For a while now, Wolé and Tobi have been reflecting on the importance they attach to material possessions.

Wolé's thoughts on materialism began recently when a life transition made him question the number of clothes he needs.

Tobi's thoughts have been more mature, stemming from his longstanding view that he places little importance on material things that don't serve a functional purpose.

They sit down to discuss the origin of their materialistic tendencies, albeit to varying degrees. They question the reasons behind our consumption habits and why we are likely to own more than we use. They debate whether materialism can be good or bad, and explore how it extends beyond objects.

Of course, much of their conversation also highlights their hypocrisy. After all, they both own material objects that are only "nice to have" and are not essential for their survival.

So, can we truly escape materialism?

We'll let you answer that.
