In this episode of Almost 30, Lindsey and Krista interview each other.  You'd think they know everything about one another, but the coolest part of friendship is finding out new sh*t about the other person every time you are together.  You know!?  The girls dig deep and get curious.  Lindsey explains how attending an all-girls, private, Catholic school shaped who she is today, Krista gives us her vision of where she will be in ten years, and SO much more.  It's still the beginning here at Almost 30, so the girls thought it was important you get to know them a little better.
