Derek Owusu & Jason Okundaye: Losing the Plot

Olivia Attwood

It seems that the memory of Kem being the villa's resident barber is *fading* into the distance....His Twitter commentary has been on fire all summer and now he's on the podcast - Jason Okundaye is here with Kem and Arielle today for our morning debrief! Nothing says time to party like a recoupling right?! Last night - the girls got to choose in the recoupling. It resolved some of the drama from Casa Amor, but it has ratted a few more cages... it's never simple is it?  And last night we had the Spotify Summer Party - Mabel was in the villa (but don't worry - Toby didn't try to couple up with her) and she was absolute fire. Our Islanders really deserved a treat didn't they? Liam even provided us with a cheeky encore. Wish he'd had backing dancers too, tbh. Last night we voted for our favourite couple on the Love Island app - and we're going to be on tenterhooks all day waiting to see the results of the vote on tonight's episode. It's going to be sad saying goodbye to any of our Islanders, but at least it might resolve the weird beds in the living room situation... It's Wednesday, so Olivia Attwood is here to solve all your problems. If you have a problem that's playing on your mind, you can email us on themorningafter@itv.com. We've had fades, friendship bracelets AND Kem's catchphrase... what's next - Toby scoring the winning goal at Soccer Aid?!

S4 E32 - Bad Boys For Life (with Jason Okundaye and Olivia Attwood)

Hey podulters, in this episode I speak to Jason Okundaye. Jason is a journalist and he is currently writing his first book, Revolutionary Acts : Stories of Love, Brotherhood, and Resilience from Black Gay Britain . We discuss the three things he wishes he had been taught in school, namely social history, media and media ethics, and public speaking. At the end we speak about identity politics and how our attitudes towards it and the ‘privilege’ discourse are changing, which I personally think is quite an interesting topic. Especially as this podcast has centred itself around those things for a while so it’s always refreshing and interesting when you find yourself growing out of - or growing beyond - an idea! I hope you enjoy listening (can’t believe this is episode 101) as always please do rate, review and subscribe! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
