    The crew sat down to discuss content production, the world of media in general and TV to be specific. Television and content producer Evabrenda makes an attempt to comfort the trio that podcasting has a future in Kenya. In retrospect, it must have been an attempt to make them forget the fact that everyone thinks Evabrenda is barely 16 years old.

She is currently working at Metropol TV, a premier business-focused Television station in the heart of Nairobi where she is involved in production of their daily live morning show. Additionally, she works on production of a pop-show at Metropol Tv with the name E-magazine during the week and amazingly she is still booked during the weekend.

  • 09. The end of an error: Mental Health, Depression and Hope

    26/12/2019 Duration: 40min

    Like all good things,  this episode drops late and last - yes. You heard us right. Sisi Watatu season 1 is over and we are glad that you have been with us every step of the way. We bring along two new guests, Kelly and Mora who help the boys tackle a new and somewhat difficult topic to speak about - Mental Health. Kenya currently ranks as the fourth country in Africa with the largest populations undergoing mental health issues. This means that there are at least 1.9 million people undergoing some form of mental health illness. And at least one in every four Kenyans undergoing clinical depression. What does this mean for the youth? We dissect some of the questions going through our minds, the topic yielding more questions than answers. Journey with us, albeit briefly, on this difficult road on "The end of an error".
