In My Kitchen with Yvonne

In My Kitchen with Yvonne is a community-focused podcast hub for honest, kitchen-table conversations built for New Africa and the Diaspora. The show brings together the ones who left, the ones who stayed, and the ones building a life between two worlds, and gives them a space where nothing is off limits and everything is spoken with love and honesty.

Each episode sits down with the topics our communities actually talk about: money, family and obligation; marriage, power and modern relationships; parents and children; men, women and emotional wellbeing; education around the kitchen table; and the generational clash between Gen Z and tradition. Recurring formats like Auntie, Be Honest, What the Children Want to Ask, What Parents Cannot Say and The Village Vote keep the conversations grounded, real and useful.

The hub is for listeners across Kenya, Uganda, the wider African continent and the Diaspora who want more than headlines: parents, young people, couples, educators, founders and anyone carrying a question they have not been able to ask out loud. New episodes drop every Tuesday at 11:30 BST, with daily clips and shorts in between.

In My Kitchen with Yvonne is created and hosted by Yvonne Buluma-Samba, a Kenyan educator and economist, and is produced as an independent community project. This site is the dedicated home for the podcast: a place to find episodes, follow the conversation, and stay connected to the village.
