Four Old College Friends

Four Old College Friends

Four Old College Friends is a podcast documenting what it's like to be women, in our 40s, in the 2020s. We're Adrienne, Lauren, Deanna and Jessica and we've been friends for over 25 years. We've had four different life paths, different careers and jobs. We have 9 kids between the 4 of us. And we're getting together to talk. Because adulting is hard, we might as well have some fun.
