In this thought-provoking episode of Beyond the Norms, we dive deep into the growing influence of social media on the Nigerian youth experience — from the way young people think, dream, and define success, to how they view life, relationships, and identity in today’s hyper-digital age.

Together, we explore tough but timely questions:

• Has social media become the new measure of success for Nigerian youths?

• Are we losing ourselves to the pursuit of likes, clout, and validation?

• How can young Nigerians reclaim balance and use social media as a tool for growth, not pressure?

From “spare the rod” to silent homes, this episode dives deep into the Nigerian family experience — exploring how childhood upbringing, discipline, religion, and emotional culture shape who we become as adults.

We unpack tough questions:

When does discipline become damage?

Can traditional parenting work with Gen Z values?

How do divorce and single parenting affect children psychologically?

And most importantly, how can we heal and redefine family in modern Nigeria?

Join us as we explore the fine line between training and trauma, and what it means for the future of our society.

The “Japa” wave has become one of the biggest conversations among young Nigerians today. From Lagos to London, everyone is asking the same question: Should I leave Nigeria in search of a better life abroad, or stay and build at home?

In this episode of Beyond the Norms, we dive deep into the Japa culture — exploring why thousands of young Nigerians are relocating overseas, the harsh realities of starting from scratch in a foreign country, and the emotional cost of leaving loved ones behind.

We also talk about the courage of those choosing to stay, the frustrations of trying to make it here, and what “a better future” really means in today’s Nigeria.

Featuring honest stories, tough questions, and unfiltered perspectives, this conversation captures the true struggle of a generation torn between hope and escape.

🎧 Tune in to hear real voices, real choices, and the truth behind the Japa dilemma — a must-listen for every Nigerian youth thinking about life abroad.

• Is religion turning into a business, with pastors owning private jets and churches competing like corporations?

• What about tithing — obligation, choice, or exploitation?

Join us as we separate faith from facts and uncover the fiction behind religious practices that influence Nigerian society.

If you’re curious about the history of Christianity in Nigeria, the role of tithing, or the business side of religion, this conversation will spark thought and debate.
