Not Culture

Godfreeman Kaptigau

First of all; It's not about culture. Welcome to Not Culture! The podcast about life in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea. Hosted by myself, Godfreeman Kaptigau, I aim to talk about what I've been up to in Port Moresby, my obsession with Pop Culture, and how they affect each other. We occasionally bring on guests to flesh out some dimension on a subject or issue, and generally like to tell the world that there's a lot more going on in PNG than the culture. Join us fortnightly and listen to what we've been up to, and the issues we've been facing with life in PNG.
