AD408: Prize Picks, Who’s Really the Prize: Hunter, HOV, Ho’s, & Has-beens

On the 8th episode of the BLC Pod: After Dark Edition, the crew—Nic Nice, SNM Jones, Kim Jones, Delilah Belvedere, Just J, and Delvin The Expert—come together for the final episode of 2024, just before the Christmas season. The episode kicks off with lighthearted banter about the perils of aging before diving into a lively debate about Travis Hunter’s relationship. The crew revisits previous predictions, discussing whether young couples deserve grace and how insecurities in relationships can impact personal growth, particularly when the “man is the prize.” Next, 50 Cent’s remarks about Jay-Z and Beyoncé spark a spirited conversation on whether successful partnerships amplify or diminish individual accomplishments, exploring the dynamics of business, marriage, and choosing a partner who elevates you. SNM calls back to Delilah Belvedere’s book, diving into the taboos of female sexuality. The group debates the fine line between sexual liberation and being labeled, exploring the distinctions between sluts, hoes, and freaks.

Finally, the crew reviews Later Daters, a Netflix series about older singles re-entering the dating pool. They unpack the challenges of dating later in life, including evolving expectations, personal growth, and adapting to modern dating norms in a world where chronic singledom is common. Wrapping up the year with holiday vibes and reflections, the crew signs off with a heartfelt thank-you to listeners and a promise to return in January.
