, a 26-year-old emerging writer and comedian, created this project with a fresh, clear vision. She says, "so many shows about young people are often created by an older generation. I've always been obsessed with sitcoms and wanted to create a series that was true to my experience."

" is a podcast that couples quality storytelling with a good dose of nostalgia and lots of laugh-out-loud moments amongst friends. It's a show that has been created by Gen Z writers and producers, for a Gen Z audience - an underserved and underrepresented group in the world of podcasting. I think it's going to strike a chord and create die-hard fans amongst a generation who love the classic sitcoms that resonate with their own lives and capture some of their experiences and routines. It's a great opportunity for advertisers to reach young audiences so I'm pleased to have partnered with Clamor and Kelly&Kelly to make it available on our digital ad exchange, DAX."
