This podcast centers around different dates and relationships I've had with men, but it's not just about dating. It’s about what it takes to form a relationship, where I have fallen short and what I have learned after I picked myself up and dusted myself off. It's also about the humor in a lot of situations that weren't funny at the time, but looking back are hilarious, like my encounters with Mark the Musician, Richard who couldn’t keep his pants up, Allen—Lord of the Silverfish, and Peter, ...

If you have ever done the same, listen in and send your thoughts to me at https://www.faceboo…

In Episode Four, you will hear from a fascinating guest, Rickey Marks – lawyer, author, musician, singer and actress – about her thoughts on the unpleasant yet widespread maxim that “women over fifty are invisible.” Take a wild guess on her (and my) reactions to that concept. They range from “phooey” to somewhat ruder and cruder expressions. What’s…

In Episode Three, I tell you a cautionary tale that, thankfully, turned out just fine. For the longest time, my antennae were not up at all when it came to red flags and potential safety issues, even though I was meeting men on dating sites and did not have any way to know if they were being truthful in their profiles.
