Tea With Tay Podcast

In this episode, Tay sits down with Adeife Adeoye, digital creator, financial educator, and founder of Remote WorkHER, for a conversation about money, mindset, and building a life on her own terms.

From accidentally starting a content career to freelancing at 16 to support her dad’s Fiverr hustle, Adeife reflects on how she built Remote WorkHER from nothing, the risks she’s taken along the way, and the discipline it has taken to stay grounded through Nigeria’s harshest financial climate. She also opens up about growing up with a father who explained rather than dictated, her theory that your nervous system decides whether you can actually hold onto wealth, and why she refuses to invest in anything she doesn’t fully understand.

She also opens up about her concept of an “enough number,” and why she believes broke is a mindset long before it’s a bank balance.

There are funny moments, honest reflections, and plenty of stories from a woman who has built a business and a following from scratch, while staying brutally honest about what nobody else is saying out loud.

In this episode, Tay sits down with Toolz Oniru, veteran on-air personality, TV host, and first-time film director, for a conversation about fame, privilege, and staying grounded after decades in the spotlight.

From thirteen years at Beat FM to stepping behind the camera as a director, Toolz reflects on the risks she’s taken, the fears she’s had to push past, and the discipline it takes to keep reinventing yourself without losing who you are.

She also opens up about growing up as a princess of Oniru, navigating the “nepo baby” conversation, her non-negotiable dating red flags, and the moment that taught her to guard her inner circle for good.

There are funny moments, honest reflections, and plenty of tea from a woman who has spent decades in the public eye while still holding onto her privacy.

In this episode, Tay sits down with Miss Demz — Nigerian-British content creator, hairstylist and creative director for a no-holds-barred conversation about money, fame, love, and surviving Lagos as a woman who refuses to shrink herself.

Miss Demz opens up about growing up in London convinced she was Jamaican, her first culture-shock trip to Nigeria at 15, and how a planned six-month stay in Lagos turned into four years. She breaks down the real cost of showing up “influencer-ready” for a high-society wedding gele, nails, makeup, hair and waxing alone before you even get to the outfit and shares the wild story of getting arrested twice over a prop gun for a photoshoot. She also gets candid about dating in Lagos, sponsorship, the city’s elite dating scene, and doesn’t hold back on her views about patriarchy, domestic violence, and what’s actually changing for women in Nigeria versus what’s just talk online.

Funny, sharp, and unafraid to say the quiet part out loud — this is Miss Demz exactly as advertised.

In this episode, Tay sits down with Fola, Afrobeats singer-songwriter and one of Nigeria’s fastest-rising voices, for a conversation about patience, faith, and staying grounded while the world starts paying attention.

From singing in secondary school to working as a cashier at a betting shop back home in Ibadan, Fola takes us through the long road to this moment — the cousin who pulled him to Lagos, the almost-deal with Kizz Daniel before fate pointed him toward Bella Shmurda and Dagbana Republic, and the three-hour phone call it took to convince his team to let him drop his breakout single, Alone, before it was “ready.” He opens up about his sold-out UK tour and his stop at the Indigo at The O2, the excitement building for Canada, and why Caricature — a song he almost left off the album — became the fan favourite. He also gets into what fame has actually funded, from building his mother a church to getting his dad a duplex, and weighs in on whether Afrobeats is really facing a decline.

There are funny moments, honest reflections, and plenty of stories from an artist who’s still writing his own beginning — Fola style.

In this episode, Tay sits down with Dami Aros and Isaac Aigbadumah, the duo behind So Nigerian podcast, for a conversation that is honest, chaotic, and long overdue.

They get into how it all started — two guys in lockdown, a church office, and a recording session where they talked for 40 minutes without hitting record. From the first payment that had them doing the math in real time, to two full seasons without a sponsor, to a sold-out live show, they hold nothing back about what it actually costs to build something real in Nigerian media.

There are plenty of laughs, a very unexpected phone call, and a conversation that every podcaster, creator, or anyone building something in Nigeria needs to hear.
