Relationships (and by conclusion, marriage) are a staple of our society. But lately, we ask ourselves why it's a thing and why we should want it. Here's a romantic perspective on why people desire to be in relationships and hence, why they get married. Enjoy.

[About The Episode]

We constantly hear many Christian believers describe their faith and devotion as a relationship with God devoid of transactions. But I beg to differ. I think transactions are at the very foundation of every relationship, and "faith" isn't exempt. This episode discusses transactional Christianity and why people might not be attending church as much anymore in Nigeria.

[About The Episode]

Christianity is the largest religion in the world, boasting billions in numbers. Chances are you've interacted with a Christian and came out of it smiling or fuming (50/50). This episode talks about the fuming part. Why are Christians constantly accused of lacking empathy and kindness, even though they say those are their MO?

[About The Episode]

Forgiveness is a concept that manifests itself across many aspects of our lives. We're taught it's a virtue of divine origins and that we should always, always forgive. But when the harm is done, the hurt lingers and forgiving is not what comes to mind. Are we wrong? Is it right to ask or demand forgiveness of those who have been hurt and victimized?
