  • Why don’t bus drivers wave at eachother anymore ft Chikamso

    Apple subscriptions are draining my bank account, bus drivers don’t even wave at each other anymore, and honestly… adulthood is exhausting.


    In this episode of Faking Adulthood, I’m joined by Chikamso as we dive into the chaos of birthday dinners, the slow crumble of society, and why being a “real adult” still feels like a scam. It’s awkward, funny, and way too real.
