In this heartfelt solo episode of KX Unscripted, Keith Boutte gets real about something we all deal with but don’t talk about enough — friendship. Not the kind you hashtag on social media or the ones who are only around when things are good, but the real-deal, show-up-when-it’s-hard, help-you-get-a-job kind of friends.
Keith breaks down the difference between a true friend and a co-defendant, challenging listeners to rethink who they keep close. With personal reflections, street wisdom, and some hard truths, he explores how real friendships are built over time — not through hype, but through hardship, loyalty, and love.
This episode is for anyone who’s ever questioned their circle or felt the weight of fake love. It’s a reminder that real friends are rare, worth the wait, and always show up with solutions — not just stories.

Keith says it best:
“A real friend says, ‘Let’s go get a job.’ A fake one says, ‘Let’s go catch a charge.’ Don’t confuse the two.”
Tune in to this powerful episode and learn how to spot the difference — because not everybody who’s close is your friend, and not everyone who calls you “bro” has your back.
