The Kikuyu-language podcast project offers a nostalgic journey back to the decade of the 1990s, delving into cherished childhood recollections from rural Kenya. The creators are driven by a deep fascination for the what was happening during that era. The primary objective of the podcast is to rekindle affection for the Kikuyu language, a vital carrier of the region's cultural heritage, particularly among the Kenyan diaspora.

Within its evolving trajectory, the podcast has evolved into a dynamic cultural platform, marked by themed podcast seasons that feature insightful discussions with cultural enthusiasts. This endeavor, steered by a team of innovative creatives and producers, presents the challenge of financial sustainability due to its grassroots and passion-driven nature.
