Generation Africa
Tim Albone
Generation Africa is podcast dedicated to African stories and the remarkable people who call Africa home.
Each week Tim Albone, your host, meets incredible people with amazing stories. Generation Africa tells the stories of hope, growth and creativity that are so common in Africa, but so often ignored.
Our guest will be explorers, entrepreneurs, surgeons, doctors, researchers, business gurus, sports stars, environmentalists, musicians, photographers and film makers. Africa’s game changers. Africa is a continent on the move and Generation Africa introduces you to those moving it.
Generation Africa is more conversation than interview. Challenging. Personal. Inspired. These conversations will inform and entertain.
Please join us on our journey.

Listen to the last episode:
"I am biased, I try to correct my biases in my reporting, but yes i come from a point of view. I think the role of the responsible journalist is to always be aware of his or her biases and correct them or compensate for them."
