I Said What I Said Midas Radio

This week we have musician, Made Kuti, son of Femi Kuti, grandson of Fela Kuti and great grandson of Funmilayo Ransome Kuti! We chop it up about legacy, growing up a Kuti and his love of music (he plays about 5 instruments and is a classically trained composer). It was a really fun conversation! Make sure you stream and download Made’s new single “Free your mind” available on apple, Spotify, YouTube and everywhere else music can be found!

This week we have the super talented Justin Irabor in the studio to talk about all (well most) of the jobs he has had since he started working at the age of 13. We then move to the topic of black tax, and what it’s like to be a provider in the family as well. We discuss what that does to relationships with siblings, parents, romantic relationships and how he sees money. To find out more about Justin and all the amazing work he is doing, follow him on Twitter @thevunderkind. 

Last week Tuesday, the unimaginable happened. While peaceful protesters sat on the ground at Lekki toll gate, waving Nigerian flags and singing the national anthem, military men opened fire on them, killing and hurting a number of people. What followed were 2 days of widespread mayhem in Lagos with looting and attacks on private and public businesses in the city. It was a terrifying and unbelievably sad time. Since then there has been a lot of misinformation and confusion, and many many many questions. We don’t have all the answers, and actually have more questions, but we dey for you. We discuss our heartbreak over what happened at the Lekki toll gate, present more questions and what we think happens next. Stay strong everyone! We move still. 

#EndSars

Hello guys! New week new episode as usual. Before we talk about this episode it’s important that we mentioned that the protest to #EndSARS is still going on all around Nigeria and we want to encourage and implore people to stay peaceful while protesting. We must put an end to police brutality in Nigeria.



This weeks episode features the amazing Tolani Baj; a contest of the just concluded big brother Naija lockdown season. We talk about her childhood, being Nigerian American, her time in the Big Brother house and her future plans. Tolani is a complete vibe and we hope you enjoy the podcast!

Over the last few days, there have been a series of protests, against the extrajudicial brutality of the Nigerian police, particularly  the “Special Anti Robbery Squad”, a brutal and blood thirsty unit who have used their state sanctioned powers to kidnap, abuse, sexually assault, rob and harass Nigerians for many years with no consequences. No more 

In this special episode we speak to Falz, a rapper (and lawyer) who has a passion for social justice issues. 

It was a pretty emotional episode but as usual we let these jokes fly. You will notice that FK is not as prominent in the episode and that’s because while we were recording she was lobbying for the release of wrongly arrested protestors, raising and sending money and medical supplies to protesters across the country , a true queen . 

Please make sure you play a part in supporting. From social media amplification, to donating, to physically protesting. This is a once in a generation opportunity to do the right thing. Do the right thing

New week, new episode!

We’re sure every single person listening has gotten at least one fraudulent email or has had attempted fraudulent activity happen with their emails or bank accounts. Today, we have partnered with monisense to talk all about financial fraud. Every year, just over 5.2 TRILLION  dollars are lost to fraud globally. Many individual lives and businesses are ruined and take many years, if ever, to recuperate. This episode hopes to help all our listeners “jazz up” and know what pitfalls to avoid in order to avoid as much as possible, being a victim.

We have two guests; Idong who had her business accounts wiped out by fraudsters, and Jasper, a “former” fraudster. As Idong tells us her study, Jasper explains what’s happening on the fraudsters end, and answers a number of other questions around his choice of occupation. It is a pretty informative episode. 



Make sure you rate, share and leave a comment wherever you listen to the podcast telling us how much you enjoyed the episode! Better ratings mean even more people find out about the podcast!
