Anele and the Club on 947

Imagine you pull up to school to fetch your child, and before you’ve even stopped properly, they’re already saying, “Mom, please don’t park here!” They’re embarrassed by the family car. Maybe it’s old, maybe it’s got a few dents, or maybe it’s simply not the flashy car their friends are arriving in.

And then they hit you with, “Can’t we just get a new one?” Now you’re thinking… hold on, am I really expected to take on a new car payment because my child is worried about what their friends think?

If your child is embarrassed by the family car, would you actually buy a new one?

You’ve planned the birthday surprise, everyone has been sworn to secrecy, the cake is hidden, the WhatsApp group is called “DON’T TELL THEM!” and somehow the one person who was supposed to keep quiet is the one who ruins everything.

Maybe they accidentally mention the restaurant, leave the gift where it can be found, or just blurt out “So, are you excited for Saturday?” right in front of the person you’re surprising!

 Who’s the person in your family or friendship group who simply cannot keep a surprise a surprise?

There is a new scam every day and the scary part is that scammers are getting much better at making them sound believable. It’s not always an obvious “Congratulations, you’ve won a million rand!” message anymore.

Sometimes it’s someone claiming to be from your bank, your car dealership, a delivery company or even asking you seemingly harmless personal questions. You might get a message saying you’ve won R1,500 from a supermarket, a call claiming there’s a problem with your car and it needs to be collected, or someone asking questions that could actually help them access your accounts or identify you.

Your partner needs a document signed, they’re not around, and they say: “Just sign for me.” Harmless favour… or the moment you realise you’ve just been trusted with a little too much power? Have you ever forged your partner’s signature with their permission and was that the last time they ever asked you to do it?

Maybe you are like producer Ryan, where you forged your dad signature so much your mom let you sign documents when dad wasn’t around ??

Imagine you’re selling your house, you’ve got an open house, people are walking through the rooms, looking at the kitchen, checking out the garden… and then someone arrives with their DOG. Not because they’re moving in with the dog they’ve brought the dog along to view the property with them.

Now, is that completely reasonable? After all, if the dog is going to live there, maybe you want to know whether the property is suitable for your four-legged family member. But on the other hand, this isn’t a park or a pet-friendly café it’s someone else’s home, potentially with other people viewing it, and you have no idea how the dog is going to behave.

They came in as the first-ever duo to take on The Masked Singer South Africa and from the moment Sheep hit that stage, Mzansi was hooked. The performances had the energy, the rhymes were always on point, and the clues had our detectives going in completely different directions.

And when it was finally time to take the masks off, the guesses came flying! Somizi went with hip-hop couple Reason and Gigi Lamayne, while Sithelo and Skhumba had their own theories. Zee Nxumalo was convinced we were looking at Amapiano power couple Pabi Cooper and Focalistic.

But there was ONE detective who cracked the case J’Something, who correctly guessed Simphiwe Ngema and Tino Chinyani! So, the first-ever Masked Singer SA duo is officially unmasked… and judging by the reactions from J’Something and Somizi, it was definitely a little bittersweet.

And if you’ve somehow managed to miss the madness, The Masked Singer South Africa Season 3 is on SABC 2 every Saturday at 19:00, with repeats on SABC 1 on Thursdays at 21:00 and SABC 2 on Fridays at 13:30. You can also watch the latest season on SABC+.

A tweet from @90STALGIC has sparked a very specific kind of millennial nostalgia

That one movie your family happened to own on VHS when you were about 12 the movie you watched so many times that you knew every line, every scene and every song, even though, looking back now, it really wasn’t that good.

But that’s the thing about childhood you don’t remember the movie for its reviews or its Rotten Tomatoes score. You remember sitting in front of that TV, rewinding the tape, watching it for what felt like the hundredth time. It could have been a completely mediocre movie, but because it was YOUR movie, nobody was allowed to disrespect it.

Alakhe had a bit of a school emergency last week, he tore his pants at school and needed his mom, Anele, to bring him a new pair. So, naturally, he called his mom and got the rescue mission underway.

But that got Anele thinking about how different things were back in the day. Because if you were a kid and found yourself in a situation like that with no airtime, you couldn’t just pick up your phone and call your parents like Alakhe did.

You had to make a reverse call basically calling someone and asking them to accept the charges so that THEY pay for the call.

Someone has parked their car across your driveway, blocking you in and you’ve tried calling them, but they’re nowhere to be found. Then you notice something interesting: the keys are still inside the car.

So what do you do? Do you have the right to get into the car, start it and move it out of your driveway because it’s preventing you from leaving? Or, the moment you touch that car without the owner’s permission, are you putting yourself on the wrong side of the law?

And what if it’s an emergency? What if you need to get to work, fetch your child, or get someone to hospital? Does the fact that the car is illegally blocking your driveway give you any right to move it yourself?

Some of the most iconic movie moments are so memorable that you don’t even need to see the screen to know exactly what you’re watching.

Sometimes it’s a line, a conversation or even the way two characters interact that gives the whole movie away. Today, we’re putting that to the test. You’re going to hear a scene recreated from a famous movie, but we’re keeping the title under wraps.

Listen carefully to the dialogue, pick up on the clues and see if you can work out exactly which movie it comes from.

If you’ve been watching Mzansi Magic’s Nyala O…, you’ll know that these aren’t exactly the picture-perfect marriages they might look like from the outside.

The telenovela follows three women and three marriages, exploring what happens after the wedding when love, money, secrets, resentment, forgiveness and identity start putting those relationships to the test.

At the centre of one of those marriages is Kea Maponya, played by Mapaseka Koetle, and her husband Rhami Maponya, played by Motlatsi Mafatshe. Kea is a successful career woman who believes she has figured out the formula for a successful marriage, until she discovers a devastating secret about the man she has been married to for 15 years.

And then there’s Kea’s older sister Mapula, played by Tsholofelo Matshaba. Her marriage to Ernest is entering a completely different kind of crisis. She’s trying to maintain a certain lifestyle while financial secrets and questionable spending start catching up with her and Ernest is beginning to realise that there may be a lot more going on with their money than he knew.

Imagine scrolling through your phone and realising you have the personal number of someone famous.

Not their publicist. Not their agent. Their actual number. That’s the conversation doing the rounds after reports that Meghan Markle’s mobile number was allegedly leaked and shared among parents in a WhatsApp group connected to the school her children briefly attended.

And it got us thinking… Whose number do you have that other people would absolutely lose their minds over?

Maybe you’ve got a celebrity, a politician, a footballer, a musician, a billionaire or even just someone whose number you know is worth something because of who they are or what they can give you access to.

We received a voice note from Mrs Van Staden, a teacher at a primary school, who says her school is holding a colour-run fundraiser this Saturday and the teachers are expected to be there.

The problem? They’re not being paid for it. And that raises a very real question for teachers: when does your working week actually end?

Because teaching isn’t necessarily a “bell rings at 2pm, you go home” job. Teachers can be expected to attend parent meetings, sports events, cultural activities, school functions and other duties outside the formal school day. The official Personnel Administrative Measures actually recognise extra and co-curricular duties outside the formal school day, and say educators are expected to account for 1,800 actual working hours a year.

But what happens when that duty lands on a Saturday?

Sometimes your job follows you home not because you’re working after hours, but because you’ve somehow accumulated an entire stash of stuff from work!

Teachers always seem to have pens and whiteboard markers lying around. Doctors have stethoscopes and gloves. Nurses have hand sanitiser. Chefs have a collection of Tupperware and takeaway containers. Accountants have calculators, and photographers always seem to have spare SD cards.

And then there are those jobs where you end up collecting things without even realising it like accreditation tags, branded freebies or whatever your workplace seems to hand out!

From 1 April 2026, qualifying micro businesses with annual turnover of up to R2.3 million can opt into the system. The first R600,000 of turnover is taxed at 0%, meaning a qualifying business can make up to R600,000 in turnover without paying Turnover Tax on that amount. And it works differently from normal income tax: instead of taxing your profit, Turnover Tax is calculated on your turnover essentially the money your business receives from its business activities. So, for example, a business with taxable turnover of R900,000 would pay R3,000 in Turnover Tax not R3,000 every month, but R3,000 for the year.

The system is optional, and you have to apply to SARS if you qualify. There are also specific eligibility requirements, so not every small business automatically qualifies. It’s essentially SARS saying: if you’re a qualifying small business, there’s a simpler tax system available but you need to know about it and choose to use it.

Thabile interrupted our regular programming this morning with a heartbreaking dilemma. She’s looking after a family’s 17-year-old dog, Lucy, while they’re on holiday only to wake up and find that Lucy has passed away.

Now she’s stuck with the difficult question:does she tell the family immediately and risk ruining their holiday, or wait until they’re back and break the news then?

Some of the most iconic movie moments are so memorable that you don’t even need to see the screen to know exactly what you’re watching.

Sometimes it’s a line, a conversation or even the way two characters interact that gives the whole movie away. Today, we’re putting that to the test. You’re going to hear a scene recreated from a famous movie, but we’re keeping the title under wraps.

Listen carefully to the dialogue, pick up on the clues and see if you can work out exactly which movie it comes from.

Pineapple consistently delivered some of the biggest performances on The Masked Singer South Africa, leaving the Super Detectives guessing about the identity behind the mask.

While J’Something, Somizi and Sithelo Shozi all mentioned Brenden Praise’s name at different points, it was Sithelo who ultimately got it right.

After performing songs across pop, R&B, EDM and amapiano, Pineapple found himself in the Danger Zone alongside Chopsticks and Gogga. Gogga was saved by the judges, leaving Pineapple and Chopsticks to battle for a place in the semi-final. Pineapple ultimately received the fewest votes and was unmasked.

The clues pointed towards Brenden’s music career, faith, upbringing and even his time on Idols South Africa. Other clues included golden trophies, coffee, travelling, a cross and a football boot.

The football clue revealed one of the more surprising parts of Brenden’s story: at 13, he attended trials with Kaizer Chiefs but was overlooked after failing to produce his birth certificate.

In the end, Sithelo correctly identified the soulful singer, former Idols South Africa runner-up, Grammy nominee, producer and entrepreneur as the man behind the Pineapple mask.

There’s always that one call you’re waiting for the one where you keep checking your phone because you KNOW someone is supposed to call you.

Maybe it’s the call after a job interview or audition. Maybe you’re waiting for someone to confirm something. Maybe it’s a family member with news, someone you’ve been dating, or even a friend who said, “I’ll call you back.”

What call are you waiting for right now and what are you hoping they’re going to say?

A recent Labour Court judgment has raised an interesting question about returning to a workplace after a serious dispute with your employer.

The case involves former NSFAS budget accountant Zenobia Abrahams, who was dismissed after forwarding nine confidential work emails to her personal Gmail account. A CCMA commissioner later found her dismissal substantively unfair and ordered NSFAS to reinstate her with more than R1 million in back pay. NSFAS challenged that decision, and the Labour Court has now set the CCMA award aside and referred the matter back for a fresh arbitration.

But beyond the legal battle, it raises a very real workplace question: if you were fired by your employer and had to take the company to the CCMA to fight for your job, would you actually want to go back?

Even if the outcome went in your favour and you were offered your old position back, could you comfortably return to the same workplace, work under the same management and sit alongside the people involved in your dismissal?

Would you go back to a company that fired you or would you rather take the win and move on?

Residents in Durban’s Berea say weekend nightlife has become a serious problem, with excessive noise, traffic, overcrowding, litter and partygoers spilling into the surrounding residential streets.

One resident, who has lived in the area for more than 15 years, says the disruption has become so bad that she is now considering selling her home and leaving the area.

Ward 33 councillor Fran Kristopher is also demanding answers over what residents describe as a lack of Metro Police enforcement and response when they report problems. But it raises a bigger question: If you live in an area that becomes a popular nightlife hotspot, how much disruption should you be expected to tolerate?

Would you put up with the noise because you love your neighbourhood or would you eventually pack up and leave?

We all have that one person who is constantly trying to save electricity, water or money switching things off, reusing things and following little rules they swear make a difference.

But sometimes, when you actually think about these “saving tips”, they don’t make much sense. You might be saving electricity by doing one thing, while using more water or energy somewhere else.

So, we want to hear about your household’s saving hacks the little things people do because they believe they’re saving water, electricity or money.

Market Day is when kids get to turn their ideas into businesses and honestly, anything can be for sale! There’s the food everyone races to buychips, sweets, cupcakes, pancakes, burgers, slushies and whatever else is on the menu

Then there are the kids selling bracelets, games, crafts, activities, horse rides, quad-bike experiences and all sorts of creative ideas.

So we want to know from the kids: what is everyone actually spending their money on? Is it the food, the experiences, or that one really clever product that has everyone lining up?

Having children used to feel like one of those things that was simply part of the traditional life checklist: finish school, study or work, get married, buy a home and have kids. But is that checklist changing?

A recent News24 article looks at South Africa’s declining birth rate and asks whether parenthood is losing its place as an expected part of adult life. The latest Stats SA figures support the bigger trend: South Africa’s fertility rate has fallen from an average of 2.78 children per woman in 2008 to 2.12 in 2026, while recorded births have been declining since 2020.

But this doesn't mean South Africans have suddenly stopped having babies. The country still has a relatively young population and continues to grow. What is changing is how many children people are choosing to have and potentially when, or whether, they choose to become parents at all.

There are plenty of reasons people might be rethinking parenthood: the cost of raising children, housing, career ambitions, relationships, personal freedom and simply deciding that having children isn't part of the life they want.

Kenneth says his tenant called him in a panic because her unit was the only one without electricity. Trying to be a good landlord, he immediately called an electrician who charged a R1,250 call-out fee.

But before the electrician could even attend to the problem, the tenant called back to say she had figured it out: the DB board had tripped, and her electricity was back on.

Now Kenneth has told her that if the electrician won't refund the call-out fee, she needs to pay the R1,250. But she refuses, saying the fee isn't her responsibility.

So, who's wrong here? Should the landlord absorb the cost because it was his responsibility to sort out the electricity or should the tenant pay because the electrician was called out unnecessarily?

There’s a question doing the rounds on X from @sharm42453, and it’s one of those questions that makes you realise just how much your idea of a good gift changes as you get older.

When you’re younger, it’s all about the latest phone, sneakers, gaming consoles, clothes or whatever the thing is that everyone wants. But as you get older, your priorities start changing. Suddenly, the things that would genuinely make you happy aren’t necessarily expensive or flashy.

Maybe your perfect gift is a holiday, a weekend away, or someone paying for your next tank of petrol. Maybe it’s having your bills taken care of for a month, a day at the spa, or even something as simple as getting a full night’s sleep without being disturbed!

The latest celebrity to be revealed on The Masked Singer South Africa is none other than SAFTA-winning actor Tumisho Masha!

The detectives were all over the place, with guesses ranging from Sjava and S’dumo Mtshali to Sizwe Dhlomo and DJ Sabby. But Detective Sithelo Shozi got it right, correctly identifying Tumisho before his mask came off.

Tumisho, known for shows like Isidingo, Saints and Sinners and The Wild, also has major international credits, including Beyond Borders alongside Angelina Jolie.

The Leopard’s recurring mirror clues also had a meaning, Tumisho says they represented self-reflection and staying true to yourself after years in the entertainment industry.

If you missed it, The Masked Singer South Africa Season 3 rebroadcasts Thursday at 9PM on SABC 1 and Friday at 1:30PM on SABC 2. The next episode premieres Saturday at 7PM on SABC 2, where another celebrity will be unmasked.

Producer Ryan was telling us about a bring-and-share his mom went to and apparently, she arrived with BOILED EGGS! The second Ryan told the story, it got Frankie’s blood boiling!

Because when you’re told it’s a bring-and-braai, there are certain things you expect people to pull up with… meat, rolls, salads, garlic bread but BOILED EGGS?!

What has someone turned up with that made you think, “Why did you even bother?”

Parents evening is supposed to be the moment where you find out how your child is doing, the good, the bad and the things you might need to work on.

But sometimes you sit down with the teacher and suddenly discover something that has apparently been happening for MONTHS… and you’re thinking, “Wait… why am I only hearing about this now?

Maybe your child has been struggling in a subject, constantly getting into trouble, being picked on, sitting alone, or regularly ending up in the sick bay and nobody thought to give you a heads-up.

Was there something happening at school that had you asking, “How did nobody think to call me?”

You knew you were NOT allowed to touch it… but somehow, you knew exactly what was in there.

Maybe it was that dusty bottle of whisky that had been there since 1998, the fancy brandy nobody was allowed to open, Amarula that only came out when guests arrived, or that random bottle your parents received as a gift and kept forever.

And there was ALWAYS that one bottle that seemed to survive every Christmas, birthday and family gathering. What was the one bottle that was permanently living in your parents’ liquor cabinet when you were growing up?

A listener is going through a breakup with their partner but now they’ve hit a very important problem… WHO GETS THE TV?

Their partner says they should keep it, but our listener says the TV is rightfully theirs because they’re the one who has been paying the TV licence! So, does paying the TV licence give you dibs on the actual TV? 😂

When a relationship ends, how do you decide who keeps the stuff you bought together?

Kevin wasn’t feeling well on Friday morning, so his mom let him stay home from school.

But by the afternoon, he was feeling much better and with a big athletics race coming up, Kevin decided to head to training to get his run in. There was just ONE problem… his Afrikaans teacher was also at athletics and caught him!

Now she’s not impressed and wants to set up a meeting with his mom. Kevin reckons Auntie Anele needs to help him explain himself before things get serious.

Your partner has a business and you’re supportive, you really are… but then you see them giving their friends, family or colleagues a discount and suddenly you’re questioning everything!

Because why are THEY getting the friends-and-family price… while you’re paying full price?!

Maybe it’s the friend who never supports the business but always wants a discount, the family member who expects everything for free, or that one person who somehow always gets “special treatment.”

Who does your partner give discounts to that absolutely irritates the hell out of you?

A listener has been living with his girlfriend for nine months while waiting for his new home to be built. They always agreed it was temporary but now his place is ready, and he’s ready to move out.

The problem? His girlfriend isn’t on the same page. She feels differently about the situation, and he’s worried that moving out could put their relationship under pressure.

Have you ever moved in with a partner temporarily, only to realise you had very different ideas about when or if you’d move out?

What happens when you fall out with the person you chose to be your child’s godparent?

That’s the situation Australian radio host Kyle Sandilands could face after his friendship with Jackie O Henderson broke down. Jackie is the godmother of his son, Otto, so now there’s a bigger question: can you actually remove someone as your child’s godparent?

And if you could, should you? Would you put your personal fallout aside because of your child or once the relationship is over, is the godparent role over too?

There are very few artists in this country who can say they’ve genuinely changed the game, and Cassper Nyovest is one of them.

From Fill Up to selling out some of the biggest stages in the country, from “Doc Shebeleza” and “Tito Mboweni” to building a brand that goes way beyond music, Cassper has spent more than a decade making moments that South Africans don’t just remember; we sing them word for word.

He’s been celebrated, criticised, counted out, and come back swinging. He’s given us hits, headlines, iconic performances and more than a few things to talk about.

And just recently, he stepped onto the SAMA stage as host of SAMA32 another chapter in a career that refuses to stand still. Today, we get to sit down with one of the biggest names South African hip-hop has ever produced.

A retired couple has sparked a family feud after buying their 32-year-old son a small house to help him get a fresh start.

The son has struggled to find direction and isn’t financially stable, so his parents say they simply wanted to give him the support he needed.

But their 27-year-old daughter is furious. She’s married, has two children and has worked hard to build a stable life independently. She says her parents have always gone the extra mile for her brother because he “needs help” while she’s been left to figure things out on her own.

Now she’s keeping her distance, accusing her parents of rewarding failure while overlooking success. The parents, however, say it’s not about favoritism,  their son simply needed more help.

The Masked Singer South Africa has finally revealed the celebrity behind one of its most talked-about costumes and it was none other than Lasizwe Dambuza!

The digital superstar had viewers guessing as Sushi, keeping his identity under wraps while showing off his performance skills.

Lasizwe says being on the show allowed him to step outside his comfort zone and have fun without the pressure of people knowing it was him.

Sushi has officially been unmasked and Mzansi got Lasizwe!

We spend so much of our lives at work, but with the cost of living constantly going up, some employers are doing more than just paying a salary, they’re finding ways to make everyday life a little easier for their employees.

Maybe your company helps with your petrol or transport costs. Maybe there’s a travel allowance, a cellphone or data allowance, subsidised medical aid, gym benefits or even lunch at work.

Some workplaces offer flexible working hours, allowing you to avoid peak-hour traffic and save on transport. Others provide childcare assistance, staff accommodation or transport home if you work late. And then there are the companies that try to help when times get tough, through bonuses, cost-of-living increases, financial wellness programmes or salary adjustments.

So today we want to know: what does your employer do that actually makes your life easier?

More workplaces are using TikTok, Reels, and social media to promote the business — but what happens when employees don’t want to be on camera?

One employee says they’ve repeatedly made it clear they’re uncomfortable appearing in company videos, but now they feel like they’re being left out of team activities because they’ve said no.

And that raises the question: When did being a good employee mean being willing to dance, lip-sync or perform for your company’s TikTok?

After keeping the detectives and viewers guessing, King Pie was finally unmasked as comedian, musician and Radio Raps star, Rikus de Beer!

Rikus had the panel completely bamboozled as they tried to work out who was hiding behind the massive pastry costume, with guesses ranging from cricket legend AB de Villiers and kwaito icon Kabelo Mabalane to Springbok assistant coach Mzwandile Stick and comedian Darren Maule.

J’Something eventually settled on AB de Villiers, while Somizi went with Kabelo Mabalane and Skhumba backed Mzwandile Stick. Sithelo, meanwhile, returned to her earlier guess of Darren Maule – meaning none of the detectives managed to crack the real identity.

And after weeks of clues, costumes and performances, the mystery was finally solved: King Pie was Rikus de Beer, better known as Radio Raps!

Kgomotso and her friend were both in the running for the same promotion at work. Her friend got the job, and while Kgomotso was genuinely happy for her, that changed when she found out why she wasn’t chosen.

Apparently, her friend told their managers that Kgomotso was actively looking for another job. Now Kgomotso is left wondering: Was that really a reason to overlook her for the promotion? And more importantly, why would her friend tell their managers that in the first place?

If you were in Kgomotso’s shoes, would you see this as a betrayal or was her friend simply giving the managers information that could affect their decision?

Tom is ready to marry the woman he loves, but there’s one problem, her father wants them to wait another year before getting married.

Tom’s father-in-law-to-be says he doesn’t think they should rush into marriage and wants them to give it another year. But should your partner’s parents get a say in when you get married? Or, if you’re both ready, should the decision be entirely yours?

We got this voice note from Lerato, who ordered a birthday cake for her son Kumo. When she went to collect it, she realised the bakery had spelled his name incorrectly. She says she would never have given them the wrong spelling and was upset that the bakery refused to fix the cake.

And while Lerato’s frustration is understandable, it got us thinking about something bigger: how do we teach our kids to deal with disappointment when things don’t go their way?

Because life is full of moments where you don't get exactly what you wanted — the wrong cake, losing a game, not being chosen for the team, missing out on something your friends are doing, or simply hearing the word “no.” Do you let your child feel the disappointment, or do you immediately try to fix it

A specific batch of YAZ PLUS was found to have a packaging error, where the hormone-containing and hormone-free tablets were in the wrong order. Instead of 24 active tablets and 4 hormone-free tablets, some packs had 24 hormone-free tablets and just 4 active ones.

Working for a family business can be a completely different experience from working for a big company. On the one hand, it can feel more personal everyone knows each other, there can be more flexibility, and you might genuinely feel like you’re part of the family.

But then there’s the other side… family drama, blurred boundaries, favouritism, arguments at the dinner table that somehow continue at work on Monday, and being expected to “just help out” because you’re family.

Maybe you work for your parents, your partner’s family, your siblings or even a family friend and you’ve got a story about what happens when business and family get mixed together.

Every school has its own version of a leadership body, whether it’s called prefects, learners’ council, student representative council, RCL, or something completely different.

But how do you actually get there? Is it based on academic performance, good behaviour, popularity, teacher recommendations, an election, an interview or a combination of all of these?

And once you get the title, what does it really mean to be a school leader? Were you elected by your classmates, chosen by teachers, or did you have to prove you were leadership material?

We want to hear about the different ways schools decide who gets to wear the badge and represent the rest of the learners.

Marie from Silverton is dealing with a difficult family situation. Her brother is getting married, and when Marie looked through the guest list, she noticed someone she definitely did not expect to see her ex.

The problem is, Marie says this man hurt her badly, and she’s struggled to move on from what happened between them. So naturally, she asked her brother why he would invite him to such an important family occasion.

Her brother’s response was simple: “He’s my friend, and I’m inviting him to my wedding.” Now Marie is caught between wanting her brother to understand how uncomfortable and painful this would be for her, and understanding that it is ultimately his wedding and his guest list.

But should family come first in a situation like this?

Sometimes you don’t need a reminder on your phone, the thing is sitting right in front of you every single day.

Yesterday, Felo told us how her sister-in-law’s child broke her recliner, and when Felo eventually replaced the damaged seat, her sister-in-law was upset about it. Now, every time Felo sits in that recliner, she’s reminded of the whole situation.

And it got us thinking: what do you have in your everyday life that instantly reminds you of something that happened?

Maybe it’s a scar, a photo, a piece of furniture, a gift from someone you no longer speak to, an old car, or even something in your house that brings back a memory every single time you see it.

There are just some things that your grandmother made better than anyone else ever could.

Maybe it was her Sunday lunch, her pancakes, her dumplings, her curry, her vetkoek or even something as simple as a cup of tea. And no matter how many times you’ve tried to recreate it, it just never tastes quite the same.

Today, we’re celebrating those legendary recipes and dishes that have been passed down through the family, the ones that instantly take you back to your grandmother’s kitchen.

Some people have absolutely no problem showering at someone else’s house. If there’s a bathroom and a shower available, they’re comfortable using it.

But for others, showering in someone else’s home is a hard no. It can feel too personal or uncomfortable, especially when it comes to using someone else’s bathroom, towels, soap and other toiletries.

After keeping the detectives and viewers guessing, Spinach was finally chopped and unmasked as rap icon and “king of zef” Jack Parow.

Jack had the panel scrambling as they tried to work out who was hiding behind the elaborate green Spinach costume, with guesses ranging from Bryan Habana and Clint Brink to Benni McCarthy and YoungstaCPT.

But it wasn’t just the identity that had everyone talking – Spinach’s clues were just as wild as the costume! From his references to high-school rugby and his childhood pet parrot to his signature Parow Brandy and a mysterious “keto” birdseed clue, there were plenty of hints pointing towards Jack.

Detective J’Something eventually had several aha moments, connecting the parrot clue, the brandy reference and Spinach’s love of rapping. His final guess? Jack Parow – and for the first time this season, J’Something was spot-on!

And after weeks of clues, costumes and performances, the mystery was finally solved: Spinach was Jack Parow! Despite the intense costume, the rapper said he had an incredible time under the Mask and walked away with a newfound appreciation for the professionals who work in elaborate costumes.

A listener says she was visiting a friend over the weekend when her friend’s child asked to borrow her phone to play games. She handed it over, but while playing, the child dropped the phone and smashed the screen.

She took her iPhone 16 to Vodacom and was quoted R7,000 for a screen replacement. But now there’s a problem: her friend refuses to pay, saying she believes it’s actually the listener’s fault for handing the child the phone in the first place.

So, where does the responsibility fall? Is it on the parent because their child damaged someone else’s property, or did the listener accept the risk by giving the child her phone?

Born in KwaZulu-Natal, Nokx has built an impressive international career, spending 11 years at London’s acclaimed Rosewood London, where she became Head Pie Maker and Senior Chef. She was also named one of Jay Rayner’s Rising Stars in 2022.

Now she’s celebrating the release of her debut cookbook, The South African Cookbook, which features 90 recipes inspired by the flavours, food and memories of home, from bunny chow and bobotie to melktert and boerewors rolls.

And she’s been busy bringing the book to life in South Africa. This week she returned to KZN for a four-hands dinner with Chef Johannes Richter at The LivingRoom at Summerhill, followed by her Johannesburg book launch at Exclusive Books Rosebank with The Lazy Makoti.

She’ll then head to Cape Town for a Women’s Month lunch and book launch with Studio H and Hannerie Visser, before another four-hands dinner with Chef Wesli Charls at Cape Grace later this month.

There’s something so strange about driving past a place where you used to spend your weekends and realising that the nightclub you once knew has completely disappeared.

The spots where we dressed up, stood in queues, blew R800 on a night out and promised our parents we were “sleeping at a friend’s house” are now dentists, clinics, Woolies, furniture shops and restaurants.

Ftv in Fourways is now a Woolies, Cofi is now a furniture shop, and Vacca Matta has become a Thai spa, which, as Thembekile pointed out, technically still offers a “happy ending.” Then there’s Liquid Chefs… a name that instantly brings back memories for anyone who was out in Joburg during that era.

It’s basically a reminder that Joburg nightlife has changed dramatically but the memories of those places are still very much alive.

Netflix’s The Last House follows a family who find themselves trapped inside their home during a terrifying and increasingly dangerous situation. With nowhere safe to go and danger waiting outside, their house becomes both their shelter and their prison.

The movie got Anele thinking: if you were stuck inside your own home and couldn’t leave no shops, no takeaways, no deliveries: how long could you actually survive on the food you already have?

Would you have enough for a few days? A week? A month? Or would you be finished by Friday?

There’s a hilarious babysitting story doing the rounds from Instagram user @angi.jamz.

She says she was booked to babysit until 5PM, so naturally, that’s the time she planned to pack up and leave. But then the parents messaged her to say they wouldn’t be coming home until 2AM!

Angi told them she couldn’t stay that late and would have to leave at the agreed time. That’s when the parents hit her with: “We were telling you, not asking you!”

And that has sparked the BIG question: If someone books you to babysit until 5PM, can they just tell you they’re coming home at 2AM  or do they need to actually ASK if you’re available?

After keeping the detectives and viewers guessing, Koeksister was finally unmasked as comedian and actress Tumi Morake on The Masked Singer South Africa.

Tumi had the panel scrambling as they tried to work out who was hiding behind the elaborate Koeksister costume, with plenty of guesses thrown around before the mask finally came off.

But it wasn’t just the identity that had everyone talking that Koeksister suit was a whole production! From the giant South African sweet-treat design to performing and moving around in such an elaborate costume, Tumi certainly committed to the character.

And after weeks of clues, costumes and performances, the mystery was finally solved: Koeksister was Tumi Morake! The Masked Singer South Africa airs Saturdays on SABC 2.

Residents at The Parks Lifestyle Apartments in Fourways have raised eyebrows after bright red notices were placed on apartment doors when rent is overdue.

The notices are hard to miss, meaning anyone walking past, your neighbours, visitors, even delivery drivers, can see that you're behind on your payments. Some say it's an effective way to get tenants' attention.

After all, rent is a contractual obligation, and landlords have a right to recover money owed. Others believe it's public shaming. They argue that financial struggles are personal, and putting a notice on someone's front door crosses a line by exposing their situation to everyone around them.

So, this morning we want to know...Are apartment complexes allowed to do this?

There’s a contestant on the current season of Married at First Sight Mzansi who’s only 24 years old, and it's sparked a massive debate online. The reality show pairs complete strangers who meet for the very first time... at the altar, before getting married. Season 3 is currently airing on Mzansi Magic and has once again got everyone talking.

One post on X summed up the internet's reaction perfectly: "Going to Married at First Sightwhile you're 24 is peak giving up. Like... go to groove or something."

Brutal... but it does raise an interesting question. At what age do you think it's actually okay to settle down? Is 24 too young to be saying, "I'm ready for marriage," or if you've found your person, does age really not matter?

Maybe you got married at 23 and you're still happily together. Or maybe you waited until your 40s and you're glad you did. We want to hear your story.

You packed your bags for a fresh start... but did you end up wishing you'd stayed put? Maybe your parents moved the family to a new town. Maybe you chased your dream job in another city. Or perhaps university took you hundreds of kilometres away from everything you knew.

Sometimes it turns out to be the best decision of your life. You find new friends, new opportunities, even love. But other times... you spend every day wondering, "Why did I ever move here?"

So we want to know: Where did you move to because of school, work, or your parents... and did you regret it? What happened?

We often know our kids' favourite songs, the artists they love, and every lyric they play on repeat... but how well do they know us? If you asked your child, "What's my favourite song?" would they know the answer instantly, or would they have absolutely no clue?

Maybe it's because we spend so much time listening to their music in the car, or maybe we've never shared the songs that shaped our own lives. That one track that reminds you of your first love, your university days, your wedding, or simply makes you turn the volume all the way up every single time.

So, here's the question: Do your kids know your favourite song? If they do, what is it? And if they don't... what does that say about how much of ourselves we actually share with them? We'd love to hear your stories this morning!

Last week on the show we were speaking about hotels in Vegas who give you dinner vouchers in exchange for not cleaning your room, and we briefly mentioned a side conversation...

The second you check into a hotel, do you unpack everything into the drawers and hang your clothes up like you've moved in? Or do you leave everything in your suitcase, digging through it every morning because you're only there for a few days anyway?

So, where do you fall? Do you fully settle in the moment you get your room key, or are you a proud "live out of the bag" traveller?

We received a voice note from someone who wants to remain anonymous, so let's call her Pamela.

Pamela says she's feeling completely trapped. A while ago, she lent her boyfriend R120,000 to help him pay the deposit on a car. Since then, he's been paying her back R1,000 a month.

But now she's discovered that he's been cheating on her. She says she wants to end the relationship immediately... but if she walks away, she's terrified she'll never see the rest of her money again.

So, here's the question...Do you stay in the relationship until the debt is paid off, or do you cut your losses, leave, and deal with the money later? What would you do if you were Pamela?

Olympic swimming legend Chad le Clos now has a smoothie at Nu called The Chad le Clos, while Drikus du Plessis has his own burger at Hennie's.

If you've opened X, switched on the TV or listened to the news over the past few weeks, chances are you've heard about the Madlanga Commission.

Today, we are giving you a 101 update for those of you who know ZERO about it...The commission was established by President Cyril Ramaphosa after explosive allegations by KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Lt-Gen Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi, who claimed there had been political interference, corruption and criminal infiltration within South Africa's police, intelligence and justice systems.

The inquiry, chaired by retired Constitutional Court Justice Mbuyiseli Madlanga, is now tasked with getting to the bottom of those claims.

Let's start with one of the biggest questions that's come up is: Why was the Political Killings Task Team shut down? 

One of Lt-Gen Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi's biggest claims is that the Political Killings Task Team was shut down because it was getting too close to exposing powerful criminal syndicates and the people allegedly protecting them. He told the commission the unit was delivering results not failing and believes its disestablishment was meant to derail sensitive investigations. That's now one of the key issues the commission is trying to determine.

After weeks of keeping both the detectives and viewers guessing, Protea was finally unmasked as SAFTA Award-winning actress Shannon Esra.

The detective panel was completely off the mark, throwing out names like Moonchild, Sho Madjozi and Khutso Theledi but not one of them guessed Shannon.

Speaking after the reveal, Shannon admitted that keeping her identity a secret was one of the hardest parts of the show, saying it sometimes felt like she was lying to the people closest to her. She also revealed performing inside the elaborate costume meant remembering one very important thing... to breathe!

The Masked Singer South Africa airs Saturdays at 7 pm on SABC 2.

Who says a flower girl has to be a little girl? Traditionally, flower girls are between 3 and 8 years old... but there's no actual rule. These days, couples are ripping up the wedding rulebook – grandmothers, best friends, grown men and even the bride's dad have all taken a turn tossing petals down the aisle!

So, where do you draw the line? Is there an age where you're officially too old to be a flower girl, or is it the couple's wedding and they can choose whoever they want?

Would you keep it traditional, or would you happily watch your 50-year-old aunt steal the show?

A hotel in Las Vegas is giving guests a choice: if you agree to skip having your room cleaned during your stay, they'll reward you with a free food and drink voucher worth around $10 that’s about R 180. It's part of an initiative to save water, energy and housekeeping costs. So, would you give up daily room cleaning for a free meal, or is a freshly cleaned hotel room something you wouldn't compromise on?

The offer: Voluntary green programs or "skip housekeeping" choices.

The value: Typically a $10 (R180) daily food/beverage credit or resort credit.

Kids see the world differently, and sometimes the names they come up with make way more sense than the real ones! One little one reckons a cream doughnut should actually be called a "cream hotdog," while another thinks pancakes deserve the name "rollies."

It got us thinking… if kids were in charge of naming everyday things, what would they come up with? From food and animals to toys and household items, what funny or clever names would your child give them?

Yesterday, Anele had the shock of her life when a porcupine turned up at her house.The unexpected visitor sparked a huge conversation on the show, with listeners sharing what they believe it means when certain animals appear at your home.

That got us thinking... South Africa is full of fascinating beliefs and superstitions about animals. Depending on your culture or family, an owl, a snake, a praying mantis, a black cat or even a porcupine can be seen as a message from the ancestors, a warning, or a sign of good or bad luck.

So, today we want to know... what animal beliefs did you grow up with? What does your culture or family believe certain animals bring, and where do those beliefs come from?

You've finally bought your dream home, but now the questions start rolling in: "So... how much did you pay?"

You dodge the question, saying it's private, but your family insists they're just curious. Some think you're being secretive, while others believe your finances are nobody else's business. So, are you wrong for keeping the price of your house to yourself, even from family?

Cindy's friend went on a trip with her husband... She is a doctor. On the flight they say: "Is there a doctor onboard", she waits a bit, then goes to check, she spends the entire flight in the gully with this person. Gets no compensations for the business class flight that she couldn’t use... Why doesn’t the airline carry their own doctor.

Anele had the shock of her life yesterday when she found a porcupine wandering around her house. Security was called to remove it... but here's the problem: they left without saying whether they'd actually caught it. So now she's wondering... is there still a porcupine hiding somewhere on the property?

That got us thinking... across South Africa, different cultures have very different beliefs about animals that unexpectedly appear at your home. For some, it's nothing more than nature doing its thing. For others, it's a warning, a message from the ancestors, a sign of good luck... or even bad luck. A porcupine, in particular, carries all sorts of meanings depending on who you ask.

Your phone lights up with a message from someone you haven't spoken to in 20 years. It's not a reunion. It's not a catch-up. It's an apology. "I've been meaning to say this for years... I'm sorry." Maybe they bullied you at school. Maybe they humiliated you in front of the class. Maybe they did something they've never quite forgiven themselves for. After all this time, they've decided they owe you an explanation.

No one saw this one coming on The Masked Singer South Africa! Travel content creator Popi Sibiya was revealed as the celebrity behind Pap & Wors, leaving the detective panel completely stumped.

Despite clues about her engineering degree, big family and life-changing career switch, detectives Somizi, J'Something, Sithelo Shozi and guest panellist Jason Goliath guessed everyone from Ayanda Thabethe and Anele Zondo to Candice Modiselle, but not a single one landed on Popi.

The episode also introduced the show's first-ever masked duo, Sheep, while Gogga, Koeksister and Pap & Wors battled it out on stage. In the end, Pap & Wors was sent home, where Popi admitted she'd loved every minute of the experience. The Masked Singer South Africa airs Saturdays at 7pm on SABC 2.

Anele was getting ready for her Lotto broadcast when someone working on her face asked for advice about getting gastric bypass surgery. The woman assumed Anele had also had the procedure because of her weight loss.

She says it caught her completely off guard. Now, here's the question...If someone assumes you've had surgery because of your "glow-up"... is that actually a compliment?

Are they saying, "Wow, you look incredible!" Or is it an insult because they're basically saying, "There's no way you achieved that naturally."It's not just about weight-loss surgery either. People assume others have had Botox, lip fillers, veneers, hair transplants, BBLs... all because they look different. So where do you stand?

Kids and notifications: Should we normalise "call or message bombing"? You send one text... then another... then three missed calls later they're finally replying!

Have constant notifications made us expect instant responses? Is "call or message bombing" just how we communicate now, or is it becoming too much? How long is it acceptable to leave someone on read before they start blowing up your phone?

For most of us, our pets aren't "just animals" they're family. So when they get sick or injured, the question becomes... how much is too much?

A trip to the vet can quickly turn into X-rays, scans, blood tests, surgery, specialists, ICU and medication. Before you know it, you're staring at a bill worth tens of thousands of rand.
