Believe it or not, Joe and Laura have never talked on the phone. So when Joe feels a little under the weather, he takes a new (somewhat taboo) step in their growing friendship and gives Laura a ring. Joe helps Laura interpret a dream about a woman named Maria WITH SHRIMP FOR EYES, while Laura helps Joe interpret his dream about a warm, squishy hug from Oprah. Toilet flushes, awkward pauses, and a bit of static all flow together in a beautiful sonic landscape that is the modern telephone conversa...

Joe and Laura have said it all. Yep, they’re finally out of things to say… until they aren’t. Joe is still HIGHLY concerned about grackles (aka “demon birds”) and has researched the legality of MURDERING THEM.

The Democratic debates have begun, and Joe and Laura are going head to head about the issues that matter most to you. Climate change? No, of course not. Immigration? Are you kidding me? Healthcare? Get outta here! When the hosts of Heavy Friending debate, it’s about much more than topics as simple as voting rights and gun control. Instead, Joe and Laura are talking vegetables… perhaps, the most controversial veggie of them all: THE BRUSSELS SPROUT. This fast-paced battle of wit (moderated by the...

Pop in your earbuds, get those tight little buns in bed, and listen to the soothing voices of Joe Barlow and Laura Lee Bishop as they ASMR you to tingly paradise. Sure, Joe and Laura don't really know what ASMR is, but does anyone? Hear them whisper naughty secrets and crunch tasty snacks. Laura's dog, Ruger Elizabeth Taylor, even makes an audio appearance. This week, Joe is mad about climate change (per usual), Laura talks in great detail about her period (again, nothing new there), but most im...
It's been too long since Joe and Laura had a good ol' fashioned talk (2 episodes ago), and it's time to reconnect.

It's no secret that Joe goes on a lot of dates. (At least that's what he claims.) It's also not a secret that Laura is happily married. Perhaps she holds the secret to finding Joe a meaningful mate.

Joe and Laura give advice when no, technically, one asked for it. Joe gesticulates wildly, flaunting his healthy wrists, while Laura - EXCUSE ME - attempts a terrible Irish accent.

Predictably, Joe and Laura can’t seem to help themselves from mentioning Nick F***** a few times. Show the Heavy Friending Sale Department some love by becoming a patron!

After the incredible success of last year's hit podcast, Muriel (created and produced by Joe Barlow) we've decided to change the format of the podcast again. Heavy Friending was fun but it didn't work. The investigative reporter podcast format, that explores one case over multiple episodes, did. Thanks for your support for this and all future episode of Muriel.
Joe and Laura have been busy for weeks, and they gotta catch up. Joe asserts that Laura was too pro-Russia at her last live show. Laura is still on "island time" from her #springbreak at the beach.

Joe and Laura have a stupid idea for a reality show. Laura has gas, and Joe is obsessed with beaches and farting on airplanes. Three brothers. Two alive, one dead. Last name “King.” Owners of a Christmas tree farm. Oh, and Mother King is dead. Sound like a hit reality show? Maybe not, but you’re watching “We Three Kings” only on Bravo.

My dear friend, Breanna, lost her battle with skin cancer last week. I’m still processing this loss, so I’m not yet able to express what she meant to me or how hard it has been to say goodbye. One thing is for certain, I will never be the same. I love and miss you, little bird. xoxo Laura Lee For more information on melanoma, visit skincancer.org
Joe and Laura have a lot on their minds! Fake glasses: infuriating. Not flushing after "a brown": uncool. Saying "bless you" after someone sneezes: HOW DARE YOU?

Joe and Laura catch up after holiday break, but they’re both a little sick. Laura is concerned with bare butts, and Joe makes a case for steel slats.

Joe and Laura plan on recording a big farewell to 2018 but, instead, discuss their recent physical ailments. Laura has stitches, and Joe was attacked by a plastic plant. They introduce a new segment in which they try to find friends on Craigslist and call a prospective new pal by the name of Nick F*****. Again, his name is Nick F*****. Also, Laura hates her neighbors. For Joe and Laura's medical photos, become a patron of Heavy Friending! https://www.patreon.com/heavyfriending Follow Heavy Frien...
