Sometimes I'll be talking to myself for about 10-15 minutes, sometimes I'll have different guests for some "coffee talk" for at least half an hour. If you are interested in following my little journey Within The Matrix, tune in on Sundays (5 P.M. CEST) at almost every available streaming service.

These books are worth 5 stars *chef's kiss*, sprinkled with emotional damage
After a little 2 weeks break, I'm back with an episode about books! I asked you guys on Instagram a couple of weeks ago, if you'd like to hear some content about books, and the response was pretty positive, so here you go! Today I bring to you my 5 star reads as of now, with books I read a long time ago and one that I'm currently reading but already loving. Unfortunately there is not going to be a video (but a standstill image) accompanying today's episode, because I accidentally destroyed the footage while trying to export it to my computer lmao :)

Why the KimYe drama is dangerously toxic (a deep dive into toxic relationships)
Kanye West has been making headlines for some weeks now, following the news that his now ex-wife Kim Kardashian is dating Pete Davidson. He even managed to trend on Twitter ON THE SUPERBOWL NIGHT ABOVE THE SUPERBOWL... It has become a shit show and it's honestly a little bit concerning, if we think of them as two regular people who just happen to have over 304 MILLION Followers on Instagram together. As of Wednesday Kim K has obtained the divorce from Kanye, so keep that in mind when listening to the episode, thats the info we didn't have just yet. So this episode is basically dedicated to toxic relationships and obviously we dive a little bit deeper into the KimYe Situation, but we also cut on other well known celebrity toxic relationship drama of the last couple of years (Brangelina and Jelena for instance) and by the end of the episode we analyse why toxic relationships seem to be "popular" these days and what tips (Dolly) would give new, fresh relationships in order to NOT become toxic. Please remember, that this episode is also available on Youtube, where I added timestamps, so feel free to check that out as well. You'll find the links in my Linktree, as always. I really hope you enjoyed this little semi care free episode and I'll be looking forward to reading your comments on my instagram @podcast.withinthematrix or in the comment section of the Youtube video. This episode is also available on YouTube so feel free to check it out over there too.

What It's Like to Not Have One Place to Call Home / Growing Up With Three Different Cultures
THIS EPISODE WAS RECORDED ON FEBRUARY 17th, 2022. It is not my place and duty to spread information about what is going on in the war between Russia and Ukraine. This Podcast is not intended to dive into such complex geopolitical issues. If you want to inform and educate yourself about the war in Ukraine and what exactly is going on right now, there are plenty of other podcasts, news outlets, social media accounts, etc. that are dedicated to and specialize in exactly that. If you clicked on this and future episodes, I assume that you want to consume something else that has nothing to do with world politics, war, etc. so please, always stay respectful and stand in solidarity towards others.
In today's Podcast Episode of Within The Matrix, I sat down with Zejnep to talk about growing up within three (!) different cultures. We had a blast and I hope you have just as much fun listening to this debauchery as well! This Episode is available on YouTube as well, so feel free to check that out and share it with your friends and family! Also don't forget to subscribe to the Channel on YT and on Spotify to never miss an upload, follow @podcast.withinthematrix on Instagram and rate the podcast 5 * on Spotify, if you enjoy the episodes :) Much love and see you in another one xoxo, Michela A.

Episode 2: Why Are You Obsessed With Our Ethnicity? - Coffee Talk w/ Seetal and Dolly
Disclaimer: This episode is not meant to serve as hate against anyone or as an exemplary representation of all People of Color, since everyone's got the right to have a different opinion on the topic. There's a reason why I'll call this kind of interviews/conversations "Coffee Talk with ..." and not "expert analysis about [insert sociological phenomenon]".
In today's episode of Within The Matrix, I sat down with my beautiful and intelligent friends Seetal (@lifeofseetal) and Dolly (@98.doll) to have a Coffee Talk about Ethnicity vs. Nationality and many other aspects around being international/multicultural. We've certainly came to terms with our identities and how we are perceived by other people. Now I'm interested in your opinion though. Feel free to answer the poll in today's episode (just available on Spotify) and if you too want to be featured in one of my future podcast episodes, feel free to contact me on Instagram @mixhela.ga or @podcast.withinthematrix ! But now, grab some snacks, hydrate yourselves and enjoy today's episode of your new favorite podcast.
