Only Fwends | ASMR & Funerals (We've Got Range)
Season 9 · Episode 15
lundi 1 juin 2026 • Duration 38:38
It's Only Fwends! Every fortnight, between interviews, we thwee Fwends have a little natter. In this episode we discuss the true definition of ASMR, before getting into funerals, and then winding up thoughtfully reminiscing about beloved departed Australian broadcaster, James Valentine. It's an absolutely chaotic mixed bag, and we think James would be proud.

Olga Koch: The Literal-Expert-in-Fwends Fwend.
Season 9 · Episode 6
lundi 30 mars 2026 • Duration 55:54
The Parasocial Deep-Dive
The core of the episode revolves around Olga’s academic and personal obsession with how we form bonds with people we don't actually know.
- Defining the "Fwendship": Olga explains that the term "parasocial relationship" was coined in the 1950s regarding talk show hosts, but has been "turbo-charged" by social media and podcasts.
- The Intimacy of Audio: She notes that podcasting creates the most intense version of this bond because the host is "directly in your ear" for long periods, leading listeners to feel they are part of a "perceived inner circle".
- The Emotional Reality: Olga argues that even if a relationship is "imaginary" or one-sided, the emotional response (the dopamine hit from a message or the grief when a character dies) is biologically valid and real.
