Your Mate Podcast is back!!! But things are a little different this time around...

We are no longer recording from our respective Melbourne (Australia) homes...

We are no longer in lockdown...

Where in Africa you may ask? Well, you better tune in to find our more.

The first episode of Your Mate in Africa is out now, and we can't wait to catch you all up!!!

We discuss why we are blessed despite troubling times, and why 'locker room antics' can be racist without you even knowing ... as well as the usual tomfoolery!

Keep listening until the end to hear our black business shout-out!

We continue to discuss our process of dealing with the lock-down, and tap in to what people can do to improve their relationships by finding out what the 'love language' of you partner is ... as well as our regular tomfoolery!

Listen out for our black business shout-out at the end of the episode!

We discuss what's happening in Lebanon, offer reasons why we think women should rule the world, and pour over the difficulties of navigating race politics (using Jonathon Issac and a TCU Football coach as example.

We take a moment to remember the amazing Dr. Hawa Abdi legacy (who sadly passed away on the 5th of August 2020). We also discuss how people (including ourselves) are dealing with the stage 4 restrictions in Victoria (Australia), and explain why we should be worried about ‘Murder Hornets’ and the extinction of Bees.

We try and understand why people would even want to "fight for their country", and whether or not Andre Iguodala was being sexist when he posted a complimentary tweet about Aerial Powers (WNBA Star) but didn't use her name?

Urban Dictionary defines 'Your Mate' as:

We declare our intentions to "win this period", offer our perspective on how the government has handled the case of the young black women who were busted for alleged "border fraud", Akwasi makes a strong case for relegating our partners, friends and family member based on poor performance (ala EPL), and is Ellen Degeneres a b*&^h?

Faz explains (at length) the reasons why the black community cannot afford to lose Kanye West (Akwasi disagrees :D), and we also ridicule people for attempting to cross the border in order to avoid being stuck at home.
