EP 57 - Sixty, Single & Still Living Life To The Max (Sola Akin-Olugbade)

Are we really as only as old as we feel? Is 'age' just a state of mind? Should age determine zest for life? Should we limit our partners' ages to close to ours or love who loves us and see age as just a number? Does society place harsh expectations on the 'mature woman' and why should we comply? The questions are non-exhaustive..... My guest Sola Akin-Olugbade is a mature woman who lives life on her own terms!! In the episode, nothing was off limits and I am not sure I have laughed so much with a guest!! Listen, comment, share, laugh and enjoy!!!!!!

EP 56 - 042 Restaurant & Bar, London (Uche Nnadi)

Many of us immigrants have moments when we miss home and yearn for a reminder of 'the good old days'. 042 Restaurant & Bar in Leytonstone, London (we just call it '042') reminds me of growing up in Enugu, Nigeria at a time when life was sweet, there were no worries about kidnappings or ritualists and love and enjoyment filled the air. Uche Nnadi is the co-owner of 042 and in this fun episode filled with loads of laughs, he tells about how '042' was birthed, the challenges along the way and how it remains home away from home for many of us!!!! If you are in London and have not been to 042, you should!!!! Let us support each other!! #Nigerianowned#blackowned
