MORE THAN WHAT YOU'RE WEARING - THE MODESTY CONVERSATION

Welcome to this seasons finale of Someone Had to Say It! with Olaoluwa and Temitope Oladokun.In this episode, we’re unpacking a topic that’s been quietly controversial in Christian circles for years: modesty. Is it just about how we dress—or is there more to it?Join us as we dive deep into the modesty conversation, asking the uncomfortable but necessary questions, like:What really comes to mind when we hear “modesty”—and where did those ideas originate?Has modesty been reduced to fashion policing instead of cultivating a posture of the heart?Where’s the line between confidence and showing off in a Christian context?When does personal expression (fashion, makeup, aesthetics) cross into vanity or distraction?Are men held to the same modesty standards, or is this a gendered expectation?How can we teach modesty in a way that’s both biblically grounded and compassionately framed?This episode is for anyone who’s ever wrestled with the tension between personal style and spiritual values. Whether you’ve been judged, done the judging, or are simply trying to understand how modesty fits into today’s faith walk—we’re talking about it.Because maybe modesty isn’t just about what’s on your body… but what’s going on in your heart.🎧 LISTEN ON:Youtube: https://youtu.be/ewpZSH80UdAApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...📲 FOLLOW US FOR MORE:Instagram: @someonehadtosayit.podTikTok: @someonehadtosayit.podLet us know in the comments:What shaped your view of modesty growing up?

TOO PICKY IN DATING? HOW TO BALANCE STANDARDS AND LOVE

Welcome back to Someone Had to Say It! with Olaoluwa and Temitope Oladokun. In this episode, we’re tackling a hot topic in modern relationships: Is there such a thing as being too picky in dating?

Join us as we dive into the nuances of dating standards, exploring when pickiness is a strength and when it might hold you back from meaningful connection. We unpack:

  • What does "picky" really mean? Is having high standards a bad thing, or a sign of self-respect?

  • Healthy standards vs. unrealistic expectations: Where’s the line between knowing your worth and chasing a delusion disguised as a preference?

  • Fear in modern dating: Are people more afraid of settling for the wrong partner or facing loneliness?

  • The “ick” factor: Have you ever passed on a great person over a minor flaw or unmet expectation?

  • Choosing well for marriage: What does it mean to make a wise, intentional choice for a lifelong partner?

This episode is for anyone navigating the dating world, wrestling with their standards, or seeking clarity on how to choose a partner with purpose. We explore how fear, faith, and modern dating culture shape our decisions, offering practical and spiritual insights for building lasting connections.

Because dating isn’t just about finding “the one”, it’s about choosing well.

ENTERTAINMENT & CHRISTIANITY: HOW FAR IS TOO FAR?

Welcome back to Someone Had to Say It! with Olaoluwa and Temitope Oladokun. In today’s eye-opening episode, we explore a topic that’s sparked countless debates in church groups, social media threads, and Christian circles—Entertainment and Christianity: How far is too far?


From Netflix shows to secular music, fashion trends to comedy skits—how do believers draw the line between freedom and compromise? Can you be a committed Christian and still enjoy pop culture? Are some forms of entertainment harmless fun, or are they quietly shaping our values?


We dive deep into the heart of these questions—discussing biblical wisdom, cultural influence, personal convictions, and how to navigate entertainment in a way that honors God without falling into legalism or fear.


It’s honest, it’s thought-provoking, and it’s the conversation many avoid but desperately need. Whether you’ve been wondering if your playlist needs a cleanse or you’ve just been judged for watching a Marvel movie—you’ll want to hear this.


What’s your take? Where do you personally draw the line? Let’s talk in the comments.
