    83. Gen Whys trying Gen Z Style: A Gen Z–Millennial fashion intervention ft. Annet Kavata | Yesticle
    Jan 3 2026
    They said yes to curiosity. This Gen Z said yes to dressing them accordingly.For this yesticle, Akumu and Claire flip the generational script and invite a real Gen Z voice into the studio, not just to talk, but to style them, challenge them, and help them rethink what identity, fashion, and power look like today in the teenage and young adult world.Introducing the youngest guest expert, thus far, Annet Kavata. Kavata is a medical student at Aga Khan University, Founding President of Girl Up AKU, and a climate justice innovator working at the intersection of youth leadership, sustainability, and social change in Kenya.What starts as a playful Millennial-to-Gen Z makeover quickly becomes a deeper conversation about:what Gen Z fashion actually representshow young people use style as identity, armour, and expressionthe pressure of being labelled "Gen Z"generational stereotypes and power dynamicsyouth activism, climate justice, and leadership in AfricaThis isn't a generational showdown. It's a conversation, curious, slightly chaotic, and surprisingly insightful, about what we miss when we reduce whole generations to memes. It's about putting us in the same room, handing over the reins, and seeing what we learn when we stop judging each other and start paying closer attention.Expect humour, chaos, cultural commentary, and a few unexpected realisations...all styled in one very Gen Z-approved outfit.____Timestamps to Specific Segments:(0:00) Intro(02:04) Meet Kavata: Gen Z, And Make It Accomplished(04:38) What Is Gen Z Style Anyway?(06:00) The Millennial → Dress Like a Gen Z Challenge/Game(16:38) Mic Off, Cameras Off: The Gen Z Makeover Explained(20:48) What Gen Z Fashion Says About Identity & Power(22:24) Being Labelled "Gen Z": Empowering or Limiting?(23:51) Fashion & Mood; Gender & 'My Dress My Choice'(25:35) Zooming Out: Style, Age, Visibility, Sexuality & Femininity(29:11) Beyond the Outfit: Kavata's Work With Climate Action & Beyond(31:37) Final Thoughts: Saying Yes To Gen Z Fashion Or Something New(33:40) What Kavata Has Recently Said Yes To(34:53) Outro_____Important Links:The Dress Like a Gen Z Yes Challenge:https://drive.google.com/file/d/13XA-TlWVyJODfxvLrnFtrf_tt-fuP4GG/view?usp=sharingFollow Kavata:https://www.linkedin.com/in/annet-kavata-a3014b260https://www.instagram.com/missk.avata/____________________If you enjoy the podcast, we love you!

Brown, Head of Strategy at Afripods and producer of over 1,000 podcast episodes.Together, they unpack the questions people always ask: Why start a podcast? | What makes a podcast good (not just popular)? | How do you even begin? | Is video really taking over the industry? | Where is podcasting headed in Kenya and across Africa?So whether you're an aspiring podcaster or simply curious about the audio-verse, this conversation is equal parts humour, wisdom, and insanely practical insights.Key takeaways:1. Why people fall in love with podcastsAuthenticity, trust, intimacy, community... everything mainstream media struggles with.2. How to know if podcasting is for youYour purpose, your voice, and your willingness to show up consistently.3. The #1 beginner mistakeNot knowing your why. Listen to Dan and Kevin's take on the how-to of why.4. The myth of "success = big numbers"Engagement, longevity, and connection consistently outperform vanity metrics.5. Video vs. audio?Welcome to reality: video is huge. Can audio-first creators handle it?6.

    81. When science makes babies & the state makes decisions: IVF, surrogacy & ART law w/ Sandra Opiyo - Yesticle
    Nov 22 2025
    For this Yesticle, the Yes Girls take a more serious turn. No yesing, no games - just a deeply important conversation that too many women, couples, and families struggle with in silence.This mini episode explores infertility, IVF, surrogacy, egg and sperm donation, and the evolving legal frameworks around Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) in Kenya.Akumu and Claire sit down with Sandra Opiyo, founder of Nina Misaro Associates Advocates, an Advocate of the High Court of Kenya, and one of the country's most passionate voices in ART Law, to unpack the rights, risks, realities, and emotional toll of navigating fertility challenges today.Whether you're considering fertility treatment, supporting someone, or simply curious about how law and reproductive health intersect, this episode gives you clarity, grounding, and crucial information._____Timestamps to Specific Segments:(0:00) Intro(1:59) Meet Sandra Opiyo - lawyer and specialist in Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) law(2:53) Explaining the terms: What is Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART)? (+ IUI and IVF?)(5:38) Where and why must the law intervene, and what are the consequences of unregulated reproduction?(9:42) How the law is evolving around ART & reproductive rights in Kenya(11:55) Countries with forward-thinking and comprehensive legal frameworks governing reproductive health and ART(14:13) Legal protections for intended parents and surrogates(15:45) Topics gaining attention in the ART space: robot surrogacy, designer babies, reproductive autonomy, egg/embryo freezing & fertility preservation, posthumous sperm extraction, sperm donor limits and regulations (e.g., the Jonathan Jacob Meijer case - The Man With 1000 Kids)(33:25) Sandra's advice for anyone seeking ART services: what to do when you can't get pregnant & what to know before starting any ART process(35:50) The stigma surrounding fertility struggles, infertility, and reproductive autonomy in Africa(42:41) What Sandra has recently said yes to(44:09) Outro______If you've ever wondered about infertility, IVF, surrogacy, or reproductive rights in Kenya, this conversation will give you clarity you didn't even realise you were missing.Once you've listened, pass it on.Infertility is more common and emotionally complex than people think. Women deserve informed consent, protection, and support — and families deserve empathy, not pressure. Sharing this episode might help someone finally feel seen.____________________If you enjoy the podcast, we love you!

    77. We've Tekken it too far. Saying yes to fighting games, combos & esports w/ Sylvia Gathoni Wahome aka QueenArrow
    Jul 25 2025
    Here's what happens when a complete newbie with zero hand-eye coordination says yes to Tekken 8 with the help of Kenya's top esports queen. One crazy Yes challenge, some wild combos, and an eye-opening Yespisode.For this one, Claire picked up a controller and threw herself into the high-speed, high-stakes world of fighting games, with Akumu spectating and silently (okay, loudly) judging from the sidelines. It was her first time doing a combo challenge: the kind where timing, strategy, and lightning reflexes are the name of the game.And guiding her through it all was Sylvia Gathoni Wahome, better known as QueenArrow (@thequeenarrow98) - a trailblazing Kenyan Tekken pro, content creator, Kenya's first Red Bull athlete, and Forbes Africa 30 Under 30 honouree.In this episode, Sylvia breaks down what it really takes to make it in esports, shares how she balances law school with pro gaming (yes, she's doing both), and offers advice to anyone thinking of entering the gaming scene.Along the way, this conversation weaves through the evolution of gaming to the vibrant global communities you can now join right from your console. It also touches on the challenges of being a young female in a male-dominated industry that wasn't built with Africa in mind, as Sylvia points out.Make no mistake: there's more to modern gaming than just flashy graphics.Today, it comes with real discipline and real money. Whether it's through livestreaming, influencing, or climbing the ranks in esports competitions, gaming today is serious business.___Timestamps for Specific Segments:(0:00) Intro(4:19) Meet Sylvia Gathoni Wahome aka QueenArrow(6:33) The Tekken Yes Challenge Sylvia Set for Claire(7:37) What Exactly is a Combo?(9:13) Claire's Experience With Video Games(11:24) Claire's Experience Doing This Yes Challenge(18:26) Do You Need a Coach as a Pro Gamer?(21:16) Are the Yes Girls Cut Out For Pro Gaming?(23:55) Sylvia Rates Claire's Efforts(26:05) Sylvia's Journey From Hobbyist to Pro Gamer(29:15) A Day in the Life of a Pro Gamer(31:29) What's the Hardest Thing About Pro Gaming?(33:51) On Sylvia Balancing Both Law and Pro Gaming(35:12) The Challenges of Being Both African and Female in Gaming(40:43) Sylvia's Advice for Anyone Who Wants to Get Started(43:09) Key Takeaways(45:22) What Sylvia Has Recently Said Yes to(45:59) Outro___Fun fact: The biggest entertainment industry in the world isn't big screen productions, music, or even TV. It's gaming - pulling in over $200 billion a year as of 2025. That's more than film and music combined.So if you're still thinking gaming is just for teens/tweens in basements, this episode might just change your mind. Claire gave it a shot. Sylvia rated her performance. And now it's your turn to press play.Important ResourcesFollow & learn more about Sylvia:https://www.instagram.com/thequeenarrow98https://www.tiktok.com/@thequeenarrow98https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QueenArrowGaming Industry stats:https://www.mordorintelligence.com/industry-reports/global-gaming-marketTekken 8:https://en.bandainamcoent.eu/tekken/tekken-8Steam:https://store.steampowered.com/about/Video game genres:https://www.hp.com/us-en/shop/tech-takes/video-game-genres*******If you enjoy the podcast, we love you!

    76. It's a touchy topic. Sexual intelligence & sex ed for women ready to reclaim their body (and their pleasure) without shame w/ Maurice Matheka
    Jul 11 2025
    What happens when a woman in her 30s decides it's time to truly know her body, not just anatomically, but sensually, emotionally, and unapologetically? In this Yespisode, Akumu says yes to one of the most intimate challenges yet: reclaiming her body (and her pleasure) - without shame.With Claire listening in and learning alongside you, the Yes Girls dive into the world of sexual intelligence, somatic awareness, and body literacy — led by none other than Maurice Matheka, a certified sex therapist since 2002 and your go-to guru for turning awkward moans into toe-curling yes moments.Whether he's untangling relationship knots or helping couples (and singles) hit the right rhythm, Maurice is all about ditching shame and mastering the fine art of satisfaction. For him, great sex isn't just chemistry, it's communication, confidence, and knowing exactly what hits the spot (yes, THAT spot)… then asking for it, out loud._____Timestamps for Specific Segments:(0:00) Intro(4:51) Introducing Maurice Matheka and the Yes Challenge(8:09) Akumu shares her experience(10:42) Kegels during sex?! Do they work?(13:07) Are men simply semen dispensers?(14:58) Setting sexual expectations & having such conversations(17:50) The conditioning necessary for a woman to have an orgasm(20:42) Sexual pleasure vs. romance or romantic notions?!(26:19) Women encouraging their husbands or long-term partners(30:46) Is women's sexual peak connected to maturity or vulva changes?(32:15) Long-term relationships & obligational sex(33:52) Penis girth & vagina depth/alignment - do they matter?(35:04) Body shape changes and penis shrinkage?!(36:41) The challenges of trying to spice things up in the bedroom(39:38) A man's diet & how it can affect his erection(42:28) Maurice rates Akumu's efforts in this Yes Challenge(49:11) Societal shame vs. self pleasure & women being taught to hate their body(52:00) If you're a woman who's never had an orgasm, where do you even start?!(53:50) Long-term relationship tips, rekindling the sexual spark & the importance of out-of-town role playing for sexual pleasure(1:01:58) A small thing anyone can start doing today for a better sex life(1:06:40) What Maurice has recently said "yes" to(1:08:36) Outro_____Together, Maurice and Akumu unpack what it means to be intimate with yourself before anyone else, and the rest of the discussion explores everything from pleasure as self-care and feminine embodiment to the long process of unlearning sexual shame. This episode isn't about being provocative or clickbait-y; it's about being present, curious, and empowered in your skin.If you've ever felt disconnected from your partner or your body, confused about what you enjoy, or silenced by outdated beliefs around sex and sensuality, this one's for you.Tune in for a bold, healing, and radically honest conversation that reminds us all: you don't just deserve pleasure. You were built for it._______Important resources:Find Maurice online:https://mauricetherapy.comFollow him:https://www.facebook.com/maurice.mathekamakauhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maurice_therapy254https://www.instagram.com/mauricemathekahttps://x.com/mauricetherapyWhat is an akashic record:https://www.britannica.com/topic/Akashic-record ____________________If you enjoy the podcast, we love you!
