What’s it really like to grow up with a built-in best friend—or partner in crime? In this lively and heartfelt episode, we explore the fascinating world of twins with two incredible sets: The Popoola Twins and the Adedipe Twins. Kenny Popoola, Kenny Adedipe, and Taiwo "T-Dawg" Adedipe—my husband and a twin himself—share stories ranging from childhood mischief to the unique bonds and challenges of twinhood. This episode unpacks myths, cultural traditions (hello, Yoruba tribe), and the individuality that makes twins so extraordinary. From the Popoola twins’ calm childhood to the Adedipe twins’ knack for stirring trouble, we explore how shared birthdays don’t always mean shared destinies. Plus, we uncover why even twins with telepathic legends don’t always pick up the phone to call each other every day—looking at you, T-Dawg!

And the twin tales don’t stop here! Coming soon, we’ll bring in the wives to spill the tea on what it’s like being married to twins. Is it double the joy or double the competition?
