Get The Gist Podcast

This week on Get The Gist, it’s a Just Us episode with Roz, Ri & Princess 🤍We kick things off reflecting on the last episode (because let’s be honest… the buzz balls were BUZZING), before diving headfirst into the chaos that is modern life, money, content, and constant consumption.We get into the oversaturation of social media, TikTok Shop madness, Vlogmas fatigue, and that feeling of always being sold to online. From commission-paid content to creators pulling out of platforms altogether, we ask the real question: are we doing too much?The conversation turns to consumerism, buying what you want vs what you need and whether treating yourself can sometimes be an act of self-love. We also talk about the cost of living crisis, eye-watering rent and electricity bills, broken heat pumps, oil heaters, and the reality of baffing with a kettle and a bucket 🪣 (because survival).We share personal life updates too:✨ new corporate roles✨ passing major exams✨ gym routines, deep cleans & first-time chimichurri winsAs we wrap up, we reflect on 2025, a year we can only describe as Overcoming. From nearly quitting to pushing through suitcase struggles, filming costs, and burnout, we celebrate how far the podcast (and the girls) have come, and the community that kept us going.We finish with a listener dilemma that sparks a deep and sensitive conversation around family, mental health, boundaries, and whether rekindling a fractured sibling relationship is the right choice.As always… get the gist, and get comfy 💬✨⸻Topics we cover:• TikTok Shop & creator burnout• Vlogmas & content overload• Feeling constantly sold to online• Want vs need spending• Why rent & bills are INSANE• Bucket bathing & cost-of-living realities• Reflecting on 2025• Listener dilemma: family, mental health & boundaries⸻💬 Let us know in the comments:Are we consuming too much?

This is Part Two of our chaotic link-up with the In My Opinion boys — and the vibes are still very much unhinged.We’re coming down from the madness of our live show, reflecting on just how mad it actually was. If you don’t know the IMO boys by now, that’s on you 😌. From Spotify #1s and Billboard chart energy to the pressure of trying to top a night that honestly shouldn’t be topped — success is sweet, but the expectations? TERRIFYING.The convo then shifts into knowing yourself and your weaknesses — when to hold back, when to observe, and why sometimes staying composed is a survival tactic. We talk identity, self-control, and navigating spaces where you’re hyper-aware of how you’re perceived, especially when you’re the only one in the room.And of course, Christmas enters the chat — but not in the way you’re used to. We compare UK Christmas to Christmas in Nigeria and Uganda, where presents are basically irrelevant, Jesus might not even get a mention, and the real excitement is FOOD, meat, and full-day feasting. UK Christmas? The vibes might be off.It’s reflective, funny, slightly chaotic, and still very much Get The Gist.Enjoy your weekly subscription to the Gist ✨⸻We’re talking:🎤 Live show reflections & post-show pressure📈 IMO boys’ insane podcast success — Spotify & Billboard energy🧠 Understanding your weaknesses & knowing when to move smart🖤 Navigating spaces where you stand out🎄 Christmas in Nigeria & Uganda vs the UK🍗 When food is the main event and presents don’t matter😌 Self-awareness, growth & quiet confidenceSubscribe, like, and protect your peace this festive season.🚨 WE WANT YOUR DILEMMAS 🚨Got a vent, confession or story?

This week, GET THE GIST link up with the IN MY OPINION boys for a chaotic, hilarious Christmas Special episode 🎄We get into glow-ups, wild work Christmas party stories, being the only Black person in the office, drunk coworkers oversharing, awkward compliments, and Irish work parties that genuinely need their own case study. There’s taxi driver madness, bus confessions gone left and growing up “too white”. We sit and reflect on Nigerian nicknames, cultural misunderstandings, and compliments that absolutely did not land.Plus: a completely unhinged attempt to name female anatomy that goes spectacularly wrong, a sudden salmon boycott over rumours it carries STIs, and a 107-year-old great-grandmother who credits her long life to quitting sugar and finally knowing peace once her husband passed. We also hear about a Christmas in Uganda that casually involved killing a cow, drinking its blood, and eating the testicles like it was light work.Amid the madness, IMO reflect on their insane podcast success, breaking records, topping Spotify charts and feeling like they’ve hit Billboard levels. The love is mutual as both pods talk genuine connection, family ties, and flying across countries to show up for eachother.Pure chaos, cultural whiplash, and zero filters EXACTLY how GTG does it 🎙️✨🚨WE WANT YOUR DILEMMAS 🚨Is there something you want to get off your chest?
