Better Half with Stas & Vic

Welcome back to a very haunted edition of Baddie 2 Baddie. In honor of Halloween, we asked you guys to call in with your scariest stories - from real ghost encounters and things you still can’t explain to dates so terrifying they might as well be paranormal. We’re listening to your calls, sharing our own thoughts, and deciding what’s scarier: the supernatural or the men you’ve dated. 
Turn the lights off, pour yourself a drink, and prepare to be sufficiently spooked.

You asked, we answered… without knowing what the other person was going to ask. This week, we let you guys submit the questions and blindly asked each other everything from first kisses and our biggest icks to whether we’ve ever liked the same guy and what we’d assume the other did if they got arrested tonight.

Basically, no topic was off limits and some of your questions really got us thinking.

New York Fashion Week, but make it Better Half. We’re recapping our very glamorous (and slightly unhinged) trip to NYC: bidding on diamonds, sipping Honey Deuces at the US Open, surviving food poisoning, and getting Vic to the after party.

This week, we’re joined by our close friend, entrepreneur, and star of The Girls, Yris Palmer!

Yris opens up about the hustle that got her to where she is today—from building Star Lash and getting involved with SEV to learning how to navigate success while still wanting the people around her to thrive too. We talk about how we all became friends, why Yris believes there’s room for everyone to win, and the importance of having women around you who genuinely want to see you succeed. From hustling and building businesses to friendship, motherhood, representation, and love, this is Yris like you haven’t heard her before.

our next guest needs no introduction… but to us, she’s just our best friend. Stas has known Kylie since 2009, and Victoria actually used to work for her—which is how we met. today, we’re skipping the Kylie everyone thinks they know and getting into the Ky we know and love. we’re talking her love for cats, what really happened at her birthday party, her Knicks wardrobe, the infamous laptop story, and why the internet thinks we secretly hate each other.

basically, it’s less of an interview and more of a best-friend catch-up. welcome to the group chat x

Today we're sitting down with one of the most respected OB-GYNs in the country, Dr. Thais Aliabadi, to have the conversations every woman deserves to hear but so many of us were never taught. After Stas’ own experience with endometriosis, we wanted to understand why conditions like endometriosis and PCOS can be so difficult to diagnose, what symptoms women should be paying attention to, and how to become a better advocate for yourself when you know something is off. Dr. A walks us through testing, treatment options, and why women’s healthcare should never be one-size-fits-all. Whether you're in your 20’s, 30’s, 40’s, trying to have kids, trying not to have kids, or just trying to better understand your body, this conversation is packed with information every woman (and honestly, every man) should know.
