Here’s a conclusion I came to recently. Your best friends are the ones you send memes back and forth with.
Fuck, that would make a great Hallmark card.
But come on, think about it. There’s no quicker way to develop jokes, learn someone’s humor and develop close friendships. Here lies the origins of Left On Read, an interview series where we creep through one of our friends’ phones.
I’m talking notes, camera roll, search histories, movie recommendations, memes, and more.
Today, we’ve unlocked Julian Lewis’ phone. You may recognize Julian from Foundation’s Whippersnappers and Splendor full lengths, his beautiful Real Street entry, or the time we got him arrested skating on Roosevelt Island.
Enjoy the scroll, and a little secret, his phone password is 42069. Jk, we didn’t get that intel, but we got everything else!

The second is my buddy Peter Freeman, he’s a filmer from Connecticut. He loves to put his mouth around beers [laughs].
The third is me and Max Maffucci, he passed away a couple months ago. I got to become really good friends with Max when I moved to California.
