The Lioness Episode
For this special episode we are joined by Namibian artist and Doctor - Lioness. In the chat with Dan and Phil we talk about her career, tackling language barriers across Africa, the struggles of breaking out as a Namibian artist and how they echo the same struggles Zimbabwean artists have, her new EP, and more.
This was originally supposed to be a brief interview that would be part of our Thursday podcast, but Lioness was such an amazing guest we felt it should be it's own stand-alone interview.

Go on ahead and invite us into your house please, the 2 Broke Twimbos are back again with something new new. Dan & Phil take a sombre moment to address some of the tragedies that seem to be coming thick and fast these days, like the Air India flight crash or the floods in the Eastern Cape in South Africa. But the show does go on, the pair review the BET Awards and share some real talk about Madam Boss's presence there. They also talk Timbaland starting A-Pop (look it up) and AI when it comes to creative content in general. TLDR: We're cooked. Oh, and Sinners, and Mountainhead and loads of stuff, enjoy!
