What A Joke ·

2023/12/04

Last time on the What a Joke special, The Abbreviation Game, we had two amazing teams go head to head, and in a surprising twist (surprised me too), the underdogs pulled an upset and came from behind to lead 2-1.

The Abbreviation Game 1

What A Joke ·

2023/11/27

I grew up watching game shows like Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, and The Weakest Link. I even dreamed of being a contestant one day. Who would've thought that I'd one day end up hosting my own web-televised game show. Ladies and gentlemen, brace yourselves for the first of it's kind. I give you... The abbreviation game. What?

Left Hands Matter

What A Joke ·

2023/11/20

Subject? The Left Hand Crime? Unknown For many generations and across many cultures, the Left hand and by default, Left handers, have been seen as sinister and unnatural aberrations that walk among the right. But they aren't that at all. In this episode, I dig up the origins of left hand bias, reaching as far back as over a millennia ago, and I discuss the often overlooked or generally unknown negatives of converting a left hander the other way. If you hate the left hand, I hope that by the end

My ELCA Story

What A Joke ·

2023/11/14

I came, I saw, but did I conquer? I went to EbonyLife Creative Academy with two missions. To network and to work on a film project of mine. The first is easy to accomplish thanks to my disposition. However, thinking the latter would even happen showed just how much Main Character syndrome I actually have. Life isn't like the movies, and things don't always go the way we want... but sometimes, they do, and in the most epic ways. Watch The Last Sane Man in Lagos -

The Pythagoras Theory

What A Joke ·

2023/11/06

Almost by default, whenever most of us hear the name Pythagoras, we think about right angled triangles and his theorem. Pythagoras is indeed known as the father of Mathematics, but he was so much more. He was a pioneer, a musician, a mentor, a cult leader, a traveler, an ambassador, an animal lover, and a respecter of beans. There's so much crazy stuff you didn't know about Pythagoras, and once you listen to this episode, it'll have you going 'Pythagoras? What a joke."

Franchise

What A Joke ·

2023/10/16

Franchising is, in fact, a very boring topic. At least that's what my friend who works in franchising told me, but I said nah, this actually seems pretty fun. And no, it's not the right to vote or be voted for. McDonald's, alien overlords, shampoo, franchisors, franchisees, franchises, and french fries. What do all these have in common?

The Lady

What A Joke ·

2023/10/02

How often do you think about the Roman Empire? Happy Nigerian independence! As far as Nigerian history goes, the name Flora Shaw is synonymous with mostly one thing, naming the country. And to take it a step further, she was the wife of the first governor general as well. On last week's episode, we looked at the interesting, albeit partly unfortunate life of her Lord, Lugard. Conquering nations because you got your heart broken? What a joke. This week we look at little miss independent
