  • Season 1 Episode 10: "The One with the Monkey"
    May 31 2025

    This week, we’re taking on Friends Season 1, Episode 10, "The One with the Monkey." It’s New Year’s Eve in New York, and the gang’s no-date pact doesn’t exactly go to plan. We get into the arrival of Ross’s new pet (hi, Marcel), Phoebe’s heartbreak over David the Scientist Guy, and one of the biggest goofs in the entire series (where the heck is Minsk?!). Plus, we reveal our own weirdest pets, debate everyone’s least favorite Friend, and ask the hard-hitting question: would Harry Styles or Milo Manheim make a better modern-day David?

  • Season 1 Episode 9: "The One Where Underdog Gets Away"
    May 17 2025

    This week, we’re digging into Friends Season 1, Episode 9, "The One Where Underdog Gets Away." From Joey’s unfortunate modeling gig and a Thanksgiving that goes completely off the rails to the legendary “Got the keys? / Got the keys!” debate (arguably even more divisive than ‘WE WERE ON A BREAK!), this one’s got it all! We chat about how Susan might actually be the show’s best character, which form of potato is superior, and unpack the wild reason why Ciara can no longer go back to Vienna. Plus, don’t miss our discussion on death row meals. Pro tip: bring snacks, you will get hungry.

  • Season 1 Episode 8: "The One Where Nana Dies Twice"
    May 2 2025

    This week, we’re getting to grips with Friends Season 1, Episode 8, "The One Where Nana Dies Twice." From Ross and Monica grappling with their grandmother’s very confusing passing to Chandler questioning how others perceive his sexuality (way ahead of its time!), we have a lot of thoughts on this one! We get into the ethics of matchmaking your coworkers, point out some blink-and-you’ll-miss-it goofs, and admire one of the most iconic shots of the series. Oh - and things somehow take a turn into true crime territory as we share our own near-death experiences and ghost stories (yes, really).

  • Season 1 Episode 7: "The One with the Blackout"
    Apr 19 2025

    This week, we’re diving into Friends Season 1, Episode 7, "The One with the Blackout." From Chandler getting trapped in an ATM vestibule with a supermodel (cue: “Gum would be perfection”) to Ross’s run-in with a very aggressive cat and the arrival of sexy Paolo, this one is packed with chaos—in the best way. We chat about our own accidental brushes with celebrity (Ciara literally met Beyoncé!), celebrate some truly elite face acting, and dig into why this episode is our favourite one yet.

    Got a favorite blackout story, run-in with a famous face, or just want to share your love of Friends? Hit us up on IG @fofpodofficial or email fofpodofficial@gmail.com with your thoughts, stories, or trivia gems - we’d love to hear from you!

    Apr 5 2025

    This week, we take a crack at (pun intended!) Friends Season 1, Episode 6, "The One with the Butt." From Joey landing his big break (kind of) to Monica’s next-level cleaning obsession and Chandler’s unexpected brush with polyamory, there’s plenty to chat about! We also dive into Chandler’s unsettling doll collection, links between Friends and Harry Potter, and the time Matthew Perry actually beat up the Canadian prime minister. Plus, we share stories of weird roommates, jobs we’ve been fired from, and how Ciara’s kind of into salsa now (oops!)

We discuss Ross and Rachel’s maybe-date at the laundromat, Joey and Monica’s misguided matchmaking scheme, and Chandler’s hilariously painful attempts to break up with Janice.
