Tales From The Plantation

This month Tunde and Nezzy are joined by special guest Carla Adebekun to talk about the different experiences of race and ethnicity particularly in the context of growing up coloured in South Africa, and how moving to the UK brought new experiences again, as well as an introduction to actual Black History. We also talk about THAT Heinz advert and the impact of the lack of Diversity, and the Grammys and the reactions to seeing Beyonce finally win AOTY. Check out Carla's podcast "Connecting Conversations with Cohesia Connect", and check out her group HopeGene's new single "Renew".

This month Tunde, Nezzy and special guest Goke (Goke Solanke on LinkedIn) talk about what it has been like working in "Corporate Spaces" and just how comfortable they feel navigating those predominantly white professional spaces. We also talk about how little rizz Elon Musk has, and how easy it is to date as a single Christian.

How do you balance personal politics with religious doctrines? We also talk about Donald Trump's growing list of merchandise as he prepares to reenter the White House, the world's response to Luigi Mangione, and our Spotify Wrapped including Tunde's entrance for potentially the worst "Top Song" ever.

This month we are joined by special guest Rejoice (@RejiYates) talking about our experience of Black entrepreneurship. What does authenticity look like? Is there a cap to your success? And are Londoners actually bad vibes? We also discuss the news of Kemi Badenoch being named leader of the Conservative Party, and share our thoughts on the last weeks of campaigning in the US elections.
