Dirty Bathwater "dating after 50" with Giddy and Lux

Picnics, Ghosts, and Holiday Sparks

Gideon Jaden, Jean-Lux Basquiat Season 5 Episode 6

Hi Giddy here, tell us your dating experiences! Would you like to join us on a future show?

This week, Giddy and Lux unwrap the messy magic of dating after 50 during the holiday season. Giddy, with her razor-sharp wit and academic edge, pairs perfectly with Lux’s goofy one-liners and heartfelt sincerity as they dive into the highs and lows of festive romance.

From meeting someone at a community volunteer event to the sting of being ghosted mid-dinner (yes, Ray,s date was supposed to show up…), the duo keeps it real with stories that are equal parts awkward and hilarious. But it’s not all cringe—Giddy and Lux always circle back to empowering advice: how to adapt, laugh, and keep moving forward no matter what dating curveballs come your way.

They’ll also share creative seasonal date ideas, like a cozy post-Thanksgiving picnic or twinkling holiday sightseeing, proving that romance after 50 can be just as adventurous, spontaneous, and joyful as ever.
