Tax season is coming, and SARS has a new boss. In this edition of Pap and Politics, Thabo Baloyi speaks to Dr Johnstone Makhubu, the new SARS Commissioner, about making tax less terrifying, chasing the illicit economy, closing the tax gap, and what young workers, freelancers, side-hustlers and first-time taxpayers need to know. Less panic.

Joining us now is one of the entrants into the 5 Breakfast Theme Song Search, Ethan Ramiah.
