    Hey CheckMates, it’s Check Edgar here!

    Welcome to another wild and hilarious episode of Why Am I Still Single? Today’s episode is titled The Gold Circle, and it’s a ride filled with glitz, glamour, and one very suspicious “business mogul” named Vanessa.

    This story begins with a DM that wasn’t exactly flattering—Vanessa insulted my voice, but somehow, that turned into a conversation. Before I knew it, she was offering to manage my career. Vanessa wasn’t just charming; she was dazzling. She had the lifestyle to match—private jets, designer everything, and big promises, including a Netflix deal. But as our interactions unfolded, the lines between romance and business got blurry, and so did her motives.

    The Gold Circle is all about trust, intuition, and spotting the difference between genuine connections and carefully crafted illusions. So, grab your headphones and tune in to this rollercoaster of a story. And remember—Edgar doesn’t lie. Check Edgar out!

    It’s been a minute, I know—and this episode might not even stay up for long, so listen while you can! I’m spilling the tea on why I’ve been MIA, including the chaos of juggling a new job, planning a tour, and, yes, even delivering fowl for my mom (don’t ask).

    I’m also giving you a sneak peek into 2025: new episodes, exclusive content, and exciting projects like the Checkedgar website, two limited podcast series (Disclosure and Blue Roses), and fresh blogs (In Other News and The Barristers).

    Plus, I’m sharing something really special: the first-ever audio storytelling recordings I made back in 2015 as a student at the University of Lagos. They’re raw, personal, and recorded on my phone—but hey, it’s history in the making!

  • Breakfast In Bed
    Dec 12 2024

    Chat with Check Edgar

    Hey CheckMates, it’s Check Edgar here!
    Welcome to another heartwarming episode of Why Am I Still Single? Today’s episode is titled Breakfast in Bed, and it’s one for the books—a blend of romance, heartbreak, and some hard-to-swallow truths.

    In this episode, I take you back to 2017, to a friend’s party where a random game of Truth or Dare led me to meet Fola, the woman who would redefine what love—and betrayal—meant to me. What started with me begging her for her number (to complete the dare) turned into a rollercoaster of morning texts, pineapple deliveries, and late-night laughs that made me believe in love.

    Fola wasn’t just any girl; she was thoughtful, attentive, and had this knack for showing she cared in the smallest yet most meaningful ways. But as our relationship blossomed, cracks began to show—cracks shaped like her "cousin" Bro Joe. What followed was a messy journey of trust issues, denials, and a breakup over breakfast that left me questioning everything.

    This episode explores the sweetness of love, the bitterness of heartbreak, and the lessons hidden in between. Whether you’ve ever felt blindsided in a relationship or served up breakfast only to get served heartbreak, this story will hit home.

    So, grab a cup of coffee, sit back, and listen to Breakfast in Bed. And as always, remember—Edgar doesn’t lie. Check Edgar out!

  • Vision and Dreams
    Nov 30 2024

    Chat with Check Edgar

    Hey CheckMates, it’s Check Edgar here! Welcome to another episode of Why Am I Still Single? Today’s episode is called Vision and Dreams, and believe me, this one’s a wild mix of romance, mystery, and a few spine-chilling revelations.

    In this episode, I’m sharing the story of how a routine bus ride turned into an unforgettable experience with Vee, a woman whose mesmerizing eyes seemed to hold entire worlds. What started as a simple act of kindness—paying for her bus fare—quickly spiralled into a surreal connection. But it wasn’t just her beauty that intrigued me. She claimed she had seen me in a dream weeks before, right down to the shirt I wore that day.

    Our budding friendship was filled with laughter, late-night texts, and, of course, her constant sharing of eerie, prophetic dreams. But things took a darker turn when Vee revealed her unique “SuperPower” of seeing visions by holding someone’s palm. She spoke of dreams that had come true—tragically so—including her father’s untimely death. And just when I thought I’d heard it all, her eyes... changed.

    This episode dives into the strange, the unexplained, and the fine line between fascination and fear. If you’ve ever wondered if fate is real or felt chills from an uncanny coincidence, this one’s for you.

    So, grab your headphones, sit back, and listen to Vision and Dreams. And, as always, remember—Edgar doesn’t lie. Check Edgar out!

  • Red Light Revelation
    Nov 22 2024

    Chat with Check Edgar

    Hey CheckMates, it’s Check Edgar here! Welcome to another episode of Why Am I Still Single? Today’s episode is called Red Light Revelation, and trust me, this one’s a rollercoaster of discovery, denial, and some hard-to-ignore red flags.

    In this episode, I’m sharing the story of my short-lived romance with Uju, a mysterious and stunning woman I met at a local store. What began as a simple act of kindness on my part, paying for her peak milk to stop a heated argument, quickly turned into something more. From constant late-night messages to early-morning exhaustion, everything seemed fine...until the signs began to emerge. Uju's work, supposedly as a personal assistant, seemed to hide secrets that didn’t add up.

    Things got complicated the day I went to visit her apartment and found some... well, questionable items lying around. But the real twist? One night, Fela, my friend, went to perform at a club and saw her there—in a mask, dancing as a stripper. Confrontations and denials followed, but the biggest shock was yet to come.

    A final encounter revealed her hidden life and a heartbreaking story that shaped who she is today. This episode dives into the challenges of dating someone with a complex past, the clash between appearances and reality, and the fine line between love and losing yourself in trying to "fix" someone.

    If you’ve ever been blindsided by love or caught off-guard by a secret, you’re going to relate to this episode. So, grab your headphones, sit back, and listen to Red Light Revelation. And, as always, remember—Edgar doesn’t lie. Check Edgar out!

    Chat with Check Edgar

    Hey CheckMates, it’s Check Edgar here! Welcome to another episode of Why Am I Still Single? Today’s episode is titled Faith or Feelings, and trust me, this one hits close to home.

    In this episode, I’m diving into one of the most unforgettable relationships of my life—a story of love and faith that pushed me to rethink everything I thought I knew. I fell for Amina, a remarkable Muslim woman, during the End SARS protests. But as our connection grew, so did the realization that we were up against some pretty big obstacles. From family reactions to the delicate balance between respecting her beliefs and honoring my own, this journey taught me what it really means to care about someone without trying to change who they are.

    It’s a story of romance, respect, and hard choices—where we ask, when it comes to love, how much are we really willing to sacrifice?

    Whether you’ve been in a relationship that tested your beliefs or just wondered how love can cross boundaries, this episode is for you. So sit back, listen in, and let’s talk about the delicate line between faith and feelings.
