Hey guys, welcome or welcome back to the podcast where your friends, Maddie and Lauren.

And we are back for another episode.

This is the fourth time we've recorded this unsuccessfully.

So let's hope for the best.

Honestly, we haven't been doing much.

So I don't know if there's even that much to update you guys on

but we are recording from mexico we are here for family vacation for this entire week we just got

here on sunday and we've just been relaxing we've had two very relaxing days today we've been

podcasting literally for four hours but after this we're going to tan.

We're going to get a great tan, just chill. Do you have any other updates to share, Lauren?

Not too many updates, but I feel like we should explain a bit. We've just had some audio problems.

A lot. Yeah, quite a few audio problems. But we think we finally have it figured out.

So fingers crossed.

If this doesn't work, I'm quitting podcasting.

So if this is the last episode, you know why.

If you never hear from us again, you know what happened.

All right.

So this week we're talking about growing up.

And I think this is a really interesting topic because obviously it's something everyone

experiences regardless of who you are where you live you know everyone has to grow up everyone has

similar experiences and we asked you to ask us some questions on our Instagram at call your friends

podcast so we're going to read those off and let that guide our discussion today.
