Catch the show Saturdays at 10 PM on SPEAK MPLS TV, Comcast Channel 17 or on the SPEAK MPLS website. Odejuma is also available wherever you stream podcasts and on YouTube. Link in our bio. by @odejumapod

You can now watch episodes of Odejuma on SPEAK MPLS!
SPEAK MPLS is a member-powered public access television platform in Minneapolis, built to give local voices and residents the space to broadcast their stories and content to the city. Odejuma airs every Saturday at 10 PM on Channel 17 on Comcast, and on their website at speakmpls.com/watch. We couldn’t be more excited to bring the stories of the incredible people we feature to the residents of Minneapolis.

Being gay, Nigerian, and living in America comes with plenty to talk about. So I brought @uche_onwa, @kachinna_, and @igwe_obinna1 together, and we got into it!

From growing up in church to first kisses, messy breakups, and the family expectations that follow us into adulthood, we talk about how our experiences have shaped how we date and express ourselves. We laughed, we disagreed, and we told the truth.

Odejuma is back and I got a chance to have an amazing conversation with @thegaydatingcoach!

We talked about it all from the dynamics of dating as Black gay folks to how he has consistently helped Black gay men find love for over a decade. We get real about intentionality in dating, the fear of rejection, situationships with Lamont also sharing a little bit about his love story.

Like I said, this is such a good episode and you would be glad you listened. Available everywhere you stream your podcasts and on YouTube. Link in my bio. by @odejumapod

Back with another episode of @odejumapod and I am so excited to share this one because I have the amazing @ratedrian of the @rianoutloudpodcast! Trust we didn’t just do a deep dive of Raven-Symoné’s discography but we also talked about the challenges of being a Black queer creative in 2026 and also curating spaces for us.

It was such a great conversation so check it out. Link in my bio. Also, if you love Raven’s music, do you agree with our take? 😊 by @odejumapod

I am so excited about this episode of Odejuma because I got to talk with the amazing @kitchenbutterfly about the way she digs into the history and stories behind Nigerian food, and about her James Beard winning cookbook, Chop Chop.

I could not let her go without asking about the growing online thread of folks trying to “elevate Nigerian food.” It is something I have my own feelings about, and it turns out she and I land in a similar place. There is a difference between exploring Nigerian food and assuming it needs lifting up to begin with. I will let her make the case in the episode.

It was such great conversation. Make sure to check it out everywhere you stream your podcasts and on YouTube. Link in my bio. by @odejumapod

Chosen family is always the answer!

I am back with another episode of Odejuma, and it is a few days late this week, but trust me when I say it is worth the wait. “Build with the people you already have.” That is the lesson @iamzoladee took from Dominique Morisseau, and it’s the line from this episode we keep coming back to. Not the room you’re trying to get into but the one you’re already standing in. This was such a fun episode. Zola and I get into everything from her career to her relationship with her spirituality. Check it out now. The full episode is streaming, link in bio. by @odejumapod

Closing out Pride Month with @ashtonsdreams talking about the importance of telling our open stories. Like he said, the stories we choose to tell right now set the terms for the next hundred. What gets made. What gets seen. What the next generation gets to point to and say, I want one like that. So document your life. Tell the story. Especially now.

This is the last Odejuma for the month of June, and I can’t think of a better note to end Pride Month on than this one. The full conversation is on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube , and everywhere you stream your podcasts. Link in my bio. by @odejumapod
