Co-host (male)
So let me ask you this. Is it inappropriate? If you like, man, I'm about to get married. I just want to get it in one last time with somebody else and then I'm ready to go.
Cesar Faraday
Is it inappropriate if she did that? She had sex with another man before you married her?
Co-host (male)
I'm asking, but answer my question first.
Cesar Faraday
The question is yes, it is inappropriate.
Co-host (male)
So is it inappropriate to have a bachelorette party with swinging balls and dicks everywhere and then y', all, he's sitting on you? That's inappropriate.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, that's inappropriate too.
Co-host (male)
But that's. Women do that.
Cesar Faraday
It's. I mean, there it is. What it is. Men do strippers and have naked strippers.
Co-host (male)
Yeah. So that's like. I think the bachelor and bachelor party is like, you know what? I'm gonna have fun one last time.
Cesar Faraday
It doesn't mean you're Sleeping with someone, they'.
Co-host (male)
This is the taking over the game. All right, everybody. Welcome to Truth After Dark.
Cesar Faraday
Do you think that men or women are more toxic? Hello, beautiful people. Welcome to another episode of the Truth After Dark. I am your host, Cesar Faraday.
Co-host (male)
What up? The truth in the building.
Cesar Faraday
So we're gonna get into some current events. Dak Prescott has been in the media a lot. Him and his fiance called off their wedding a week before it was supposed to happen. So there's been a lot of speculation, some saying, like, she didn't want to sign a prenup. And allegedly what really happened is that people at the bachelorette party or bachelor party showed her inappropriate DMs from Dak to other women.
Co-host (male)
Damn, this is my thing. Why y' all wait as friends of hers to the bachelorette party to bring this up? If y' all friends, you gonna contact her? Like, girl, you still wanna do this? Why you wait till we get all the way to a or all of this stuff to be like, oh, look, girl, you sure you wanna marry him? That's just hate. That's just hate. Like, I feel like friends. Yeah, it's a proper time and place to do things. And as a friend, do you bring that awareness to her of that girls are gonna do that anyway? Yeah, but I think you shouldn't wait till the bachelorette party. I don't think when you're like, everything's all planned and, oh, look, look, look. That's just like, come on, man. That's like you just trying to make something good go bad. He obviously love her. He obviously want to marry her. But then this stuff come up. I hate this.
Cesar Faraday
Well, it's not so many their fault.
Co-host (male)
Well, they could have brought it up.
Cesar Faraday
They could have brought it up sooner, but we don't know if it just happened. It's not necessarily their fault. Yes, I agree with what you're saying, as they could have brought it up sooner, but saying he obviously loves her and he obviously, this. He obviously doesn't respect her enough if he's about to marry her and he's DMing a bunch of other women.
Co-host (male)
All right, so let me ask you this. Is it inappropriate if you like, man, I'm about to get married. I just want to get it in one last time with somebody else, and then I'm ready to go.
Cesar Faraday
Is it inappropriate if she did that? She had sex with another man before you married her?
Co-host (male)
I'm asking, but answer my question first.
Cesar Faraday
The question is, yes, it is inappropriate.
Co-host (male)
So is it inappropriate to have a bachelorette Party with swinging balls and dicks everywhere. And then y', all, he's sitting on you. That's inappropriate.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, that's inappropriate too.
Co-host (male)
But that's. Women do that.
Cesar Faraday
It's. I mean, there it is. What it is. Men do strippers and have naked strippers.
Co-host (male)
Yeah. So that's like. I think the bachelor and bachelor party is like, you know what? I'mma have fun. One last.
Cesar Faraday
It doesn't mean you're sleeping with someone. There's crossing a line by going to
Co-host (male)
the stroke saying, who said he was sleeping? You said inappropriate messages.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, but still inappropriate messages.
Co-host (male)
Messages are inappropriate messages. Doesn't mean he's sleeping with her. That's two different things.
Cesar Faraday
Inappropriate. If you found messages in your soon to be wise phone asking men to sleep with her, or can I have dick? Or you're handsome, you're sexy, I want you.
Co-host (male)
We don't know the context.
Cesar Faraday
What I'm asking you is, are you going to still marry her?
Co-host (male)
What you asking me again?
Cesar Faraday
If your soon to be wife, you found DMS of her DMing multiple men flirting, asking them to meet up, asking them for sex, saying that you. They're sexy and they. She wants them. Is that inappropriate? And are you gonna marry her?
Co-host (male)
I think we gotta have a conversation. I don't think like that the position he in. Hell no. Hell no. I'm good. Like, no, she. No, we ain't doing that. Right, right.
Cesar Faraday
And I'm good too.
Co-host (male)
So we don't know the extent or the context of his inappropriate messages though. Was it something sexual? Was it like. I don't. We don't know. Inappropriate is inappropriate and disrespectful. But I don't know the context. Obviously it was enough to say to call off the wedding.
Cesar Faraday
So you're not calling off the wedding because you're saying, hey, what's up? You're calling off the wedding.
Co-host (male)
Obviously it was inappropriate.
Cesar Faraday
You probably are saying something sexual. You're probably insinuating things. And I'm calling off the wedding too, at the end of the day. Because at this point, what are we getting married for?
Co-host (male)
Like, I'm sorry, is it a breakup then?
Cesar Faraday
It's a breakup.
Co-host (male)
It's like, this is off completely.
Cesar Faraday
I'm cool. You disrespected me. Like, and we don't know if it's a continuous thing. Like it's. See, with a woman, it's like, I may see something one time and I might let that slide, but then if I see it again and again, this is. Now you're showing me this Is who you are. And at that point, I'm stupid. Fool me once, shame on me. Shame on you. I mean, fool me twice, shame on me. Like, I'm not gonna let you fool me twice. I'll give you a one time benefit of the doubt. So we don't know if she gave him a benefit of the doubt before. And he was like, no, it's not like that. And now she's seeing all these messages and we' to get married. I don't wanna marry you.
Co-host (male)
She saw the deal on the table. She saw, oh, inappropriate messages and a prenup. I can't take that deal. Maybe if it was no prenup, maybe she takes the deal.
Cesar Faraday
I wouldn't. It just depends what people value.
Co-host (male)
I mean, women love security in a man. He obviously can give that to her.
Cesar Faraday
Do you realize that security is more than money?
Co-host (male)
It's money and it's mental health.
Cesar Faraday
Do you know that? It's emotional security.
Co-host (male)
You're absolutely right.
Cesar Faraday
Physical security. Physical security, meaning I know you're not sleeping with other women and can bring me something. Emotional security. Honestly, I feel like financial security is important, but I put emotional security really high up there for women. We're very emotional and we have a lot of going on with us. And if a man can't protect you emotionally, that doesn't feel safe. It doesn't feel good. It feels scary, and it feels really, like, uneasy. And it dysregulates your nervous system. As a woman, when I feel like I cannot trust my man to just have a conversation with them, to trust them, to be faithful, to trust a lot of things, it makes you feel like I'm not in a good place. And also, it's funny because I on here, I have to. This is something I'm actually talking about. There's a study that shows people who avoid hard and tough conversations are more likely to cheat or disconnect. So people who avoid conflict, instead of resolving it, problems don't get resolved. They usually end up either cheating or they completely disconnect from the relationship. And I can agree with that.
Co-host (male)
All right, before we go any further, women value financial security first on the list. Once they get the financial security, all those other things fall in line. Would you agree with that?
Cesar Faraday
I think most women. Yeah, I would probably agree with that.
Co-host (male)
Well, he didn't show emotional security because of the text. He's given her financial security. So I say move on with the wedding and figure it out in a marriage.
Cesar Faraday
Some people value financial and emotional security the same. Like, it's the Same like, I. If you can't.
Co-host (male)
If I can give you no financial security, and he gave you emotional security.
Cesar Faraday
And what I'm saying is it's the same. You can't have one without the other. Like, there's. There's a lot of women who will take financial security and not emotional security. And there's a lot of women who take emotional security, not financial security, but there's a lot of women who feel like you. If I can't get both, then I don't want to be in this relationship. Like, if I can't be emotionally secure because people will go. A lot of people who take the financial security, they'll end up being in a situation where now they feel empty. All I got is nothing. I got financials. But I'm. I'm depressed. I'm sad. I'm alone. I don't have anybody that I can talk to and really, like, have a conversation with. I don't trust this person. Like, it's a lot that comes with that. So it's just, It's. It's. It's inevitable to end. Like, women need emotional security, and even if they try to trick their self and pretend that they don't, that relationship will end.
Co-host (male)
But not having financial security can lead to that.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, it can lead that insecurity, also everything. That's why I said it's a balance.
Co-host (male)
It goes.
Cesar Faraday
It goes hand in hand. You need to have both, period. Because even with men, men who are not financially secure in a relationship, that they often cheat too, because they need their ego stroked, because they're in a relationship with a woman where they feel like, oh, my God, I'm struggling. She's complaining, like, I need to go over here and get a release type shit. So it's like, there's always something. And that's why I say it goes hand in hand. But emotional security, we talk so much about financial. But emotional security is like gold. And it's really hard for men to give that a lot because men are so logical that they don't understand the emotionality of a woman a lot. And they really don't try to do the work to understand that. So for them, it's like, you're emotional. You're always saying something. You always got this, you always got that.
Co-host (male)
Because it's true. Like, it's true. Women are more emotional.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, we are.
Co-host (male)
You know that. And then little things turn into big things when they don't have to.
Cesar Faraday
Well, I think that little things turn into big things when men can't accept that their woman is emotional and just let them say what they need to say and be like, all right, baby, I got you. Instead, men want to tit for tat. Why are you tit for tatting me? I'm not. What are we doing here? You're a man. Why are you trying to act like me?
Co-host (male)
I think we need to all just grow up, though.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah.
Co-host (male)
Like, sometimes it's just like, man. As a man, you want them to be all soft all the time. You want them to. Like, sometimes you gotta hold the line.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, But I think that there's a level of. There's a level of, like, when you're a man, there's a level of, like, knowing when and how to treat your woman accordingly. Like, I just. I do. I feel like women, we go through hormonal changes, pms, all this stuff, which is real scientific, proven, backed by science. Like, we change hormonally all the time. And a man who can understand that and be like, you know what? All right, baby, Like, I get you. We're good. Like, because you can, as a woman, have a whole emotional week, a whole emotional two weeks because you're PMSing for your period now. You're on your period now. You're stressed out. Like, there's a lot that women deal with when it comes to their emotions that we just want men to do a better job at understanding. And that's it. Like, I get it. And I feel like, as a woman, you shouldn't lean solely on your man to, like, regulate your emotions. No, you should have some emotional regulation on your own. But who wants to have. Like, men should not match energy. You shouldn't match a woman's energy. You're not a woman. Like, you shouldn't be.
Co-host (male)
What is a woman looking for in an emotional.
Cesar Faraday
No, you're not looking for emotional man.
Co-host (male)
Like, like, what are you're looking for? Emotional security. Want. If you don't want us to match
Cesar Faraday
your emotional security, My point is, is if a woman is, like, in her emotions, we're not expecting a man to be, oh, you're. You have this now. I'mma act like this. We not expecting no tit for tat. We're expecting a man to be like, all right, baby. Like, I love you. You good. Like, it takes the smallest thing. Like, men don't realize you could shut the woman up so quick if you're just like, all right, baby, I hear you. I love you. I got you. Don't trip. This is simple. But men just want to instead be like, whatever. I don't what? Like all this stuff, and it's like, just say that and move on. And I think that that's where women and men are getting. I just saw a video about this, and two women have spoken about this recently. I just feel like it's just simple and we both need to do a better job at understanding each other, period, point blank. But I agree, you know, like, just even as women, I think we need to understand men are logical, and sometimes, like, it can hurt our feelings because we're just like, damn, it feels so cold. But, you know, men just don't harp on shit the way we do, and we have to understand that as well. I think we just need to do a better job of understanding both parties.
Co-host (male)
Yeah, I wouldn't have called off the wedding if I was her, though. I'd been like, man, we done went this far. I mean, come on. Like, we done went this far. And for her to see some inappropriate tests. It depends on what they said we can talk about.
Cesar Faraday
But we don't know if it's been a reoccurring issue. And then it's like, damn, how did
Co-host (male)
we get this far then? If it was a reoccurring issue? How do we even get this far?
Cesar Faraday
Because women give men chances. We want to say. We want to believe when a man's like, no, babe, I didn't do that on purpose. I didn't mean that. No, babe, this happened. We. We give men so many chances to excuse the behavior. So then now I look stupid because now you keep playing with me in my face. And now people think women want to be married so bad. I don't want to be committed to a man that's like that. I don't want to spend the rest of my life.
Co-host (male)
You could have been an isolated incident.
Cesar Faraday
I don't. But we don't know that. And even if it is, some people have harder boundaries. I don't deal with. Some women are straight up. I don't deal with that. I don't deal with no level of cheating. Straight up.
Co-host (male)
We get this far for you to call this off. We didn't have all the invitations. I didn't bought out the. The place. I didn't. I didn't flew out all these.
Cesar Faraday
Well, then, because it's like, I don't want to get a divorce. I don't want to go through that. I. I know that I don't want to be with you. See, men don't understand when. Women don't understand when men. I mean, men don't understand when women Start to see certain stuff a man is doing, you lose that soft spot for them, you start to lose respect. And a man doesn't want to be with a woman who doesn't respect him. So if I know in my heart I can't really respect him anymore and I lost that soft spot for him, I'm doing, like, that's really doing him a favor. That's doing you a favor because I'm not going to be able to look at you in the same light anymore. I'm doing you a favor for real by moving on. Like, once I get to that point, I have to walk away because you don't want to be disrespected. I don't really have respect for you after you.
Co-host (male)
You know, if they have kids together.
Cesar Faraday
I don't think they have kids, but no, I don't think they have kids together, but I have to double check. I. I'm not sure, but I. From what I remember, I don't think. Let's see, I can look it up.
Co-host (male)
If they got kids, then.
Cesar Faraday
But they're not by her, right? Yeah, I don't think that they have kids. No, they don't have kids together. Or do they
Co-host (male)
probably. He saved a man. He probably.
Cesar Faraday
I don't know if they have kids. I thought it was from a different lady, but it might be from her.
Co-host (male)
He probably saved. She saved him a lot of bread by doing that.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, they do have two kids. They have two kids together.
Co-host (male)
Yeah, they gotta work that out. They gotta figure that out. He gotta be like, nah, we getting married and we gonna figure it out.
Cesar Faraday
Why, though?
Co-host (male)
Cause we already built something. Why tear it down? Let's, let's. When you get. When you walk that aisle, you know it's for sickness and health. Till death do us part.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, but it's not for you cheating or sending inappropriate messages or, you know, telling what else you did.
Co-host (male)
Let's take that out. The wedding day. Until death do us part. That don't never need to be said by the.
Cesar Faraday
Well, that's my point. She didn't go through the wedding. She didn't want to do the death to us part because she's not going to deal with what you're coming with. Yeah, that's my point. My point is, is I'm not going to walk down the aisle because I'm not going to make that commitment to a man who behaves like this. Whether we have kids or not. People have kids all day and they're not together. Like, what does that have to do with anything? People Are baby mamas and baby daddies all day. So at the end of the day, we were already had two kids before we were ever married. So now we'll co parent. Like, what is the difference? I don't want to commit to a man like men thinks women want so marriage so bad that they'll relinquish their boundaries and their values and their respect. I don't want to be sitting here and make a vow and commit to a man who I know is willing to have this type of behavior, who is disloyal. I can't sit in front of God and the people that I love and make that commitment. Because once I make that commitment, people honor marriage some. And once I personally make that commitment, we really are death to us part. If I get married, if I ever get married, I'm death to us part. We're not. We're not divorcing. We're gonna have to figure this out. So I'm not gonna do that with a man who I know is gonna put me through so much shit that's gonna make me want to die so we could part. I'm not gonna wanna do that.
Co-host (male)
Well, wait, what did you just say? You said, we'll work this out if you get married.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, if I get married. But if we're before the marriage and we not doing this, I'm not gonna go make that commitment before God.
Co-host (male)
So if that had to happen within the marriage, then they gotta figure out
Cesar Faraday
if that would've happened within the marriage. It would be different. Yeah.
Co-host (male)
And again, it's like you said, it's a fine line and boundaries and it must have been something just. It had to be something over the top to where you just. I can't deal no more. Cause they obviously been together for a while, got two kids together, and maybe that was just the final straw. So I don't know.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, it could have been the final straw. They'd been together for a minute and
Co-host (male)
obviously wasn't the first time.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, it couldn't have been.
Co-host (male)
Cause if it's the first time.
Cesar Faraday
Well, I'mma tell you this though. It's so funny because me and my homegirl were talking about this and she said something crazy and it's sad that women even have to experience it, but she was like, you know, the first time a man does something to like break her trust, she's like, remember that time it hurts the most. Right? Like, because what happens is for a woman, men don't realize that's the time it hurts the most. But once you do it again. It's like, okay. Then you do it again. It's like, okay, I'm starting to fall out of love with you now. What's happening is the first time a man cheats or he does anything to break your trust, it hurts so bad. Because as women, even though men have constantly proven that they will do this type of behavior, you have this man on a pedestal and you're like, no, this one is different. He's not going to do anything like that. I trust him. I love him. He hasn't done anything. I know. And you have this hope that you're like, I actually met someone who's not going to do this, who's different for me. And then when they do shatters you, if it breaks you so bad, and it's like, damn, I really thought this was different. And then after, when you find something again, you're just. It gets. It get. The pain lessens every time. And then by the time you're on their third, fourth, you, you're ready to leave because you're like, oh, it's like you get numb. You're like, oh, I expect this now. I don't even expect you. I don't even look at you as someone like, I want to leave me or I could trust because you lack discipline, you lack loyalty, you lack honesty. Why do I look at you? You don't. Those are not leadership qualities. I don't look at you as a leader. So now I'm losing respect and I'm losing love as time goes on to the point where you just become numb. But that first time, that first time
Co-host (male)
you're broken, well, she probably lost respect at the time.
Cesar Faraday
You lose respect, you lose respect. And who knows, he might have been doing the marriage and the engagement because he messed up so bad.
Co-host (male)
Yeah.
Cesar Faraday
You already had two kids together forever long. Like, you probably did this because you're like, okay, let show you this and that. And she probably got to the point where like, I'm not going to do this. I'm not going to make a commitment in front of all these people and end up divorcing you. I'm not. Because that's going to. Divorce is hard. Obviously, you know, it's more than a breakup. It's more intense and it's a lot. And nobody wants to have to go through that. So, you know, you're already going through a public this, and this is not even the divorce, and you already going through all of this. So, you know, you as a woman nowadays too, it's like, you want to think about, like, if I ever get the opportunity to get married or whatever, I. It's like, you got to, it's going to have to be someone that I'm like, yeah, I know you're not going to make a fool of me or embarrass me because once I stand before God, it's more for me a commitment to God, like, I'm going to really rock with that and we going to make this work. But if I know you're going to put me through a whole bunch of shit in order to do that, why am I going to do that? Like, why, why? What's the point? Because like, for instance.
Co-host (male)
So let me ask you, how do women look at it? Like, all right, he put you through some, it's over with, you move on, you get a new guy, he put you through some. Is this a cycle now?
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, it's a cycle. So what happens is like, you pray,
Co-host (male)
you find a guy that's not gonna stay in that.
Cesar Faraday
No, you don't, you don't, you don't.
Co-host (male)
Once you're gone, you're kiss bullshit than dealing with.
Cesar Faraday
No, you're cool. Yeah, you're cool once because it gets too deep into one person's bullshit to where you can't even get with them sexually anymore. You can't, you can't. Like, I can't get past this with you, so I don't want you. So even if I go to a new man and he cheats or he does something like, I rather do it here because it's not as built up long time resentment, I can't do it with the person. Once you meet a threshold with a man, as a woman, it's over. Yeah, it's really over. Like that's what men don't realize. Even if we want to be with you.
Co-host (male)
Yeah.
Cesar Faraday
Even if we're like, I wish, I don't want to end this relationship. I don't want to not get married. I don't want to not be with the person I'm supposed to like have a kid with. I don't want to do this. Even if you have all those things that you don't want, you physically cannot feel soft again. You physically cannot feel safe again. And if a new man does it, then it's a new situation. And you pray and hope that he might mess up one time and it's not again. And you, you keep figuring it out until you can find a man that actually respects you. But I'm, I'm gonna keep trying and get with somebody who is actually like, you know, I got you, baby, to where I can feel safe and I can feel good because I don't regret. I've been. I've been in that situation. I've left someone and I got with a new person and they did something. I don't ever feel like I should have stayed with him. No. Because it's gone.
Co-host (male)
Yeah.
Cesar Faraday
It's over for that. Like, I. I can't. And that's why men have to understand when you're doing stuff and you're doing dirt, it's not even about if she's gonna forgive you. It's about, I can't forgive you. If I want to, I could forgive you, but I can't feel that way with you no more.
Co-host (male)
Yeah.
Cesar Faraday
Like, I remember telling my. The guy that I was with for years, like, I just don't feel that way about you anymore. I just. I can't. Like, I want to, but I really can't. I really can't. And I've tried therapy, but I just. I can't get past this anymore.
Co-host (male)
Yeah.
Cesar Faraday
You know, I can't feel soft with you and safe with you anymore. And that's a real feeling. Shoot your shot on prize fix and get $50 instantly in lineups when you play your first $5. That's right.

Co-host (male)
You know what? I stay rocking with basketball and my Boston squad. Jason Tatum is back. More threes, more points, more assists. More, more, more, more.
Cesar Faraday
I am so riding with you. And to me, the best part is that I got all of my friends hooked on prize picks and now they're always hitting me up, asking me about my lineups.
Co-host (male)
Love that. And there's a new feature alert. Prize picks now has early payouts. If your player gets off to a hot start, you now have the option to cash out those winnings before the game even finishes.

Download the prizepix app today and use code TAD and get $50 in lineups after you play your first $5 lineup. That's code TAD to get DOL lineups after you play your first five dollars lineup. Price picks. It's Good to be right. Like Lamar Odom, he basically, he went on a podcast recently and says that he regrets cheating and stepping out on Khloe Kardashian and that he mentally will be paying for that for the rest of his life. And he basically said, like, he made a commitment. Like, he prayed to God. They were both, you know, God fearing and he was praying to God that he was going to do right by this person. And he did not, you know, because I know he was married before her, I think, wasn't he? I'm not sure. But he said that this relationship with her, he was trying to do different. And he prayed to God, like, I'm going to do different this time. And he didn't. So he said to make that mistake twice. He said it killed him. And he mentally is now paying for that for the rest of his life. Cause it's one time to do it once and then now to do it again is like blowing in me saying, but, you know, life be life and life be life. And it is what it is. Speaking of that, Dwight Howard is currently going through a divorce.
Co-host (male)
Damn. Why even get married if all. Look at. Listen to all these. This is like horror story time right now.
Cesar Faraday
Well, I think that this all has to do with man saying they want peace after disrupting it. I hate when men are on. They're like, I want peace. I want peace. Yeah, I want to be peaceful. I just want to be chill. Well, you did a whole bunch of to make it non peaceful and to make me feel crazy about. And now you want peace so bad.
Co-host (male)
What's the latest on his situation?
Cesar Faraday
Well, he filed for divorce. That's the latest thing we seen.
Co-host (male)
Damn. They was only together for like a year.
Cesar Faraday
Well, they already was having public issues before they got married or when they just got married. So, like talking about divorce, like, after like a month of being married. So I don't know. I also think that, like, keeping your information public and like, letting us all know what's going on is just like, you shouldn't do that. Keep us out the conversation. We don't need to know when y' all get a divorce, when y' all getting. I hate people who go to the Internet for stuff. That really is the most unattractive thing anyone can do for me.
Co-host (male)
Like, social media has ruined relationships. So many. Now we're in an era to where, like you said with the Dak Prescott DMing, inappropriate messaging or here, this is what we doing in our relationship. Public, public, public. And everybody knowing everything about y'. All to where now you allow other people to interfere in it and attack you even more. Because the more this is what women and men do when they get married and then your DMs get in flux, it just opens up the door for so many negative comments or just negative influences that it can creep into a woman's mind or a man's mind. Because now when you make it public and somebody's like, oh, yeah, I seen her here, or I know she used to, all of that, and then it just creates doubt. And it's just like, I just feel like most relationship, especially with public figures, because that's what we talking about right now, should be main private. And the more private you get. Oh, but the more privacy you put in a relationship, the less people are gonna come in and try to attack the relationship, to try to.
Cesar Faraday
I agree.
Co-host (male)
Break it up. Because people hate to see other people happy.
Cesar Faraday
I agree.
Co-host (male)
I feel like a lot of times you got your genuine friends and family that want to see you happy, but then you got people that are just like, huh, let me see. Let me see if I can break this up. Oh, here's my window of opportunity. And it just opens up the door for too much other things to creep in.
Cesar Faraday
I agree with that. I think privacy is key. I think keeping stuff private and to your close to your heart is important. I agree with that.
Co-host (male)
But I hate seeing everything play out over social media. It just gets messy and there's no recovery. Once public embarrassment is involved, it's hard to go back. Like, that's one thing for a woman. A woman hates public embarrassment. You know, you can have stuff and it's kept in house and, you know, you don't know what's going on. You don't know what they're going through. But on social media, everything looks. Looks happy. But once it goes public, the relationship has a such a strain on it that it's hard to recover from that. And that's why I hate when people take it to the, oh, this is what we going through. Like, all of that is unnecessary. Like, I just, I'm not.
Cesar Faraday
I don't like anybody who goes to
Co-host (male)
school, and I don't like public embarrassment.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, anything. Who's going to the Internet? That's blowing me?
Co-host (male)
It's because you're not looked at as a fool now when you go out in public. But if it's private and everybody ain't in y' all business, you could probably deal with it a little better, right?
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, you could deal with it a
Co-host (male)
little better when it's public. It's like, damn, you just feel like everybody looking at you a certain way, talking behind your back, doing all this, and. And it just. It's just too much. It's just too much built up when you have to go out the house every day for. To have that feeling. Like, you know, So I encourage, you know, relationships. Whether it's.
Cesar Faraday
I mean, people are gonna talk about you regardless, though, whether it's a public
Co-host (male)
figure, whether it's this, like, public embarrassment.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, but it's like people assume things like something can come out on the Internet and they don't know the real about, oh, this is that. And then everyone's sending it to each other, talking shit about you sending it here, sending it here. You can't even go to the damn gym in your business. Like, stuff happens like that regardless. And it's just about how you're built. And if you're built to go through that. Like, there are certain people who are not, and there's certain people who just be like, whatever, I don't even care, you know? Like, it is what it is. Like, for me, I can. I'm one of those people that I could, like, literally probably deal with public embarrassment. I think the bigger fear for me is how I feel about my partner. Like, how am I feeling about you after this is how, like, am I going to be able to look at you the same? You know, like, it makes it harder with people in your business, though. And that's why I do believe privacy is important. But like I said, I feel like we have to be real about, like, how do me and the person feel? Like, let's drown out the noise of everybody else. Because people are always going to say something, even if you're not public and even if you're not a public figure. Just people in the streets, like, oh, her man or her, she did this and he did that. Like, people always want to talk because people always want to find a reason why your shit is not better than theirs.
Co-host (male)
Yeah.
Cesar Faraday
Okay, so we're going to get into our segment. This is the More or Less segment brought to you by Price Picks, where you can win real cash by playing just more or less on your favorite players. Use code TAD and get $50 instantly in lineups when you play your first $5. Okay, so we're gonna talk about Little Boosie. So Little Boosie recently said on, like, he was on a show or something and it's a viral clip, but he was like, I don't care what no one says. I need a woman. And he was Like I feel like men need women more than they like to admit that they do. And not just sexually. He was like, sometimes I just want my woman around and to lay up with. He just values a woman's presence and he just feels like a woman just gets there, gets his together, like gets him feeling better, motivated, gets his life cracking. And like just her presence alone just brings that energy. And a lot of women are like, the clip is going viral because a lot of women are like, okay, damn, we don't hear men talking like that as often anymore. What are your thoughts?
Co-host (male)
You know, it's to each his own, you know. And you know, just like I think in boosie case, you know, he getting a little older so he like, you know, he ain't doing the same things he used to do. And he like, you know, I need that, you know, I need that comfort. You know, women do bring comfort to the man when it's the right one. It depends on the woman. Like you said, it can't be any old woman just for sex and all that. It gotta be one that bring comfort, emotional stability that just uplift you, keep you motivated things in that nature. And you know, some men need that little kick in the ass, you know, from a woman. You know, sometimes men aren't self motivated and you know, get into a place in their life to where, you know, depression starts kicking in, you know, and a woman can uplift you. And I get what he's saying, you know, in a certain space in your life you want to feel that. Cause as men we don't want to be ones to die alone, you know, you want somebody that's going to take care of you, uplift you emotionally, physically, all of those things. So I get what he's saying, you know, and willing to provide that.
Cesar Faraday
But you just think that that's an older man thing. You don't think that all men, like a lot of men feel that of all ages.
Co-host (male)
Feel exactly what? Say it again, again.
Cesar Faraday
Like it's just simple like that women presence.
Co-host (male)
I just don't think people need a woman. I don't think women need a man.
Cesar Faraday
It's a want regardless of like say
Co-host (male)
if you're independent, if you're independent and you at peace with yourself. Listen, I live my whole life with my mom as a single and she didn't get married until she was like 70, you know, and so I come up to see like, damn, my mama didn't need no man, she didn't need it.
Cesar Faraday
But it would have made her life easier if she would have had the household.
Co-host (male)
She wanted that.
Cesar Faraday
But we're not. We're not like you're. I don't think we should fix it on the need or want. I'm just talking about. No, I'm just talking. I don't think anyone needs anything except oxygen and health.
Co-host (male)
People need that. People need a woman. People. It's hard for people to be alone. Yeah, but it really is for some people. For a lot of people, it's not.
Cesar Faraday
It's never a need. You can make it happen.
Co-host (male)
But the point is, it is a need. You talk to people like people need that stimulation from a woman. Men actually. Like my cousin. Like, he wanted and needed. Like.
Cesar Faraday
But you're the one who just said you don't think anyone needs a woman or man. You know you just said that, right?
Co-host (male)
You just said wanted and needed.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, you said you don't think anyone needs a woman or man.
Co-host (male)
I think women should need that people want.
Cesar Faraday
So what are you saying right now? Cause nothing you just said made sense.
Co-host (male)
It does make sense.
Cesar Faraday
No, you just said. Do you know what you just said?
Co-host (male)
No, I know what I just said.
Cesar Faraday
Okay. All right.
Co-host (male)
I know exactly what I said. Yeah.
Cesar Faraday
I'm so confused.
Co-host (male)
Like, we don't need it, but we want it. But then there's some people that actually need it.
Cesar Faraday
You just said you don't think anybody needs a man.
Co-host (male)
There are some people that need it.
Cesar Faraday
Okay, that's what I'm saying. But that's not the question I was asking. I was just asking, do you feel like that's just an older man thing? The people who value a woman's presence, we're not talking about, like, needs or wants. We're saying he. Lucy said he values a woman's presence. He loves having a woman around because he feels like it makes his life better. He's not saying he needs it. He's just saying, I value it. I feel like it makes me feel better. It makes me feel uplifted. It makes me feel like, you know, someone who's there laying up with me. Like, just the. The. He said that the. The presence of a woman just makes his thought go up in his mind. And you were saying, like, yeah, I feel like an older. You're older for this, or that's him. But I'm saying, do you not think that that's. Like, men of all ages can feel that way? You just think that that's just what older men feel.
Co-host (male)
Oh, that's a tough one. I mean, I think older men more than younger men. Yeah. I mean, just you know, that's his. What he wants. That's what he feels makes him whole, you know, because when you've had it and you lost it and you ain't got it no more, it's just like, damn, I need that. I want that. You know? And that's not all men. But, you know, for him, he see how he is with a woman compared to when he without a woman. And that's what makes me feel like the reason he's saying these things.
Cesar Faraday
Okay, thank you to our good friends at Prizepix, America's number one sports pick app. Use code TAD and get $50 instantly in lineups when you use your first $5. So, anyways, back to what we were talking about. There's a study that reveals women are exhausted from explaining a basic EM needs to men like listening and empathy. I feel like I get it. I get it 100%, but I feel like this is kind of what we just talked about earlier. I feel like men and women just need to do a better job of understanding each other, communicating and communicating. And this is the other study shows that people who avoid hard and tough conversations are more likely to cheat or disconnect. I can agree with that because I feel like. I know I never cheated, but I feel like if I can't have conversations with someone and feel like it could be productive without it being like a shutdown or turn into an argument about things that I'm feeling. I've noticed that I will hold a bunch of in because I'm like, I don't want to feel like I'm nagging or I. I know this person doesn't want to hear this, so I'll just hold it. And then that will make me, like, slowly disconnect because I'll be like, well, I have all these things that I'm holding that could probably be a simple conversation, but I'm afraid to say anything because I don't want it to turn into an argument or the person shuts down or the person gets mad. Like when it's just really me trying to talk about basic things that I
Co-host (male)
feel it's not basic, though. That ain't basic. If you feel that it's not basic and if you gonna get through it, sometimes it may take an argument. Let it all out. See, in team sports, and I've been on good and bad teams, like, when it's bad and this is the same as a relationship, you have a team meeting. All right, everybody, air it out. What you ain't feeling about him, him, him. Why we ain't winning. Why we ain't doing this. And you gotta be able to have those arguments and those conversations to get it all out. You gonna feel better. It can't be. I don't wanna say it.
Cesar Faraday
And then I emotionally get, no, I know that's wrong. Yeah, I know that's wrong in so many ways. I know that's wrong.
Co-host (male)
I can heal and move forward. Forward is you. You might have to argue and you might sometimes have to yell and scream or.
Cesar Faraday
Or.
Co-host (male)
Or nagging.
Cesar Faraday
I mean, you would hope, though, that,
Co-host (male)
like, that's what come with it, but
Cesar Faraday
you would hope that. The thing is, is, like, I feel like people, like, are not receptive sometimes. Like, it doesn't have to be an argument. Like, some conversations, it's not even an argument. It's just like, hey, this is how I kind of been feeling about this thing or that thing. And it's been kind of making me feel this way. And instead, I've noticed this happen in my past relationships. I'll be completely honest. And I think. I think that this is one of, like, my red flags that I've done is like, I'll just hold a bunch of. That's, like, little. But it's, like, making me feel away or I feel weird, and then I'm just, like, carrying it. Carrying a bunch of. I'll let it slide. I'll let it slide. I let it slide. And then one day I'm like, letting so much decide that I literally emotionally disconnect. And then they're like, what's wrong? Like, you don't seem.
Co-host (male)
That's so bad.
Cesar Faraday
It is. It's something that I do. Yeah.
Co-host (male)
You know why it's bad on so many levels? Because when you don't let it out to him, you letting it out to your homegirl. And now you allow other people in your relationship to say, oh, well, you don't need to be doing this. And you don't. And that's when the other shit creep in. When you don't talk about it to your partner, you for sure talking about it to your friend for sure. Every girl.
Cesar Faraday
Not. No, not necessarily.
Co-host (male)
It's like a hundred. Cause what are y' all talking about?
Cesar Faraday
Oh, my God.
Co-host (male)
Y' all always talk about each other's relationships.
Cesar Faraday
That's not true. That's what men think. But there's a lot of stuff we talk about.
Co-host (male)
You could do a poll, even for me, how many women talk about their relationships? I understand 99.9 of them.
Cesar Faraday
But let me say this. Like, some people like not every woman has a homegirl that's like him. Don't do this, don't do that.
Co-host (male)
Me personally, it ain't the f use opening up to them to allow the negativity to creep in from the friend. What I'm saying, you ain't got to deal with that.
Cesar Faraday
But what I'm saying is not everyone. Not everyone has the homegirl that's negative. Like, people have safe spaces. Like, I have a sister who's been married, and if I have to talk about something, I'll talk to her because she'll. My sister. And some of my friends will straight up be like, you're wrong. Or, why aren't you talking to him and giving him the opportunity to change it? Like, you're tripping. Like, I have. I have very. I've been lucky. And I know not all women are lucky to have that. There's a lot of what you're saying is really 100 true women will open up to their friend, and the friend will be like, girl, f him. You don't need to be dealing with that anyways. And then now that's in their head, and then they're carrying all the stuff, and then they explode, you know? So I think you're right. And I do think the reason I. I said it is because I do think that it's not a good look to do that. I agree with you. I think I'm. I'm admitting that that has been my fault in my past relationships. I'm trying to work on that now. But I for sure have been someone to avoid the harder conversations or the tough conversations because I didn't want to disrupt something or I felt like, you know, I don't want to this person be like, she always is saying something, or. So I'm just like, let me just shut up. Let it slide, let it slide, let it slide. But then that makes you get pushed away further from the person. You're just kind of like. Like, I don't feel safe here. I don't feel like I can talk about stuff. So I'm just kind of, like, closed off. And then you have things that are not met, like, unmet things, because the person doesn't really know. So I feel like it's fair to give them the opportunity and a chance to hear you out at least. And after that, you go from there, you know? But, like, I do think it's not right. I'm not saying that it's right to move like that.
Co-host (male)
Yeah.
Cesar Faraday
So YK Osiris, you know who that is?
Co-host (male)
Yeah, I do.
Cesar Faraday
He recently said it's like a viral thing. He said, I'm not gonna lie. I don't feel like a woman is obligated to cook or clean without a ring. Go get a cleaner or a maid.
Co-host (male)
So a woman is not obligated to
Cesar Faraday
cook or clean without a ring.
Co-host (male)
Without a ring, yeah. So that's what he value. I mean, if that's his thing and then, you know, he get into a relationship and he don't like that no more, then it's like, damn. You know, if he want. You know, certain guys is like, hey, I'll get a maid for you. I'll get a cook for you. That's his thing. You know, he got the means to do it. Hey, that's on you. You know what I'm saying? Ain't nothing wrong with that. Everybody got their little standards and what they.
Cesar Faraday
My thing, though, is a lot of, like, if a man is financially contributing in helping you and taking care of you, then I think that it's like, how do we expect men to do things that a husband would do? But you're not doing anything that a wife would do unless you have a ring. My opinion is. Is, like, if he's doing things, you should be doing things. Y' all should be reciprocating the means
Co-host (male)
to do those things. Then who cares? Like, you don't. That ain't what he got. He value other things. He value sex probably more. Or these other things more or whatever. Like. But that's minor. That's minor, actually. So that ain't no big deal if he don't require a woman to cook or clean without the ring. But what if he give her the ring and she can't cook or clean and that's what he want, then what? I mean, that's the only thing I'll say about that. Like, what if you want your wifey to cook and clean when she get the ring? If she ain't done it before the ring, why you expect her to do it with the ring?
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, I get that. That's what I'm saying, though.
Co-host (male)
So, like, say you don't require a woman to cook or clean, period. Don't say, don't you have to throw the ring in there?
Cesar Faraday
Well, he's basically saying you shouldn't do wifely things when you ain't a wife.
Co-host (male)
You gotta do wifely things to get wifed, period. You can't do girlfriend things and expect to get wifed. Wifey things have to be done before you get wife. How do I know You're a wifey.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, I agree with that.
Co-host (male)
Come on now.
Cesar Faraday
So India Love recently went online and people are like getting on her about it because she said that she never wants a man. She never wants to hear a man ask about how much something cost or about discounts. She said it's the biggest turnoff you can ever do is to like say, oh, is this a discount? Or how much is this? She said that's just like disgusting. It's a turn off. Like that makes a man completely undesirable to her.
Co-host (male)
Yeah. Because she don't value the money like a man. If a man is doing that, it's motherfucking billionaires that's out there doing that.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, it is. I know that for a fact.
Co-host (male)
So what if he a billionaire? Then you know, but that's how you keep your billions. That's how you keep your millions if you doing stuff like that. So you gotta value money and you gotta value the long term of the money. Cause like this, I'm gonna do this my rest of my life. What if I can't maintain this? What if I got a good deal? The reason people was billionaires is because they sought deals. You understand that?
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, exactly.
Co-host (male)
They got the best deal. That's the reason they got the money. So she gotta understand that part of it. Like, why would I get this $6 million house and live in it and don't use all this space I got when I can get this other house where I'm gonna use the space and this is all I need.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, for sure.
Co-host (male)
And I have money to do other things. So, you know, women, they get caught up in the look of how everything looks.
Cesar Faraday
That is the most ridiculous thing I've heard though.
Co-host (male)
Cannot.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, go ahead, finish. Sorry, I thought you were done.
Co-host (male)
No, women get caught up in the way things look on the outside. Like, oh, why is my man. We had to. We had the store shopping and he asked how much this cost. Like, ugh, that's a turn off. No, what if I can get something better for cheaper and I could do something else with this money, you know what I'm saying? But you know, women like India, you know, she wants the guy, the breadwinner, the guy with a lot of money to just be in there. Like, price don't matter for her. I'm gonna spend it. Then what happen when he go broke? Then she on to the next period. So, I mean, it is what it is. That's what she want. I mean, that's cool, you know, but like when you. It's cool when you young, you know what I'm saying? I didn't understand it either until when I started getting older. I'm like, man, this gotta last the rest of my life. Why do I gotta floss and have the best of the best every time? Like, damn, it don't even make sense. A lot of times I'm getting stuff and then it go in the trash or I don't use it no more. But it was cool at the time, you know, Like I could be in a bigger house than I'm in now, but like, why I don't need all that space, you know what I'm saying? And it took a while for me to understand that. Like, I was living like that for a long time. And then it was just like, I'm in a house and I got a five bedroom. I don't even use these rooms. I don't even go in this room. I don't even use this. And I'm like, damn, that's a waste. So, yeah, you know, I'm just like, sure, I could. You. I could be using this money to do other stuff with it, you know, I could use this extra invest in this now. So, I mean, you know, it is what it is. Everybody is titled to what they want and what they believe in. So it's whatever.
Cesar Faraday
Cool. Okay. So Claudia Jordan. Claudia Jordan was on Nick Cannon's podcast with her best friend and they spoke about me.
Co-host (male)
Claudia, what's up?
Cesar Faraday
They spoke about passing around their exes or guys that they've dated. So like, basically the best friend was telling a story about how she was looking at this guy. So she googled him and saw that he was on the red carpet with Claudia Jordan. And so she sent it to Claudia and was like, so you used to talk to him? And she's like, yeah, but you can have them. And they just like. She was like, we've done that a lot of times with men. So Nick Cannon said that this character standards are in hell. He was like, I don't like that. Because that just means where's the character? Where's the this? I mean, is Nick Cannon wanna talk? Cause he be doing all type of stuff. I don't know. But me personally, I get it to a certain degree to where it's like, if I don't care about a man at all, my homegirl really was a. If someone asked me, like, I'll. I'll look at you. I'll never do that. I'll never want nobody else's. Like, someone who my homegirl Messed with. Can I finish? I never wanted someone else that I mess with, man. But I think that if my home girl, like, really wanted a man that I used to deal with, then you can have them.
Co-host (male)
What does deal with mean?
Cesar Faraday
Messed around. Dated.
Co-host (male)
They do that all the time.
Cesar Faraday
Like, not just sex, but, like, dating boundaries.
Co-host (male)
Like, you could date the man you used to date if it was your madman. I get it. But, like, she's probably talking about, oh, I messed around with them. Like, and then they were on the
Cesar Faraday
red carpet together, they messing around.
Co-host (male)
Okay, like, guys do it all the time. Women do it all the time, as we hear here. But, like, when it gets to a certain point, like, oh, we went out on a few dates and everything and messed around. There's no substance in that. But, like, damn, what if she ran into him and they hit it off and it felt good and, you know, maybe that's all she wanted. Maybe most of the time that's just a sexual thing, you know? And then maybe it can turn into relationship. But, like, women be like, oh, he was a good time, girl. Go ahead. Men will do the same thing. I mean, I've never personally done that. Like, hey, she was a good time. Go ahead, dog. Like, but women do it and men do it. I know men that do it. Like, here. Yeah, she was a good time. Ain't no feelings. It was just a good time. And, you know, I see it. I see it all happen all the time. I personally, like, don't ask me. You don't have to ask me. Like, why are you asking me if you know it was just some work? Because that was just pretty much work at that point. Oh, it was some. Just work. But if it was just like, my girl or somebody, that's when I feel like that's like, nah, I ain't feeling that. Like, that was my girl and everything. Now the homie, you want to be with my girl, but it's on her, too. Why are you participating in it, too? So I'm like, you tell me about your character now. If you knew I know this dude, and I kicked him when you was my girl. You telling me a lot about you. And now I'm off. Not only him, I'm off of you too.
Cesar Faraday
Why were you ever on them if that was your ex? What do you mean you're off of them?
Co-host (male)
No, I'm off. Like, if my boy or somebody I kick it with or hang with want to hang out with my ex, like, and then say, like, the feeling is mutual and say, we still had a cool Friendship or whatever. I'm off both y' all as a friend.
Cesar Faraday
Why are you friends with your ex?
Co-host (male)
What if I'm single still?
Cesar Faraday
Why is anyone friends with their ex?
Co-host (male)
What if I'm single, okay?
Cesar Faraday
And then you get in a relationship and then you cut that person out.
Co-host (male)
If I'm single and I'm still friends with my ex, what's wrong with that? Is there, like, if you're single, you not friends with your ex?
Cesar Faraday
No, I'm not friends with my ex.
Co-host (male)
Like, what does friendship mean? Like, what Carl show? We talk here and there, but we ain't nothing going on. But like, now it go from that. We cordial, we talk, text, hey, happy birthday, all this. But now it go from that to like, nothing. I don't want to hear nothing. I don't want to hear happy birthdays, I'm single. Listen to what I'm saying. I'm single. I could say to my ex, happy birthday. I could say whatever if I'm not in a relationship, but if you decide that you want to get with my boy and you feel cool enough to get with her, and we was, happy birthday, you not getting nothing from me. Now it's no more friendship. It's no more nothing from neither one of y'.
Cesar Faraday
All. Yeah, I feel like for me, I don't. But that's different. Everyone's different. Some people stay friends with their ex. I don't really stay friends with an ex, to be honest, because, like, you know, there was feelings there and there was stuff involved. So it's just for me, it's like, you know, I'd rather. But I know whatever some people do stay friends with their exes, that's on them.
Co-host (male)

So Halle Berry recently said that she feels like women should stop faking orgasms because it's putting men's needs before your own. Basically, it's putting men a man's needs before your own by faking the orgasm.
Co-host (male)
Well, I remember when you said one time that most women don't have orgasms.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, a lot don't and a lot will. Some will fake it because they feel bad and they want to just make a man feel like he's doing that, you know? So a lot of women do fake orgasms where they think. A lot of men think they are giving women orgasms and they're not. So she's basically saying, like, we should. And there's a lot of women who do orgasm, but they are just with someone who's either, like, learned their body or they taught them or whatever the case is. So there she's basically saying, like, you should stop faking the orgasm because you shouldn't be putting his needs before yours. That means that he thinks he made you calm. He didn't. And now you're just trying to, like, do it to get him going and making him feel that, like, better about himself.
Co-host (male)
I don't think nothing wrong with that. Keep him going. Uplift your man. What's the point? That's uplift your man.
Cesar Faraday
Uplift your woman by making her come.
Co-host (male)
Well, tell him how to do it. If he ain't doing it, show him how to do it. Yeah, but like, like, if you gonna keep faking it and be disappointed, tell him how to do it. Like, do he know or can he. Is he capable? It's a conversation.
Cesar Faraday
Then, yeah, I feel like a lot of women fake it. I don't fake that at all because I just don't. But I just think that women do. And I get it. You just want to feel like, okay, whatever, like, you satisfied. It is harder for a lot of women to reach that. You know what I mean? And so I feel like it is on the woman to teach the man. It's also, I feel like on the man to, like, be on it. On, like, what should I do, babe? What do you want? Like, da da, da, da, da. So I think it's both ways, because I even think with women, I think men should, like. I feel like women do stuff with men, and they were like, it's cool, but they like it a certain way or something different, too. So I think both parties have to be more vocal. About what?
Co-host (male)
Well, why the man gotta be vocal? He's not the one faking it. She is.
Cesar Faraday
No, I'm saying for his pleasure, too. Like, what he likes.
Co-host (male)
Yeah, Most men are. 99% of the men. They gone.
Cesar Faraday
No, they are, but I'm saying they
Co-host (male)
gonna get to where they need to go.
Cesar Faraday
No, I know they're gonna get there,
Co-host (male)
but I'm saying a lot of times it ain't even on the woman. It's on him.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, I'm not even saying that. I'm just saying, like, I feel like both parties, like, can instruct or tell the person, like, what they like more, basically, what you like more.
Co-host (male)
Yeah, of course.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah. But I feel like it could be awkward, I guess, for a woman, because it's like, how do you even tell a man? Like, you know, I think a lot of women struggle with that, and we've talked about that when Sham Boudran was on our show about just how to approach that scenario for a lot of women or whatever the case may be on how to be satisfied or whatever. Because I think that there's, like, a stigma, like, you know, as a. As a woman, you have to make sure a man is not, like, just walking around here, not, like, satisfied or not, like, having sex or da, da, da, da, da. But I don't think that men feel that way about women. They're just like, oh, they're good. You know? Like, I feel like men don't think about it like that. Like, oh, she's out here just, like, not getting, you know, cracking, like, getting her shit off. So. Damn. Like, men don't think about that about women.
Co-host (male)
I mean, damn. When the woman take a man down, you all take all our energy. Like, boom. Like, what you expect from, like, you don't get no gratification of taking your man down. Like, y' all took him Down.
Cesar Faraday
But so you know what? You know what men don't realize? You know how, like, if you had sex but you didn't come, you still need to, like, get your shit out.
Co-host (male)
Okay.
Cesar Faraday
That's the same as a woman. You know that.
Co-host (male)
I don't.
Cesar Faraday
Well, I'm telling you, like, men don't realize that.
Co-host (male)
It's just never had that issue.
Cesar Faraday
Men don't realize that that's the same as a woman. Like that if a woman has sex and she doesn't, she's still gonna be, like, turned on until she can get that out. You know what I mean? So, like, men don't realize, like, yes, you're satisfied by taking a man down, of course. But that doesn't mean you're not like, yeah, for sure.
Co-host (male)
But then women. Women go out. That's why these sex shops is made for women more so than men. So y' all go out and get y' all little devices and stuff, and y' all be like, all right, I'll take care of myself then. That's what women do. Women do that.
Cesar Faraday
Women do do that. Yeah, they do. But men are. Y'. All. Men are okay with that. They're just like, whatever. You could just go do your own thing. I don't care to, like, figure it out.
Co-host (male)
Women do that way more than men.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, of course. Because women are not coming. Men, like you said, are going to come 99 of the time. A woman is not. So it's different.
Co-host (male)
Well, it's easier for a man to get there than a woman.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, for sure. 100%.
Co-host (male)
It's harder for a woman. I mean, when you've been took down so many times, it's harder for the woman.
Cesar Faraday
What do you mean?
Co-host (male)
I say what? I'll say what I mean. When the woman didn't have so much intercourse with so many different men, it's harder for you.
Cesar Faraday
That's not true. You know that it's actually more easy for a woman to come the more sexual experience that she had because she's more in tune with her body. Do you think that we're coming when we first have sex? When we first have sex, it hurts and it's uncomfortable. You don't start enjoying sex until you're like, more. You've had more sex. Just so you know. So it's not about. A woman's been taken down by so many men now she can't come. Matter of fact, women who are more sexually active come a lot quicker and know how to make themselves come a lot faster than women who are less Sexually active. Okay, so that's a complete wrong statement all the way.
Co-host (male)
Thanks for schooling me.
Cesar Faraday
No, because it is. You said that when Shan Boudreau was on the show, too, and she told you the same thing. It's wrong. Like, you think. Cause she's broken now because she got too lit up.
Co-host (male)
She got beat up so many times.
Cesar Faraday
That's not the truth. That's so, like, a juvenile thought. That's so untrue.
Co-host (male)
I know.
Cesar Faraday
Okay. If prescribed, new sexual health patients get 15 off their first order of sparks on a reoccurring plan. Connect with the provider at Ro Co Tad to find out if prescription roast sparks are right for you. We're going to go into a fan question. Spinning the block on a relationship. Question for the pod. Can Azar and Azar elaborate? And Paul give insight on spinning the block on a relationship. If you left a relationship, what are your thoughts on possibly rekindling things with an ex? Why or why not?
Co-host (male)
I've never done that personally. I've never broken up with a girl and got back with a girl. I'm just like, you know, I feel like the issues you had to make y' all break up is gonna be the same issues you get back when you get back into it, thinking something's gonna be different. I've never gotten back with an ex. I've never even entertained getting back with an ex. Like, hey, should we be together? Or any of that. I just feel like once it's over, it's over.
Cesar Faraday
But did you ever spin the block? Like, you kind of. Y' all slept together again. Y' all booed up again,
Co-host (male)
Slept together again.
Cesar Faraday
You know how some people spin the block and just kind of, like, catch a vibe one night, two nights here and there?
Co-host (male)
No, no and no. No, no and no.
Cesar Faraday
I think for me, my answer to the question is I never did that either. But I will say that people can. There's a lot of things that can happen that I'm starting to realize as I mature. Because I used to be really hell bent on, like, never spin the block or whatever, but now, like, I've seen some people do this, and I've seen this happen, and maybe, like, you guys can take time apart and grow and change and, like, mature and realize, like, there were some things that we did wrong that could make us, like, get back together or whatever. Like, maybe we were at the time. I didn't really see where you were coming from, but I. I now do. Like, if it wasn't a whole bunch of cheating and lying and it was just, we broke up because the timing or because there were certain things that maybe were disrupting or we weren't in alignment. I feel like time might heal that. And the work separate. Like, being separated and doing the work separately and then being like, damn, we reconnected. We came back together also. I've seen people, like, maybe get in another relationship, and then that made them appreciate the fact that, like, wow, I thought I wanted this, but now I'm realizing, like, yo, I really wanted what this was offering. You know, I've seen, like, a few situations in which that happened that kind of, like, changed my perspective on that. Like, maybe you can. Maybe you can. You know. Yeah. Maybe people can grow apart and then come back together and be like, okay, like, we can make this work or whatever in, like, you know, a few months or, you know, like a year, whatever the case may be. And now we're in a much better space. And, you know, I have a friend like that, and she's now married to that man. They have kids and they've been married for a minute. So you never know, you know? Like, that's kind of how I look at it now.
Co-host (male)
It can't end in disrespect. Once it ends in disrespect. Most of them. Most relationships, a lot of end in disrespect. But if you're in a good place at the time and you ain't feeling it right now and now you get back, I get it. But when it ends in disrespect, there's no going back from that.
Cesar Faraday
Yeah, I get that. I get that. Thank you guys so much for joining another episode of the Truth Ever Dark. You guys were really upset about our last episode last week. I get it. I know you guys are so mad, but what? Because I was saying things about black men, I'm getting. It's funny because my homegirl commented on one of the posts that I don't even talk to, and she hit me up. She's like, oh, my God, is there the way that people are attacking me because I commented on your post. I said, welcome to my life. You guys were super upset about it, but it is what it is. I love y' all still. I. I rock with y'. All. But I said what I said at the end of the day, so, you know, it is what it is. But I still love you guys so much.

Co-host (male)

Cesar Faraday
Tony Baker even commented on it and was just like. Because he's so mature, but he was just like, I cheated.

Episode Title: Dak’s Wedding Called Off, Sharing Your Ex With Your Best Friend, & The Need For Women
Date: March 23, 2026
Host: Shannon Sharpe (Shay Shay Media & Playmaker)
Core Participants for “Truth After Dark” Segment: Cesar Faraday & Co-host (male)
This episode of Club Shay Shay dives deep into the intersections of celebrity relationship drama, emotional security, and the complexities of modern romance. Featuring candid and humorous exchanges between hosts Cesar Faraday and their co-host, the discussion orbits around current events (most notably, Dak Prescott’s wedding collapse), emotional and financial needs in relationships, the etiquette of “sharing” exes among friends, and the desire—or need—for companionship, especially from a male perspective. Throughout, the hosts navigate topics ranging from cheating, social media’s impact on privacy, communication pitfalls, and even sexual satisfaction in relationships, while frequently referencing real-life celebrity situations.

| Timestamp | Speaker | Quote | |:-------------:|:----------------|:---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | 06:01 | Co-host | “Why y’all wait as friends of hers to the bachelorette party to bring this up?…That’s just hate.” | | 10:36 | Cesar Faraday | “Security is more than money… If a man can’t protect you emotionally, that doesn’t feel safe.” | | 18:12 | Cesar Faraday | “Some women are straight up. I don’t deal with that. I don’t deal with no level of cheating. Straight up.” | | 23:40 | Cesar Faraday | “The first time a man cheats… it hurts so bad… By the time you’re on their third, fourth, you’re ready to leave because you’re numb.” | | 33:15 | Co-host | “Once public embarrassment is involved, it’s hard to go back… A woman hates public embarrassment.” | | 37:03 | Boosie (quoted) | "I need a woman. And not just sexually. Sometimes I just want my woman around and to lay up with." | | 42:02 | Cesar Faraday | “There’s a study that reveals women are exhausted from explaining basic emotional needs to men like listening and empathy.” | | 44:18 | Cesar Faraday | “I’ll just hold a bunch of [stuff] that’s little but making me feel away…Then I emotionally disconnect.” | | 49:46 | Co-host | “You gotta do wifely things to get wifed, period. You can’t do girlfriend things and expect to get wifed.” | | 51:05 | Co-host | “The reason people are billionaires is because they sought deals. You understand that?” | | 56:28 | Co-host | “If my boy… want to hang out with my ex… and the feeling is mutual… I’m off both y’all as a friend.” | | 60:10 | Cesar Faraday | “A lot [of women] will fake it because they feel bad and want to just make a man feel like he’s doing that, you know?” | | 69:29 | Co-host | “Once it ends in disrespect, there’s no going back from that.” |
The episode balances humor, candidness, and occasional bluntness. It unpacks harsh truths about relationship dynamics, holding men and women accountable for both emotional and tangible forms of neglect or betrayal. There’s emphasis on defining and defending personal boundaries—whether about cheating, emotional labor, sexual satisfaction, or even money. Social media, meanwhile, looms large as both a toxic megaphone and a pressure-cooker for relationships, especially for public figures. Throughout, the hosts champion honest conversation, self-respect, and the courage to walk away from disrespect—no matter the stage of a relationship.
Final Host Reflection:
Cesar closes by reaffirming support for love in all its forms and stands by her opinions—even if they ruffle feathers, especially regarding accountability in relationships (71:02–71:33).
For listeners, this episode offers a raw look into the messiness of romance—between trust, money, friendship, and the private vs. public fallout of love gone sideways.
