Gender violence is no laughing matter. What it is, is a real issue that affects several people in Jamaica, particularly women. We get into the issue of gender violence and discuss what perpetuates it, why it’s so prevalent, and what we can do as a society to understand it, and hopefully, stop it.

Growing up is hard. When you’re young, making friends can be as easy as saying “Hi my name is”. When you’re older, it gets a little harder. We sat down and decided to talk about why that is, and some of our own stories with navigating adult friendship.

What do you do when an artist you like does something you disagree with?

Do you shun them? Cancel them?

Then what happens when you hear the song again and you can’t help but sing along?

Transactional relationships aren’t a new thing, but one can argue they’re more complicated than ever. It can be hard to tell what’s happening between the lines. So we thought we should talk about it in detail and darkness.

This episode was recorded live and features an interactive audience. It was something of a chaotic recording so the audio is not as clean as it typically is, but it’s just as entertaining.

Every year carnival costumes are worn by the same body type. Slimmaz. Flat belly. Mawga.

For some people, there are sexual acts that are just too taboo. We might like getting it done to us, but when it comes to returning the favour, all of a sudden we frighten. In this episode we discuss oral sex, it’s boundaries, and why it’s so difficult for people to be honest about it.

Don’t be stupid on the internet. It’s a marvelous place that lets creativity roam free, but if you say something stupid, don’t be surprised if you get some people upset, and then have to face the consequences. Instead, learn from your mistakes, and be a better person. Otherwise, you’re cancelled.
