You can talk to him about your day, ask him about his day and from that you two can go ahead and have an endless strings of topic

Share with each other how is day went, and how your day went. And, talk, talk. Texting is good when you are running. But, dial his number, and talk-talk. :)

You can talk about your life, how much you love him, how you feel, vice-versa. If he is your boyfriend, you can probably talk about anything.
You can talk about anything, it can range from what you did today or what your week looks like or you could talk about what you saw on tv the other day. You could ask them how they have been doing and or if there really nothing you can think of, you can always result in playing 21 questions, regardless if you know them really well, there will always be parts about someone you won't know yet.

Anything. Your day, feelings, family, friends, anything really. Just see how the conversation goes.:)
you can talk about your day, school, work, when you guys will hang out next. how you are feeling. talk about stuff you did that day
You should be able to talk about anything from your deepest darkest secrets to how good the weather is today. There isn't a real limit although if you're a new couple I'd skip on the deepest darkest secrets for a while

Hmm.. A couple ideas: You can talk about your day, how you feel, goals/aspirations, things you have in common, a good movie you just watched or a good book you recently read.
When talking to my boyfriend on the phone, I usually discuss my day at work, what I did today, and my family.
Talk about things you both like, or things you know he likes. People feel good and comfortable and excited when they are given the opportunity to explain or talk about their hobbies, things they love (my boyfriend loves music and playing guitar with all his heart and his eyes shine when he talks about it).

I don't think there should be any limitation, when it comes to such a personal relationship. Basically everything. :)

Anything! The next date you'll have, silly fun questions! You can talk to them about anything! Just know that they're there for you!
Your boyfriend is usually someone who is your great friend and a person you happen to have feelings for. So you should not hesistate to talk about anything with him. It can be a summary of your day or an advice you need. If you're feeling low share your feelings. Or just generally any conversation on any topic serious or funny. You should feel free to hold any conversation you want till the time he is okay with talking about the topic.
The same as you would talk to him if he was in front of you! Your day, dreams, relations, and not just talking, ask about his dreams, day, problems... Communication is essential in a relationship

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. :)
