Surviving Nairobi

Funny,irreverent,ground-breaking, genre defying and award winning are all things that one day may be used to describe this show but for now this is just two Nairobians in their twenties (and guests of course) talking about navigating life through the city and many other things (mainly many other things). So join us on this journey even though for sure we do not know where we are heading.

On this episode your hosts, Ivy and Hafare are joined by Jay Dabliu, a multi-discipline artist and all-around great guy to discuss his latest EP, square one, his transition from being a teacher into the creative industry, how the creative industry is perceived and more. As always thank you for listening. As stated in the podcast, from now on you can financially support the podcast by sending your donation via Mpesa to 0742509392. We would really appreciate it and it would go a long way in keeping us going.
