Best Friends Don't Hug (A Meditation on Telepathic Friendship)
At 16:15 · chapter starts 16:00
Two longer sponsor reads fill this chapter. BetterHelp leads with a striking stat from its 2026 State of Stigma report: 85% of Americans believe getting mental health support is wise, yet 74% say society discourages it. The ad positions BetterHelp as the antidote, citing 30,000+ therapists, 6 million clients served, and a 4.9/5 rating. Kachava follows with a summer travel nutrition pitch, highlighting its all-in-one protein-fiber-greens travel packs and the full list of things it contains but doesn't (GMOs, gluten, soy, artificial flavors). Both ads are narrated by the production ad voice.
