THE AFAKASI SCOOP
Don't know about you but for us three working Mummas by the end of the week (sometimes not even mid-week) we just need to WINE-DOWN …. oh I mean WIND-DOWN! What better than combining both? We pour ourselves a glass of wine or three and talanoa, vent, discuss, and deliberate about current haps both personal and public.
Here is our Samoan/Euro flavoured podcast recipe ….
Ingredients: Friends, Wine, Issues, Open mind
Recipe: Mix all ingredients together with no script, no measurements, and no limits
Result: Your guess is as good as mine but we always tend to feel better at the end of it.

The Down Side of Culture
Hosts: Ria, Tee, and Cyn
Don't get us wrong, we LOVE our Samoan heritage and culture but we know there is a downside. Today Tee and Ria are joined by Juliet to discuss the difficulties she faces being a NZ-born Samoan in a relationship with her Romeo who was born in Samoa and still has strong family ties there. The struggle is real and we know she ain't the only one going through this.

Cam Bernard AKA The Real BDFS (@thereal_bdfs) is a comedy content creator and was brave enough to join Afakasi Scoop in the studio for this episode!

Wait WHAT?!

We are BACK in the Studio after the 2nd Lockdown!!! We were a lil all over the place in this first episode back where we started off critiquing some video clips, reflect on our age and how much we are closer we are coming to death and then finish up talking about varying relationships with God. We've missed getting together and are super happy to be back, hope you enjoy!
