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.

New episode! Dan & Phil return with a fresh episode of a podcast that did not get a visa to discuss World Cup stuff, but will anyway. There's some stuff to catch up on, the technical stuff you've come to expect from these erudite savants, like Miss Universe and Love Island. But also South Africa vs Mexico, and a deep dive into the SpaceX IPO and the state of AI and tech. Fun times. Enjoy!
