Pillow Talk

By Alia & Yoni

Don’t worry this is not another couple making a relationship podcast, it’s WAY more than that! Listen in on what are normally Alia and Yoni’s private, day-to-day, honest conversations about their relationship, friendships, careers, fears, feelings, and whatever else is leftover. Being different ages, meeting on a little app called Tinder, and growing up on different sides of Europe (Romania & Belgium), it keeps people wondering what the conversations behind closed doors are really like. Get ready for an honest, raw, uncomfortable, and hilarious time! Follow us on IG: @aliazaita @yoniekoto

Ep.19 Be Yourself

Ep.19 Be Yourself

"be yourself"... what does that really mean? Is there just one version of ourselves or are there multiple versions that come out at different times? How much of yourself do you really reveal to a stranger at first, and most importantly what do you play when you have the aux cord? YOUR truest most favorite songs, or the songs you know everyone will like? We had a lot of fun this episode, we hope you have a few great laughs too!

Ep.17 Relationship Taboos

Ep.17 Relationship Taboos

Someone somewhere decided that we shouldn't fart in front of our partner and in no way should we ever talk about our exes or our fantasies. Well, we decided to talk all about the relationships no-nos, taboos, and uncomfortable topics that might come up between partners or in relation to society. Beware, because this gets quiteeee real but that's exactly what this podcast is for.

Ep.16 Answering Your Questions

Ep.15 Are you judgmental?

Ep.15 Are you judgmental?

We all try to be as open-minded as possible, but in a world where division is growing, we find ourselves constantly reacting to each other's differences. Sometimes our reactions can get the best of us, but at the end of the day, it's truly up to us to decide how to deal with it. Listen in as Alia and Yoni open up about managing arguments and divisions in today's society.

Ep.14 Reflections, Resolutions & Our NYC Trip

Ep.14 Reflections, Resolutions & Our NYC Trip

2022 is finally here, and yes the past two years have felt like one very long year but we're both ready to say goodbye to 2021 and jump into a new year. We kind of have mixed feelings about making new year resolutions because they often don't hold up, but there's still something special about setting yourself up with goals at the beginning of the year, so we dove into some of our 2022 resolutions. We also wanted to recap our New York City trip since it was our first time in the city and we had a few impressions to share. Hope you all had a great holiday season and see you next year!

Ep.13 PDA

Ep.13 PDA

We all see it. PUBLIC DISPLAY of AFFECTION is a little bit more complex than we realized and we definitely had a few too many things to say about it. Whether you think it's gross or you think it's the cutest thing to show your affection towards your significant other in public or witness someone else doing it, we all have an opinion on what level of it is appropriate, where is it appropriate, and everything else in between. Listen for more!

Ep.12 Is Social Media Toxic?

yes, we know, here's another conversation about how social media is bad for you blah blah blah... however, social media is constantly changing and its negatives and positives are evolving every day. We dive deep into some of our most honest perceptions and behaviors on social media and face the truth about how much we let things influence our lives. Enjoy!

*1 HOUR into the episode we get into an off-topic but very juicy question that you won't want to miss!

Ep.10 Living with your Partner

Ep.10 Living with your Partner

If you're in a relationship thinking you want to move in with your partner, you probably googled: what's the perfect time to move in with bf/gf, how to split bills with my partner or how do I tell my partner I need my space? In this episode, we share the honest truth about what it's like living with each other, how we manage our relationship with alone time while answering all your questions.

Ep.9 Making New Friends

Ep.9 Making New Friends

The title is pretty self-explanatory, but how the fuck do YOU make friends? Past the people you met at school or work, where else can you meet new people? Well honestly, we don't fucking know either. At this point, Alia is struggling to talk to anyone she doesn't know, but Yoni has got sooooo many friends, but are they all really friends? Listen in on the tea about our own friendships and much more.

Ep.8 From Passion to Career

Ep.8 From Passion to Career

"what do you want to be when you grow up?" they asked..."what are you passionate about?" they asked..."follow your dreams" they said...BUT is that really what they meant? We've all heard those things all too often since we can remember. First, it's the after-school programs you do for fun, then high school hits, and people are asking you what you're interested in so you take the required prerequisites. You're in your last months of high school and are scratching your head looking at a university pamphlet figuring out what career you want for the rest of your life. And so life goes on, from when we are young until we die, passion should be what drives us into our dream career (or so they say). In this week's episode, Alia and Yoni address their own dreams ending, how they transitioned into new careers, why they think society has it all wrong, and more.

Ep.7 The End of Hot Girl Summer

Ep.7 The End of Hot Girl Summer

Like all trends on the interwebs "hot girl summer" has come, has flourished, and has fled because September is finally here and honestly we are feeling pretty relieved summer is coming to an end. Along with longer days, sunshine, walks on the beach, and sweaty elbow/knee creases, summer also brings along the pressure to constantly live your best life 24/7. Listen in on how different our summer experiences have been from each other and why we are excited for the fall days.

Ep.6 Trust Issues

Ep.6 Trust Issues

trust issues… we all have them, we all deal with them differently but sometimes we let them get the best of us especially when it comes to relationships. In one of the most raw, uncensored, and honest episode yet, Alia and Yoni dive deep into their relationship and how they’ve realized that at the end of the day communicating is the only we trust can be built over time.

Ep.5 Changing Your Mind

Ep.5 Changing Your Mind

When was the last time you changed your mind mid argument and admitted that you were wrong the whole time? We all have our way of arguing and it often may feel like we can’t change our minds once we’ve argued our point simply out of our own pride. Listen in on how we deal with arguments and personal revelations we’ve had recently.

Ep.4 What's a Summer Body?

Ep.4 What's a Summer Body?

Summer is the time to live your best life, many people say, but there are also a few pressures that come with the sunshine. From living your hot girl summer dreams, to getting summer ready, and whatever other summer plans you have, it can catch up to your mental health. In this episode we get very personal tackling these topics and more while we come up to a solution on how to just live life with balance and self-love.

Ep.3 "Split the Check"

Ep.3 "Split the Check"

Okay let's be real, talking about money is not always easy and can get kind of uncomfortable. From friendships to relationships, money talk can sometimes get in the way especially when it comes to splitting the check, so in this episode, we will share our VERY honest and maybe slightly controversial thoughts around how we each think and talk about money with others.  

Disclaimer: these are our own personal opinions and they should not be taken as a reflection or generalization of others; if you plan to listen with your significant other just know some sensitive conversations will come up;

hope you enjoy! @yoniekoto @aliazaita

Ep.2 Relationship Stages & Online Dating

Ep.2 Relationship Stages & Online Dating

We feel like there are so many transition steps and rules around going from the first date to the dating stage, onto being official, and so forth, that we wanted to really dissect how we moved through these stages. From the fact that we met on Tinder, let's just say we have a few opinions we want to share about dating apps in general and why we think you should be on one. If you feel like you are stuck in a dating rut or don't know where to start, we share a few of our own personal/hilarious stories of how we moved from matching on Tinder to dating and onto a long-term relationship.

Even though we’re all very excited to get to socialize, see old friends and meet new people, our social skills are definitely out of practice. How do we gain back our confidence in social settings, and navigate meeting new people post-pandemic?
