Szn 2, Episode 5: Joko invites Waxal Podcast

November 27, 2020 • Arame & Aida • Season 2 • Episode 5

In this episode, Joko invites Waxal Podcast, a group of Senegalese guys who speak on different topics. For this conversation, the group tackles four topics: (1) romantic relationships between Africans and African-Americans, (2) the stigma around the use of marijuana in Senegalese society, (3) the pressure to succeed, and last but certainly not least, (4) polygamy vs. monogamy. It's a discussion you don't want to miss!
