S6E4: Un-Hinged

Dating in this digital age? Omo, God dey.
In this episode, I sit down with three of my girls to unpack the lows and straight-up madness of online dating. From hilarious first messages to ghosting that left us confused, we’re sharing how the apps changed the way we date and what we’ve learned since.
Whether you're still swiping, deleting, and redownloading every other weekend or you've retired your dating profile for good, this episode is real, relatable, and full of gems.
What to expect:
Our wildest dating app stories
What made us download that app in the first place
Lessons, red flags, and glow-ups
A spicy hot take round on why dating apps might actually be the problem 👀

S6E3: Closing Down On Open AI
2025/04/08
In this episode of Naija Girl Talks, we're diving into the wild, weird, and slightly terrifying world of Artificial Intelligence. I sat down with my friend, Jada Mercy, to talk about how AI is affecting our lives—from the way we work and date to how we think and create as Millennials and Gen Zs.
We kept it real about the good, the bad, and the “should we be worried?” moments. Is AI helping us level up, or are we slowly becoming too dependent on the machines? Either way, the group chat had thoughts.
What we get into:
How AI is changing how we live, scroll, and work
Whether AI is making us smarter—or just making us lazy
How to use AI as a tool without losing ourselves
The cultural shift in creativity, dating, and decision-making
Whether we’re actually cooked… or just adjusting to the chaos

S6E2: Monster In Law
2025/04/01
So boom—there’s a viral clip of a Nigerian mother-in-law going OFF on her Black American daughter-in-law over... a plate. Yes, a plate. And of course, we had to talk about it.
From culture clashes to respect vs. control, this convo gets real real. Are we overreacting, or is this just another episode of “Nigerian Parents Doing the Most”? Tap in and let’s get into it.

2025/03/19
