Sithe tries to podcast

This is THE LAST EPISODE in the series. I'm back in SA and so ends my holiday. I'm prepping to head to an AI exam at the moment of publishing. I got to talk to Daniel Photo aka malgamves last night about school, exam stress, his Twitter handle and a whole bunch of other interesting revelations before we got interrupted by load shedding. Make sure to check out DevCon_ZM: Zambia's annual developer conference which Daniel will be helping to organize.

Welcome to a very special episode where I kick off the year with CodeCast ZM hosts, Mukuma and Elias! These gentlemen have had a lot of experience with community organizing for tech events in Zambia. After some catching up we talked a bit about the highs and lows of community organizing in Zambia, what we've learned, and any tips we would give to people starting out communities in Zambia.

For some reason, I am struggling to review the decade. It wasn't that great when I look at it. I'm grateful for a lot of things but the big picture of my life in the 2010s doesn't make me so happy. Send me a voice note and tell me your thoughts about the 2010s. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/sithe-ncube/message

Happy Holidays and welcome back! Today I decided to do an unboxing of unboxings?.. to celebrate the day after the day after Christmas?

Sometimes you actually do need to STFU Animal chart thing with shark, owl, turtle, teddy and fox Aba and Preach video Context matters in this of course. This only works for balanced relationships or relationships you actually want/need to preserve imo. And if you need to save your interests then the shark is appropriate. But it's okay to be a turtle sometimes to just let little conflicts blow over. 7. Running my own Table Top RPG Harry Potter and the TableTop RPG 8.

Well! I was signing up for Anchor because I wanted to do a limited series podcast over the December holiday where I try to find my voice and get comfortable with being recorded. Got two things off the list: Tested the mic and made a podcast trailer all in one go. Stay tuned for some bi-weekly stuff if you want to hear more of me. Episodes uploaded every Thursday and Monday night for the next month or so. I made that up just now. Now we have a schedule too! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/sithe-ncube/message
