#027 - Free Speech for All, or Just the Powerful?

Freedom of Speech: Unfettered Right or Social Responsibility?

Is free speech an absolute right, allowing anyone to say anything, or does it require limitations for a fair and just society?

Join us as we delve into:

  • The tension between free speech and other essential rights like privacy and equality.
  • The evolving landscape of free speech in the context of social media and online discourse.
  • Whether restrictions, such as hate speech laws, are necessary to maintain a civil society.

Through engaging discussions with experts, diverse perspectives, and real-world cases, we'll unpack the complexities of free speech and encourage critical thinking about its future.

So get ready, grab a drink (whatever you prefer), and join us for a conversation that we desperately need to have. It's time to stop bottling it up and start talking, because being vulnerable is the new strength.

#022 - Intermittent Fasting & Its Benefits

When it comes to losing weight, dieting is by far the most popular strategy. Intermittent fasting is becoming increasingly popular, but what exactly is it? Intermittent fasting is more of an eating pattern/cycle than a diet. Intermittent fasting advises you WHEN to eat rather than WHAT to eat. You only eat at certain times of the day and fast the rest of the time.
In this week's episode, we are joined by Margaret Gatwiri, a nutrition therapist, who discusses Intermittent fasting, the benefits, how best to go about it, the science behind it and finally the dangers it may have to people with certain conditions.
Karibu, and we hope you'll enjoy

#019 - How To Invest: Essential Advice To Help You Start Investing And Grow Your Money

There are plenty of reasons you should save your hard-earned money. For one, it’s usually your safest bet, and it’s the best way to avoid losing any cash along the way. It’s also easy to do, and you can access the funds quickly when you need them. Despite its perks, saving does have some drawbacks, including:

  • Returns are low, meaning you could earn more by investing (but there’s no guarantee you will.)
  • Because returns are low, you may lose purchasing power over time, as inflation eats away at your money.

In this episode, we are joined by Faith Kwamboka, a portfolio manager in one of the largest asset management companies in Kenya and Billy Ouko an Audit associate in one of the big four accounting firms in Kenya. Join us as they take you through the basics of investing and growing your money to help you build a sound financial foundation for yourself and your loved ones.

#018 - Finding Meaning

“Don't aim at success—the more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue.”  psychiatrist Viktor Frankl

This week's episode was a spillover from last week's episode, we explore If you really want to find meaning, do you embrace activities that connect you with something greater such as connecting yourself with the pursuit of knowledge by working toward a college degree, committing yourself to the care of others through volunteer work, dedicating yourself to the expression of love through raising a family, or any number of other endeavours or should meaning preceded you taking up said endeavours?

#016 - Toxic Relationships
A healthy relationship involves mutual care, respect and compassion, an interest in our partner’s welfare and growth, and the ability to share control and decision-making, in short, a shared desire for each other’s happiness. A healthy relationship is a safe relationship, where we can be ourselves without fear, a place where we feel comfortable and secure. A toxic relationship, on the other hand, is an unsafe place. It is characterized by insecurity, self-centeredness, dominance and control. We risk our mental health and well being by staying in such a relationship. To say that a toxic relationship is dysfunctional is, to be honest, an understatement. In this weeks episode, we try to dissect the anatomy of a toxic relationship. Hope you enjoy it.

#015 - Is Uhuru really wrong?

following the #IMFStopLoaningKenya #StopGivingKenyaLoans #IMFloan and other such trends on social media, it is clear to see that a lot of Kenyans are unhappy with the way government finances are being spent. Looking for a scapegoat, many Kenyans chose to air out their frustration on his excellency, Jayden himself, and accuse him of being a bad president.
In this week's episode, we try to determine if Jayden is truly the evil mastermind Kenyans make him out to be or he's just a victim of circumstance and if the Kenyan economic apocalypse we keep fearing is real or vastly exaggerated.

#010 - Is My WhatApp Secure.

After WhatsApp announced the update of its policies to share with Facebook, millions of users migrated to other messaging apps. The two favourites have been Telegram and Signal, apparently for offering greater privacy. With some of the rumours going around, we wanted to have a discussion about some of the common questions we have received.

#009 - Cancel Culture

Cancel culture (or call-out culture) is a modern form of ostracism in which someone is thrust out of social or professional circles - either online on social media, in the real world, or both. Those who are subject to this ostracism are said to be "cancelled."

In this episode, we discuss how it's adversely affecting our abilities to have civil discussions and getting to the bottom of things.
