Summary
This week on The Pre-Game, I’m pouring it all out — no chaser. First, we’re diving into the messy truth about gender roles in dating, relationships, and society. Are they outdated, or do some still serve a purpose? Then we get serious, breaking down the early warning signs of an abusive relationship — because sometimes the red flags aren’t as obvious as we think.
But it’s not all heavy. We open the hotline to hear YOUR biggest icks — and wow, you delivered. From friendships that don’t reciprocate your energy, to men with bad breath, nothing was off-limits. Whether you’re here for the laughs, the real talk, or both, this episode will have you nodding, side-eyeing, and maybe rethinking who gets your time and energy.
The Pre-Game is hosted by Kayla Nicole. Need more? Keep up with the show on Instagram and YouTube.
