Settling in for a long year of quarantine meant a revelation for millions of Americans: we miss having friends. Boston Globe staff writer Billy Baker joins host Krys Boyd to talk about his realization that, at 40, his full life was missing a cadre of close buddies and how that lead to his quest to rebuild those intimate connections outside work and family. His book is “We Need to Hang Out: A Memoir of Making Friends.”
