    How To Tell A Joke

    Knock Knock? Who’s there? APC, and if you’re reading this pay your podcast tax! Jokes are short stories that make us laugh. They evolved from a tool in theatrical storytelling used to critique social wrongs to the one-person performances we now call Stand-up comedy. On this episode, host Temitayo Ayorinde, aka TMT of the Submarine and a Roach podcast, takes us on a deep dive into the comedy underworld. Joined by standup comedian and co-host of ‘This Week Tonight’ - Kolamide, the two laugh their way from the sound stage to the theatre stage to TV screens and finally the comedy club. Hosted on Acast.

    How To Lose A Match in 99 Goals

    Fireballs, lion heads, and voodoo, these were the special ingredients chosen to make the greatest loss in our sporting history… allegedly. Once upon a time, a football match between India and Nigeria ended in a 99 - 0 loss for the Nigerian Green Eagles. On this episode, host Deji Osikoya takes us through a play-by-play of the mythical match. Joined by third generation Indian-Nigerian Hamisha Daryani Ahuja, director and producer of acclaimed cross-cultural Netflix features, ‘Namaste Wahala’ and ‘Postcards’, the two dig into how colonialism, commerce, and cinema have shaped our national friendship.    Hosted on Acast.

    Are You Checking Out?

    Roses are red, our passports are green, ‘Japa’ is migration to a country you’ve never been. Loosely translated from Yoruba, japa means to run away, and it’s what many Nigerians living in the country today aspire to do in the midst of rising inflation, insecurity, and unemployment. On this episode, host Abimisola of the Japa Diaries Podcast, surfs the waves and their ripple effects on our identities. On board with her are Nigerian-American, Mrs. Tayo Iyiola and Black British returnee Chef Wunmi Durosinmi-Etti. Follow the trio as they sail back and forth across the Atlantic, visiting former presidents, Nollywood icons, and the most elusive Nigerian of them all - the ‘I Just Got Backs’. Hosted on Acast.

    When Will You Marry?

    Do you, dear listener, take your host Boj to be your lawfully wedded guide through Nigerian Monogamy until death do you part?

But the Nigerian weddings we love today all come in the same shade of Western White. Joined by soon-to-be newlyweds Loye & Ore, the three waltz down memory aisle to uncover how customary ceremonies of the past made way for the monogamous marriages of the present. Hosted on Acast.

    Do You Believe in Juju?

    A crisp 500 naira note on the floor could either mean free money or a new life as a goat. On this episode, host Olamide challenges our superstitions to a face-off with facts. Juju is the colloquial catch-all for the occult but also a synonym for indigenous spirituality. Joined by writer and author of the Afrireligions blog Martha Laraba Sambe, the two crawl through our criminal underbelly, traverse colonial canyons, and climb the fiery mountains of the Pentecost to demystify juju’s reputation as an African villain origin story. Listen as they re-tell our lore without the gaze of the wild wild West. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    How Nollywood Changed Nigerian Film

    When VHS tapes filled with low budget flicks flooded the streets of Lagos, Aba and Kano in the early 90’s, they would birth Nollywood - Nigeria’s very own film industry. This episode’s flashback stars Boj, our guide through Nollywood’s theatrical past to its globally acclaimed present. Joined by Anita Eboigbe, co-founder of Inside Nollywood, a newsletter that goes behind the scenes of Nigerian film, the two reminisce on the movies that made the industry. The show will be going on an end of year break. On behalf of the whole Culture Custodian team, here's wishing you all happy holidays. Catch you in the New Year. Hosted on Acast.

    When Ghana Met Nigeria

    From friends to enemies and finally to lovers, the story of Nigeria and Ghana’s rivalry is part classic rom-com and part Western showdown. On this episode Mayowa Idowu travels back in time with Culture Custodian writer Damilola Oyeleke and her uncle Justus Oyeleke to Ghana in 1969, days after over 2 million African migrants were forced out of the country. Years later, Mr Oyeleke watched how Ghanaian migration into Nigeria was followed by a mass expulsion that we would dub ‘Ghana must go’. Follow the trio as they trace how this love-hate story has spanned soccer showdowns, battle of the bands, and Jollof wars.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
