Its Like This Everywhere

Society EN ↓ 31 episodes

We are here to discuss human experiences from around the world. My life in Kenya is the genesis, and we’ve grown to be able to share the stories of others as well. Expect an intimate experience, because as much as I am here for you, this is a stand for myself. We are here to discuss whether or not the phrase “it’s like this everywhere is a statement or a question. What makes us different from each other and what makes us the same, and why is it even important to ask? The good news is, that, even if you’re not here to answer those questions, you will be part of some amazing experiences

Ep.5 Culture Shock, Confidence and Cooking Abilities 21.04.2023 24:01

Culture shock. An obvious experience for anyone going to a new place, especially if they are going to live there. It's hard to describe how it feels in your body. Its almost a mellow anxiety for me. I knew that Kenya was going to be my new home but for a while it did not feel like that, especially after my sister left. It felt like every day was waking up at a friends house after a sleep over...

The Appropriation V. Appreciation Debate 07.04.2023 16:09

I suggest you grab yourself a paper and pencil because at the end I even map out what I hope is a helpful Venn diagram. We are back in my...

We are past the introductions, past the pleasantries and into the meat of what this podcast and growing community is all about. this episode is the first to contain the content warning built into the script so you know its going to be spicy! The discussion starts with pregnancy, abortion and contraceptives and shifts over to how implicit bias can impact your world and decisions you make. so listen...

Origin Story Part 2 04.03.2023 17:11

We are out of Zambia and settling down in Kenya with my big sister! the title of this episode was almost "Puke Covered Chaos" but I did not want it to seem like this podcast was going to be all about drinking. There will be plenty more drunken episodes, but that won't be too much of a running theme here. Although, isn't that adulthood anyways? a lot of drinking, a lot of chaos...

Origin Story Part 1 17.02.2023 19:02

Having to look back over 10 years ago makes you realize how much details exist in even just one day! This episode is the first glance at where and how it all began. We go all the way back to my touch down in Zambia and a general overview of that experience. there are plenty of details and questions left to be answered in the future, because if I answered them now it would have become an audio boo...
