The podcast episodes provide insights into the complex and challenging situation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), a country that has endured a long history of colonialism, violence, and exploitation of its natural resources.

The first episode, The 5 tenets of turning pain into power, focuses on the City of Joy initiative, which helps women survivors of gender-based violence in the DRC to heal, reclaim their bodies, and become leaders. This episode highlights the resilience and strength of the Congolese people in the face of adversity.

The second episode, Friends of the Congo: The Congolese Struggle for Self-Determination, delves deeper into the history of colonialism, the ongoing violence and resource exploitation in the eastern region, and the need to support the Congolese people's struggle against imperialism and for control over their land and resources.
