Episode Details

In this episode, SMWX sits down with Sol Phenduka — legendary broadcaster, musician, master of the pun, and co-host of Podcast and Chill. We get into Phenduka’s story before the spotlight: being raised by his mom, the grit of the early years, how hip-hop and production shaped his voice, and the hustle that took him from UJFM to the YFM pipeline. Then we unpack what people don’t see: the behind-the-scenes work, structure, and consistency that turned Podcast and Chill from “just chatting” into a full enterprise. To close, we touch on the state of the country — policing, corruption, consequences — and the frustration driving voters ahead of the next big election.
