Undone The Podcast

In this episode of Undone, Kudzai sits down with Betiel Beyin and Leigh Lule, the creative minds behind CEEBs — the hit comedy series set in a local community centre and told through the quick, chaotic lens of TikTok. Together, they unpack the power of humour as a storytelling tool, how their friendship shapes their on-screen chemistry, and why community spaces matter now more than ever. From navigating TikTok’s wild algorithm to spotlighting African-Australian youth culture with authenticity and heart, this conversation explores how laughter can be a form of resistance, reflection, and connection.

In this episode, we explore the power of present fatherhood within the African Australian community. What difference does it make when fathers show up, not just as providers, but as nurturers, guides, and role models? We dive into the unique role fathers play in shaping their sons’ lives, the ripple effects of fatherhood on families and communities, and the challenges that come with balancing cultural expectations and personal growth. This conversation is both tender and practical, highlighting how fathers can leave a lasting legacy of strength, love, and presence. Full video available on our YouTube channel.
