Kisses from Kenya Episode 40: Cooking Origins, Project 2025, and "Is This Relationship Open?”

Send us Fan Mail Episode 40: Cooking Origins, Project 2025, and "Is This Relationship Open?” This is Kisses from Kenya — the usual laughs, the commentary nobody asked for, and all your favorite segments. Here's your quick rundown of what's inside. In This Episode Vuyanzi and Brendan trace how they each learned to cook — his story turns out to be genuinely profound, while she's still finding her footing after basically not cooking for three years.  Then it's Project 2025: less "Trump is this and that," more a real look at the organizations behind it, the involvement of Dr. Ben Carson, and just how urgent this all actually is.  Somewhere in the mix, Vuyanzi hears a song out with Kenyan friends and realizes it's an entire Jackson song from the '90s she'd somehow never heard before, and Brendan tries to get a straight answer out of a guy on whether his relationship is open — verdict: unclear — right before the guy tells him not to breathe a word about any of it.  Also: someone made an officer late for work, and Vuyanzi's son is officially getting married.
