  • Episode 33: Social Culture

    This episode was inspired by the YouTube video "Cut"

    Mame and I discuss videos from the YouTube channel "Cut", a channel which has interesting videos including blind dating and asking people interesting questions. We compare those videos to what is currently in the social culture in the city of Accra. We discuss open relationships, infidelity, the concept of "body count", lack of sex education, and my recent blind dating experience.

  • Episode 28: Modern Family

    On today's show, I spoke to a couple of women about their experience having children. What makes these guests unique is that all of their pregnancies were kind of "unplanned".
