  • The Art of Setting Goals

    The Art of Setting Goals
    Jun 6 2025

    In this episode, we break down the real art of setting a goal and actually achieving it. Beyond the general hype of ambition lies the often-overlooked grind: defining clear intent, navigating setbacks, and sticking it out when motivation fades. From the initial spark of an idea to the frustrating obstacle course in the middle, and finally to the quiet discipline required to reach the finish line, this episode offers a grounded, no-fluff take on goal-setting in real life. Whether you’re chasing a personal milestone or building something bigger than yourself, this is your blueprint for turning vision into reality.

  • After Hours 2

    After Hours 2
    Apr 14 2025
    Introducing the After Hours segment of the Perspective Podcast where Emmanuel, Josh, and occasionally some special guests, talk about everything and nothing—all with good music in the background. We’ll cover pop culture, religion, music (yes, Burna Boy and Wizkid will come up), Dave Chappelle, and maybe even some agnosticism (which is apparently my thing—don’t ask). It’s lighthearted, sometimes deep, but always fun. The After Hours Show, which is an additional show to the main podcast, is where we take the gloves off (not that we ever really wore them) and talk about things we’d probably only say after two cups of coffee or one bottle of something stronger. Want to hear Emmanuel passionately defend Afrobeats? Or Awamba go off on why people who put pineapple on pizza should be tried at The Hague? This is the place. This is the second episode of our after hours show. Dave joins us for a roundtable discussion on being thankful for our how far we have come and reflecting on how growth as individuals. We also talk about our mutual love for Dave Chappele, the comedy goat. The discussion then shifts to artists and songs we love at the moment, and all the other ones we are looking forward to. All of this anchored on our soundtrack for the episode - Joromi by Sir Victor Uwaifo.

    Mar 7 2025
    On this episode of the podcast. We talk about everyday ethics, we discuss how small choices often have the biggest impacts both on the broader society and we ourselves. We ask if it's fine to lie to protect someone's feelings, we also give our take on the saying everyone lies. We also take a hard look on how the Nigerian society is currently structured with barely any consequences for bad behaviour and why that fosters a continuous cycle of largely a low trust environment. Finally we talk about how we can have better outcomes in the society.
