Could you survive for months in the wilderness with absolutely nothing but a few tools and your own thoughts? On this episode of Afternoons with Zweli, we’re talking about the reality TV phenomenon that has everyone gripped: Alone.

With a massive R10 million grand prize on the line, contestants are dropped into the most brutal environments on Earth with zero human contact. But it’s not just the starvation or the wildlife that gets them, it’s the silence. Zweli puts herself in their boots, questioning how any of us would fare without our phones, our favorite shows, or even a simple conversation for weeks on end. We dive into the psychology of solitude and ask the 947 family: At what point would you tap out? Is the money worth the mental toll, or are some of us just not built for the quiet?

Spend weekday afternoons with Zweli. He keeps you in the loop with everything from music and movies to sport and pop culture.

We’ve all done it, the "clunk" on the roof as you pull out of the driveway! On this episode of Afternoons with Zweli, we’re diving into the absolute chaos of neighborhood WhatsApp groups to share the most hilarious "left-on-the-car" stories.

It’s a massive day for the 947 family on News It or Lose It! First up, winter is coming... to a cinema near you. We’re breaking down the news that Warner Bros. is developing a "Dune-sized" Game of Thrones movie focused on Aegon the Conqueror, set 300 years before the Iron Throne was ever a thing. Is the world ready for a big-screen Westeros?

 

In music news, we’re decoding the cryptic emojis from The Weeknd, who seems to be teasing a fifth (yes, fifth!) collaboration with Ariana Grande. Plus, Harry Styles gets vulnerable with Zane Lowe in a brand-new interview about his latest album and his changing social life.

We’ve all been there: the heart-pounding moment you see your mom’s name flash on your phone while you’re exactly where you told her you weren't. On this episode of Afternoons with Zweli, we’re taking a hilarious, cringeworthy trip back to our teenage years.

Zweli and Noluthando open up their "burn books" to share the wildest lies they ever told their parents from "study sessions" that were actually spring break parties to the elaborate alibis that fell apart the second they walked through the front door. We dive into the adrenaline of teenage rebellion and the disastrous consequences that followed when the truth finally came out. But it’s not just about the laughs; we’re also talking about that turning point when we realized the weight of our actions and the value of earned trust. Grab a snack and get ready for a trip down memory lane that will have you saying, "I can’t believe I survived my youth!"

It was the elimination that no one saw coming! On this episode of Afternoons with Zweli, we sit down with Ali Sonday following his dramatic exit from MasterChef South Africa.

Ali takes us back to the moment he wowed the judges with his innovative reimagined potato samosa, a win that set the bar for the entire season. We talk through the intensity of the "Last Supper" challenge, the importance of time management under the ticking clock, and how he stayed true to his culinary roots even when the pressure was at boiling point. But it’s not all about the savory, Ali reveals the one thing that truly keeps him up at night: a hidden, burning passion for baking desserts! Whether you’re a fan of the show or just love a story about finding your voice, this is an interview filled with heart, heat, and heritage.

Lawsuits, lunch-barrows, and laundry! On this episode of Afternoons with Zweli, we’re asking: "When is it time to take the family to court?"

We kick off with a mind-blowing story from China where a 10-year-old boy is legally suing his father for blowing his life savings on a lavish second wedding. But the drama doesn't stop there—the 947 family called in with some "only in Joburg" stories that will leave you stunned. We talk to a woman whose boyfriend broke her washing machine (after letting his other girlfriend use it!) and a listener who is ready to serve her uncle papers for his wild spending habits. It’s an emotional, hilarious, and high-stakes look at accountability and the thin line between family bonds and legal battles.

It’s the debate that’s splitting the 947 family right down the middle! On this episode of Afternoons with Zweli, we’re asking the uncomfortable question: If you’re visiting a city where family lives, are you obligated to see them?

Zweli and Noluthando dive into the deep end of family dynamics, exploring why some of us feel an overwhelming sense of guilt for staying "incognito," while others argue that avoiding family drama is the ultimate form of self-care. We hear from listeners who have successfully hidden their trips from the relatives, and others who believe that "showing up" is a non-negotiable sign of respect. Are you team "Family First" or team "Keep It Private"? Join the conversation as we unpack the emotional rollercoaster of coming home.
