Happy gold medals top Africa! And happy new episode to you! The only podcast certified to be played by Motswana sprinters before beating arrogant Americans brings you something different. Today, Dan & Phil cross over to Kenya to speak to former radio host, entrepreneur, and podcast host Adelle Onyango. Almost 3 years ago, Adelle hosted us as guests on her HUGE podcast Legally Clueless (you can find the episode here), and it was our pleasure to return the favour and speak to her in this week’s episode. Adelle tells us her inspiring story, starting as a (struggling) poet before making her way to radio, and building the 3rd biggest show in the country before leaving once again to start a company and a podcast. Adelle is also actively involved in the protests in Kenya, in fact, she had just arrived from dodging police and teargas for the recording! She shares the story behind the reason for the protests and how Kenya’s youth are leading the charge. What an inspiring episode, enjoy!
In the final live episode of the year, Dan & Phil unite with half of lil bro podcast 6Ft Weights to review the biggest stories of the year and give each other an opportunity to revise our takes at the time. What was the best song in the Drake - Kendrick beef? Was Chidimma Adetshina really a victim of xenophobia as we said at first? Are you still mad at Learnmore Jonasi? Anyone walking back what they said about Jay-Z? And a whole lot more in this fun episode, enjoy!
