Started listening to this podcast during the EndSARS protests. Thank you for keeping us Nigerians living abroad connected to the things happening back home!
This is an amazing podcast, if you have a good sense about f humor, then you’re in the right place
There were things I had experienced that I just couldn’t explain why they were/felt bad but listening to this podcast has helped me name my feelings, understand the situations, my actions-and just know that I am not alone.
There’s a lot I hadn’t learned in my 38 years that listening to 2 girls and their guests have taught me. The conversations people don’t have.
So, thank you.
ISWIS is the only podcast I listen to. I look forward to Wednesdays every week, it’s so fun and such a ‘jolly’ ride listening to them. Thank you ladies!
