Description

Two Zimbabwean women. A mic. And the kind of questions you only ask when the formalities are over. Forget polished bios and LinkedIn headlines. Extraordinary Conversations with askChenai is where Zimbabwean origin stories get unpacked and your grandmother’s epic tale finally gets the spotlight. No story is too heavy, no question too cheeky, and no guest too grand to dodge the zombie apocalypse test. It’s a living archive of extraordinary Zimbabwean lives, told with laughter, tears, and zero filters. It’s raw, funny, emotional - and always unforgettable. New episodes every Friday.
