Finding Your Tribe in Your 40s

What is up, y'all! Welcome back to another Damn We Grown Wednesday. Mike and Tiff are in the building, and this week we’re getting into the real, hilarious, and sometimes exhausting realities of being grown. From aging parents and careers to raising kids who are way better at sports than we ever were, we are covering it all.

Grab your coffee (or your wine, no judgment), sit back, and let’s talk about what happens when you finally realize you can't just do whatever you want anymore—because you got bills!

🎧 What We’re Getting Into This Episode:

• Volleyball Glow-Ups: Maddie is killing it on her club team! We talk about the realities of being club sports parents and watching your kid genuinely level up.

• The Biopic Debate: Tiff reviews The Bride and we debate the Mount Rushmore of musical biopics (Are we putting the Jackson 5 over Bohemian Rhapsody? Let’s argue).

• Gas Prices & Politics: LA gas is touching $6 and flirting with $8. We’re ranting about inflation, the "Frat Boy" political cabinet, and the wild news cycle we are all trapped in.

• Making Friends in Your 40s: Let's get real—why is making new friends as an adult so awkward? We talk about outgrowing your 20s friend group, the "Blue Zones" (shoutout to Loma Linda!), the "Melanin on the Mountain" hiking crew, and why we are not the parents trying to play with other people's kids at the indoor playground.

🤎 The Soulful Moment: We pulled a card from the "Rethink Conversation Starters," and things got deep: What was the moment you knew you were in love with me? Mike takes us back to the early days, living check-to-check and beat-to-beat in Riverside, and the exact moment he knew Tiff was the one.

Tap in, drop a comment, and let us know: How are y'all making friends out here in these adult streets?
