technically freedom? 26.01.2026

In this episode of Technically Free? , we crack open the idea of freedom and flip it on its head. Maybe freedom isn’t just about making choices… maybe it’s about realizing what your choices even are before you make them. This isn’t a lecture and I’m definitely not here to download information into your beautiful brain like some human USB stick. Think of this episode as me tossing a thought grenade...

The Underdog Fight 04.06.2025

That one rant about entrepreneurship 28.05.2025

We are back babyyyy!!!! This isn’t one of those “5 tips to build your dream startup” kind of chats. It’s the unfiltered, off-the-cuff, can-we-just-be-honest-for-a-sec type of vibe.

50% Truth 50% What I Want 26.07.2023

Information will always be one of the greatest tools that people can use to get what they want. By being able to manipulate the truth, people often take advantage of people. As young people, it is important to learn to identify what's true and what's false and to also understand that the way we do everything needs to change. In this episode, I give a few thoughts on what I will call the 50...

It is really up to us.....or not! 17.09.2022

How many times have you heard that ' It is up to the younger generation......' I think for the most part every generation is just pushing the responsibility of changing our continent to the next generation. In as much as the young people in any era are or should be instrumental in changing the continent, by continuing to push down the ultimate responsibility will do no good.  In this episode,...

Propaganda to Properganda 26.01.2022

This episode was inspired in part by King Kandoro's YouTube show called Properganda with Kandoro . Propaganda is a thorn in our leadership structures in Africa (and even across the world). Propaganda destroys lives, businesses, and relationships because fundamentally, these are lies. This episode, in part, is a call to action to young people to be a fresh set of leaders with a hunger for differenc...

If you want to be corrupt, listen to this first. 21.08.2021

This episode was inspired by the shocking levels of corruption within our African States. The greatest tragedy of Africa is having a few individuals up the ladder comfortable with plundering resources meant for everyone and thus leaving more than half the population in extreme levels of poverty. As the young people we need to realign our thoughts and uproot the individualistic mindset that so long...

Leadership is not Africa's biggest problem. The problem is deeper than that. The good news is, it's gonna take good leadership to steer Africa towards greener pastures. The leadership is not necessarily at the highest level but it begins with personal leadership and holding yourself responsible and accountable for your actions and above serving other people.
