In this episode of Speakeasy, we’re pulling back the curtain on two quiet companions most adults know too well, loneliness and imposter syndrome. Somewhere between career goals, family obligations, and social media perfection, many of us lose the deep connections we once had, and start doubting whether we even deserve the lives we’ve built. Tonight, we’ll talk about the ache of drifting friendships, the masks we wear to seem “put together,” and the truth that none of us really have it all figured out.

In the pilot episode of Speakeasy.fm, host Beau Bourbon opens the door to the bar, and to his life. A separated man on the road to divorce, Beau is candidly navigating the uncertainty of starting over and rediscovering who he is beyond the wreckage of the past. Between sips of raw honesty and reflection, he introduces Speakeasy.fm as a place where truth flows freely, a dimly lit refuge for real talk, human stories, and the unfiltered moments that shape who we become.

It’s not therapy. It’s not gossip. It’s the start of something real.
