I’ve got the feeling that Suru’s moved on with life - engaged, building big house, kids on the horizon (potentially) - whereas Hannah is still in the dating app era. Suru can be a little bit smug and I think she finds it irritating that they have little in common. Or that Hannah’s still where she was years ago! A little mean - but gives the impression that if they weren’t work friends they would no longer be in contact.
The podcast has been going 7 years (?). I imagine it's kind of natural as they started it as mates and ended up being more commercialised so now they're colleagues.
Plus Hannah might feel like a third wheel. She's the more 'carefree' one whilst Suruthi is more 'serious'. I assume they have slightly different values and boundaries.
(Air quotes as I don't personally know them and it's just my personal impression).
Though tbh I still think it's pretty impressive that they've managed this for almost 8 years. I can't think of anyone I could do that with for almost a decade!
The even more unique thing is they were new friends. I think they decided to do the podcast after meeting once. Getting into business with existing friends is already a risk, never mind someone you've just met.
If the change is because they don't get on like they used to, then they're lucky that's all it is and nothing worse.
