What role does marriage play in society today? What would happen if it disappeared overnight? What does commitment mean to us? And... would we ever change our surnames for anyone else? In this pensive episode we discuss topics that take us out of our comfort zone and into the realm of speculation. Join us as we figure out our answers to these questions - and as we realise how much more we have to learn on the journey ahead! ❤️

🎙️ Welcome to Milliseconds Apart, a podcast where three friends, separated by thousands of miles in real life but just milliseconds apart over the internet, chat about life, meaning, human connection, and everything else in between.
