This week, we’re joined by comedian Keysha E for a fun, slightly chaotic, and very honest conversation about dating, attraction, and figuring out what we actually want. From celebrity crush debates to whether chemistry is just a toxic addiction (yes, we said it), we get into the difference between a good partner and a good time.<br /><br />We also talk about pretty privilege in comedy, dating in Atlanta vs. LA, finances in relationships, and why “safe” might not be as boring as it sounds. Plus, we answer a listener question about feeling lost in life and share a CockTales story that involves a FaceTime mishap you absolutely don’t want to experience 😭<br /><br />We kick things off getting to know Keysha—from her journey into comedy to what it’s like being an attractive woman in a space where people don’t always expect you to be funny . The conversation quickly turns into dating (of course), where we unpack everything from celebrity crushes and short king debates to the reality of dating in Atlanta versus Los Angeles.<br /><br />We get into a deeper conversation about chemistry vs. compatibility—are we chasing that instant spark because it feels good, or because we’ve been conditioned to? And are we overlooking genuinely good partners because they don’t give us that “high”?<br /><br />We also talk about marriage, financial conversations in relationships, independence, and what it looks like to build with someone instead of waiting until everything is perfect.<br /><br />In this week’s advice segment, we respond to a listener who’s questioning the point of life and whether everything feels like a performance. It turns into a real conversation about purpose, slowing down, and figuring out what actually brings you joy.<br /><br />And of course, we wrap things up with CockTales—where Keysha shares a story involving FaceTime that goes very, very left.<br /><br /><br /><i><b>Offers From Our Sponsors:</b></i><br /><b>Erika Lust</b><br />Get 45% off with code COCKTALES at <a href="https://www.erikalust.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Erikalust.com</a><br /><br /><b>Super.com</b><br />Start building your credit the easy way.
