Posted on December 9, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Friends: Tired of not having anyone to go out with? Looking for a loyal BFF near you? Or do you just want to hear about the desperate things other people do in their quest for friendship?

Well tune in this week for our interview with Rachel Bertsche, author of MWF Seeking BFF: My Yearlong Search for a New Best Friend. She will discuss her hilarious new memoir and share some of her experiences going on “best friend” dates, including what it’s like to hand over the cash to your new ‘pal’ after using Rent-a-Friend.

Gifts: Or if you have all the loved ones you can manage, and possibly a few more besides, our second guest is Dana Holmes, Editor in chief at Gifts.com. She will reveal the hottest gift ideas this holiday season for all ages. And  later we provide suggestions for gifts to give people that you hate (kidding, kind of!)

Holidays: Plus, we’ll go into how to tell a friend/co-worker not to get smashed at office party. And dealing with Christmas in school when you celebrate something else.
