What do you always take to peoples houses, cos you know if you ask for it its annoying?
10/20/2025
There are just some things you always take with you when you visit people, not because you’re extra, but because asking for it is just… awkward. It could be your own charger (because you know someone’s using the one in the lounge), your preferred drink, your blanket, or even your hot sauce. We’ve all learned the hard way that it’s easier to pack it than to ask. You don’t want to be that guest asking, “Do you maybe have…” every five minutes!

We all know that one kid who got sent home for doing something wild or maybe that kid was you!

Are you dreading having the conversation with your parents to tell them to stop driving because they are just too old?
10/15/2025
Let’s be honest – some people out there have no business being behind the wheel. From the ones who treat stop signs like suggestions, to those texting mid-drive, to the speedsters who think every road is a racetrack, it’s chaos out there. And lately, another question has been coming up: at what point should older drivers hang up their keys?
WE ALSO HAD A CHAT TO STAN BEZUIDENHOUT WHO IS A Transport Risk And Accident Specialist, Founder of Independent Bureau of Forensic Investigation
There is currently no law in South Africa setting an upper age limit for holding a driver’s license. Instead, the law emphasizes capacity - eyesight, reflexes, cognitive ability, and overall health - rather than age itself.
Some people in their 60s may already struggle to drive safely, while others remain capable well into their 90s. The real challenge, is the reluctance of elderly drivers to give up their independence, which often makes family interventions difficult.

Should you make kids sign an indemnity form for a kids’ party?
10/15/2025
Kids’ parties these days can feel like mini adventure parks from jumping castles and swimming pools to pony rides and obstacle courses. But as fun as it all sounds, it also comes with a bit of risk, and that’s why some parents are now asking: should we be making other parents sign an indemnity form?
An indemnity form is basically a safety disclaimer it says that while the host will do their best to keep everyone safe, they can’t be held responsible if something goes wrong.

What irrational thing were you banned from watching/having/listening to in your childhood?
10/14/2025
Some parents are up in arms about Demon Hunters saying it’s “too dark” or “too violent” for kids. But it’s got people talking about those random, irrational bans we all faced growing up.
Maybe your parents thought Harry Potter was witchcraft, Pokémon was “the devil’s work,” or The Simpsons was going to corrupt your manners. Some weren’t even allowed to have Coke or listen to Eminem!

If you can afford it, get your child that cosmetic treatment as soon as you can? Or not?
10/13/2025
We’re living in a time where kids grow up in front of cameras, every selfie, every TikTok, every school photo shared and scrutinized. So, when a child starts feeling self-conscious about a physical feature, maybe their teeth, skin, or nose – some parents are stepping in with something new: cosmetic treatments. Braces? Sure. But what about laser treatments for acne scars? Lip fillers? Or even ear pinning surgery? So, where’s the line? Are these “confidence boosters” actually helping, or are we feeding a cycle of never feeling good enough?

Who’s Looking After Your Mind While You Chase Those Exams? Principal at Bellavista School Alison Scott is in studio
10/10/2025
October 10th marks World Mental Health Day, and this year, the focus hits close to home for many teens – especially matriculants facing the pressure of final exams and big life decisions. For many young people, this time of year feels like a storm: sleepless nights, fear of failure, and the constant pressure to have it all figured out.
WE HAD A CHAT TO ALISON SCOTT - Executive Principal at Bellavista School
She has been in education for 28+ years, across all phases. Before joining Bellavista, she worked in mainstream schools (a former Model C school), then moved into independent/remedial education. Her roles included HOD (Head of Department) for Guidance. In 2009, she was appointed as Principal of Bellavista, and over time she has steered the school towards more innovative, research-based remedial and cognitive education programmes.
She has extensive experience in teaching across the board and is a very well respected principal in South Africa. Bellavista is a private remedial school, but they also host a number of training courses for educators, health professionals and parents on how to deal with all sorts of issues related to education - including dealing with anxiety in learners.

When was the last time you swapped out your toothbrush, sponge, or mattress?
10/6/2025
Sometimes, the little things we forget to swap out end up making the biggest difference. Dentists recommend replacing your toothbrush every 3 months because those frayed bristles stop doing their job. In the kitchen, sponges are bacteria magnets switch them out weekly to keep germs at bay. And when it comes to sleep, most mattresses lose their comfort and support after about 7 years, so replacing yours can be a real game changer.

You know the people who take things to your room at a hotel. What is the standing rule around tipping them?
10/6/2025
So here’s the thing: when you’re at a hotel and someone carries your bags up to the room, there’s an unspoken rule - you’re meant to tip. The going rate is about R20–R50 per bag here at home, or a couple of dollars overseas.
But not everyone loves the idea. Anele found this out on holiday in Kenya when the porter expected a tip, and she really wasn’t feeling it. So, do you always have to tip? Or is it okay to just say thanks and leave it at that?

Mandy Wiener on The Deal: Inside the Talks That Shaped South Africa’s Future
9/25/2025
From secret hotels to broken phones, missed meetings and even flying popcorn – Mandy Wiener’s The Deal: Inside the Talks that Shaped South Africa’s Future takes us behind the scenes of the 2024 Government of National Unity.
For the first time in 30 years, the ANC lost its majority, leaving just 14 days to strike a deal and elect a president. Wiener pulls back the political curtain to reveal the tense negotiations, back-channel talks and power struggles that shaped the GNU.Told with the pace of a thriller, The Deal shows how fragile alliances, whispered texts and late-night meetings decided the future of South Africa.
She’s one of South Africa’s most respected investigative journalists and bestselling authors, known for unpacking the stories that shape our democracy. From state capture to corruption, and now to the world of plea bargains and political compromise — Mandy Wiener is back with a brand-new book, The Deal. It’s a deep dive into how backroom agreements, political settlements, and negotiated justice continue to shape South Africa’s future. Mandy joins us to talk about her latest work and the impact these 'deals' have on our country.

What have you lost in transit?
9/25/2025
Mama I Made It hitmaker Cassper Nyovest said that he tried to send a gift using Uber Courier and the driver allegedly stole the gift and reported that it was returned. Uber Courier is a feature within the app that allows users to send packages in real time.
Cassper also claimed that it was an expensive gift he was trying to send to his friend. However, after this experience he will never use this feature on the app again. Take a look…

What’s your policy to send your sick kids back to school?
9/25/2025
We saw a post online that said: “My wife’s policy before sending sick kids back to school is that they can’t have a fever for at least 24 hours. If they are sick with a sore throat and a runny nose but no fever, you’re allowed to go to school.

Would it be wrong for refusing a cash deal after a rear-end and going straight to insurance?
9/23/2025
So, here’s the scenario: our producer Ryan’s wife was involved in a fender bender during the morning school drop-off. Another driver rear-ended her car. Right there at the scene, he begged her not to call the police and promised to settle it with cash.
Sounds simple enough – until Ryan called his panel beater friend who informed him that you only have 24 hours to report the accident to the police otherwise insurance won't pay out – and the other driver can basically refuse to pay.
Now here’s the debate: was she right to reject the “under-the-table” cash deal and go by the book, or is she the bad guy for not giving the driver a chance to honour his word?
we chat with CEO at Discovery Insure Robert Attwell for some insight

Helen Zille’s Joburg Comeback: Renewal, Hope, and Hard Questions.
9/22/2025
The DA has officially named Helen Zille as their 2026 Johannesburg Mayoral candidate. Born in Hillbrow, Zille says she’s coming home to fix a city in crisis — from broken roads and failing water to rubbish piling up.
Her campaign is all about restoring services, fighting corruption, and bringing accountability back to Joburg. But critics argue she’s out of touch and question whether a leader from Cape Town can really connect with Johannesburg’s challenges.
It’s shaping up to be one of the most heated local races yet — with Zille promising renewal, and rivals warning she’s the wrong fit.

When it comes to a mother-and-son dinner, who should attend: Biological mom or stepmom?
9/18/2025
We got a voice note from Sam. She says her child’s stepmom wants to attend the school’s mother-and-child dinner instead of her – but Sam’s not having it. She says, “I’m the real mom, I want to go.
So here’s the question: who should get that seat at the table — the biological mom, the stepmom,
