Let Them Eat Cupcakes & How Our Money Is Changing
Leigh-Ann Mol is back and the team wastes no time diving into the big debates. Why do women love flowers, and why can't men see the value in them? And is being a short king actually an underrated advantage, or is height still the ultimate flex? The crew unpacks both. The team also speak on the latest findings around the Ramaphosa Phala Phala situation. Then, Jonathan Fine and Lourens Reichert join Gareth to break down everything from the Finance Magnates Africa Summit — what it means for the continent, how crypto is reshaping the way we think about money, and why AI is accelerating the change faster than most people are ready for.

Back, Bothered & Motivated | ft. Simon Phillips
The team is back and the world didn't exactly slow down while they were gone. Gareth and Ben catch up on everything that's been happening, including yet another assassination attempt on Donald Trump. They also turn their attention closer to home — or at least, closer to the couch — as they unpack the growing Gen Z trend of grieving the end of a weekend. Is it a mental health conversation worth having, or has an entire generation gone soft? Either way, it makes for great radio. Then, Simon Phillips joins the show — the man behind the inspiring #SimonSaysServe movement. Simon's story is one of the most compelling you'll hear: a life rebuilt from the ground up, a decision to follow his heart when nothing was certain, and a reminder that reinvention is always possible. His message is simple but powerful — everyone has a story — and his is one you won't want to miss.

Begging for Coachella & Fixing South Africa
Gareth and Ben kick off Friday by taking aim at influencers who are willing to literally beg for brand deals just to make it to Coachella — but are influencers even influential anymore? The conversation then shifts to the surprising return of old-school dating trends that feel straight out of the early 1900s. Mash jumps in to stir things up with a take on “looksmaxxing” and body image, before DA Deputy Federal Chair Cilliers Brink joins the show to unpack the party’s 2026 manifesto and their plan to fix some of South Africa’s most broken cities.

Influencers, Idiots & A Stray Tissue
Gareth and Ben kick off their Friday unpacking the latest drama from the Madlanga Commission — including a mysterious stray tissue that’s got people talking. They dive into the bizarre world of looksmaxxing after its so-called leader, Clavicular, nearly overdoses, raising serious questions about the trend. The Comments Section LIVE returns with Bitcoin Boet… who’s baking bread? Yes, really. Plus, Clinton Els from Your Africa joins the guys to spotlight some of the continent’s most exciting travel destinations. Gareth wraps things up with a look at the latest stories making waves around the world.

Body Cams, Bad Decisions & Broken Roads
Gareth and Ben unpack our strange obsession with celebrity downfalls — especially those raw DUI body cam moments that go viral. They also break down rising tensions in the Strait of Hormuz and why it matters globally. Tumi Morake brings humour and perspective, from her joke about coming back as a butch lesbian to the impact of a new game she’s worked on that’s shining a light on African talent. Plus, Gareth and Tumi tackle Helen’s pothole stunt and the bigger question: who’s to blame for failing basic service delivery?

AI Slop, Gender Myths & Podcast Control
Gareth Cliff is back, unpacking the rise of AI-generated “slop” and asking where real content disappeared to. Dr Hanan breaks down the Greater Male Variability Hypothesis (and why women aren’t actually “crazy”), while Jonathan Warncke from the SA Podcasters Guild weighs in on potential government regulation—and what it means for authenticity in podcasting.

LIV Golf Chaos, Temu Dangers & Haydn Porteous' Comeback
Gareth and Ben kick off Friday with their take on South Africa’s first LIV Golf event, before diving into the risks of buying steaks and seafood from Temu—and the absurdity of convenience culture in 2026. Maria Watkins joins the team to talk about Gorilla Tracking in Rwanda, and how even the President helps on Spring Cleaning Day. Dr Alastair McAlpine breaks down what you actually need to know about GLP-1s, and Haydn Porteous shares his journey through mental health struggles and his comeback to pro golf.

Global Politics, Orania Property & The Impact of DJ Warras
Gareth kicks off the show with a fiery rant about the current state of government and South Africa’s global alliances. Ben joins the conversation to break down the latest in sport, including the buzz around the first LIV Golf event on South African soil. Mash dives into the property market in Orania and unpacks the curious trend of “Ozempic Face,” with some well-known celebrities showing the effects. And, Beverly Stock, mother of the late Warrick “DJ Warras” Stock, joins the show to reflect on the loss of her son and the profound impact his life — and passing — has had on South Africans.
