It's Related, I Promise

Last season you really loved our #FunguaRoho session, so we decided bring it back and open up about what’s been going on in our lives. New love, New homes and New careers are just among the many topics we’ll touch on. As you know, these sessions get very emotional, so join in on the fun and give us an update on what's been going on with you fr fr. Here are the various resources we mention on this...

Reality shows are now a dime a dozen, but back in 2010 (12 years ago) it was a still nascent industry. This week , Kwambox shares her experience on Big Brother Africa which catapulted her into stardom across the continent. But behind the glitz and glam she opens up about her struggle with anxiety brought on by the fame. We also share our experiences being in the limelight and the pressure that bri...

This week we go round the table sharing our first time in various precarious situations. Categories include "First Public Scandal", "First Time Having Sex", "First Million (Kenya) Shillings" and many more. We invited superstar MC and Radio Presenter Kwambox to join in on the fun.  Can you relate to any of the stories? We'd love to hear your 'first time stories' in any of the scenarios we disc...

After a two year (unplanned) hiatus we're finally back and we're so excited to resume podcasting! To kick off season two, we invited seasoned media personality Janet Mbugua, to join us as we unpack our toxic traits. Why did we choose this topic? For absolutely no reason, but... it's related, i promise! Loool. This session was nothing short of CATHARTIC! We had deeply missed sharing our experiences...

Noni recently came across an interesting tweet with a lady asking “Why are men so secure? What’s the secret? Like, do y’all ever need reassurance?” So we invited our Ghanian hommie Bright Gameli, who also dabbles as a Cyber Security expert; and posed the question to him. We’re hoping to do more of these #AskTheMen topics, so feel free to share any questions you’d like to pose to our future male gu...

If you were raised by African parents and you are over the age of 25, then brace yourself for incessant pressure to get married! Whether the pressure comes from your parents, from society, from your partner or even YOURSELF, you can’t catch a break in these streets! If you are ripe and un-plucked, like the three of us; “Kaa Ngumu Tu”, your time will come :) Hosted by Julia Gaitho, Noni Muchiri &am...

This week we tried something different, we totally 'FREESTYLED'  the session!!  We decided to speak off-script, off-the-cuff, and candidly speak about anything and everything. The ensuing result;  Julia opens up about speaking to a medium, Noni shares a personal dilemma she’s facing with her sister and Sharon gets real about job insecurity. Show Notes; Here are the links Julia menti...

One of our lovely listeners sent us a voice note that preempted this conversation; Do we call out our friends? It's definitely not an easy thing to do, but we have to #Normalise calling out our friends. What are your thoughts on this? Ever called your friend out? Ever been the friend who's been called out? Let us know! Remember if you'd like to pre-empt/set the scene for our next episode, you can...

I’ll start by saying, this was a really cute session; listen to the end and you’ll understand why. Also, we're already 10 EPISODES IN? Wow, Thank You all so much for the incredible support.  Today we're talking about Body Insecurities, something we all battle with, however all that matters ultimately is feeling confident in your own skin. We open up about our insecurities, we also share our ‘...

Let's talk about Ex-Etiquette! How should you engage with your 'former' significant other? It's a slippery slope! One minute they are calling you asking for closure, next minute you're entangled in the sheets. The most contentious of it all; is whether you should delete their pictures from social media! Which way do you sway? All this and much more in today's episode. Hosted by Julia Gaitho, Mutho...

Yeah, we know... People change. But what we're talking about today is people SWITCHING UP! It's the shitty kind of change. The one that creeps up on you and has you feeling hoodwinked...When the 'Good-Guy mask' wears off, When the ghosting begins, When you become that friend who gets talked about in our new segment #AFriendOfMine(whattheysaaay)...  Have y'all experienced this? WILD.  Hos...

In 2020, Privacy is an illusion. Everybody's business is everybody's business...and when you're a media personality your business is LITERALLY someone's BUSINESS. But are we taking this too far? Social Media has turned us all into nosy, prying-ass humans, but maybe its time we channeled our platforms towards more positive outcomes; like when we got Art Cafe to finally #PayCreatives or when someone...

One of the most confusing questions of our time; Should you pursue your Passion or Paycheck? Or maybe both? We get into 'unconventional career paths', finding your passion and a loose rant about some of the negative perceptions of 'Creatives'. Karibuni!  Hosted by Muthoni Muchiri, Julia Gaitho & Sharon Machira.

Excuse me, I'm asking for a friend...WHY ARE WE DATING THE SAME PEOPLE?  " Six degrees of separation" is the idea that all people are six , or fewer, social connections away from each other. In Nairobi, (and other African capitals) you'll be lucky to find even a SINGULAR degree of separation between you and your Ex's last fling. This week we let you know more about our beloved community of "S...

ENTANGLEMENT- A word that has found new meaning in 2020! After Jada Pinkett Smith dropped the bomb on the world that she was in an ‘entanglement’ with August Alsina, we knew we had to jump on this topic. We talk about monogamy, open relationships, and Julz introduces us to “Polyamory’ relationships.  We also ask; Would you be in an open relationship? So send in your listener notes! iRIP is hosted...

In this episode, we talk about ’Situationships’, or better yet ‘Friends With Benefits’. Listen,  Nairobi is a micro-community and whether you like it or not, if you are single then you’re probably in one! It can be a messy situation, especially if lines get blurred or hearts get broken… but as we say in the +254, WE MOVE REGARDLESS! We also share our Bad B**ch Anthems; So let us know yours on our...

This week we vulnerably share our initial reaction to this pandemic (still feels weird typing that), and how we settled into living in these 'unprecedented times'. Someone should cancel that phrase ... it's been RINSED! But let's use it for now.  Share your listener-notes and let us know how you've been doing. How you've REALLY been doing!  iRIP is hosted by Julia Gaitho, Muthoni Muchiri...

In this debut episode, we open up about how we met; The good, the bad, and the ugly. Friendships are full of ups and downs, and as you get to know us you'll hear all about how overcame men-drama, creative differences, and having to work together professionally. It's been a great ride so far and we're looking forward to having you (our lovely listeners) join us on this journey.  iRIP is hosted by J...
