In this episode, we welcomed Temi (Gin & Gist) and Fizzy (director & producer) to the studio, and the vibes were flowing from early. From banter about Brent’s “angelic” singing and live show petitions, to family stories and creative hustles, the energy was all the way up.
We also tackled the topic of the day: identity and belonging - looking at Jamaicans of different backgrounds, “white Yardie,” and whether diasporans project their own struggles onto others. The conversation got deep about Britishness, Nigerian roots, and raising kids with culture.
