In this episode of Our Friendly World with Fawn and Matt, the conversation revisits one of their favorite topics — “Be interested, not interesting” — and takes it a step further. What happens when curiosity crosses the line into gossip? How do we find that sweet spot between being genuinely curious about others and also sharing enough of ourselves to form real, balanced relationships?
Through laughter and reflection, Fawn and Matt explore the world of nosy neighbors, awkward soundchecks, and the universal discomfort of hearing our own voices (and seeing our own images). Together, they uncover how relationships begin to thrive when both sides bring something meaningful to the table — when we’re interested enough to listen deeply, and interesting enough to keep growing.
A reminder: true connection isn’t one-sided — it’s a living, breathing exchange of curiosity, honesty, and shared humanity.
