Better Half with Stas & Vic is like a chic members-only club disguised as a show — and yes, your name’s on the list. Hosted by Stas Karanikolaou and Victoria Villarroel, this is where you'll find unfiltered opinions, debrief last night's adventures & have “should we even be saying this?” conversations. Every Wednesday, Stas and Vic talk life, love, pop culture, friendships, and whatever else would normally stay between best friends (and their shared Notes app). Friends pop in, tea gets spilled, and nothing is too serious. Think of Better Half as the group chat you’re obsessed with, the after-party you didn’t leave, and the inside joke you actually get. See you soon!

kylie jenner: keeping up with our best friend - ep. 26
Wednesday, August 26, 2026 • Duration 48:56
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

dr. thais aliabadi: endometriosis, freezing your eggs, and everything we wish we knew sooner - ep. 25
Wednesday, August 19, 2026 • Duration 01:13:24
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.
