MWM: Traditional Foods with Makhosi Mahlangu
In this week’s Mental Wellness Mondays episode, Danny & Dr. Nyarai chat with Makhosi Mahlangu, the founder of the African Food Revolution, an organisation concerned with food production on the African continent. He is also the author of the award-winning book on Traditional African Foods entitled "Our Food, Our Heritage, Our Future". He explains his beliefs in the importance of eating foods that we grew up with from childhood, and avoiding the over-processed fast foods of today.

Put out a flyer and host a welcome-back dinner for us because Dan & Phil return to the podcast after a brief hiatus! There’s a lot to catch up on, from a review of the BET Awards, to the furore surrounding Madam Boss attending, and even a conversation on nepotism after Saweetie asked people to stop calling her a nepo baby. We even have leftovers from last week about Tyla on The Breakfast Club, and very important questions about selling feet and snitching. Enjoy!
