    CVAD Episode 114: Work Wives, Celebrity Crushes, And Are You A Exhibitionist or Voyeur

    Grown and unfiltered. On this episode of Conversate After Dark, Marv and Tay get into the honest stuff most people will not say out loud. They open with a wild icebreaker, then get into exhibitionist versus voyeur, how trust and comfort unlock real intimacy, and the difference between jealousy and intuition. From there it turns into astrology, overthinking, and why everybody has a tell, before the debate everyone has an opinion on: the work wife and work husband, and whether there is always a hierarchy in relationships. They close with the fun stuff, celebrities pulling fans on stage and where the line is, a hilarious Tank meet and greet story, celebrity crushes that get a pass, and the ultimate would you or wouldn't you: could you date someone who cannot stand your favorite artist. Mature audiences only.

    CVAD Episode 113: Bad Date Horror Stories, Setting Boundaries & Would You Wait?

    On this episode of Conversate After Dark, we get into the stuff people feel but don't always say out loud. We open with doing nice things for yourself, why it's so hard for the dependable one to set a boundary, and the difference between saying no and just backing away from people. Then it gets fun. We trade our worst date stories: the drunk date who got tossed from a Charlie Wilson show, the night a date pulled over to confront her other man, and the lunch-on-the-beach that turned out to be a married man holding checks hostage. Plus the question everybody has an answer to: would you wait if your person had to do a bid, and what does holding somebody down actually mean? We also get into crazy-chick red flags, why "good guys finish last" is a choosing problem, and the line between hood and street. 📧 Guest/Topic submissions: cvadthepodcast@gmail.com 🌐 www.conversateafterdark.com 🎧 Streaming everywhere 📺 Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/R-a1LP7Ecy4 📩 Want to be a guest or suggest topics?
