It depends on how comfortable you feel with him. What I feel is best is to simply ask about his day and talk about yours! The conversation starts there, and don't shy away from differing opinions! They can be fun!

You can talk about anything you want on the phone! In fact, it is actually the nicest way to learn more and talk more to your boyfriend, because you not only get to learn more about his personality and views, but also about sensuality and warmth. Plus it's a safe distance for you in case you don't like that you hear. So a lot of time should be spent talking to each other about just about anything.
Anything you want to talk about! Just beware of what gets lost in a phone interaction. It is difficult to express everything without seeing the person!
Don't be stressed about it.Just relax and talk to him..that will help..you can talk about your day,your family,your past experiences good and bad ones,your likes and dislikes..you can ask him about his experiences..start off with any of these topics and you will never run short of words .
Talk about your day. Talk about his day. Talk about his interests. Talk about YOUR interests. Talk about each other.
As in text messaging or voice calls? Either way, you could always ask him how his day is or was. what his plans are for the day/night. You both could talk about things that went on while you were apart. Just including him in your day to day thoughts and plans
Talk about hobbies, personal life, favorite things, (books, movies, foods, etc.) or anything else you'd like to share or know from your partner.
Anything and everything! Ask him little questions you wouldn't think to ask. Like what his childhood was like or his favorite Pokemon or things like that! It doesn't have to be deep conversations all the time.
I recommend talking about your lives! Your interests, how your day has been, etc. It's important to feel comfortable talking to your significant other, whether it's about deep stuff like insecurities and fears or just mundane, light stuff!

You can talk with your partner on the subjects that interests you both and share about your day. Consistent and open communication will help you maintain a strong bond in a long term.
Anything and everything as long as you stay safe. Sharing anything that you might regret later is always a bad decision, but this should never apply to emotions. Being emotionally available is one of the best things you can do in a relationship.

Theres always so much you can talk about with your S.O
Obviously the first easy small talk ones, e.g how was your day, how are you etc.
You could do questions to find out more about each other, e.g favourite breed of dog, favourite ice cream flavour etc.
Remember if they're your S.O conversation should naturally flow, so don't overthink it!

You can talk about the things you've done since you've been apart, or talk about things you'd like to do together. Ask his opinion on recent events, or what he thinks of certain people. Since its new years its a good time to consider talking about all the plans you're going to make in the new year, maybe you want to plan a trip together, or go to a concert, or build a robot. It sounds lame but the only limit is your imagination.

emotions, problems, ideas, compassion, sharing plans, interest and sweet talk from time to time, every body needs somebody so make sure you are there for him when he needs you :)

Shows, movies, intimate things, ask how his day went, anything works really. Just be open!! That way he will have more ideas to come and talk to you about.
If you're having trouble with knowing what to talk about with your boyfriend, perhaps try picking a random object/thing or scenario and discuss how you feel about the object/thing or what you'd do in the scenario. It may sound funny, but the funnier it is the more enlightened the conversation can get. Try to think of interesting life stories, too. Those have a way of engaging both people to share their stories! Have fun, feel comfortable, and be honest. :)

You asking this already tells me that your finding it hard to find common grounds with your boyfriend. Conversations usually just flow when you click with someone ask yourself if you two click. But on the other hand it your honestly just confused then talk about anything from how your day was to random stuff.

You can talk to him about how you are feeling, and listen to his feelings as well. Communication is key.
Whatever seems the most natural! I find that the best conversations I have are the ones which come naturally and aren't forced. Maybe, if you're struggling with things to talk about, you could come up with a list of pre-prepared topics of conversation, that way, you'll never run out of things to talk about. Nevertheless, I assume once you both start talking about one topic, that'll open some doors for you to talk about even more! As you keep doing this, the conversations between you guys will become much more fluid and natural; it won't feel forced. Best of luck

What you want to do later in life, childhood stories, hobbies, things to do together. Sometimes silence isn't awkward.

You can speak about how your days went and even make future plans. Another idea is asking him questions so you can get to him even more if the relationship is still new
Talking on the phone with a boyfriend can take for hours, you can talk about pretty much anything it is also a time where you can tell him about your day, about your ambitions or things that you have in common.
If you have a good relationship, you should be able to talk about anything! Your boyfriend should be your best friend, you can talk about what's going on in your life, what you're feeling about personal events, and just whatever pops into your head

anything you guys want!!! thats the joy of relationships be funny,sweet, whatever you want!!!!!!!!!!
Ask him how his day was and tell him about what you did. At the end of a day it is nice to connect with a significant other on the phone if you could not see each other in person that day. Make each other feel listened to.
Daily life of what happened in your work. Future planning to settle down and what are the expectations that we both want to achieve together.
Anything! Anything that you have a common interest of, when you might meet up, make natural conversation, don't force it :)
Talking with your boyfriend/girlfriend on the phone can help relationships. You and your S.O should also be friends and close. When talking on the phone you can talk about anything. Talk about your day or what you are doing. Talk about something you have in common or tell each other jokes.
Literally whatever you want :) The weather, your outfit for the day, about him, honestly anything. So many options!

You can talk about how each other's day has been or you can ask if there's anything interesting happened lately. You can also just be silent together and enjoy each other's company if you don't have anything to talk about. Appreciate him and cherish the relationship :)
