    I Need Some Help! The JONATHAN BENAIAH Podcast

    I Need Some Help! The JONATHAN BENAIAH Podcast

    Now as you probably already see in the title, I need some help and the detail of my request forms this week’s episode.



    For the very first time ever, I jumped onto a YouTube LIVE broadcast to discuss the podcast and also twist things around a bit. Just a little bit.



    This week’s episode was delivered via a LIVE Broadcast on the YouTube channel. This is a repost of that broadcast.



    You can watch that video here https://bit.ly/3p6yN3Q

    Trailer: I Need Some Help! The JONATHAN BENAIAH Podcast

    Now as you probably already see in the title of this episode trailer… I need some help and the detail of my request for a favour will form this week’s episode. 

    For the very first time ever, I will be jumping onto a YouTube live this Sunday to discuss the podcast and also twist things around a bit. Just a little bit.



    This week’s episode will be delivered via a LIVE Broadcast on the YouTube channel at exactly 6:30 PM Kampala Time or call it East African Time (+3 GMT); which I believe should be 8:30 AM Pacific Standard Time and 11:30 AM Eastern Standard Time.

    I have left a link down below regarding where to join the LIVE Show. I think I’ll also put that link up on Twitter and Instagram as well for those folks that already follow me in that world.

    Campfire Tales - Stories About The Bagisu And Sabinyi People Of Mount Elgon

    Campfire Tales - Stories About The Bagisu And Sabinyi People Of Mount Elgon

    This week’s episode is rather an unusual one. It was recorded at 4100 meters Above Sea Level, around the warmth of a campfire on a rainy and very chilly night in the mountains. 



    In this episode, we take a deep dive into the lives, traditions, and history of the Gishu and Sabinyi people. 



    I am joined by Alex one of the guides from Mountain Elgon National Park, a true son of the land narrates this mysterious story with its many contrasts. 



    We will explore the uniqueness of this mountain which protects the world’s largest high caldera and still protects the world’s largest caldera base. 



    We will certainly talk about the ancient ritual of circumcision as well as the more controversial subject of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM). 



    Our journey of discovery will also lead us to the story of Kintu who many know to be the first Muganda; but very few know to have been one of the sons of Masaaba, the most sacred ancestor of the Bagisu people. 



    As the rain drops beat against our small iron sheet shelter and the sparks from the campfire fill the air, we will also learn about the linkage between the Sabinyi people of Mount. Elgon and their Jewish brothers from Biblical Jericho. 



    ENJOY!
