Your favourite Aunties, Ak, Farrah and Nana, are back with another packed episode, joined by the long overdue Remi Burgz, broadcaster, DJ, music journalist, cultural commentator and one of the voices behind Spotify's Who We Be Talks.
AUNTYVENTION
🫂 This week’s Auntyvention asks a simple question: when does a joke stop being a joke? After creator Nigel Tatem shared how years of racist "banter" at school left him feeling isolated. The Aunties unpack the difference between mutual jokes and making someone the punchline every day.
