  • I’m triggered by your accent (respectfully) ft Adeola K

    Welcome to another episode of Faking Adulthood – home of the fake adults, where we talk about everything and nothing!


    I’m your host, Rita Balogun, and today my co-host is the fabulous Adeola K. 


    In this episode, we’re asking the real questions:

    🔊 Why aren’t fans actually silent in 2025?

    🗣️ Why do certain accents trigger us emotionally (no shade… okay, maybe a little)?

    🧠 Forehead debates: Is it big, or are you projecting?

    📉 And finally: Are you as adult as you think you are? Spoiler alert… probably not.


    If you’re into chaotic deep dives, unfiltered banter, and laugh-out-loud fake wisdom—this one’s for you. 💥


    💬 Let us know in the comments: What accent gives you war flashbacks? Be honest (but respectful)!


    Wondering if you’re an asshole? Ask me here and we’ll let you know in the new episode:
