Imagine this: your parents are divorced, and while you’re trying to maintain a relationship with both of them, one parent — in this case, your mom — constantly talks down about the other. It’s uncomfortable, it’s hurtful, and it puts you in the middle of something you never asked to be in.

So how do you handle it? How do you respectfully tell your parent, “Hey, I love you, but this is not okay”? And most importantly, how do you protect your mental and emotional space without adding fuel to the fire?

We got a voice note from Unathi: 

“Hi guys, so my parents are divorced. But my mom bad mouths my dad so much when I’m around her. How do I tell her to stop?”

We also spoke to Psychologist Megan Tucker had a chat with us about this. If you would like to reach her, here are her details:

There are days when life feels like too much – when the noise of responsibilities, the weight of expectations, and the endless to-do lists pile up until you just need a moment to breathe. Maybe you're a parent who pulls into the driveway and lets the car run for 30 extra minutes, just sitting there in the quiet. Maybe you detour on the way home to a local ice cream shop, not because you need the sugar, but because you need something—a small joy, a break, a reminder that you still exist outside of the roles you play.

Bradley Nkoana's journey to Olympic silver and World U20 bronze is a powerful testament to resilience, determination, and the unwavering support of his family. Here's a deeper look into the challenges he faced and overcame.

Bradley's path to success was marred by significant obstacles. The COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 disrupted his training, leading to an 18-month hiatus from competitive athletics. 

Beyond physical injuries, Bradley faced profound personal challenges. At the age of 11, he lost his mother to breast cancer. Her passing left a significant void in his life. Before her death, she entrusted Bradley with the responsibility of caring for his younger brother. This promise became a guiding force in his life. Bradley credits his father and grandparents for their unwavering support, helping him navigate the complexities of adolescence and athletics.

🥈 Olympic Glory at 19

In August 2024, at just 19 years old, Bradley achieved one of the pinnacles of his career by winning a silver medal in the 4x100m relay at the Paris Olympics. This accomplishment was especially poignant given his previous injuries and the challenges he had faced. Reflecting on the achievement, Bradley expressed immense pride, stating, "I'm very proud of myself and I want to dedicate this to my mother."

Anele's Story time:

A friend of mine went to the World Cup in Paris and was only meant to go for a week, and when South Africa made it into the final he managed to buy tickets, and then told his wife he is extending his trip; his wife said ''No Sir' come home we'll watch the final here. So the question here is...

Would A wife be wrong for telling her husband to come back home after he decided to extend his holiday to attend the Rugby World Cup Final??

Hey Joburg! We're throwing it back—waaay back—to the early 2000s! Today, we’re diving into the words and slang that made you the coolest kid on the block 20 years ago. Remember when everything was "kiff" or when someone super stylish was just "phat" (pretty hot and tempting, of course)? Back then, if something was awesome, it was "rad", "sick", or even "wicked". Your bestie was your "chommie", and if things were getting out of hand, someone would shout, "Eish, my bru!"

We want the kids of today to sprinkle some retro flavour into their chats. Let’s revive the golden lingo of our youth—before TikTok trends and Instagram filters took over. Call in or hit us up on socials: What slang did you and your friends use back in the day? Were you the "OG" of saying "whatever, loser" or "talk to the hand"?

Let’s bring the vocab of the Y2K era back to the streets of Jozi!

Have you ever owned something so rare, so priceless, that it feels like a secret superpower? Maybe a signed copy of your favorite book… or a piece of history in your hands—like a Nelson Mandela signature.  Maybe it’s a letter from a Queen Elizabeth. These things—they’re irreplaceable. They're personal treasures that carry stories, legacy, and identity. So lets ask you: What’s your Mandela signature? What do you own that’s truly one-of-a-kind?"
