Have we accidentally created a generation of women who expect disappointment? That is the question we kept coming back to in this episode. And we must say, we didn't necessarily find the answer to the question. But I'm sure you'll enjoy watching us perambulate around it. We unpack what happens when women are taught to expect the worst from men before they've even had the chance to know them. Is keeping your guard up wise, or can constantly expecting disappointment change the way you experience love, friendship, and connection? Our favorite topic (guess), CLOSURE, made a reappearance. We ask whether it really requires another person, or if sometimes we're just looking for permission to move on. And because apparently we cannot have one peaceful conversation, we then took our opinions straight to Love Island, where kisses are like handshakes, people keep making questionable decisions, and somebody is always somehow shocked by the consequences of their own actions.We hope you enjoy this episode, whether it's part of your bed-rot day, a very productive one...or a mid one.

The "Karen vs. Cloud Bob" Episode
Crushed egos, knees (and toes) is this episode's theme, because if it's really just a knee... why wouldn't Mr. Coconut head and Miss Karen Cloudbob just kneel?In this episode's dilemma, Mr. Coconut head refuses to honour something he knew mattered to his partner, and Miss Karen Cloud Bobiana refuses to understand that the line between appreciation and appropriation also includes respecting the boundaries of the people of said culture. Even KC and Sincere from Love Island, and Jonasi from The Polygamist, remind us why people with crushed egos deserve the bottom of the barrel ( unless you're eager to be disappointed, of course!)We say all that to say we kept coming back to the same idea: what happens when ego, assumptions, or public opinion become more important than understanding someone else's values?We hope you enjoy this episode, either as part of your bed-rot day, or a very productive one...or a mid one.

The "To Be or Not to Be?" Episode
This episode goes from our usual soft rants and bants to reflection. We talk about the women we’re becoming (per an unhinged dilemma), the ones we once judged, and the quiet ways life forces you to grow, so that you don't need to rely on your married friend to validate your life choices. We also chit chat about the new season of love island and other shows we've been tuned into.
Enjoy this "To Be Or Not To Be" episode, made with love, laughter, and even more questions than we started with.

The "Take it to the Grave" Episode
In this episode, we catch up on our week per usual: the heatwave, the struggle of being outside in Winnipeg, exams, sleep deprivation, and the general chaos of trying to function.
We also talk about the kind of life we think we want, the kind of life money would give us, and the versions of ourselves that only show up when we’re imagining a softer life.Then we dive into a dilemma about marriage, emotional cheating, financial imbalance, and in‑laws who are way too involved, before switching gears into the madness happening in Nigeria right now, especially the kidnappings in Oyo State and the government acting like nothing is happening.
If you’d like to send in dilemmas or reach out, email us at theitsthatdeeppodcast@gmail.com.
We're glad you're here and hope you enjoy listening.

The "Is Everybody Okay?" Episode
In this episode, we catch up on our very slow week of school, weird people, random library trips, and just trying to stay afloat. We talk about boundaries, knowing our value, and real-life experiences that made us stop and ask ourselves if everybody is truly okay. We read a dilemma about a Lagos roommate who might’ve been involved in a secret society, which, again, is everybody okay?
We also get into a long, funny chat about the MET Gala looks, the Tyla vs. Rihanna conversation, the AMVCA moments, and Drake’s new albums.

The "Trick or Cheat" Episode
In today's episode, we catch up on our slow week of migraines, birthdays, and a vampire‑themed party nobody ended up committing to. We get into deeper conversations about fear, death, and the dreams we’re sometimes scared to say out loud, before diving into the usual chaotic dilemmas, including a full pastor‑baby scandal. We also talk about the Klay Thompson and Megan Thee Stallion cheating drama.
At the end of the episode, we also share something special: Aanu's mum’s new book, Yorùbá Dídọ̀rùn, a beginner‑friendly guide to learning Yorùbá in a simple, accessible way.

The "Girl...please" Episode
Some people really know how to make their issues everybody else’s problem, and sometimes all you can do is sit back and say… girl, please. In this episode, we get into insecure energy, jealousy, mixed signals, people moving funny, and the subtle ways people tell on themselves without even realizing it. We talk about insecurity in friendships, attachment styles, projection, and what happens when people are bothered by something they refuse to admit.
If you’ve ever had to read the vibes, trust your instincts, or clock something that nobody else was saying out loud, this one is for you.
We're glad you're here, and we hope you enjoy listening.

The "How Far is Too Far?" Episode
In this episode, we talk about what happens when love doesn’t align with your standards, and why some people would rather stay and adjust their expectations than admit they’re settling.
From relationships where marriage isn’t even on the table, to changing yourself just to keep someone’s attention, we’re questioning how far is too far when it comes to love.
At what point does compromise become self-abandonment? And are you actually confused, or are you just avoiding what you already know?
We also get into the pressure to perform a version of yourself that isn’t real, and how easy it is to lose clarity when you’re more focused on being chosen than choosing for yourself- amongst so many other talking points.
We're glad you're here, and we hope you enjoy listening.

The Intro Episode
Your co-hosts, Aanu and Belle, are two friends just figuring life out, talking about everything from relationships, identity, and culture, to the small everyday things that somehow turn into deeper conversations.
In this episode, we share a bit about who we are, how we met, and how our connection naturally turned into the kind of conversations that made us realize...this could actually be a podcast.
We also get into why this podcast exists in the first place. For us, it’s about having real, rounded conversations that don’t just sit on one side of a story. We also dive into some real conversations around relationships, closure, and whether you can truly know someone.
We’re glad you’re here, and we hope you enjoy listening.
