It's so exciting. We get to do all these companion things now to TV shows. It's not just a TV show anymore. It's a podcast. It's a content suite.

Oh, it's just like any, I mean, old friends are like family. So as soon as you're reunited, you default to your position in the dynamic, don't you? And I think what Laurie is starting to question, what it's forced into relief is Laurie's own choices about her life. You know, there's always the presumption that other people are judging you, even if they're not actually thinking about you.

But Laurie, I think, feels that they must all be judging and thinking about her. And she's not feeling great about her life right now.

Right. But she's also participating in that system, right? As soon as somebody walks away, we're talking about them. Of course, she has the weird pressure of having a famous friend, which is strange when you've known someone your whole life and then suddenly they're catapulted into the public eye. You sort of start to observe them as an outsider in a way.

So she has that relationship, of course, with Jacqueline. And then, you know, her other friend is pulling away from her ideologically, I would say, which is its own kind of shock for her. And I think she feels righteous in her positions, you know, wrestling with what she's wrestling with at home. And she's not really been open with her friends about how hard it's been for her in her personal life.

Because she's pretending everything's fine, which we all are doing.

I am the Jacqueline from high school. I mean, honestly, right? I'm the person from my high school who's now living in the public eye, right? And so what I have, what I've received, you know, my life is, I don't get recognized on the street or anything, so I'm not living that life. It's all happening on the internet.

But the thing that I've actually been conscious of is that the people from my childhood are actually quite warm and loving. You know, they'll reach out on Facebook and sort of celebrate my success because I think everybody feels a little hometown pride, right?

If you come from a small town like I come from, when somebody gets out and is sort of doing well, there's something there to celebrate and you feel like you're participating in something positive. I have not received a lot of negative energy and maybe it's because I'm from the Midwest.

And people aren't, you know, as jaded as they would be, like, from New York when everybody went to Juilliard and only one of you got out. You know, so I don't have that sort of thing. So, I mean, so I guess I'm Jacqueline, right?
