From the dawn of time, or at least since the dawn of the calendar, Monday has been known as the most dreaded day of the week.
This is why it’s perfect for what a Joke.
It’s a comedy podcast true to its name where I, your host, Bayo Oduwole, make you laugh, teach you stuff like weird history and crazy politics while making you laugh, get your blood pumping, fix up your life, force you to think about important things, and call you out on your bs, all while still making you laugh.
It's a pretty big promise, now listen to me deliver it all in under 20 minutes.

What A Joke
Know Your History Pt.2

History. Boring, right?
Well that's the history you're used to, but on What a Joke, we KNOW our history... or do we?

On the sequel to our uncritically unacclaimed game show episode 'Know Your History', we have two new guests playing to win absolutely nothing!

It's absolutely hilarious.

Bonus: Crowd Work Special

Miss me?
(Is that even a question?)

This might come as a shock to some of you, but no, the podcast is still running, and while this isn't the start of the new season. It's somewhere around the corner.

Earlier this year, we celebrated the 4th year of the show going live with a live listening party in Lagos, Nigeria. If you weren't there, here's a teeny weeny sample of the awesomeness you missed!

(PS: Catch me at Ouida's open mic night this thursday if you're on the Lagos mainland!)

The Igbotalian Conspiracy
This might sound like a conspiracy theory but… walk with me. From as far back as Pope Gregory the 13th, son of Ugo, the Igbos and the Italians have been intertwined. Some might say it’s just the Roman catholic influence in eastern Nigeria, but I’ve been able to prove it goes much deeper than that. There are Igbotalians among us… and it’s so cool! So yeah, listen to me ramble about this concept I came up with, with evidence!

The Willy Wonka Saga
It was supposed to be a simple outing filled with children's laughter and joy based on a beloved story, but it quickly became a nightmare. The memes and hilarity took the world by storm. During the world news episode, I mentioned wanting to revisit this topic, so here it is; The Willy Wonka Experience. What happens when one man's greed becomes everyone's problem? What happens when a comedy podcaster decides he wants to figure out what happens when one man's greed becomes everyone's problem?
