Your 2026 Guide To Happiness: Delusion, Whimsy & Don't Date Siblings (Please)

Описание: You know what rhymes with 2026? ISWIS! We’re back with a bang for season 8! On the first episode of the year, we discuss if new year resolutions are in or out, and somehow we end up complaining about the Nigerian experience (as usual). We talk about our super fun holidays and the need to add more whimsy and enjoyment in life — maybe that’s our actual new year resolution. We also discuss the need to reduce pleasantries or niceties and actually touch base with people to find out how they’re really doing. And of course, the 2026 dilemmas are really juicy! When will you guys actually change? We get into dating siblings, using someone to secure a visa, feeling jealous towards someone else’s success and the possibility of your parent cheating on their spouse! We’re really looking forward to doing 2026 with you and we have so much planned, so enjoy!
