Olga Koch: The Literal-Expert-in-Fwends Fwend.

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 20:02:00 GMT

It's Russia's/Several other countries' Olga Koch! One of the world's best comedians and, as we find out in the episode, also a real bloody brainiac. Join the gang as we learn that we are definitely in para-social relationships, Kyran is very good at segues, and Rhys is trying to interview someone. A joy! Fwends!

The Parasocial Deep-Dive

The core of the episode revolves around Olga’s academic and personal obsession with how we form bonds with people we don't actually know.

Defining the "Fwendship": Olga explains that the term "parasocial relationship" was coined in the 1950s regarding talk show hosts, but has been "turbo-charged" by social media and podcasts.
The Intimacy of Audio: She notes that podcasting creates the most intense version of this bond because the host is "directly in your ear" for long periods, leading listeners to feel they are part of a "perceived inner circle".
The Emotional Reality: Olga argues that even if a relationship is "imaginary" or one-sided, the emotional response (the dopamine hit from a message or the grief when a character dies) is biologically valid and real.

Only Fwends | Fwends Reunited

Thu, 30 Oct 2025 17:11:38 GMT

In this episode, we catch up after Georgia's tour got super busy, swapping stories from the road and a few birthday celebrations. We chat about getting older, how the industry keeps shifting (shock), and dive into a mailbag full of postcards from fwends. The chat wanders (classic us) into collecting memories, giving great gifts, and the oddly satisfying world of hobbies that serve absolutely no purpose. We talk about trying to learn languages - Portuguese in particular, can't imagine why - and how gendered words make everything just that little bit harder. Along the way, we get into left-handed guitar weirdness and the strange tradition of gifting things to babies who aren’t even born yet. It’s loose, funny, and full of that ever familiar mix of heart and silly that you've come to know and love and trust and hate and dread but kind of still need each week.

Only Fwends | Superfans

Thu, 23 Oct 2025 15:16:21 GMT

In the mailbag Kyran and Rhys are sans Georgia as she continues the final travels around regional Queensland on tour. Kyran and Rhys have some stories from you about the times you've fanned out, that one time Kyran was creepy to Eskimo Joe a little bit but in a nice young fan/cousin kind of way and also Rhys is still learning German much to Kyran's dismay.

Thu, 28 Aug 2025 21:02:00 GMT

It's a mail bag! It's going to start off with quite a lot of chat about Metamucil, but that stops eventually. Kyran is off the plane and he has some gentle words about the experience. In a wild twist he is in the same house as Georgia, and Rhys definitely has had a coooupla wine. With some lovely messages from listeners and a very graphic soundscape about falling out of a plane with no pants on, it's Fwends!

Zachary Ruane | Comedy Friends, Podcast "Friends" & Dogs

Mon, 07 Apr 2025 21:03:00 GMT

Zachary Ruane is best known as one-third of the global comedy phenomenon, Aunty Donna. In his own right, he's a comedian, a writer, an actor, and a world class artiste of the noblest of all pursuits, podcasting. In this episode, Zac talks with hilarious candour (and mild panic) about reaching one's mid-30s and wondering what friendship is supposed to look like. Let's just say the question "are you a good friend?" really takes off. He also pontificates about forming Aunty Donna before they were friends, about the fine line between friendship and podcasting, about the purity of friendship between man and dog, and so much more.

Plus, while Rhys is tragically absent, Georgia & Kyran catch up in the intro, covering political campaigning, female wrestling, democracy sausages, a songwriting sabbatical, the weather, and a potential new segment "what has [insert name of host] missed?"

Sarah Blasko | A Fanatical Church, Bootcamp & Chic Hair

Mon, 24 Mar 2025 20:17:41 GMT

Sarah Blasko is one of Australia's most beloved singer-songwriters. She's a 3x ARIA winner, 18x ARIA nominee, and has won the J Award for Australian Album of the Year. Sarah’s seventh album I Just Need To Conquer This Mountain is one of late night reflections on goodbyes, grief, new beginnings, and an important friendship that underpinned her childhood. So how apt to have her on the podcast to wax lyrical about friends. Sarah talks about her childhood friend with very chic hair, a friendship made in church, a very dear late friend, whether you can be friends with your children, and much more.

Hello hello hello. It's so great to be back.
