Fresh from our discussion on access, this week Primah hosts the pod and has us talking.... "Shortcuts". Everyone one loves a good short cut home or life hack to get something faster in this world obsessed with speed and efficiency...

However there's a contradiction at play, we also shame people for taking the easy way out - avoiding a tough conversation, leaning on a relationship or network of relationships to land a job or opportunity.

Today we try to unpack how we make this judgments and ask ourselves if there's anything wrong with taking the easy way out... Or if sometimes, the long difficult way is the point of the taking the trip.

Let us know your thoughts, leave a comment, and kindly also tell us where you are watching us from. We'd like to give our global audience a shout out

Hey folks... Question.. How do your multiple identities—like gender, tribe, or ability—shape your access to healthcare and education?

In today's episode, the guys dive into intersectionality—the concept that our overlapping identities define our lived experiences.

Hosts Pumla, Primah, Joel, and Allan discuss how recognizing this in Uganda's context is crucial for building equitable policies in SRHR and other essential services from education, to employment and even social acceptance.

We ask: How have your own identities affected your access to services?

This episode is Sponsored by The SRHR Alliance Uganda, a consortium ensuring vulnerable young people can access friendly SRHR services and claim their rights freely, without violence.

In the 1st of a series of conversations around mental health , we examine the Biopsychosocial approach to well being, Alternative Therapies for treating mental anguish, as well as ask whether psychology is more of an art than a science.

The guest for this show is Dr Innocent Acan ( @I_I_Acan on Twitter), a medical doctor and psychology student who also happens to be a really great writer.

We're grateful for her time and sorry not sorry for all the bad jokes we are both going to drop on these conversations.

Karl Marx called religion the soul in soulless conditions. It's our expressiom of the almighty... And that expression matters as it either liberates all or causes us to look to the world to come instead of the world we're in The disembodied voice of Allan hosts two old friends who were once church boys, Reverend Captain Gideon and some guy called Joel, to a special debate that has a prodigal and a pastor asking each other what it means to be Christian today Does belief actually make us fail to do what God wants which is to love people and this world and bring justice? Why do we pray about what we ought to be acting on? Does believing in God as symbolic and not literal give anyone true hope? You know.... Light work. 😊 We aren't aiming to fully answer these questions but to rather raise them so you can engage with them We want to hear your answers and questions too. #christianity #Whatthetheory #hegel #Theology
