  • Nigeria We Hail Thee
    This episode is a brief social commentary on the state of things within the ‘African Giant’, Nigeria.
    On this episode Bayo rants.
    No script, no jokes… okay, a couple of jokes, and no long talk.
    “… I love Nigeria, but you have to admit they give me so much material for this podcast. This time, I couldn’t help myself.”

  • EXTINCT JOBS: Trivia Edition
    This one goes out to all the unemployed, to the ones who hate their jobs, and to those who think they have ultimate job security. I (in very Bayo fashion) went looking for a list of extinct jobs and I found gold. Whether it's judging intelligence by the shape of a person's head, or treating illnesses with toads, strap up and dive in, it's game show time.

  • The Funeral Clown
    In ancient Rome, whenever certain high-ranking members of society had passed on, a certain type of person with very special skills would be summoned to... well, there's no easy way to put this, make fun of the dead. Yeah, they would basically clown on their graves. What a joke!
    If you're wondering why or how this was even a thing, you're going to have to listen to this week's what a joke episode.
    Oh and if you're looking to hire a funeral clown, just email these guys [email protected]

  • The Mandela Effect
    Stop me if you’ve heard this one before… Nigeria lost to India by ninety-nine goals to one. Or that the Monopoly man has a monocle in his eye.
    If you have, you’ve probably fallen victim to the Mandela effect… and the Agents of Misinformation.
    In this episode, What a Joke exposes this phenomenon for what it truly is and dives deeper into the world wide web of lies that is… the internet!

  • Cultured V Cultist V Classist
    Nearly two years have passed since we last broached this topic, and I'm sad to say... things have only gotten worse.
    On this episode, I'm joined in the studio by the most chaotic cast to feature on What a Joke to date. Along with my five guests, we table the matter (pun intended) that is Food Cultism, introduce a new category of individuals, and in true Cultured vs. cultist fashion, hear the most inhumane food combinations to ever grace our ears. I'm not hearing all this alone.

  • The Great Bayo Fight
    We've covered a lot of battles during what a joke's run. Some against principalities and powers, and some against mere men... but we've never covered the struggle with oneself.
    This is the story of what happens when man can no longer coexist nor bear the burden of sharing what is most dear to them... A name.
    This is the story of one of those things conceived during the lockdown, and birthed the year after, like What a Joke.

  • World “news”
    Roughly four months have passed since the last season and wow, people have been up to a LOT of dumb stuff. If I could tell you some of it, I would... Oh wait, I can, and I did.
    It's a new season and the same old joke of a world, and we're glad to be back!
    In this episode, we cover world news and some of the craziest headlines I came across including possibly cursed airlines, flying criminals, false monies and broken networks.

  • The Final Joke
    6 seasons, 5 characters, 4 wars, 3 years, 2 awards, 1 Bayo.
    The cat's out of the bag now. This is the reason there haven't been any new episodes for a while. Wherever you are, whenever you are, please listen with a bit more intent. This was... difficult to record.
    I will forever be in awe of what we've accomplished in our time together. What a Joke is till date, the greatest comedy podcast out of the shores of Africa, and for what it's worth, if anything ever surpasses it, I hope this podcast inspires it.
    The podcast community will still run as per usual and you can join here.

    If you're already in the community, DON'T break the news to others. It'll be best they get it... from here.

About What A Joke

From the publisher's feed

From the dawn of time, or at least since the dawn of the calendar, Monday has been known as the most dreaded day of the week.
This is why it’s perfect for what a Joke.
It’s a comedy podcast true…
