Our interview with Obongjayar is completely uncut, despite his best efforts. Obongjayar—whose album Paradise Now is out now—hopped right off the plane to hit the studio and raucously riff with the boys on why he chooses to fly economy and loves plane food, our country's current moment of extreme Anglophilia, how he used to sing with an American accent and goes full Kyle mode for us, gun fever, his Youtube addiction and what's in the queue, the IG explore page do be jiggling though, getting out of the Nigerian trenches and moving to the UK as a teen, his home country's influence on mainstream music and where he fits in, an honest review of London's neighborhoods and their residents, a deep discussion on why he left religion behind that turns into a light realization that hell is definitely super lit if it's indeed real, FredAgain changing his life and how Fred leads by example, being so broke you gotta make the pizza and donuts stretch, his UK vintage spots, an education in grime, putting the vices on hold when it's time to record, his celibacy journey and dating maturation, trying to be a better human, and much more on Obongjayar's interview with The Only Podcast That Matters™.


In a world saturated with polished takes and predictable opinions, Throwing Fits offers a refreshingly unfiltered conversation. This podcast operates from the premise that two self-proclaimed grown dirtbags can provide some of the most genuine commentary on contemporary culture. The hosts navigate the ever-shifting landscape of style, art, and what it means to be a person with interests in today's world, all without taking themselves too seriously. Listeners are invited into a space where high and low culture collide, where a deep dive into a fashion trend can sit comfortably beside a rant about daily absurdities. The tone is less instructional and more observational, driven by a shared curiosity and a willingness to question the status quo. You'll hear the hosts grapple with the zeitgeist, often finding humor and insight in the most unexpected places. Their dynamic is the core of the show-a blend of camaraderie, playful ribbing, and moments of surprising sincerity that makes each episode feel like catching up with your most opinionated, yet oddly relatable, friends. It’s a dialogue about the things that shape our tastes and identities, delivered with a distinct voice that refuses to be neatly categorized. For those tired of formulaic discussions, this podcast provides a much-needed dose of personality and authentic, meandering conversation that somehow always circles back to what’s interesting, weird, or worth talking about right now.
