    The "Words of Affirmation in Ikoyi" Episode

    This week, it’s just the ladies, and they kick things off with a quick recap of their week, then share an important reminder for everyone to sort out their PVCs. Between consumer exploitation, misuse of power and the current cost of living, it’s clear we need change, and this is the first step. They also talk about business owners and people in prominent spaces being more conscious of their public messaging, the impact of their words, and being fair to workers, especially when it comes to benefits. The dilemmas were delivered as always, with some cases where we really couldn’t support these women’s wrongs. They wrap up with a cute game where they answer a lot of questions, from their warning labels and dealbreakers to why people need Yelp reviews. It’s fun, hilarious and amazing as always. Enjoy this special episode brought to you by Busha! Nigerians, we have a really important election next year.

    The "Jolly, Free and Less Busy" Episode

    This week, we have a special birthday episode for our president, Big Dawg Jollz! The ladies kick things off with a recap of their eventful weekend before getting into the Megan and Klay situation, and honestly, our girl deserved so much better. The dilemmas were delivered as always, with sweet birthday messages for Jola and plenty of interesting entries. This week, they get into feeling like a wife in an insecure relationship, the jealousy that can come with a sibling’s engagement, and constantly coming second to your boyfriend’s baby mum. They also touch on the work behind changing government policies to better protect women. It’s warm, chaotic and very much a Jolly episode. Enjoy!

    The "Retired Little Menace" Episode ft JMB

    This week, FK & Jola are joined by Joel Moses Babatunde, Twitter’s favourite naughty boy, for an episode dedicated to naughty children and all the chaos they bring. From weddings, party costumes and the madness of children’s birthdays, to clowns making kids cry, “wailing as a service”, other deeply unserious career paths, and Oga HR’s childhood escapades, the conversation is ridiculous from start to finish. They also get into quick insights on Odun Longe’s unconventional HR practices, her approach to work, and practical tips for building a healthier, happier workplace culture. The dilemmas also didn’t disappoint, with many of you writing in to confess the truly wild things you did as children. We also got some sad dilemmas about the state of the country and bandits, plus a shocking one about finding out through a DNA test that your father isn’t your biological father. It promises to be a fun and interesting episode, per usual. Enjoy! Nigerians, we have a really important election next year.

    The "Unscheduled Maintenance" Episode

    After a fun weekend in Abuja for their friend's wedding, FK & Jola are back to talk about seeing your friends in love, group adventures and the pitfalls of the Nigerian aviation industry, which led them to a hot conversation on the importance of registering to vote. They then spoke about Sibongile Ndashe's work in pushing law beyond intention and into impact, and why that matters for African women, before diving into some spicy dilemmas, including friends taking advantage, closure from situationships, and promiscuous ex-boyfriends. It was an excellent episode, if we do say so ourselves! Enjoy Nigerians, we have a really important election next year.

    The "Major & Minor Icks" Episode

    After weeks of back-to-back bangers with some phenomenal guests, this week FK & Jola are alone on the couch. The episode starts with a recap of their enjoyment-filled Easter weekend (up Jesus), which leads into an interesting conversation on the importance of excellence and innovation in faith-based endeavours - from books to businesses. They then have a conversation about the very real dangers women face on the internet as a result of the lack of regulation around AI usage, especially with the proliferation of deepfakes being used for sexual harassment and slander. The dilemmas this week were a doozy! From a relationship that might have been held together by sex, to navigating friendships as you grow, cohabiting with zero boundaries and long-distance relationships that suddenly start to look appealing for the wrong reasons - there’s a lot to unpack. They round things off with a heated list of icks and as always, it’s chaotic, honest and very funny. Enjoy!

    The "Enter With Your Change" Episode ft. Christiana & Omolara

    This week’s episode takes us on a journey — no, really, we’re joined by Christina and Omolara, who are a bus driver & conductor duo in the city of Lagos. These up-and-doing ladies have done everything from fashion design and trading to selling bush meat, and are now in the transportation business. They take us through what it’s like plying Lagos roads as women, the passengers, heavy taxes and circumstances they have to deal with on a daily basis, while also being mothers and breadwinners for their families. We also discuss the horrendous situation affecting women in Ozoro currently and the worsening safety conditions women have to deal with in Nigeria.  Don't forget to use #ISWIS or #ISWISPodcast to share your thoughts while listening to the podcast!

Our faves at L’Oréal Professionnel also made this a fun episode because we have a joint giveaway coming up this week and you get to win not just products but for online shoppers, also a free salon consultation!
