0:00Even the woman last night I was with, she's like, we're like best friends.

0:02Like, and I was like, I've met you once.

0:04The best friend thing is one of my biggest pet peeves about people.

0:07Saying that, like, a dozen people are your best friend over the course of a year, I'm like, I don't believe you.

0:14We had an invisible string through my ex-husband, even.

0:17So, my string to him connected me to my string to you.

0:20My little and my sorority in college knew you from SoulCycle.

0:24When I wanted to become an instructor, I said, I want to be an instructor.

0:27She's like, I know someone.

0:28So, my little and my sorority connected me to you.

0:30To bring in the Sean thread, I met Sean in 2012.

0:34I was working at Bounce Sporting Club here in New York City.

0:36I was a waitress, bottle girl.

0:38He asked me out on a date, but we never dated.

0:41I would never say.

0:44Hello and welcome to Almost 30.

0:46Hi, everybody.

0:46Welcome to the show.

0:47It's Lindsay and Krista, your girls, your best friends.

0:50Your best friends.

0:51Happy to have you.

0:51In person.

0:52I've been talking to Lindsay about something.

0:54I'm curious what you guys think about this.

0:56I was just talking to Lindsay about how I invite a bunch of people to stuff that don't know each other.
