Happy Hour with Kim & Ash

On Happy Hour with Kim and Ash, the hosts welcome Katy Clark, a luxury matchmaker at Cinq (cinq.com) who shares how she entered matchmaking after becoming a single mom and dating through multiple databases. Katy explains that great matchmaking relies on intuition, reading people, recruiting, and delivering tough feedback, and she discusses common client issues, including deal breakers and spotting “gold diggers.” She outlines what high-quality men look for—fit, fun, feminine, and kind—plus how labels can become premature red flags and why asking meaningful questions early matters. The conversation covers dating apps with her 80/20 rule, coaching clients to improve photos and presentation, and first-date guidance: men should lead with a plan, dress well, and pay; women should be soft, clear about interest, and use a three-date rule. Katy also addresses “boss babe” dating dynamics, age preferences, SoCal dating culture, and the value of a personal “glow up,” then closes with encouragement to stay steadfast, ask friends for introductions, and be open to flexibility and moving.

On Happy Hour with Kim and Ash, sports medicine physician Dr. Rebecca Rodriguez shares how her experience as medical director at the Rio 2016 Team USA high performance center and her current work with USA women’s rugby and water polo shaped her focus on recovery, hormones, and longevity. She explains how female athletes’ training and rehab can change across the menstrual cycle and discusses how the Women’s Health Initiative affected hormone education in medical schools, why HRT can be life-changing, and the importance of evidence-based, comprehensive lab testing and physician-led, customized plans. Dr. Rodriguez defines peptides as protein messengers, notes safety concerns (including with cancer history), and describes GLP-1 options (semaglutide and tirzepatide), benefits beyond weight loss, side-effect management, and why monitoring protein, exercise, and bone density matters. She also addresses teen peptide use, compares HGH vs CJC, and shares her practice details in Encinitas and via telehealth.

Ash and Kim introduce their new podcast, Happy Hour with Kim and Ash, sharing how their friendship grew from professional connections to a close bond through their boys’ football weekends and their one-hour “power hour” meetups. Kim talks about owning the family-run Lobster West restaurants with locations in Encinitas, La Jolla, and Coronado, and the hosts explain that “Happy Hour” isn’t just about drinking, but about making time for meaningful connection. They preview the show’s anything-goes format where no topic is off limits, teasing conversations with guests like a luxury dating expert and matchmaker, the founder of Bebemos Tequila, professional athletes, and an expert on peptides, and invite viewers to join them for a fun season.
