  • #14 Best Month of the Year!

    get ready for an episode riddled with me saying "month" instead of "season", or "season" instead of "year" etc, lol. i also talk a bit a bit about covid fatigue, and give a shout out to 2-DA-Forum, check them out!

    happy best month of the year, happy "best season of the month", and happy easter!

      • The Bachelorette s16 e10 & e11

        omg - we are nearing the end, and it's so sad yet so exciting. we were honoured with two whole episodes this week and they were great - the guys got together to chat with tayshia and chris harrison (and they expressed their discontentment with yosef), the final four were chosen and then filtered down to three (what an L for ben). nardos and i discuss our thoughts on all this and more, plus we have a little chat on men's fashion, inspired by zac c.

        happy listening!

        • The Bachelorette s16 e6 & e7

          nardos and i discuss who the true "grown-ass men" in the house are and who the true "man-children" are. 

          two notes: 

          • this episode is a late release - it was recorded a week ago, after episode 6 was released. 
          • i was experimenting with background music here... if you feel strongly about it in either way, please lmk!

          • #12 Family Matters: Shona Culture + Diaspora Life with Tavonga
            in this week's episode i am joined by my lovely cousin, sekuru, and friend, Tavonga (click here to watch video episode on YouTube).
            Tavonga and i are really great friends and in this episode we discuss everything from moving from Zimbabwe to the diaspora, police brutality on this side of the world, Shona culture including the topic of roora, aka brideprice, and we also share some stories from when we were growing up.  
            at some point in the episode i mentioned the song 'Madam Mombeshora' so here it is, and here's a bit of something on the Shona practice of roora for those of you interested in knowing more (this one is for you, dear future husband, in addition to the rest of the readings). Here's a lighter read on it.
            i once wrote a term paper on roora so let me know if you'd like to read that and i'll happily send it over.
            happy listening!

          • The Bachelorette s16 e4 & e5

            covering two episodes at once? WHOA! well, we mostly focus on episode 5 hehe.

            in this episode nardos and i discuss the last two episodes of our lovely show, the bachelorette. we give our opinions on the newly engaged couple, dale and clare (congrats to them), and we also share our feeling on tayshia's first few days with the guys. we point out some clear favourites and clear nots, discuss what we would carry with us to pass time if we were ever on the show, and we talk safety on dates.

            happy listening!
