Follow along as Fran recaps Living Single S1E15 - Living Kringle:
"Synclaire is saddened to see that none of her friends share her enthusiasm for Christmas. She tries her best to get everyone in the spirit of Christmas."

This week on #TheFriendZone, it’s the final episode of the year. We take a look back at 2025 - from the community rallying together during the LA Wildfires, Armon’s Diddy coverage on YouTube to Patti LuPone getting cursed out for 15 min straight as an intro! We also take note of the range of conversations we contributed to the Podcast Landscape.
Thank you for another wonderful year together. Have a happy and safe Holiday!
