We've officially reached the point in literature where apparently anything can be a love interest. And naturally, Ashton and Maddie have questions.

In this episode of Say Less, Actually, we're diving headfirst into the wonderfully unhinged world of sentient romance books. From everyday objects developing feelings to romantic relationships we genuinely never imagined someone would write about, we're exploring a corner of the book world that raises far more questions than it answers.

Who is writing these? Who is reading them? And, perhaps most importantly, how did we get here?

Expect questionable book premises, plenty of confusion, uncontrollable laughter, and two best friends trying to understand just how far the romance genre is willing to go.

Apparently, the limit does not exist.

We could say less. We won't.

Making friends as a kid? Easy. Making friends in your 20s? Apparently, we need a scheduling assistant, three business days' notice, and a little emotional support.

This week on Say Less, Actually, Maddie and Ashton are talking about the weird, awkward, and sometimes exhausting reality of making and maintaining friendships in your 20s.

From figuring out how to navigate changing friendships, busy schedules, and the uncomfortable process of feeling like some people make it a competition, we're discussing why adult friendships can feel so much more complicated than anyone warned us.

We're talking about finding your people, knowing when to let friendships go, and realizing that sometimes the best connections happen when you least expect them.

Because making friends shouldn't feel like a job interview… but somehow, here we are.

Two best friends. Questionable social skills. A whole lot of opinions.

Say less? Actually, let's talk about it. 💕

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.

Welcome back to Say Less, Actually, where one of us comes prepared with information and the other is just along for the ride.

This week, Maddie takes Ashton down a rabbit hole involving Port and Starboard, two infamous orcas with a reputation that's anything but adorable. What starts as a casual conversation about killer whales quickly turns into an unexpected marine biology lesson filled with questions and concerns from Ashton along with the usual chaos.

Because apparently, even the ocean has its own true crime stories.

Two best friends. One unexpected orca obsession. Absolutely no qualifications to discuss marine biology.

We could say less. But we won't.
