Hello. I am back with another episode. At this point you will probably say that I am inconsistent - I really am. I hope that changes. Anyway, here is an episode with me in Dubai in January - that is months ago. I am so grateful for all the friendships I have in Dubai but more importantly the ones that feature on this episode from rappers, to podcasters, to accountants to Akkaoui. Guest List: Tac.plg O.T. and Omer Taha P Storm. Lots of audio from Dubai so there will be a part 2 next week.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hello! We are doing things a bit differently for awhile. Whilst I dig interviewing people that are known I do miss interviewing random people. So I have taken the podcast TO THE STREETS.

On today's episode we have: A guy from prison A chef guy The most amazing voice from a singer called Uya A rapper A pyramid schemer A somatology person. Cheers and enjoy!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Gilli Apter [Free]

Gilli was the first person I interviewed when I arrived back in South Africa. She is also such a vibe to be around. She is now off touring and doing stand up comedy - something she is so dedicated to. She is also a long time crush. I chat to her about the comedy scene in Dubai and my recent adventures and let me tell you - I am so good at embellishing a story.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
