After three years of friendship and an endless amount of hours spent on video calls cross continents, we decided to archive our conversations. The notion of starting a podcast, for the longest while, has been too narcissistic for us to look into. However, we wanted to keep our messy, unstyled, provoked and heartfelt talks in one place, track our lives unapologetically which almost always leads to us being mistakenly apologetic.

Join us, as we discover our lives as two young women living one in *Milan (Italy)* and the other in *Makeni (Sierra Leone)* trying to become two full functional adults in the age of a crazy pandemic, economic recession, insane elections and environmental crisis. That’s not all of it, but listen and you will find out for yourself. At the end this is just a loose podcast. Very looose!

    #5 Asked Away, attempt one

    Welcome to our first attempt at opening our conversions to more people than just the two of us. In this episode we try to answer some of the questions we have gathered in these past weeks from people we know and have been listening to us. While recording seemed an impossibile task because of the lack of collaboration from Sierra Leone in terms of internet connectivity and eletctricity, we still managed to have this out. 
    Hoping you will enjoy this episode as much as we did trying out the new energy which we tried to bring to our dialogues, press play and listen to our episode before a power cut wrapped up the conversation for us.

    #4 Beauty Bites

    #4 Beauty Bites

    Let's be realistic, the more episodes we air the more difficult it is to be interesting and witty in our descriptions. So bear with us and allow yourself to go with the flow, as it usually happens to us during our conversations.
    In today's episode we humbly try to wrap our heads around beauty, or whatever thought pops into our mind which hopefully doesn't sound too obvious or banal.
    So, what do you think beauty is and what does it mean to you? And most importantly, is it really so important to talk about it in the first place? It at least seemed important enough to dedicate 30 minutes of our weekly talk. Welcome to Beauty Bites!

    #3 Old dogs New tricks

    #3 Old dogs New tricks

    To the animal lovers out there, we are sorry to tell you that this episode is about anything but dogs. The question is simple, the answer is probably not; it took us about 30 minutes of talking, simply because we knew we couldn't keep you on hold for three hour conversations. 
    Moving from Harari’s 21 lessons for the 21st century to Esther Perel’s blog posts, Shaza asks if it is possible "to teach an old dog a new trick".

    #2 I love Boundaries

    #2 I love Boundaries

    There is nothing much to write, but for sure quite a lot to listen and the title may be a small clue. In a moment in time where our sense of space and distance has been shifted quite a bit (for some more, for others less), following the wave of our curiosity we decided to ask ourself what boundaries mean to us, leading to a quite interesting mental breakthrough for Teresa (even if breakdown might be more accurate).
    Quite possibly the most awaited episode from Shaza so far (which considering the number of episodes on air is not really a big surprise) welcome back to our second episode!
    See you next Friday

    #1 So Random

    #1 So Random

    If you like random topics of conversation and you’re anything like us, this is the episode for you. At this point, It's hard to say if this episode has more to do with an actual podcast or a personal journal, making this the most random yet creative conversation.
    Listen to Teresa’s divine pronunciation of the word “Karaoke” amongst complaints of maternity plans, nostalgic recollections of unexpected bachelorette parties, deaf dogs and more. This episode simply shows our excitement to finally be able to have a conversation and start recording again! Welcome back to our second/first (it depends if consider a Pilot as an episode) episode.

    #0 Welcome to Mistakenly Apologetic

    Who hasn't started a Podcast during this pandemic? Maybe only the Pope, and yet it could be easily fake news. So here are two friends, one Italian the other Egyptian, one in Milan the other in Makeni, explaining why they decided to share their ideas with those who are kind enough to give them a listen. 
    The road was not smooth, despite a not-so-internet-friendly Africa and an insane amount of hours spent on learning how to edit audios, we finally managed to upload our very shy, quirky but deeply honest episode.
    In these wierd times, this Pilot dives deep into the ideas behind being "mistakenly apologetic" questioning our peculiar personality traits, our ideas about knowledge projection and the remote possibility of ending up in the French Riviera if we stop giving our opinion in a world where sharing them has become the default option - even if sometimes it might be better to kindly shut up.
    Hoping this is going to be as entertaining and fun as it was for us to create it, thanks in advance for the trust - press play now and in the meantime, see you in our next episode!
