NCS, Duke of Edinburgh, Let's Go Camping
In this episode, Sawda shares her NCS stories and we discuss what would make us go camping.
But then I guess that's what - develops humanity. The people that want to push things and change things? And not necessarily just [...] they say, you know, growth happens outside the comfort zone. So if everyone just sits there, like yeah, this is it, then we don't get to a point where we can do more, and there can be more.Our discussion topic for the day is “ Multiple Streams of Income“:
I just graduated and started a 9-5 but I really want a side hustle that I can grow. So not something like door dash. I want something that I can turn into a passive income source. A lot of people sell digital products on etsy but anything that I’ve thought of doing (basic spreadsheets, wallpapers, wedding cards) are already so saturated, I really can’t think of a way to make a product that is better or stands out frm what is already in the market.
I’m open to any ideas or guidance. Thank you.

Defining Emotional Cheating, Is It Really Easy Or Am I Smart and Agents of Chaos
Inspired by our discussion topic we get into the technicalities of emotional cheating, what counts and what’s disrespectful but not cheating. Does emotional cheating even exist?
I don't want to sound disclaimer disclaimer, i don't want to sound like big headed or anything like that, I'm not, I'm a baby girl trying to learn in this life, constant student of life, but you know where people are just like oh my gosh this thing. And you're just like -the thing. It wasn't as deep as, it wasn't as hard as, it wasn't as taxing as, the noise. And sometimes I think it's just the noise of thing. It's not necessarily the actual thing do you know what I mean. That's another thing I'm trying to do this year and onwards is look at things, I guess more objectively, if that's the way to describe, it as averse to like, by the fleeting opinion, and noise that people put to things, and make my own judgment on something as averse to, like, allow other people to maybe influence my, my perception of something, and then set my own standard in my head that I will live by, and, you know, roll that way, as averse to like, wait for everyone else to see.Our discussion topic for the day is “Infidelity“, read the full topic on nimbj.blog---

I Love Me, But I've Got To Admit, I Really Wronged Myself
Can you even spell vulnerable without MNTQpod? In this episode, we sat down and got reflexive, we looked back at the year 2021 and our relationships with ourself and others. A lot was learnt and do you know what that’s called… “growth”
So I was just thinking about kind of like, how one of the major reasons I changed or I actively pursued change this year was because I wanted a different outcome. And I didn't get that outcome. And it was like, I have this mindset that you can only change yourself. You can't change like other people. So I tried to change myself in order to get this outcome---

Spiderman, Fast and Furious and The Dreaded Commute.
Let’s talk radioactive spiders and the most repeatedly killed off uncle in the history of dead uncles. It’s here, the Spiderman chat. First Nimz came for Captain America, then she let it off on Superman and now…
from the analysis, Tobey Maguire apparently was a bit dark and he was a bit hmm, Garfield is a bit too much like he was overdoing it, but Tom Holland has got the balance. I feel like he's actually the Spiderman.Our discussion topic for the day is “coping with remote work“

Is Food Cooked With Red Wine Halal?
It’s another episode on our favourite F word - Food! Tune in as we talk lactose intolerance, food combos that might just kill you and debate just how much unhalal is gelatine really?
I started off listening to this and I was like, Oh, it sounds like a communication thing. And then it got to, he don't give me anything on my birthday, talk less of a card. And I was like, ah here we are. And you buy him things that you can't afford. But you both work similar hours. And you both sound like you're in similar positions, but you're spoiling him. And he's never spoiled you. And we're years in. And no one's married. What's happening here?Our discussion topic for the day is “reciprocity in relationships“.

Another Debate on Billionaires and The Shackles of Pick Me-ism
At this point, our billionaire discourse might definitely be seen as hating from outside the clurbb, but us folks on this side of the bouncer really don’t understand the need for this club at all.
I don't, I don't want to be a hater. I don't want to be an enemy, because she gets a lot of hate and a lot of whatever. So I always keep my mouth shut. This tweet is just very much like, no, please don't cross my line. Like I'm giving you an imaginary line. And you're crossing it now. And now you're really getting on my nerves. Like you didn't need to do this.Tune in, you’ll love it

Self Care is Vitamin D, Jackie Aina's Palette and a Better Education System
S6E3
---
Last week we came for Architects this week we’re coming for Geography and the whole education system. In this episode, we talk about things we’re doing for ourselves to improve our quality of life, how we would want to improve the education system and get really into our discussion topic for the day.
So, my original point is that if you're taught one way of doing something, you're now going out into a world that is ever changing, are you not at a disadvantage? if your educational system has not equipped you with the skills of critical thinking, adapting new ways of learning. new ways of thinking? there are people who are not, for example, in technology whatsoever, but their lives could benefit greatly from learning about tech.Our discussion topic this week is about a couple earning 250k but somehow living beyond their means.
Tune in, it’s cute.

Architects, WTH are the 9 years for and Twitter Fraudsters, where's the sense?
---
In this episode, we talk scams. The scam that is architecture, that one shaman on bling empire and the 4k fraudster on Twitter. Also, why are criminals so senseless these days? What are you doing tweeting your crimes babe? Be smarter!
It's funny, because this is reminding me of Hushpuppi. Like, I knew of his story, obviously. But then my sister was like, she would see his Instagram account and go "it couldn't have been fraud, because he's so blatantly showing everything off".I swear she would see his - before he got busted, she would see his account. And she'd be like, This guy does look like he's banging fraud. But it's very like, he's very bold. But he just seemed really bold, but it can't be - he can't so easily be flaunting his fraudelent wealthOur discussion topic this week comes from a husband wanting to know what to do about his wife who cheated on him but is also going through treatment for a recent mental health diagnosis and wants to prioritise her health over their marital issues.
Tune in, it’s a wild one.

Is your skin giving what it needs to give? This week it’s all about skincare and the lengths we’ll go to care for our skins. Also, Halimat’s wifi was acting up so there’s a little Virgin media bullying going on and we share the most horrifying Reddit post *gasp*.

Work Blues, I'd Rather Not Have Responsibilities, Can I Rest?
Episode Snippet:
“I don’t know how to say this without sounding depressing but I just think solace and rest -true rest happens in Jannah….I just feel like because we know we're going to be given trials anyway, something is going to come to disrupt something, something is going to come to shift things and shake things and test you and to have you strive in this way or that way something is going to be a temptation - whatever, so it's just very much like I didn't really ask for this - But, okay, cool, I'll ride it out.”
