  • Let's Talk About Sex
    Apr 13 2026

    Let's talk about sex. Or more specifically—why we're waiting.
    Dr. Dee and Oscar are both over 40. Both have been married. Both have had children. And both have made the decision to wait until marriage—again.
    In this episode, they break down why the sanctity of marriage matters more to them now than ever, how purity culture has historically burdened women while letting men off the hook, and what it's really like to make this choice when you're grown and fully aware of what you're giving up.
    It's vulnerable. It's honest. And yes, it's still a little fun.

  • The State of Black Dating in 2026
    Mar 29 2026

    What does success really look like in the dating pool — and who gets to define it?

    In Episode 4, Dr. Dee and Oscar unpack the trending conversation about dating Black men in 2026. From the hidden economy behind dating successful people to the generational patterns quietly running our relationships, we're getting into all of it.

    We also tackle the "traditional woman" conversation — because when men reference traditional values, they often point back to an era when women had no rights. That's not tradition. That's survival dressed up as preference.

    Marriage used to be about survival. Today, we need partners who have done the work and come to the table healed. Big difference.

    If you're navigating dating, faith, and figuring out what healthy actually looks like — this one is for you.

    Said what we said. 🎙️

    In this episode:

    • The real economy of dating successful men and women
    • Generational dating patterns and where they come from
    • Traditional values vs. trauma patterns
    • Why marriage used to be about survival — and why that has to change
    • What it means to come healed into relationship

  • Called to Preach But CHAOTIC at Home?!
    Mar 15 2026

    This week Dr. Dee and Oscar are pulling back the curtain. We're unpacking a viral reel that exposed what too many people are living but nobody wants to say out loud: How can you be called to preach and still be completely chaotic at home? Why is the church celebrating image while intimacy is dying behind closed doors?
    We're talking covenant over compatibility, character over title, and why sitting in the discomfort is the only way to build something real. If the pew version of your relationship looks nothing like the private version… we're talking to YOU.
