Ep. 60 - Getting Friend Zoned Ft. Brendan Sagalow

Getting rejected is never easy, and there are any number of ways to deal with it, but referring to it as "getting friend zoned" might be one of the most toxic, self-victimizing ways of doing it.

Comedian Brendan Sagalow (Sirius XM, MTV, New York's Funniest finalist) joins the podcast to break down his bit on getting "friend zoned" as we poke holes in this stupid defense mechanism to prove that you can DEFINITELY laugh at that.
