BLCAD406: Hall Passes, Hoe-dometers & Why Men & Women Cheat

In this sixth episode of The BLC Pod: After Dark Edition, hosts Nic Nice, SNM Jones, Just J, and Delvin The Expert dive deep into the delicate balance between love, loyalty, and lingering insecurities.

The conversation opens with a buzzworthy moment from college football. Travis Hunter, a breakout two-way player at the University of Colorado, has just delivered the game of his life. Yet as he steps off the field, eagerly looking to share his moment of triumph with his fiance, he’s met with an unenthusiastic and “stank-faced” reception. The hosts debate whether her timing and attitude spell doom for the relationship or if it’s simply an immature misstep by a young partner unprepared for the spotlight.

From there, SNM Jones introduces the concept of hall passes—those controversial relationship “breaks” that allow one partner to step outside the rules of monogamy. Are these passes a tool for strengthening trust and communication, or a ticking time bomb set to detonate the partnership? Just J cleverly ties the idea of hall passes to their original schoolyard meaning, drawing parallels to boundaries, trust, and the freedom granted in healthy relationships.

The conversation then turns to the idea of personal rebranding when it comes to sexual histories. Can a person truly “roll back their hoe-dometer” and present themselves as a different version in the future? Nic raises the question of whether treating sexual pasts like credit scores—factoring in both past missteps and the potential for growth and redemption—is a fair standard. The group wrestles with how much history matters, what forgiveness looks like, and whether judgments based on someone’s past can ever really be left behind.

Finally, they tackle the differences between men’s and women’s cheating, as inspired by comments made by Dr. Umar. Are we conditioned to view infidelity differently depending on who strays, and if so, why? The hosts share varied perspectives—some in agreement, some skeptical—sparking a nuanced dialogue about double standards, emotional contexts, and cultural conditioning.
