In the latest episode of Talking Cod, Phil, Dave, and Andy examine the delicate tapestry of relationships that surround us in middle age.
As we transition through life's milestones, our family, intimate friends, and mentors often become the pillars of our identity.
Through the usually lively chat, some pretty deep anecdotes, and a dash of humour, the trio unpack how our bonds evolve and how, as our social spheres get smaller, the quality and supportiveness of these connections get deeper.
And we look at the comfort we get from knowing we have a backup when the brown stuff hits the fan. Whether it's a pat on the back or a shoulder to lean on, the 'inner circle' becomes our safe haven.
