This week, FK & Jola are joined by Joel Moses Babatunde, Twitter’s favourite naughty boy, for an episode dedicated to naughty children and all the chaos they bring. From weddings, party costumes and the madness of children’s birthdays, to clowns making kids cry, “wailing as a service”, other deeply unserious career paths, and Oga HR’s childhood escapades, the conversation is ridiculous from start to finish. They also get into quick insights on Odun Longe’s unconventional HR practices, her approach to work, and practical tips for building a healthier, happier workplace culture. The dilemmas also didn’t disappoint, with many of you writing in to confess the truly wild things you did as children. We also got some sad dilemmas about the state of the country and bandits, plus a shocking one about finding out through a DNA test that your father isn’t your biological father. It promises to be a fun and interesting episode, per usual. Enjoy!Nigerians, we have a really important election next year.

After a fun weekend in Abuja for their friend's wedding, FK & Jola are back to talk about seeing your friends in love, group adventures and the pitfalls of the Nigerian aviation industry, which led them to a hot conversation on the importance of registering to vote. They then spoke about Sibongile Ndashe's work in pushing law beyond intention and into impact, and why that matters for African women, before diving into some spicy dilemmas, including friends taking advantage, closure from situationships, and promiscuous ex-boyfriends.

After weeks of back-to-back bangers with some phenomenal guests, this week FK & Jola are alone on the couch. The episode starts with a recap of their enjoyment-filled Easter weekend (up Jesus), which leads into an interesting conversation on the importance of excellence and innovation in faith-based endeavours - from books to businesses.They then have a conversation about the very real dangers women face on the internet as a result of the lack of regulation around AI usage, especially with the proliferation of deepfakes being used for sexual harassment and slander. The dilemmas this week were a doozy! From a relationship that might have been held together by sex, to navigating friendships as you grow, cohabiting with zero boundaries and long-distance relationships that suddenly start to look appealing for the wrong reasons - there’s a lot to unpack.They round things off with a heated list of icks and as always, it’s chaotic, honest and very funny.
