Episode 1: Meet Megan and Taylor! Two best friends whose 30-year friendship has included countless long-distance calls across numerous states and, now, continents. Taylor and her family of five are packing up their lives and moving from Fort Collins, Colorado, to Berlin, Germany (!!) And they are using this podcast as an excuse to catch up weekly and hear everything happening in Nashville and Berlin - all those high highs and low lows of life. In this first episode, Megan peppers Taylor with questions about the move, why they decided to take this leap, and they discuss the roller coaster she has been feeling pursuing this dream. Megan admits to both telling a grown man she was proud of him and being too obsessed with teens on television.
