About the show

Liuwa Pod is a ten-minute daily news show made in Lusaka. Every morning, Tash and Bwalya take the stories that matter to Zambian households and businesses, from power and mining to the kwacha, fuel and food prices and the wider world, and work out why they happened and what they mean for you. Then Professor Grace Mumba drops in with a word of the day and a piece of maths anyone can follow. Every figure is sourced in the show notes. The hosts are synthetic voices; the facts are real and independently checked. Nothing on Liuwa Pod is financial advice. Made by Liuwa Tech.
