From Lauren Smith Fields to Mason Greenwood's assuault of Harriet Robson to mental health issues that lead to Chelsie Kryst's death, it seems that we talk about violence against women time and time again and to be honest it's exhausting. That said, we will keep talking about it until significant change occurs. it's all here and we need to have a conversation. It's not all darkness though as we talk Rihanna and ASAP Rocky expecting their first child. Have a listen and let's talk.

This week, twitter was set ablaze by two of the most misogynistic podcasters in the game today. They tell us that men and women are in a battle for supremacy and they don't date black women either. We decide to dive into this so called "battle" and whether the black women issue is self-hate or just a case of "preferences."

Welcome to 2022 or should we call it 2020 Part 3 since we're back to peak Covid? We wanted to usher in the new year by talking about our respective Christmas trips to Nigeria and Houston and a little bit about what the year has in store. We pay tribute to two of the greatest to ever do it, Betty White and the incomparable Sidney Poitier. Cheers to a big year for all of us!

Bullying is prevalent in schools around the world. What can we as parents/parents to be do about it? How much impact can we have to ensure our kids don't become bullies or that they speak up when bullied? We also touch on Drake and Kanye making up and Jussie Smollett's verdict. Of course we pay tribute to the 60 angels we lost in the Sosoliso plane crash 16 years ago.

With great power comes great responsibility right? Except if you're a tech bro with power to hire young girls who are desperate to find a job. We discuss the gross abuse of privilege that's been uncovered in the Nigerian tech sector. RIP Young Dolph who was shot to death in buying cookies for his mother and yes we do a deepdive into the Spiderman No Way Home trailer and Bernie's deep distaste for Tom Holland's version of our favorite web crawler.
