We’re back, guys. Officially!

A brand new season of So Nigerian is here, and we’re so happy to be back in full swing! It’s been a minute, and trust us, we’re coming with all the gist, all the hot takes, and the conversations that actually matter.

For our comeback episode, we’re diving deep into something a lot of us have faced (or are currently facing - toxic relationships and knowing when to leave. From ignoring red flags to losing yourself in the name of love, we’re unpacking why it’s so hard to walk away, and what healing actually looks like after you finally do.

If you’ve ever found yourself asking, “Is it me, or is this just not healthy anymore?” — this episode is for you.

Plug in, laugh, reflect, maybe text your therapist. We’re back and we’re going deep this season!

Wish Dami Aros a Happy Birthday guys 

Hey guys! This week, we are joined by the freshly retired Isaac from Road to 30 Podcast, and by “retired,” we mean he just wrapped up his 20s! And also, as many of you may know, our sister-podcast has also come to an end, and we couldn’t think of a better way to honour that journey than to bring Isaac on for one final chat.

We talk about navigating your 20s - the chaos, the clarity, the confusion, and the healing. From identity shifts to career drama, pressure, friendships, family, adulting and mental health, this episode is packed with laughs, lessons, and a little nostalgia.

Whether you’re deep in your 20s or watching them approach like a storm, this conversation will feel like a warm hug and a gentle nudge.

Make sure you listen, share with your people, and send love to the Road to 30 fam one more time.

Hey guys! On today’s episode, we get into something a little bit controversial, but necessary - religion to today’s Nigerian youth. 

We compare our religious practice between childhood and now, if religion has helped us as a society, inter-religious relationships, and many other “holy” stuff. 

If you’ve ever struggled to balance your belief system with your reality, this episode is definitely for you. So plug in, reflect, laugh, and don’t forget to share with your pastor, friends, families and enemies!

Hey guys! On today’s episode, we have just one question for you. Should you take back a cheating partner? 

We talk about everything from “it was just a mistake” to “once a cheat, always a cheat” and whether love, marriage, or years of history should make forgiveness easier (or harder). Is emotional cheating worse than physical cheating? Can trust ever be rebuilt? And most importantly - are you a clown or a lover for giving them another chance? 

If you’ve ever been in this position, judged someone who stayed, or are currently debating texting them back… this one’s for you.

Are we overworking because we have to or because we’re addicted to the grind? Can you really rest when the bills keep flying in? And why do we sometimes feel guilty for resting?

Our guys! On today’s episode, we’re breaking down the wild world of Nigerian stereotypes. From the classic “Yoruba demons” to the “Igbo fraudster” slander, and the idea that every Calabar girl knows how to cook and steal your man!

We talk about the tribal, gender, and class-based stereotypes we’ve heard (and maybe even believed), how they’ve shaped our friendships, dating lives, and job opportunities, and ask the ourselves important questions on the topic.

We also share our hot takes, personal gist, and a few hard truths. Don’t forget to share with that friend who thinks “all Northerners are uneducated” and let’s break the cycle together!

So Nigerians!! On today’s episode, we’re talking about micro-cheating. Yeah, that sneaky little sibling of full-blown cheating. Is liking someone’s thirst trap at 1AM just being friendly, or are you emotionally unavailable and unserious?

We’re unpacking the blurry lines: hidden DMs, “work wife/husbands,” and all those situationships that live rent-free in your notifications. Is it harmless fun or lowkey betrayal? We share our thoughts as usual.

So grab your eba, text your partner(s) to listen too, and let’s get into it. Don’t forget to like, share, subscribe, and avoid flirting in the comments… or don’t. See you next week!

Hello guys! On today’s episode, we really didn’t talk about anything specific. Nigeria happened to us in many ways, so the energy to come up with a topic was low, so we really just yapped about everything that’s been happening. We also talked about the Nigerian habit of adjusting or like we say “we move”-ing when there are problems. It’s resilience, but sometimes we need to fight the mediocrity. Anyways, that’s all for now. See you guys next week, with a banger topic!

Hey guys! On today’s episode, we’re getting real about male friendships, or the lack of them. Why is it so hard for men to open up to each other? Is everyone just vibing on surface level while struggling in silence?

We talk about the unspoken loneliness many men carry, why checking in feels awkward, and how the whole “men don’t cry” thing is still messing things up. Whether you’ve got a solid brotherhood or you’re realizing you’ve been going through life solo, this convo is for you.

Listen, share, and send this to the bros who need to hear it. See you next week!

Hey guys! On today’s episode, we’re diving into the pressure to “be somebody” online. From hustle culture to curated soft life aesthetics, we unpack how social media can make you feel like you’re not doing enough, even when you’re actually trying your best.

We talk about the highs and lows of scrolling through everyone’s wins, the temptation to fake it for the algorithm, and the silent competition no one admits to. If you’ve ever felt behind in life because of your feed, this one’s for you.

As always, listen, share, and subscribe, and remember, not everything you see online is real. Catch you next week!

Hello guys! Today, we’re diving into a serious but much-needed conversation - cyberbullying. From trolling and dragging to full-blown online harassment, we’re breaking down how cyberbullying happens, why people do it, and how it affects mental health, careers, and even businesses.

We also talk about the Nigerian social media space, are we just “savage,” or have we normalized bullying in the name of banter? Where do we draw the line between criticism and harassment? And most importantly, how do we protect ourselves from online attacks?

So Nigerians! On today’s episode, we discuss something that’s not often talked about but super important—Sexual Purity vs. Celibacy. Are they the same thing? Is celibacy just about not having sex, and does sexual purity go deeper than that? We break it all down, from personal choices to religious beliefs, societal expectations, and the real struggles of maintaining either as a Nigerian youth.

We also share personal takes, myths we’ve heard growing up, and whether these choices still make sense in today’s world. So if you’ve ever been confused or curious about what it really means to be celibate or sexually pure, this one’s for you!
