As we get older, friendships can slip through the cracks of our busy lives. In this episode of Gist with Tofu, we’re talking about those distant friends—the ones who used to be at the table but slowly faded into the background. From the simple joy of gathering around for a meal to the quiet, unspoken distance that can grow between even the closest of friends, this episode is a reflection on how we navigate adult friendships.

Through a blend of nostalgia, real talk, and a touch of poetic introspection, we explore what happens when life moves faster than our connections, and why it’s never too late to hit rewind. So, grab a seat (even if it’s just for the vibes) and join me as we revisit those friendships that shaped us, the ones we’ve lost touch with, and the ones still waiting for us to show up.
