Cancel Culture vs. Growth: Do We Allow Creatives to Change? | Ep 17

Does the internet allow for growth? This week, we tackle the heavy weight of Cancel Culture. From Noah Schnapp’s recent headlines to Simi’s past tweets, we’re breaking down whether the public is punishing people for what they don’t know, rather than what they’ve done. We’re asking the ultimate question: When is a creator truly beyond redemption? Join the conversation.

Why Content Creation Might NOT Be For You - Ep 16

Is content creation really the "dream job" everyone says it is? In Episode 16, Emem and Fikayo sit down for a reality check on the creator economy. We’re breaking down the hard truths: the inconsistent income, the "waiting game" to go viral, and why it might not be the right fit for your personality or goals. If you're feeling the pressure to be a "creator" but hate the grind, this one is for you.

Good Service vs. Creative Exploitation: Where's the Line? - EP 15

Is your "extra mile" actually self-sabotage? In Episode 15, Fikayo and I kick things off with a quick vent about why April Fools' Day feels like it’s lost its spark in 2026. But once the air is cleared, we dive straight into a heated debate: Do creatives overdeliver because they genuinely care, or because they don’t believe their work is enough? From the pressure of Nigerian bargaining culture to the "freebie" trap that ruins your brand value, we’re breaking down why "just one more edit" may cost you more than just time.

Is Creative Licensing A Myth In Nigeria? - EP 14

In this episode of Three Is A Crowd, Emem and Fikayo tackle a topic that every creative in Nigeria has experienced at some point, creative licensing and idea theft. But before getting into the serious conversation, the episode kicks off with some light banter about the chaotic reality of Lagos traffic. Emem shares her complicated relationship with it, how she absolutely hates being stuck in traffic but somehow also finds it weirdly comforting and part of the Lagos experience. From there, the conversation dives into a bigger issue in the Nigerian creative space: Is creative licensing even real in Nigeria, or is it just a myth?

Creative Block Is A Lie… We’re Just Scared To Post - EP 13

This week on Three Is A Crowd, Emem and Fikayo talk about something almost every creative experiences but rarely admits: the fear of posting your work. Is creative block actually real, or are we just afraid of criticism? From social media pile-ons to the way one bad comment can start a wave of negativity online, we unpack why so many creatives hesitate to share their ideas with the world. We also discuss internet culture, public “crash outs,” and why people react the way they do when the internet turns against them. Plus, we start the episode with our thoughts on the newest Bridgerton episodes. If you’ve ever delayed posting because you’re worried about what people will say, this conversation will feel very familiar.
