooner). Plus, they tell us the secret to staying friends for so long, even after starting a business together. Then it’s time for the Dear Betch email of the week featuring some advice about “girl code” rules when it comes to an ex. A listener writes in to ask whether or not it’s acceptable to start dating a high school friend’s ex-boyfriend now that they’re several years removed. Finally, they play a game of “Who Knows Our Friend Best?” all about some of their most embarrassing secrets and earliest memories together.Visit affirm.com/betches to shop the latest in electronics, fashion, and more!
