The Kenyan Week That Was (KWTW)

A hard-hitting political commentary podcast that cuts through the noise of East African politics with investigative rigor and satirical edge. Hosted by DY, KWTW delivers weekly analysis of Kenya's political landscape, combining John Oliver-style satire with serious investigative journalism to hold power accountable.

Each episode examines the week's most significant political developments in Kenya and across East Africa, from government policy failures and corruption scandals to campaign strategies and historical context that shapes today's politics. KWTW operates on a simple principle: receipts over vibes—every claim is documented, every critique is evidence-based.

Whether dissecting President Ruto's latest speech, investigating youth empowerment fund failures, or drawing lessons from Africa's authoritarian past, KWTW makes complex political and economic information accessible without dumbing it down. This is political commentary that respects your intelligence while challenging comfortable narratives about Kenyan independence, democracy, and governance.

For those who want to understand not just what's happening in East African politics, but why it matters and what historical patterns we should recognize before it's too late.

New episodes weekly. Educational. Uncompromising. Culturally authentic.
