    Fake Ring, Real Scam feat. Nikki Lee | Episode 2

    Send us Fan Mail What happens when your high school sweetheart comes back ten years later with an engagement ring, nearly $2,000 in checks, and a plan to scam you out of your rent money? In this episode of Playing 4 Keeps, DJ sits down with Atlanta host, stylist, mother, grandmother, and full-time student Nikki Lee for a raw and hilarious conversation about modern dating, relationship red flags, long-distance love, bisexuality, healing, and dating with intention. Nikki shares the shocking story of reconnecting with a man who once owed her $400. After months of talking, he flew to Atlanta, proposed in a restaurant, promised her a new life, and appeared to repay everything he owed. By Monday morning, Nikki learned the checks were fake, the engagement ring was glass, and the entire romantic weekend had been funded with money he stole from her bank account. What makes this story even wilder is that Nikki later discovered she was not his only victim. DJ and Nikki also get honest about consistency versus constant communication, recognizing emotionally unavailable partners, protecting your peace, and why Black singles cannot allow good chemistry or great sex to distract them from obvious warning signs. Through every betrayal and dating disappointment, Nikki refuses to become bitter. Her philosophy is simple: never a failure, always a lesson. Follow Nikki Lee on Instagram at @iamnikki_lee.

    From Dating a Scammer to Building a Dating App feat. DJ | Episode 1

    Send us Fan Mail In this reintroduction to Playing 4 Keeps, host DJ Robinson shares the unbelievable dating story that helped inspire her to create a dating app built for Atlanta singles. What started as a same-day dating-app match quickly turned into a whirlwind connection filled with warning signs. Within two weeks, DJ had rented a car in the man’s name, arrived at a Walmart surrounded by police and discovered that the person she had been dating was carrying multiple identities, credit cards and secrets—including the fact that she did not even know his real name. But the story did not end with his arrest. DJ opens up about the decisions she made afterward, the red flags she ignored and the turbulent relationship that followed. She also takes accountability for the healing and personal growth that helped her understand why she remained in a situation she had every opportunity to leave. That experience eventually became part of the foundation for Playing 4 Keeps—an app designed to help singles understand themselves more deeply through emotional intelligence, attachment theory, personality assessments and intentional dating. DJ also introduces the new direction of the podcast, shares one of her biggest dating red flags and pet peeves, and invites Atlanta singles to bring their funniest, wildest and most meaningful dating stories to the show. The goal is not just to find more matches. It is to help people know themselves, recognize the signs and choose better—because real love starts with self-awareness.
