  • We Let Comedians Pick Our Dates: Part 1
    2026/11/11
    What happens when you let a panel of comedians choose your next date? Apparently, we were determined to find out. This week, Divorced & Dating goes LIVE! Kat and Michelle are two of three bachelorettes taking the stage at The Big D, a live dating and comedy show hosted by Julie Golden. The premise? Three single women, three single men, and a panel of professional comedians asking the questions nobody should probably ask in public. Then the comedians play matchmaker, sending the newly formed couples on live speed dates. In Part 1, meet the singles, hear their dating confessions, and watch Kat and Michelle try to survive the comedians’ dating questions. Then come back next Tuesday for Part 2, when we reveal the matches, watch the dates unfold, and find out which couple the audience chooses as the winner. And yes, Kat manages to embarrass herself. Obviously. The Big D - Dating Show: https://www.thebigddatingshow.com/ Julie Golden - Host of The Big D: https://www.instagram.com/juliegoldengirl Divorced & Dating is about finding the humor, adventure, and unexpected joy in starting over. Because life after divorce can be sexy, ridiculous, and a whole lot of fun. New episodes every Tuesday. Hosted by Katherine Brown and Michelle Yoswa.

  • Dating Red Flags: When the Little Things Add Up
    2026/11/04
    Sometimes the biggest dating red flags aren’t big at all. They’re the little comments that make you pause, the subtle competition, or that uncomfortable feeling that you’re starting to make yourself smaller just to keep someone interested. This week on Divorced & Dating, Kat and Michelle share real stories from their dating lives about the moments when promising new relationships started to feel a little off. From a man who criticized Michelle’s time volunteering with her kids to one who called Kat vain for wanting to get in shape, we’re talking about the little comments that can reveal bigger compatibility problems. We also get into dating someone who sees you as competition instead of a teammate, why women are conditioned to want to be chosen, the difference between masculine and feminine dating dynamics, and how to recognize a partner who genuinely brings out the best in you. And because dating after divorce shouldn’t be all red flags and relationship analysis, we’re bringing back a little teenage romance. Think long makeout sessions, holding hands, thoughtful gestures, and having fun without worrying about where every date is going. Because at this stage of life, shouldn’t dating be more fun, not less? In this episode: How small comments can reveal bigger relationship problems Recognizing when you’re shrinking yourself to keep someone happy Why a partner should be your teammate, not your competition Masculine and feminine energy: two different perspectives The importance of responding to bids for connection Why dating after divorce should feel a little more like being 16 again Other things we mention in this episode: The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists ― A Provocative Memoir on Male Dating Subculture and Seduction by Neil Strauss: https://link.amazon/B029s1z2B The Relationship Cure: A 5 Step Guide to Strengthening Your Marriage, Family, and Friendships by John M Gottman, PhD: https://link.amazon/B0451N1hp Divorced & Dating, hosted by Katherine Brown and Michelle Yoswa.

  • Same Girls, Different Boundaries
    2026/09/29
    In this episode: Overfunctioning No More: We were both in charge of handling everything in our marriages to giant babies and are no longer willing to be the “cruise director” in the relationship. We can get Spicy (and no shade to Sluttiness). 🌶️ 🥵 Reciprocity of effort, with the first date setting the tone. Michelle definitely has stronger dating boundaries than Kat does. We both love men - and that’s the problem. Men aren’t competing with other men, they are actually competing with the peaceful single lives we have built for ourselves. Love doesn’t need butterflies - we are now in a No Drama Zone. Things we are no longer here for: competing with our kids for attention, breadcrumbing, mixed signals, flakiness. No chasing - if he ghosts, we don’t need to overthink it. We block & keep it moving. Dating As A Mom: New Rules - No Second Chances for First Dates.
