#064 - Can You Have Friends of the Opposite Sex?

from Pulling Threads · host Alex Cleary

If you’re in a relationship, where’s the line between “we’re mates” and “this is getting a bit too close”? We get stuck into the best-friend boundary, the situations that look innocent on paper, and why the door being “slightly open” is still a problem.From there it turns into the usual Pulling Threads chaos: anonymous accounts talking big without putting their name to it, why that’s a bitch move, and why accountability feels like it’s disappearing in real life too.Plus Harry of the Week is a different species: Man Sharma doing the world’s first burpee broad jump marathon (yep… a full marathon), the maths on how cooked that actually is, and a yarn about someone trying to beat it.And we finish with a proper list: top things that make you irrationally angry (parking out front, Facebook Marketplace fuckwits), sparky beef like “zip ties vs cable ties,” and a surprisingly solid breakdown on why cheap LEDs flicker and why 50Hz can literally kill you.
