Yomi Adegoke on "The List" + British Empire Legacy W/Chagos Islands "Return" - S2 EP15 In this week's Black Political Rant, Kehinde Andrews talks about the positives and negatives of UK foreign secretary David Lammy announcing that Britain will be "returning" sovereignty of the Chagos Islands to the Mauritian government.

In today's episode, author Yomi Adegoke discusses her new novel, The List, which was inspired by a similar document published online during the #MeToo Movement. She tells NPR's Ayesha Rascoe how Ola and Michael's Blackness, online anonymity, and social media complicate – and challenge – Ola's personal and political convictions.
In this episode, Caggie is joined by Yomi Adegoke, a prominent voice in journalism and the bestselling author of Slay in Your Lane and recent Sunday Times Best Seller, The List. Caggie kicks off the episode by delving into Yomi's early life and her unexpected path into journalism. We explore how she entered the creative world and navigated the instability and uncertainties of this career choice. However, she explains that her journey defied expectations and led her to where she truly belongs. Writing a book is no small feat, and Yomi candidly shares her struggles with imposter syndrome during the process. Caggie and Yomi delve into her new book, The List, and discuss the toxic world of cancel culture, where Yomi provides her unique perspective on this phenomenon and explores the powerful influence of social media. Additionally, Caggie and Yomi discuss the dissonance between our online and offline personas, uncovering how everyone becomes a different person when interacting behind the screen. Whether you're a journalism enthusiast, a writer, or simply curious about the dynamics of social media and cancel culture, this episode promises fascinating insights.

Hey, book clubbers! This month we read ‘The List' by Yomi Adegoke. Ola is a high-profile journalist at a feminist website who is one month away from marrying Michael, the love of her life. One morning, they both wake up to the same message: ‘Oh my god, have you seen The List?' The List began as a crowdsourced collection of men in the media who had been accused of everything from sexual misconduct to homophobia. Ola would be the first journalist to report on a list like this one, but this time, Michael's name is on it. CW: This episode does mention sexual assault and suicide, and may be triggering to some listeners. If you or someone you know needs help, please call or Lifeline at 13 11 14.

The List by Yomi Adegoke. Ola is a high profile journalist at a feminist magazine, who's about to marry the love of her life. Young, beautiful and successful, she and her fiancé Michael seem to have it all. That is, until one morning they both wake up to the same message. A crowdsourced collection of names has morphed into an anonymous account posting Me Too type allegations on social media, and usually Ola would be all over it, retweeting it and forwarding to everyone she knows - but Michael's name is on the list. Far North by David White and Angus Gillies. In 2016, an unlikely mix of men got together and planned to import 500kg of meth into the Far North of New Zealand from a ship anchored offshore. This is the story of how they went about it and if you didn't know it was true you'd think it was fiction. The mistakes they made were epic, and the police work wasn't stellar either so the combination of the two is just hilarious. It's been made into a TV series which starts on TV3 on Monday night, starring Robyn Malcolm and Temuera Morrison. I've see the first episode and it's wonderful TV. This one is well worth a read just for the sheer incompetence of the team. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Zoe Saldaña has appeared in the top three grossing movies of all time – Avatar, Avatar: Way of Water and Avengers: Endgame. You may know her as Uhura in the Star Trek reboot films, Gamora in Guardians of the Galaxy, or as Neytiri in Avatar. Now Zoe is taking a break from sci-fi and fantasy to star in a new, Earth-based TV series called Special Ops: Lioness. It's a spy thriller about a covert programme that trains and dispatches women around the world as undercover operatives. Zoe joined Nuala to record an interview last week, before the US actors' strike was called. The Metropolitan Police has started using counter-terrorism tactics to hunt down the 100 worst male sexual predators targeting women. Nuala gets the reaction of former Inspector of Constabulary Zoe Billingham, who led the 2021 review of the policing response to violence against women and girls, calling for it to be treated with the same priority as terrorism. 15 countries in the Middle East and North Africa still apply laws that require women to either 'obey' their husbands or seek their permission to leave the marital home, work, or travel. That's according to a new report from Human Rights Watch, which compares the state of male guardianship laws across the region. The report finds that, although women's rights activists have been successful in winning some freedoms, new restrictions are still being implemented – particularly in areas of conflict such as Yemen and Syria. Rothna Begum, Senior Women's Rights Researcher, joins Nuala to explain the findings. Yomi Adegoke is the co-author of the bestselling guide, Slay in Your Lane: A Black Girl's Bible. Now she's stepping into the world of fiction with her debut novel, The List. Journalist Ola and her fiancé Michael are getting married in a month, but their excitement is shattered when a database of men in the world of media, and allegations of sexual harassment against them, is anonymously posted online. And Michael is on it. How will the couple navigate the fall out? Yomi joins Nuala to talk about why she wanted to write this story. For the first time in fifty years, humans will soon be returning to the moon. Sara Pastor is the project manager and Chief Engineer of the International Habitation module – the place where astronauts will live and study scientific findings in space as part of the Artemis Mission, set to happen in the next few years. Sara joins Nuala to talk about why this is such an important project for human exploration, and how women are at the centre of it.
This week's guest is the journalist and author Yomi Adegoke.

Sadness happens to all of us, but in much of the world we don't know how to handle it. Let alone talk about it. Having spent 10 years researching into happiness worldwide as a journalist and author, I began to notice that many of the people I met were so obsessed with the pursuit of happiness that they were phobic of feeling sad. As was I. So why are we so bad at ‘sad'? How is there still shame around expressing vulnerability? And are there some any ‘good' things about being sad? I couldn't find anywhere people were having these kinds of conversations - so I started my own. Each episode, I'm joined by a special guest sharing their own experiences of how to be sad, well with insightful and surprisingly uplifting stories of lives lived. Here are some of the highlights so far, ahead of series five, launching next week: - From S3E8 with Kate Bowler, NYT bestselling author and Duke history professor on being diagnosed with colon cancer at just 35 years old, navigating life with the knowledge it could end any moment, ‘emotional tourism', bucket lists and why Kate won't be making one. TW: cancer - From S1E7 with Yomi Adegoke, award-winning journalist and bestselling co-author of Slay In Your Lane: The Black Girl Bible on how being sad and expressing grief can be political and the perils of performing our emotions online. - From S4E1 with Emily Dean, author of Everyone Died So I Got A Dog, radio presenter and podcaster on family roles and the different pressures these bring. - From S4E2 where bestselling author Mitch Albom shares a little known story about how the bestseller Tuesdays With Morrie came about. - From S3E5 with Dr Julie Smith, clinical psychologist and former NHS turned TikTok star and author of Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before? on what happens when we push emotions away, how the stakes get higher the longer we stay in ‘the trap', and what we should be doing instead. - From S2E5 with Jody Day, founder of Gateway Women, the global support network for childless women on unhelpful cultural ideas around not having children, disenfranchised grief and how to heal it. TW: grief, childlessness not by choice, IVF - From S4E1 with Emily Dean, on how to support someone who's grieving. TW: sibling bereavement - From S1E4 with Mo Gawdat, Solve For Happy author, tech entrepreneur and former chief business officer for Google X on how life is like a video game (and this is A Good Thing). TW: losing a child - From S4E2 Mitch Albom on the pain of losing his daughter and the impact this had on his marriage. Plus why happiness isn't a guarantee: it's a gift that can help us to be sad, better. TW: losing a child You can find all the books we talk about on the How To Be Sad podcast recommends page at Bookshop.org where you can also find the book, How To Be Sad, now in paperback.

Nono is an author, entrepreneur, film producer, podcaster and speaker – there's almost nothing Nono doesn't love and will do. Well, except for one thing – biking! It is a great twist of fate, then, that this man and his friend traveled from Berlin to Beijing a few years ago – by bicycle. Out of his comfort zone, onto the saddle and straight into the big wide world – and all for a great cause. This journey inspired him to produce “Biking Borders,” one of the most-watched documentaries on Netflix. A crazy journey watched and supported by people from all over the world. He talks to us about his lessons for living a truly fulfilled life, his mission, and new ways of fundraising. One question Nono has asked himself over and over again in recent years is: What do I really want in life?

Welcome to the third episode of The Making Of from The Female Lead. Our guest this week is the journalist and author Yomi Adegoke. We love Yomi's work and were so excited to interview her and capture her infectious energy, honesty and humour. As always, she chose six key life moments that have made her who she is today. The list she came up with is a great story which starts with her deciding not to care about looks at the age of 15 and comes full circle to giving up on hair - listen and you'll see what we mean! We also touched on the big subjects of race, class, and mental health, but somehow there's a lot of laughs too. The episode was recorded during lockdown, over zoom, so please bear with us as some bits may sound a little wobbly. Yomi Adegoke is a multi-award-winning journalist, who writes for The Independent, The Guardian and Vogue among others. In 2018 she was listed as one of most influential people in London by the Evening Standard after the publication of her first book, written with co-author Elizabeth Uviebinene, Slay in Your Lane: The Black Girl Bible. This phenomenal book was based on interviews with 39 successful black British women spanning different industries and gives advice and inspiration to young black women. The Slay in Your Lane brand has become a huge phenomenon with a podcast, journal, events and this year, another branded book. In October 2020 Yomi and Elizabeth launched another Slay in Your Lane title: Loud Black Girls - an important and timely anthology of black British writing, featuring essays from the diverse voices of 20 established and emerging black British writers. The Making Of is hosted by Bea Appleby and is edited by Lauren Lind. The production is brought to you by The Female Lead and the whole series is very kindly sponsored by Missoma
