Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2469840/fan_mail/new] Description: In the Season 1 finale of Hey Girl, U Up?, Anna sits down with two unforgettable singles proving that dating, sex, flirting, ghosting, tequila, games, and bad decisions absolutely do NOT expire after 60. Meet Trixie — 83 years old, dating younger men, driving muscle cars, collecting unsolicited dick pics, and still closing bars at 2AM. Alongside Joe from Jersey, a lifelong bachelor who treats dating like a competitive sport, this episode dives into modern dating, loneliness, hookups, dating apps, red flags, aging, romance scams, and why “the game” never really ends. It’s STILL GAME — a hilarious, chaotic, surprisingly heartfelt conversation about staying curious, staying single, and staying alive. Topics this episode include: * Dating, sex, and swiping after 60, 70, and 80 * DateACougar and dating younger men * One-night stand rules and why nobody wants sleepovers anymore * Tequila nights, bars, flirting, and Casa Vega happy hours * Ghosting, lying about age, and fake dating profiles * Tinder “Free Tonight,” nanoships, and textationships * Romance scammers and people asking for money online * Red flags, toxic traits, and “the game” * Why some people stay single by choice * The most romantic gestures they’ve ever experienced * Dating advice from two people who have truly seen it all From muscle cars and margaritas to dick pics and emotional games, this episode explores what happens when people keep searching for connection long after society expects them to stop. And maybe the biggest takeaway of all: dating never really ends.

106 | I WON'T SETTLE! - PICKY, PERFECT OR PEACE? | GUEST: GRACE LEWIS

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2469840/fan_mail/new] What’s the difference between being picky, having standards, and finally protecting your peace? In this week’s episode, Anna sits down with powerhouse guest Grace Lewis—author, reality dating alum, life coach and unapologetic boss—to talk about the real cost of dating down, how childhood shapes our romantic choices, and why neither of them is willing to settle (ever again). This is a no-filter conversation between two smart, successful women who’ve tried it all—from dating apps and matchmakers to love stories that felt right until they very much weren’t. They unpack red flags, ghosting, and the emotional acrobatics women perform when we fall for potential instead of reality. From LA’s fake job titles to New York’s direct charm, from air mattresses to FaceTime background sleuthing—this episode is part hilarious, part heartfelt, and totally relatable. Whether you’ve ever paid the emotional (or literal) bill for someone else’s lack of ambition—or just needed a reminder that not settling is a power move—this one’s for you. 🔗 Follow the Madness: 📺 Youtube Video Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@HeyGirlUup 📱 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@heygirluup 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heygirluup [https://www.instagram.com/heygirluup] 🌐 Website: https://www.heygirluup.com/ [https://www.heygirluup.com/] 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61573461766502 [https://www.facebook.com/heygirluup]

105| PETER PAN - THE LOST (SINGLE) BOYS!| GUESTS: NEIL BENTLEY FIERRO & DREW LEWANDOWSKI

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2469840/fan_mail/new] Why are so many men over 40 still single, never married, and child-free? Are they emotionally unavailable? Lovable lone wolves? Or just playing the long game? In this episode of Hey Girl, U Up?, Anna sits down with two real-life “Lost Boys” — Neil Bentley Fierro and Drew Lewandowski — for a wide-ranging, hilarious, and at times brutally honest conversation about modern dating, commitment fears, and what it means to grow up (or not) in the era of endless swiping. Drew is a self-proclaimed hopeless romantic with a long trail of almosts, while Neil prefers meeting women “in the wild” and dreams of a traditional cheerleader-style partner — minus the emotional labor. Together, they dive into what men really want, what turns them off, and why dating after 40 is such a minefield for both sides. From explosive first-date disasters and ghosting regrets to the pros and cons of single moms, religious dealbreakers, and sex on the first night, this episode is packed with sharp takes, big laughs, and surprising vulnerability. We also play "Regret Roulette," roast the wildest dating bios in our weekly "Biohazard" segment, and rank red flags with “Flagged or Bagged.” If you've ever wondered why some men never seem to settle down — or if you're dating one right now — this is the episode that pulls back the curtain. No shame, no sugarcoating. Featuring confessions, contradictions, and just enough espresso martinis to keep it spicy, Peter Pan – The Lost (Single) Boys is a must-listen for anyone navigating the strange, funny, and often frustrating world of dating over 40.
