Submarine and A Roach

Welcome to another chaotic chapter of Submarine and A Roach, Nigeria’s funniest podcast and Nigeria’s #1 comedy podcast, hosted by Tmt and Koj—your favorite agents of unserious national commentary. This week’s episode kicks off with a Mother’s Day tribute to none other than the Mother of the Nation, Remi Tinubu. The boys officially crown her Remy Ma, and obviously, this leads straight to a breakdown of the music video for Fat Joe’s “Lean Back.” Koj argues that Remy Ma had insane privilege because let’s be real—Ciara wouldn’t have survived that scene. From there, the conversation shifts to Remi Tinubu’s recent visit to a nursing school, the cheeky reception she got from the students, and the queries that followed. Koj shares a similar memory from high school, where students clapped a guest off the stage—giving Tmt the idea for his next hit TV series: “The Clap,” because, as he reminds us, “Na from clap dance dey start.” And somehow—because this is Submarine and A Roach—this spirals into a conversation about wacking off. (Don't ask. Just listen.) Tmt calls Koj a piece of shit (as is tradition), then tells a story about his girlfriend being mistaken for a Marlian. Tmt also poses a true philosophical banger: “What clapped first—hands or cheeks?” A debate only ChatGPT can settle. The episode swerves again into a conversation about Canada’s insane water reserves, the potential for U.S. annexation, and eventually lands on Nigeria’s tribal complexity. Packed with hot takes, deep cuts, historical spirals, and unfiltered banter, this episode is everything you’ve come to love from Submarine and A Roach.

Episode 228: "Lagos 2 Crazy" In this episode of Submarine and A Roach, Nigeria's funniest podcast and Nigeria's #1 comedy podcast, hosts Tmt and Koj are joined by the exceptionally talented Ua.x—a singer, songwriter, performer, dancer, producer, director, filmmaker, and one of Nigeria's top location scouts. The episode kicks off with a discussion on mental health, framed as a transactional process where individuals accumulate "mental health points" on good days to utilize during challenging times. Koj presents his "Premise of the Week," asserting that religion is inherently transactional and expressing fatigue over the pretense that it isn't. This leads to a conversation about how many perceive God's existence through answered prayers or explicit denials, noting that the silence accompanying unanswered prayers can challenge one's faith. Koj humorously mentions wishing he had witnessed King Belshazzar's feast, where a divine hand appeared, as such an event would have solidified his faith unequivocally. The discussion naturally transitions to the scorching Lagos heat, humorously likened to hell. Tmt shares an anecdote about narrowly avoiding an accident, only to realize he had swerved to miss a Rolls Royce, prompting immediate regret. The hosts then delve into a captivating conversation with the recently married Ua.x, who recently released a video for his single "Lagos2Crazy." Ua.x recounts how the song came to him during a serene walk in Abuja amidst the pandemic, contrasting with Lagos's typical chaos. He also directed Burna Boy's latest music video for "Update," leading to a discussion about his journey in the Nigerian music industry. Koj and Ua.x reminisce about their university days, recalling their early music collaborations. Koj fondly remembers providing Ua.x with a pirated version of Final Cut Pro just before Ua.x ventured into video production—a journey that has now led him to direct a video for Koj's personal G.O.A.T. Ua.x candidly discusses his directorial journey, acknowledging the on-the-job learning curve and the humble beginnings of his initial productions. Musically, he credits Styl-Plus for inspiring his desire to create music and P-Square's "Game Over" album for fueling his passion for dynamic performances. Tmt shares his experience attending a St. Patrick's Day celebration in Lagos, sparking a conversation about the similarities between the Nigerian, Irish, and Ivorian flags. This leads to a humorous debate about alcohol preferences, with Koj revealing his aversion to BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) liquors in favor of white liquors, prompting Tmt to quip, "He don't want no D.E.I. in his D.U.I." The trio explores what differentiates those who achieve significant success from equally talented peers, referencing Anthony Mackie's recent discussion about the pivotal role of being "hand-selected" in an artist's breakthrough. Koj reflects on the humbling experience of his best joke falling flat for the first time, and Ua.x concludes the episode by listing famous music videos he has directed for renowned artists.

This week on Submarine and A Roach, Nigeria’s funniest and #1 comedy podcast, Mayowa, Tmt, and Koj dive deep into friendship, self-awareness, and the art of not being a fool in "Parents Can Try Their Best and the Cake Can Still Taste Like Semo." The guys break down a hard truth—the key to being the ultimate friend is “getting over cringe.” But in between all that wisdom, they also get into discipline, making time for things (and people) that matter, and why prioritizing friendships is a skill, not just a feeling. Tmt and Mayowa share hilarious stories about (not) making time in romantic relationships, leading to Tmt boldly comparing himself to cocaine—because of course he does. This naturally spirals into one of the greatest "Last to Marry is a Fool" jokes ever delivered—possibly in the history of mankind. The conversation shifts to performative people, performative friendships, and the reality that personal branding is just knowing yourself. But knowing yourself isn’t just a social climbing move—it’s also how you figure out what you value in friendships, how you want to show up for others, and how you want to be shown up for. And if that all sounds too deep, don’t worry—there’s also an important lesson for men everywhere: you should only cry between 11 PM and 1 AM when everyone else is asleep. Oh, and Koj almost gets scammed three times in one week. Because balance. As always, it’s unfiltered, hilarious, and packed with life lessons you didn’t know you needed.
