Òrò wo ló wà lénu alaso pípọn?

Email: bidemiologunde@gmail.com In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde [https://www.linkedin.com/in/bidemiologunde/] explores five Yoruba proverbs about limitation, empathy, responsible speech, credibility, and reputation. What happens when a small weakness disrupts a powerful system? Who suffers quietly while others continue as though nothing has happened? How should elders, leaders, parents, and professionals speak when their words carry public weight? Through historical reflections and modern anecdotes, Bidemi connects fish bones, grazing foals, drunken speech, thieves' families, and dirty clothes to today's workplaces, families, online spaces, and public life. This episode invites listeners to examine their limits, their concern for others, and the character behind their words.
