Why do relationships that look perfect from the outside end up unhappy? Is it true that the best gift for a daughter is Islam? And can truly infuriating neighbors make you fall back in love with life?

Hi, I'm Nasta! And I'm Sim. This is We Relate, a podcast where we talk about the relationships of characters from world culture — in movies, shows, books, and more.

We talk about relationships through stories and through our own lives, imperfections and all. We call things by their real names and try to understand the logic behind people's actions.

This podcast is for anyone who wants honest, human companionship and candor — without expert anAlysis.A new conversation every week.

First episode — August 15th.
