But as always, we'll also explore strategies for overcomi...

This might not be like our usual fun, out-of-pocket banter episodes but it's definitely an important one. In response to some comments on our past couple of episodes, Alia had some things she needed to get off her chest. This isn't an easy topic as it's complex, layered, and controversial. We wanted to delve into some unpopular feminist opinions that we haven't heard much in today's popular discourse and get to the bottom of certain perspectives. We know this might sting some listeners as everyo...

We've become so used to receiving constant stimulation from our environment that now silence has become uncomfortable. When doing chores, driving, eating by ourselves, or walking on the street, many of us always accompany it with some kind of entertainment. Some of us listen to music, others a podcast or play a tv show in the background. We somehow always choose noise or something else over nothingness. But why is silence so important and what do we take away from ourselves when we don't leave s...
