About this listen

Fast Friends is a podcast about friendship make ups, break ups and EVERYTHING in between hosted by Tanu Ravi and Margarita Valderrama.


Despite both working and auditioning as actors in Toronto, sharing the same agent and running in common friendship circles, it wasn’t until moving to London, England that Tanu and Margarita finally crossed paths. They met for one lunch date, bonded over Fall Out Boy, became fast friends and started this podcast.


Join these two emo kids as they get to know each other better, share IRL and fictional friendships stories, and discuss listener dilemmas and questions.

  • Margarita's Irish Exit
    Apr 4 2025

    In this episode we discuss the first miscommunication in our friendship - happy to report we were very demure very mindful and communicated very well! But at the end of the day Margarita's Irish Exit was not great. On theme, the friendship dilemma deals with what to do when your friends always ditches you on a night out and never tells you where they're going or who they're with.


    Our amazing show music is by Tori Morrison.

  • "Chisme" Queen
    Mar 21 2025

    In this episode Margarita introduces Tanu to the her love of loves - the art of "chisme" (aka gossip). We also discuss what to do when your friend is a bad texter and frequently ghosts you. Do you say anything or just let it go?


    The article we reference is "Chisme Isn’t Just Salon-Chair Gossip. It’s an Act of Solidarity" By Ana Escalante

    Shoutout to Normal Gossip for everything they do and for the great get-to-know-you question.
