No phenomenon can justify political control more than religion can. History has proven that with the "nobles" and the "anointed". Some believe it is the number 1 tool for mind control and others believe it is one of the inalienable pillars of society. 

16 of the 20 poorest nations in the world are in Africa and yet we are arguably the most religious continent. However, there are still nations like the United States of America or the United Arab Emirates who are deeply religious and yet, are still well advanced in the development matrix. Are they anomalies? In this instance, does correlation mean causation?

Puumaya Fareedah Nantogmah, Barima Peprah-Agyemang and Joel Telfer join me in this discussion.

In a conversation coloured by anecdotes ranging from a heartbreak that sent her backpacking to South East Asia, to the story of being at an all time low after witnessing a suicide, Vidette Adjorlolo steers us into the life of a TRAVELER - a stable nomad. She is currently a Schwarzman Global Scholar and the co-owner of a travel company known as "Sorted Chale" after having visited about 30 countries.

This is the second of two personality profiles I bring to you this season. Here is a conversation with Vidette Adjorlolo about the life of a traveler in which she believes that not all wanderers are lost. Enjoy!

In this episode, we let you into a lady's world where she speaks about being at the brink of marriage once and being let down.

If you’ve never fully paid your wedding vendors, had a knocking ceremony, set a date for your wedding and suddenly be told by your partner that he is not ready to watch you walk down the aisle, then you know nothing of her pain. She dealt with all this while working as a Barrister with the crown prosecution service in the U.K.

This is the second of two parts of a conversation with Eddy Jay. He shares his peculiar story of how smuggling narcotics from Brazil to Ghana earned him 9 years 2 months and 15 days in the Nsawam Medium Security Prison.

He also lets us into the world of the incarcerated with vivid descriptions that only highlight how flawed the justice system of Ghana (and possibly Africa) is.
