Our vibrant community embraces storytelling through longer videos on the app

As part of our efforts to bring viewers engaging content, we are thrilled to announce the launch of our newest podcast, #TeaTalk, a captivating venture to uncover the untold stories and personal experiences of renowned Nigerian public figures. Through this innovative podcast, we enable these individuals to connect with their audience by engaging in long-form video discussions.

At the heart of #TeaTalk is the charismatic host, Toke Makinwa, who skillfully conducts discussions and interviews with some of Nigeria's most prominent celebrities. We have an impressive lineup of notable guests, including the legendary Jim Iyke, the comedic genius Bovi, the esteemed Kate Henshaw, the iconic Charles Inojie, the beloved Sydney Talker, the charismatic Chidi Mokeme, and the vivacious Oluwabukunmi Adeaga (kie_kie_). With three full-length episodes, each episode running for 10 minutes and numerous shorter clips, our vodcast offers an unprecedented look into the lives and experiences of these individuals.

Bianca Sibiya, our Head of Content Operations in Sub-Saharan Africa, expressed, "We are dedicated to producing engaging and insightful content that brings a fresh perspective to the entertainment industry. Through sharing exclusive details and previously undisclosed insights, #TeaTalk brings public figures and their fans closer, uniting them in a genuine bond."

She added, "#TeaTalk creates a unique space where we can relate to our favourite stars. In a digital age where connections often feel superficial, #TeaTalk invites us to form genuine bonds and reminds us of the profound impact personal stories can have on our lives."

Glitch Africa Studios manages the production of our new vodcast, ensuring top-quality episodes that captivate listeners from beginning to end. #TeaTalk’s commitment to delivering engaging and informative content is poised to increase its popularity and influence.

Our platform has proven to be a game-changer for creators like Sydney Talker, allowing him to turn his passions into a thriving career. Sydney's comedic talent, showcased on our app, is just one example of the numerous creators who have succeeded through the platform.

Expanding the video format to accommodate up to 10 minutes on our platform opens up exciting possibilities for the world of podcasting. It allows for the incorporation of visual elements into engaging and informative discussions. As our app’s community has reshaped creative expression in short-form content lasting under 60 seconds, we eagerly anticipate how individuals will harness the extended format to entertain, inspire, and explore a broader range of creative opportunities. This strategic evolution underscores our ongoing commitment to innovation and growth, reaffirming its standing as a prominent platform for fostering video-based creative expression.
