Hey everyone, this episode is an interview I had with Idowu Odeyemi, a Nigerian philosopher working in social and political philosophy, moral philosophy, and social epistemology.

Our conversation centres around two of his essays, "African Philosophy cannot be a thing", and "On Accent and Confidence". We also discuss his dissertation, which explores some moral considerations surrounding oppression.

To read some of his work or get in touch, visit Idowu's website ⁠here⁠.

Hey everyone, in this episode, I discuss an article titled "I Do Not Want To Choose The Restaurant, Honey" with its author, Oliver Vonnegut. You can read the essay here.

Our conversation focuses on themes relating to power, surrender, fascism, and all the moral/political issues that arise with these themes.

I hope you find it interesting.

Hey everyone,

In this episode, I have a wonderful conversation with Katilau Mbindyo, who recently finished her PhD in African Studies at Harvard (slay).

Our conversation centres around a bunch of the things that she's spent time with during her time in academia ~ studying Italian, going to seminary and being at Harvard.

We talk about African Studies, what it is and what it could be, and we talk about religion, ancestors, spirituality and African philosophy. I hope you find this interesting.

Thanks for being here.

Well hey everyone. Happy '25.

In this episode, I monologue for a bit on the first babies of my PhD-- the research papers I worked on in my first term.

There is still work to be done on them, and these are all overviews, but I hope you, at the very least, find them interesting.

I talk about Fanon and some ethical considerations regarding decolonial violence, and (my issues with) the concept of Perpetual Struggle argued for by the philosopher Kathryn Norlock.

Many things were said in this episode, and much was left out. With any questions, feel free to reach out. Take care, until then.

Hey everyone, welcome to another episode of the podcast. You're here, and that's pretty groovy.

In this episode, I have a wonderful conversation with Maya, who some of you might know as @skyfisherforskyfish on Tiktok~ You might have seen her videos on practical ways to cripple capitalism, or you might have seen some of her empathy-focused love advice videos.

Here, we talk about Maya the artist for a bit, exploring existential questions about poetry and what it means to be an artist. Then, we explore Nietzsche, vibing around the concept of morality and questioning it as Nietzsche would've wanted. Finally, we talk about love- its connection to activism, why we need it now more than ever and why, at this crucial moment, it seems to be lacking.

I hope you enjoy this episode; check out all of Maya's stuff here.

Hey everyone, welcome to another episode of the podcast.

First of all, slay, this episode has some intro music. Let me know what you think of it and if you have a desire for outro music as well.

In this episode, I have a chat with Tomris (aka @philosophy.girl on TikTok). She was doing philosophy tiktoks before they were cool but decided to leave the app for interesting reasons some time ago.

Here, we talk about her studies in classics and ancient Greek, where she shares some fun things to know about the ancient world. We then talk a bit about the ethics of being on TikTok, and why it's, in some ways, such a weird place to exist in. Then, we talk about stoicism (and broicism) and Tomris shares some wisdom from her top homeboy Seneca.

I hope you find this conversation interesting. Remember to vibe, now and always.

Hey everyone, I'm back from a pretty long hiatus, so that's nice.

In this episode, I ramble for a bit on Nigeria, my wonderful home. It includes some stories of interesting/frustrating experiences I've had at airports back home, a section where I dream out loud about how Nigerian politics could be arranged, and it ends with some advice from Frantz Fanon.

Thanks for listening, now and always.

Hey everyone,

In this episode, I monologue for a bit on Afrocracy-- a concept that I find super interesting. I was going to name this episode "Afro-crazy?" but that seemed a bit much.

Anyways, it'd be great to get a conversation going so as always, feel free to reach out with any questions.

Hey everyone, super glad you're here.

This is Episode 1 of what I call the Modern Sage Philosophy (MSP) project, inspired by the work of the Kenyan philosopher Henry Odera Oruka. In this series, I hope to interview philosophers who live and work in worlds outside of Western philosophy.

This episode is a conversation with Dr Elvis Imafidon on themes in the African Philosophy world. I hope you find this interesting.

Hey everyone, in this episode, I have a conversation with Julie Uszpolewicz, the editor-in-chief of Phi Magazine, a quarterly publication aimed at showcasing the creative talents of Philosophy students across the globe.

Julie has a lot of super cool philosophical/cultural/political insights, and this conversation explores a few of them. We discuss Dune, the Biblical Fall of Man in Political Philosophy and Postmodernism (with a few other cool things sprinkled in).

I hope you find this interesting.
