This week’s episode takes us on a journey — no, really, we’re joined by Christina and Omolara, who are a bus driver & conductor duo in the city of Lagos. These up-and-doing ladies have done everything from fashion design and trading to selling bush meat, and are now in the transportation business. They take us through what it’s like plying Lagos roads as women, the passengers, heavy taxes and circumstances they have to deal with on a daily basis, while also being mothers and breadwinners for their families. We also discuss the horrendous situation affecting women in Ozoro currently and the worsening safety conditions women have to deal with in Nigeria. Don't forget to use #ISWIS or #ISWISPodcast to share your thoughts while listening to the podcast!

This week’s episode is what the kids like to call a “deep cut”. It’s 3 hours with the one and only Mimi Abudu (yes, the same Abudu you know). We dive into the conversation of being whimsical just for the plot, gems on building real confidence and trust in yourself/your gut. She also talks about knowing when it’s time to pivot, what to avoid when making big life changes, and how to be a successful rebel as you create the life you truly want. We also get into some deeply unserious and quite serious dilemmas about a financially cursed husband and an infidelity-cursed husband — there’s a pattern, it seems.

This week, we’re joined by Dami a.k.a Celebrity Waitress & Eunice a.k.a Demure Waitress, who are nightlife/club waitresses in Nigeria! They take us behind the scenes of what it’s like to work at a popular Lagos club, and everything you didn’t expect while working a 9-5 (we mean 9pm to 5am). From getting huge tips in foreign currency to getting slapped by club-goers 😭. We got the inside scoop on working in the service industry and people’s perceptions of women working in Nightlife, especially in Lagos. We also helped out with some deeply unserious dilemmas concerning morning or nighttime sex (pick your fighter), feeling irritated that your partner got scammed out of 3 million and feeling left out of a friendship even though you communicate consistently.

This week’s episode is what we like to call a meandering banger. We can’t explain how we started the conversation from the idolization of religious leaders and ended up at sexual grief (you’ll get it when you listen). We also talked about our thoughts from the last episode and some of your opinions on our lovely co-wives. Most importantly, we spoke about what we’d do if we won the lottery, because who doesn’t love a bit of delusion? We’re also pleased to say we had not 1 or 2, but 3 unsafe spaces in this episode (it’s back, baby!), and you just have to listen to find out what they are.

Welcome to the inaugural episode of The Real Co-wives of Lagos City! Our first guests of the season are co-wives, married to the same husband and living in the same household. What happens when your husband brings you a (pregnant) co-wife? We get into what it’s really like in a polygamous household and how it even began in the first place. We also learn how our co-wives manage tensions, children, sharing one man, and their personal relationship dynamics. We start off the episode with some really juicy dilemmas about marriage, but only under the conditions of relocation, dating as a plus-size woman and deciding to get married (or not) if you’re really broke.

You know what rhymes with 2026? ISWIS! We’re back with a bang for season 8! In the first episode of the year, we discuss whether New Year's resolutions are in or out, and somehow we end up complaining about the Nigerian experience (as usual). We talk about our super fun holidays and the need to add more whimsy and enjoyment in life — maybe that’s our actual New Year's resolution. We also discuss the need to reduce pleasantries or niceties and actually chat with people to find out how they’re really doing. And of course, the 2026 dilemmas are really juicy! When will you guys actually change? We get into dating siblings, using someone to secure a visa, feeling jealous towards someone else’s success and the possibility of your parent cheating on their spouse! We’re really looking forward to doing 2026 with you, and we have so much planned, so enjoy! Don't forget to use #ISWIS or #ISWISPodcast to share your thoughts while listening to the podcast!

Ladies & Gents, welcome to our last episode of season 7. We’ve had such a fantastic run with you all yet again, and this season ends on a high note. We discussed all the fun activities we’re getting up to this month, and how our year has truly felt from January to December. This led us to reflect on the areas we want to improve in 2026, including supporting our friends with their children. We talked about becoming better support groups for parents, getting married SOON so we can receive free transfer (wife privileges), and some really juicy dilemmas about loving someone even though they’re cheating and your partner hating your weight gain (crazy). But we’re so thankful to all of you and all the brands who worked with us this year. See you in a bigger and badder place come 2026. We love you! We also wanted to let guys know we’ll be going to see J Hus at Music City Central, and you should get your tickets right hurrr! https://url-shortener.me/2MDOThe Big Bounce Bash (December 21st) tickets are still up for sale at https://tix.africa/bounce-bash-25 Don't forget to use #ISWIS or #ISWISPodcast to share your thoughts while listening to the podcast on X!

What time is it? Christmas time, so it’s our vacation! Just kidding, we might have one or two more fun releases for you guys before the end of the year. It’s just us in the studio this week, and we talk about our December plans (we can’t wait to leave Lagos, of course)… It’s also an intense & thought-provoking episode in which we discuss the erosion of real community, friendship, and communal life. We also discuss how impossible it is to solve our societal (and national) issues because of government irresponsibility, rather than individual apathy. We wrap up the episode with some truly interesting (derogatory) dilemmas: thinking your partner is razz & uncultured, and having a friend who secretly hates you.

This week, we are joined by a fabulous guest, Tai of Foodie in Lagos, who’s an equally hilarious babe. We talk about the rite of passage of pranking your siblings, how dealing with grief never gets easier, and how kids are never taught traditions and the reasons behind them, but are expected to obey them completely. We also get into how Tai started a successful food blog through her BlackBerry Messenger status, which has now grown into a community of 60,000+ people! There’s also some really juicy dilemmas about teenage pregnancy, transitioning from friends to lovers and how to handle leeches in the form of friends who keep taking advantage of you. Our friends at Coca-Cola also have the juiciest offers to win N250 million in prizes if you buy a 50cl Coke, Scan the QR code & Share!

We’re joined by a very unassuming guest, someone you wouldn’t know is a very big amebo but that’s exactly how we like it. We have Ugo from our key helpers, Bamboo!!! We talk about our favorite shows and the battle of the streaming sites (we all know Apple TV wins). We also recap the sweetness that was the Abuja Live show, and we want to thank you again for all the love and gifts!! If you missed it, ntor 🤭. This episode is sponsored by situationships round the world, you really keep everyone on their feet. We also get into changing friendship dynamics when one person makes more money than the other and what to do when your friend slutshames your mother (you read that right). Enjoy!! Also, don’t forget to get your tickets to the Lagos live show and party on Friday, before they’re sold out! Don't forget to use #ISWIS or #ISWISPodcast to share your thoughts while listening to the podcast on X!

We hope your 'undies' weren't in a bunch as a result of our absence last week because what was missing last week has been made up for this week. After a glimpse into FK's new high-level hobby to set things off, the ladies of ISWIS explore, travel and the importance of preserving Nigerian culture. Joined by Dimma Umeh as she graces us for her 4th feature on the pod, (Yes, it's her 4th time) this episode is a history exchange class coupled with top tier comedy and an analysis of a unique marital dilemma to help out the head of a home - amongst other things. If the word “moist” irks your soul or you've been faced with an unrequited love declaration situation, then this 3-hour episode will absolutely thrill you.Enjoy the musings of the three friends who are reunited in an absolutely hilarious episode.Join FK & Jola on their Samsung journey and discover the brand-new range of Samsung Foldables.

This week, Jola & FK are alone on the couch as they discuss the state of the nation (are you ready for a Trump-led invasion?), Lagos Fashion Week, and whatever is in the air making many people ill. They then provide excellent, bad advice to a number of you struggling with everything from gluttonous talking stages to bigoted parents. We hope this episode makes you think deeply & laugh even more.

This week’s episode is sponsored by God’s grace. Jola & FK are joined by Blessing Omakwu, the CEO of The She Tank, a gender-equality evangelist, and a really knowledgeable theologian. The girls get into the dicey topic of balancing one’s faith and feminism; if these concepts are entirely antithetical to one another, OR if religious text is actually more feminist than we believe. They shed light on our favourite Bible stories and on how much nuance is required in the pursuit of Christ. They also tackle some really dicey dilemmas about a couple who co-own a thriving business. Still, one half always takes all the credit, and the dynamics of growing up in a home with separated parents. We hope this episode makes you think deeply & laugh even more.

The girls are very demure this week as they’re joined by Bimpe of On The Rocks With B! Bimpe talks about being an entrepreneur who runs no1, not 2 but 3 (almost 4) businesses. She also talks about building a business in a male-dominated field, how she became an entrepreneur at 20 & why she hasn’t stopped since university. Then they get into their thoughts on facial dysmorphia, being boxed as an extremely ambitious woman and working towards your dreams rather than just thinking or complaining about them. There’s something for everyone in this episode because they also talk about what to do when you’re in a rut or are depressed and how to change your life, brick by brick.

This week’s episode is for the girls - fitting, since International Day of The Girl Child just passed by. We are joined by Malala Yousafzai, a Pakistani female education activist, who reminds us the importance of education, community, structure and balance for every girl, everywhere in the world. She gets real about the pressures and life differences in being Malala the activist vs Malala the woman. She also shares some (extremely peaceful) advice on dilemmas about a girl who built her family business from the ground-up, only to be pushed out, and another who believes her siblings hate her. It’s thoughtful, peaceful and very for the girls 🧡Join FK & Jola on their Samsung journey and enjoy the brand new range of Samsung Foldables.

This week, we have the one and only Big Fish, Adekunle Gold, on the pod. We discuss the new album, how he secured some OGs, such as Yinka Ayefele, to work on the project alongside him, and also the true inspiration behind this new project. Adekunle takes us through his thought process and unique approach from album to album, which we think makes him a true artiste versus some of your favourites. AG also offers singles some dating advice (as a married man with necessary relationship certifications) and some business advice as well. We talk about our personal favourite songs on the album, and he also drops some Easter eggs in the episode about upcoming performance dates and news to expect regarding the album, so you'd better tune in.

This week, FK & Jola are back in the studio after a whirlwind of a weekend. Jola FINALLY receives her long-lost luggage from KLM & FK has an 8-hour sleep cycle she calls a “short nap”. The girls discuss the importance of reconnecting with friends, especially given the busy nature of life, the challenges of planning group trips, and the value of critique/feedback in relationships. Because if your friends can’t tell you you’re crazy, who can? They also offer some very-needed advice to a girl who wants to ruin her cheating ex-boyfriend’s life, a 22-year-old who has cold feet about her upcoming wedding, and how healing from abuse can look different for every person. They end with a potent reminder that you can still make your year something you are proud of, only if you start doing the little (and big) things right NOW!

You know what they say, four heads are better than one, so it makes sense that we have two Cannes-certified heads in the house! Wale & Funmbi, the writer and producers of My Father’s Shadow, join us for such a well-rounded episode. We discuss what to do if you’re a dark-hearted cheat, how to get over the idea of “the one that got away”, father-son dynamics in Nigerian society and how tumultuous parental relationships can be, which led us to their highly anticipated film, written to portray the father-son connection set against a 1993 military-ruled Nigeria.

This week, we’re joined by the one & only Candice Brathwaite! She was THE perfect guest and agony aunt for your all your dilemmas. We talked about why you shouldn’t chase social media fame, what true “authenticity” looks like online, the pressure on young people to hustle constantly rather than rest, and parenting in this new age of hyper-visibility. We also get into the tough subject of abortions, death and infidelity from partners.

The best words to describe this episode? A robust train of thought. We start off talking about the effect of AI on human interaction and end up at BBLs. How? You have to listen. We also delve into another age-gap relationship dilemma and the pitfalls of financial imbalance (as Reminisce would say) in a two-person household. The lovers are also never left out; we tackle dilemmas about a girl who hates her boyfriend, and some delusional angels who are SURE that their crushes like them, even if said crushes have never said it out loud.

The Bounce is synonymous with Baddies, so of course, we have the most amazing beauty and fashion content creator, Uche Natori, in the studio with us this week. We have had a blast discussing influencer brand trips, navigating content creation across various platforms, and comparing beauty content from the past to the present. We also get into how much the beauty industry profits off women’s insecurities and the deep issues with comparing your life to others’. And of course, we tackle some entertaining dilemmas about breaking your values for relationships and what typically happens in wide age-gap relationships.

This week, we’re joined by THE fabulous SimiMoonlight as she takes us through what it’s really like being a notable fashion and lifestyle content creator in a world with increasing parasocial relationships & fewer boundaries as you become more visible on the internet. An episode without our silliness doesn’t exist, so obviously we talked about the big lady age that is 30+ and all it comes with, and the comedic relief that is Nollywood. We also tackle some fascinating dilemmas around twin-sibling relationships, broken trust in a very new marriage and what it’s like to dislike your in-laws. Of course, we’re still reeling from the high of our New York show & we’d like to say a huge thanks to you guys for coming out. See you next yearrrDon't forget to use #ISWIS or #ISWISPodcast to share your thoughts while listening to the podcast on X! Rate the show 5 stars on whatever app you listen to and leave a review.
