White Label American

Every time a guest opens up and shares a part of their journey that a few years ago, I would have done my best to hide, I am always honored that my guests chose my platform to do so and will forever be grateful. Michael Burhan is an actor, director, voice artist, and all-around creative. He is a teacher and lover of animals. I admire Michael's embrace of life, fatherhood, accountability, breaking out of the cycle of toxicity, sexuality, immigrant journey, and so much more. I can listen to Michael forever.

Michael is worthy of your time!

Matilda Bakare is amongst the best people to have adopted me into the podcast family since we became acquainted. Matilda is not your average Nigerian-born mechanical engineer, neither is she your average podcaster. In this episode, we explore home, Nigerian music, Canadian adjusting, Anti-Blackness, food, and more. Matilda is one of the co-hosts of Africalypso, a fun-filled superb podcast hosted by three amazing women. I was fortunate to have been a guest back in March. Check them out in the link below!

Prepare to "obtained" in this conversation with the host of the amazing Culture Class Podcast Nosa Iyare. A lot of Bendel and Nigerian slang were used in our chat. Nosa's life so far has taken him through many cities and experiences where he has not missed an opportunity to learn from different cultures.

Last year by fortune I came across a virtual event called Africa Podcasting Festival (Africa Podfest). Opened my eyes to my blind spot when it came to connecting with fellow creatives in the podcasting community. Josephine Karianjahi is one of the brains behind this great annual event that continues to bring podcasters on the continent and the diaspora together. Enjoy this celebrated connector, international developer, and social changemakers story so far.

This was a long-overdue episode. This might be one of the deepest 

It is often said that "heroes don't always wear capes," Uchechukwu Onwa is proof that we do not require a cape or uniform before stepping up and doing what is right. This man has been through a lot and I mean a lot, yet he continues to shine the light and fight for that which is right. Uche also provides help to Queer immigrants, helping make settling easier for them. Nigeria the country of my birth is not a safe place for a Queer person who isn't from a wealthy family. This man navigated a very hostile environment before coming over to the United States (which isn't Uhuru). This is an American story that we all need to hear.

Uchechukwu is a co-director at qderp.org You can also find Uche on Facebook under his name, on Instagram @famousval992 & @famousvalcouture Go check out his designs.

I did not endorse Danko the former governor of Nairobi in this episode. Shiro is a sister of this podcast and mine. A woman with an amazing story that takes off in Nakuru, and is a version of the American story that is without a doubt the main reason for why this podcast exists. I love this woman's dedication, energy, tenacity, and vibe. Please check out and support her podcast too. Shiro is also a superb entrepreneur!

After our first #blindian couple on last week's episode. What better than having a second couple that's #blindian and our first couple from  Canada. Janice and Malik are filmmakers, students, content creators amongst many great talents that they bring to the table. They also share ties to Pakistan and Uganda along with being practitioners of different faiths. Janice and Malik are beautiful people (literally too) whose YouTube channel is a pure source of joy that I highly recommend. This is an episode is dedicated to awesome love stories out there.
