“Loving someone is like sculpting—you either create a masterpiece or a disaster piece.”

*

• In the fourth installment of the Lovers’ Series, The Young God revisits one of its most iconic ideas: Love is Like Agbalumo. Originally released in 2021, this fan-favorite episode returns—re-recorded, remastered, and reimagined—with deeper wisdom, sharper analogies, and a fuller understanding of love as both sweetness and sacrifice. Using the African star apple as metaphor, Rodney explores love’s unpredictability, self-knowledge, intimacy, patience, and growth. This episode is a meditation on loving well, choosing depth over speed, and why love—not marriage—should be the true human priority. A full-circle moment, five years in the making.

“Sex is plentiful, beauty is common, but seduction is an endangered phenomenon.”
*

In this third installment of The Lovers’ Series, Rodney Omeokachie dives headfirst into the lost art of toasting—seduction, first moves, rejection, and the gender dynamics quietly shaping modern Nigerian dating. With brutal honesty, cultural insight, and wit, Rodney unpacks why men and women keep missing each other despite wanting the same things: love, connection, and partnership. From feminine subtlety and masculine risk-taking to nervous systems, intuition, and “same team alpha energy,” this episode cuts through online dating noise and speaks directly to the heart of attraction. Provocative, necessary, and unfiltered—this one is for people who are truly in the game.

"Maybe people would have better success if they approached romantic relationships like venture capitalists."

*

Modern dating is loud, confusing, and strangely joyless. Everyone has opinions. Everyone has trauma. And everyone is lonely.

In this episode of The Young God, Rodney turns his gaze on the dating streets — from hypergamy and hoeflation to money, status, feminism, masculinity, and the quiet death of flirting. Why are decent people struggling to connect? Why does dating feel more like a negotiation than a dance? And why does selecting for “finished products” almost always end in heartbreak?

This is not a soft episode. Expect hot takes, uncomfortable truths, and zero hand-holding. Rodney speaks directly to men and women about judgment, character, desire, and what actually sustains love over time. He also shares 17 hard-earned relationship lessons that cut through the noise.

In a world that treats love like a scam, choosing something real may be the most radical act of all.

A word is enough for a god.

• “In our time, no one has the conception of what is great. It is up to me to show them.”- Napoleon

• *

• In this episode, Rodney explores what it means to be great (and how to become it). Using Timothée Chalamet’s polarizing SAG Awards speech as a launch pad, Rodney dismantles fake humility, exposes society’s discomfort with ambition, and reframes greatness as honesty, alignment, and courage.

Set against the energy of 2026 being the year of the Fire Horse, he breaks down the mindset of winners, the biology of consistency, and why a regulated nervous system is the real cheat code. He speaks on solitude, discipline, posture, loneliness, ancestry, ego, faith, and why most people admire greatness instead of becoming it. This is not motivation fluff. This is a blueprint. This is the sweet science of greatness.

If you’ve ever felt different, restless, called to more — this episode is a line in the sand. Give Rodney 30 minutes, and you’ll either step into your greatness era… or realize how basic you really are.

"People are moving misaligned. The mind is saying one thing, the body is saying another, and the spirit is just there, confused." - Rodney

*

In this episode, Rodney turns his godly gaze toward anxiety, depression, and the quiet contradictions that fracture modern lives. He challenges the comforting stories we tell ourselves about the state of the world, mental health, and powerlessness—and instead traces suffering back to misalignment, self-betrayal, and resistance in the body. Moving between psychology, spirituality, relationships, and lived experience, Rodney reframes anxiety not as a flaw to eliminate but as intelligence pointing toward unfinished work. He explores why calm people move through chaos with clarity, why vision boards fail unregulated nervous systems, and why peace has less to do with relaxation and more to do with inner coherence. This episode is not soothing. It is clarifying. It asks the listener to stop outsourcing responsibility, stop clenching against reality, and stop mistaking numbness for healing. If you’ve been stuck, spiraling, or searching for answers outside yourself, this conversation will feel uncomfortably personal—in the way that truth usually does.

"Reaching 300 episodes... is the equivalent of Ronaldo scoring 1000 goals. 300 is evidence of dedication, passion, and a commitment to extracting every ounce out of my gift and talent."

As is tradition, every 100-episode milestone is marked by a special episode where Rodney reflects on the journey thus far. This time, he does things a little differently: First, he breaks down the spiritual, biblical, historical, and numerological significance of the number 300, and then he plays the role of interviewer and interviewee, asking and answering the pertinent questions that go into producing 300 episodes as an army-of-one. He spills the creative tea, taking you behind the scenes of his creative process --- how each episode gets made from start to finish. He also talks about the sacrifices he's made, the dues he's paid, and the foundation he's laid for the next phase of the journey.

All in all, this milestone episode feels a little different from the previous ones because -- according to Rodney -- it signals that he is closer to the end than to the beginning of the podcast phase of the journey.

"Are you honoring your gifts? Or are you wasting time, watching others honor theirs?" - Rodney

In this episode, Rodney turns his godly gaze upon the God-given gifts designed to give us an unfair advantage on our earthly journey. Everyone has a gift. While some have figured out their gift and are living in it, others are not as decisive -- they know their gift but don't know what to do with it, or they don't know at all and don't care to know. As one who is living within his gift, Rodney shares his experience of honoring his gifts. He lists the benefits and the unscripted moments borne out of aligning his life choices through his gift. He talks about how much more fulfilling a career can be when it is aligned with our unique gifts. He also talks semantics -- the difference between skills and gifts, talent and genius, and the levels to them.

He then pivots to the darker side of things -- the pain of unexplored potential, the mental and spiritual anguish of ignoring or dishonoring one's gifts. He uses mythology and the Bible to make his case. Finally, Rodney encourages those who are standing on the edge to take the leap, with the promise that their gifts will catch them. If you are fortunate to be gift-aligned, you will enjoy this episode. If not, you are about to hear something that will alter your brain chemistry in unexpected ways. And if you listen to the end, you will hear about the greatest gift of them all, the one gift that is available to us all. This is the perfect episode leading up to next week's 300-episode milestone.

""We listen, we don't judge"... But that’s exactly the problem. We don’t judge enough. We are so afraid of being judged or coming off as judgmental." - Rodney

Imagine having the ability to accurately read a person’s personality, values, and moral qualities—not just their outward behavior or appearance. AKA being a good judge of character. Listen to Rodney break down the good, the bad, and the ugly of human nature, as well as the hacks to navigating it. Rodney believes that-- to avoid stories that touch-- one must be judgmental. He lists love and pattern recognition (a combination of heart and mind) as the two skills that make one an excellent judge.

Rodney uses his experiences, the bible, and some of his favorite songs to take the listener through the messy reality of human nature, pointing out the things people overlook and misunderstand about each other and themselves, so that ultimately, we're no longer shocked by people and their behaviour towards us. By the time you’re done, you won’t look at yourself or others the same. Brace yourself.

"Good people are not rare at all. It’s either you don’t know how to judge goodness, or you’re the oil to their water — you’re so different, you don’t mix." - Rodney

What does it mean to be a good person -- in the real sense of the word? Rodney focuses his godly gaze on the idea of goodness -- The Reality, Impossibility, Spirituality and the rewards. A lot of people delude themselves about how good they are. And that delusion actually makes them worse. Rodney shatters the mirror by breaking down -- in great detail -- what it takes to be good and what goodness really looks like. Starting from the book of Genesis to the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, Rodney unpacks goodness in a way most religious leaders could never. He even lists the spiritual, emotional, and mental rewards (even the rewards in the afterlife) of being a genuinely good person. Ultimately, this episode is for those who are genuinely curious and serious about being good people. Rodney draws a map and offers a compass that will guide even the most lost souls.
