Ilana sits down with Allie—an almost 30-year-old who’s never officially had a boyfriend despite years of dating in New York City. Allie opens up about the emotional complexity behind her dating experience, from living with anxiety to navigating body image struggles and self-doubt. They talk about the challenge of watching friends enter relationships while you’re still trying to “meet someone,” the pressure to keep putting yourself out there, and the importance of not judging yourself for where you are.

TW: This episode may be triggering to those with sensitivities around sexual abuse.
Fresh off a blindsided breakup, Amy Richman dives right back into dating while processing what happened. We debate the idea of soulmates, whether “right person, wrong time” is real, and what romance in relationships truly looks like. She also opens up about how a difficult first sexual experience affected her for years — and how she finally learned to overcome the social anxiety tied to it and love and respect her body.

Ilana and Jake break down a whirlwind 10 days weeks that take them across four states, wrangling three dogs, surviving a six-hour quest for TikTok-famous pizza, and squeezing in a last minute night at the Comedy Cellar. Ilana tackles an unofficial half marathon, while the duo reflects on the agony of losing out on Gracie Abrams tickets, why it's okay that they often travel without each other, Jake’s sudden passion for deep cleaning, and Ilana’s potential breakup with red meat.

But when I got the relationship I always wanted, I realized it didn’t magically fix my insecurities, anxiety, or self-worth.

If you’ve ever believed a relationship would be the solution, this one’s for you.

Carli—friend and now 4x Unfiltered guest (you can catch her most recent episode linked below)—is back for a very real conversation about all the moments we ignore the red flags… until we can’t. We talk about brushing things under the rug, what it feels like to know something’s off but not be ready to walk away, and the pain of breaking up with someone you still love. We get into what it means when someone won’t define the relationship, how to spot the difference between compromising and settling, and the surprisingly wise lessons Carli teaches her young students that we could all stand to learn.

In this episode of Cohosts for Life, we’re taking you behind the scenes of our relationship—not just the milestones you see on social media, but the ones that shaped us the most. We walk through the major (and not-so-major) moments that brought us closer, the surprising moments that felt bigger than expected, and missed moments where we almost didn’t end up together. We also recap Jake’s birthday celebrations and talk honestly about the hate and negativity that comes with sharing your life online.

When this week’s guest decided to freeze her eggs at 30, she thought she was biding her and her husband time. Instead, she was hit with the news that she had a diminished ovarian reserve and that getting pregnant would be far more difficult than expected. In this episode, she opens up about the rollercoaster of fertility treatments, the pressure women carry when it comes to family planning, and how it’s impacted her relationship. We talk about the conversations with friends that helped her feel less alone, the way her husband has shown up for her, and the quiet strength it takes to keep going when the path to motherhood isn’t what you imagined.

Comedian Paul Schoenberg joins us today to get into why “nice guys” are often misunderstood, how texting culture has made rejection feel impersonal and confusing, and why so many people can’t recognize a red flag until they’re paying $2.99 a week just to text someone. We also talk about gluten, group chats, the emotional risk of being earnest, and why knowing what you want isn’t the hard part—finding someone who matches your energy is.

This week on Cohosts for Life, we’re diving deep into a tradition that’s become core to our relationship: the date list. We share how it started, why it’s surprisingly meaningful, and how it's helped us remember little memories that would've been lost to time. We also take a nostalgic walk through five years of Jake’s birthday celebrations — including what we did this past week. And, in true chaotic balance, we also cover: the ridiculous cost of trendy athleisure, why Ilana can’t throw out dried flowers, and Jake’s oddly specific fashion hot take.

We’ve all got something we’re scared to talk about. Maybe you still live at home, haven’t had sex yet, just lost your job, or are quietly working through something painful. So many of us carry shame about parts of our lives we think others will judge, but the truth is, everyone’s going through something. In this solo episode, I’m talking about what it means to truly own your story. Not justify it. Not explain it away. Just own it. I’ll share examples, reframes, and reminders to help you feel more confident in the parts of your life that might feel complicated or hard to say out loud.
