Why is it so hard (and important) to make friends?

Experts have called it an epidemic. Not of some new virus — but loneliness. On this episode, we learn about the challenges of forming friendships, especially as we get older. And we find out about the mental health benefits of making connections. Our guests are Hannah Brosnan, Executive Director of Mental Health America of Kentucky, and friendship researcher Dr. Jeffrey Hall, Director of the Relationships and Technology Lab at the University of Kansas.
