Join us at BPL’s Podcast Club for a thematic discussion based on the podcast medium. All are welcome!

While we’ll focus on audio, there’ll also be some articles, videos, even still images you can glance at before our gathering. This month's topic is platonic love and friendship. Join us to chat about the concepts that come from these episodes such as community building, the importance of making friends later in life, living physically close to friends, and more.
