About This Podcast
Friends and obsessives Eve and Ksenia examine the parasocial relationships that define our weeks, months, and lives. Each episode is a lighthearted yet profound look into the prominent(ish) figures who have been living in our heads rent free and what they can teach us about culture, relationships, and our own selves.
