Check out host Bidemi Ologunde's new show: The Work Ethic Podcast, available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts. Email: bidemiologunde@gmail.com In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde explores a timely conversation about clout, narcissism, gossip, fake expertise, fake displays of wealth, cyberbullying, and digital self-control. What does it mean to carry Yoruba values into a world ruled by algorithms, attention, and performance? How do we recognize when confidence is fake expertise, when influence becomes cruelty, or when online success is only a staged illusion? And in an age of constant posting, dragging, and flexing, what does true Omolúàbí character look like online?
