LagosMeetsLondon Podcast 🎙️
A studio talk show exploring the cultural connections and contrasts between Lagos and London for the Nigerian diaspora.
A conversational studio show where two British-Nigerian hosts, OJ and Hakka Da Host, dissect pop culture, interview notable Nigerian creatives, and debate humorous hypotheticals. The podcast offers a candid look at the identity and shared experiences of the Nigerian diaspora, moving between lighthearted banter about football and relationships to serious discussions on cultural preservation and current events.
“The podcast's unique feature is its blend of casual, often hilarious, 'what-if' scenarios with insightful interviews and serious cultural commentary, all centered on the specific Lagos-London cultural axis. The hosts' chemistry and ability to pivot from laughing about hypothetical dilemmas to discussing the nuances of a BAFTA-winning film sets it apart.”
