About this episode
You've just experienced the ultimate friendship breakup—saying goodbye to your daily texting buddy and partner-in-crime. It's somewhat comparable to ending a romantic relationship, but without the emotional baggage... and perhaps with a bit more drama. What occurs when friendships come to an end? Spoiler alert: It's not always as pleasant as you might hope, but it's always a valuable learning experience. / Why do some Chinese people prefer not to use dryers (17:11)? On the show: Niu Honglin, Steve Hatherly & Ding Heng
