Dollar December
In this episode of In The Middle, we reflect on how December played out—from the events they attended and the cost versus enjoyment, to the realization that some of the best moments, like the beach, were completely free. They talk about the rush toward new vibes, the influence of trends, and what “JC dem kam tong” says about movement and momentum.
As we step into the new year, the conversation turns to resolutions, intention-setting, and how January is shaping up so far.

Let's talk about boundaries
Today we sat down for an honest conversation about boundaries. Expect laughter, personal stories, side eyes and a few uncomfortable truths. Look at how we set boundaries for other friends and with each other.
In this nostalgia-packed episode, we throw it all the way back to the golden age of childhood TV. From Disney’s polished pop-star factory, to Nickelodeon’s pure chaos and slapstick, to Cartoon Network’s unhinged creativity, to the OG classics on Boomerang — we’re breaking down the shows that shaped our humor, our imagination, and our personality disorders.
If you grew up arguing about “Drake & Josh vs. Zack & Cody,” humming Kim Possible’s ringtone, or waking up to Tom & Jerry, this episode will hit you right in the childhood.

Na so we de talk- How salone pipul dem de flirt
In this episode, we break down how Sierra Leoneans flirt, from Krio compliments that sound like insults to DMs that start with “you nor easy oh.” We talk about the difference between homegrown game and diaspora smooth talk, how culture shapes our approach to attraction, and why “small small banter” sometimes turns to full-blown situationship. 😂 Expect laughs, stories, and plenty of side-eye as we ask: are Sierra Leoneans actually romantic, or just dangerously charming?
