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.

Fear thrives in silence and confusion. Ana Navarro rejects both. Her voice is an antidote to today’s chaos. Her new podcast, Bleep! with Ana Navarro, takes on today’s most pressing issues with the voices most connected to it: decision-makers, political leaders, cultural shapers, and people on the frontlines of the story. The conversations acknowledge the emotions we all feel—despair, sadness, fear— but emerge with knowledge, perspective, and hope. The belief is simple: fearless dialogue can transform fear into courage, and courage into change. When fear dominates the headlines, this show digs deeper. Because information, debate, and conversation don’t just ease fear, they give us power to shape the future.
