Daniel and Matt are not friends. They were merely "friends of friends" growing up in adjacent suburbs of Dallas. Since leaving Texas for opposite coasts — Daniel out West and Matt up East — the two have become *actual* friends and now record and upload their cross-country conversations about music, art, politics, and "life."
As daily life screeches to a halt, Daniel and Matt check in with friends — Josh in San Francisco and David in Mexico City — to see how they are faring during the Coronavirus crisis. Discussions include: - how hard it is to remember what has happened in the last week - how different cities and countries are informing their citizens (or not) - stories of elation and panic - what has to happen next - how we want to not be talking about this on the show Do send us an email: StepFriendsPod@gmail.com
