He reflects on his near death experience due to Covid and addresses gatekeepers in opposition politics. This is an eye opener into to the world of one of the most misunderstood figures on Zimbabwean social media.

Thank you Kuda for trying to make people understand the most important part of women in our society. Women play a pivotal role in our lives and they just deserve strong respect and recognition before looking at their weaknesses and wrong doings. As men and women, we were assigned work to do by God. It's sad that the status of women in Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 has been devalued due to people who post things online irresponsibly because they fail to understand the essence of digital community/environment. There's a lot of work to do in our society because we have lost moral values, hence our standards of humanity have been eroded! #Godbless

What an inspiring conversation, Kuda is one of the most honest man I know of.

[@TapiwaMunyanyi]

Whoever is behind the production crew, salute to you sir, visuals and colors are out of this world. Secondly, Kuda is an OG, met him back when I was in Zim 🇿🇼 (2021), he's a really cool dude.

[@nyashab4276]

Great interview! Insightful. Delivery is on point from Kuda, and really good host! The visuals are on point! Well done to the production team!

[@ashbrxghtmaz]

I love this oen. He's cool. A rockstar

[@theyjustwantyourmoney4539]

I'm glad you touched the issue of Ponzi schemes, here in Britain it's only Asians and Africans that fall for Ponzi schemes

[@simpsonkamonere3926]

Zim is a religious country, just add God to whatever you say and the people will follow you. The word follow should be read as vote for

[@thamim4927]

This interview was too short 😅 my guy was spitting gems 💎 all the way to the end

[@innocentndenda7357]

Zimbabweans we so rational persuasionzec , we need to give credit were it's due, Prof J Moyo came with local content and has produced a lot of artists

[@kundaigotore992]

I liked what he said about being a PK. It all makes sense.

[@Nunutrulyblessed]

A lot of truths. Glad I listened in.

[@hawed19]

Always been a begottenson fan since 2010 so great to seem evolved to the chief he is now

[@benadettemaumbe6636]

this was mind blowing

[@marleymdoka]

I like how people still cringe at the mention of an expletive in a native tongue, thats Zimbabwean culture for you

[@mticha9566]

You helped Fadzai a lot when she was contesting as an independent.

[@thanos263]

Very dope interview. 1 of the best you’ve done

[@MlungisiDubeMthembo]

[@robsonallenchirara]

Alex. You need to tweak your interviewing skills a bit. There were so many follow up questions that you missed. You could have unpacked more. But instead you kept on introducing questions that deviated the conversation to other issues. Opinions of the guests are okay, but we want to know who they are first.

[@morgankafata140]

You are very realistic my brother!!!

[@charibannywell]

"Worst run" key phrase

[@thabanipmlilo]

The Big Homie so profound and great interview 👏

[@rumpelstiltskin709]

Second time coming here. I think I like this podcast.

[@hakustream]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@denzelsambo]

I am invested in this...

[@TheSearoad]

The interview is good but questions were a bit scattered and were not really structured .

[@vkjfv]

the interviwer is rubbish to be honest worst i have seen he has no cohesion and all over the shop

[@chidomusasiwa3364]

We sure are religious!

[@ivymwashaenyi3811]

Being a PK (pastor's kid) comes with privileges and challenges, as you witness both the good and dark sides of the church. ✦ Being a PK (preacher's kid) comes with privileges and challenges. 00:03 ✦ Growing up in Zimbabwe, the rapid decline of the Zim dollar led me to stay in the UK for 15 years. 05:46 ✦ Being responsible online and understanding the impact of words 16:21 ✦ Being in a coma is a terrifying experience 21:25 ✦ The lack of collaboration and inflated egos hinder the progress in our political sector. 30:55 ✦ Volunteering to bring competencies for crowdsourcing during a campaign but facing backlash 35:44 ✦ Ponzi schemes thrive in highly religious countries 46:14 ✦ Running a tech business, a Greek business, and a farm while being a parent is great 51:34 ✦ Making sure the language and user experience is personalized 1:01:19 ✦ Zimbabwe is often self-deprecating about the country, but there are worse places in Africa

[@dezinschoolstillandmovingp6972]

Amazing interview. But. Interviewer could have planned their questions, segments better because Kuda’s origin story was not explored well.

[@RiddimsAndRaps]

I respect his style but you've got a point, the approach gotta be a little less reactive

[@kundaigotore992]

Origin stories are played out.

[@SetoSokotsu]

16:01 here's the thing: that's NOT the point of their messaging. The point is to grift off of male insecurity. These guys can scarcely define what being a "high value man" is, which is central to their ideology. It's the commoditization of masculinity, which the drive-by shout-outs does help; honestly speaking.

[@thanos263]

Very good interview. However we need you bro. Especially pama election apa. Without you, then the poor leadership will just continue.

[@TSZee]

[@masvingozimuto]

I think most African countries have the opportunity to grow even better than most European countries. People are migrating because Africa does not have ambitious politicians. It's true that despite the economic challenges that we are going through as a nation Zimbabwe is still a country you will never want to compare with most of our neighbors in terms of standard of living and peace. But what I would like to believe is never compare yourself with failures, and feel good about it. Nothing can stop us from comparing ourselves with UAE, Singapore etc. The natural resources are in abundance, and so is the human resources so why not. Strive Masiyiwa should be an inspiration to all of us to not have excuses that we can't do it. Kuda is very right when he says we are a people of excellence, and that must remain the culture. Zimbabwe must set the standard that others must follow. Yes we can.

[@allenchilekw5698]

But how many neighbours does Zim have ? And how many of them does Zim surpass in everthing..be it economic, development or standard of living?

[@kundaigotore992]

We need less ambitious leaders, we need leaders who want to serve the people not their personal ambitions and goals.

[@masvingozimuto]

​@@kundaigotore99238:18 When we talk about ambitious leaders, we are talking about ambitions to build their countries to world class level. Just to give you an example, we just don't want nice highways, we want dualized highways, we just don't want enough electricity we want to produce electricity for local supply and export, same with agriculture, produce not just enough for local consumption but for export to as far as Europe. The government must create an enabling environment for business to thrive. They must not take it upon themselves to feed the people, we can work for ourselves, we just need a enabling environment.

[@masvingozimuto]

​@@allenchilekw5698 The current situation in Zimbabwe is as follows 1) The bigger number of people who are supposed to be our middle income have left the country for greener pastures. I estimate that about 30 to 40% of these people are building back home. Some are actually building nice homes on the land (plots) that they were given by the government ( cheap rural land) 2) The economy is now controlled by the informal sector. People in the informal sector are either renting a house from someone living in the diaspora or they built their own cash ( no bank loan) You will never find what they call Mkukwini (slums) in South Africa. We don't have such places in Zimbabwe. Poor people actually live in better houses than you will find in countries with better GDP than Zimbabwe. It's something we don't actually appreciate as Zimbabweans. 3) The current problem in Zimbabwe is the civil servants salaries which are too low, the roads, the hospitals, and our schools. Dirty water from our taps is another thing Chamisa needs to fix after 23 August because he is the next president. Mugabe did well on giving us land, Munangagwa also played his part. He increased electricity generation by 600MW.

Do you remember the biggest ponzi in the world? It was my country, America. 99% of the people in it was white.

Calling oneself a "salad" is corny.. Smart and interesting dude tho.

[@ashleymapfumo9123]

Man is disrespecting Shadhaya, jus becoz he is not economically gifted doesn't make his message not usefull......

[@tkamashuro6576]

Shadaya talks rubbish. Kuda 8s right. How can he (Shadaya) say ladies who have babies and not married are whores? That's insanity of the highest order. Shadaya is a schizoid

1:13:10 Kuda is right, it’s subjective. Based on our culture, it’s difficult to let a youngster go to the studio (note l haven’t even dived into gender on that last sentence). But that sentence is the surface of why things are the way they are.

[@owenchikara517]

The most unpopular incumbent 😂😂😂

[@phillthedrill]

Average interview i would say, my reasons Kuda was ranting too much, over one question i wouldnt keep up with original question asked and its never good to interview muface wako, you dont ask the right questions

[@ShuvaiAprilzw]
