Producer Ryan did a good deed - he drove his wife to work in her car. Sweet, right? Until the fine arrived. Now the real question is: who pays?

Is love about sharing… or settling traffic fines?

Yaya (Nelia Ngulube) has been a nanny for 16 years, working for four families and caring for a total of nine children. She has two children of her own and lives in Craighall Park, Johannesburg. She learned to make rusks from the grandmother of one of the families she worked for, later adapting the original recipe into her own. In April 2025, she launched her rusk business with the support and social media strategy of her current employer, where she looks after twin boys. The business has since grown rapidly, with weekly sell-outs and a loyal customer base.

We all have that place – the hometown, the family gathering, or even a favorite hangout — that feels more like a drama hotspot than a vacation spot. Too many relatives, too many questions, and way too much tension. So, where do you avoid going because the family drama is just too much?

When one of our listeners wrote a song for his half-deaf girlfriend, Ntombi, our hearts exploded. So we asked Joburg: Have you ever written a song for someone you love?

What we got back was raw, romantic, sometimes hilarious, and deeply human. From breakup ballads to secret serenades, this episode is all about the music we make when words just aren't enough. Get ready for goosebumps, giggles, and maybe even a tear or two.

From the Varsity of Zululand to Vega, Ndabe Zondi’s journey has been anything but ordinary. He’s come heartbreakingly close to the top — not once, but twice. First, he placed second in the ECR Presenter Search, narrowly missing the mic. Then again, as the MTN Superfan, where he almost scored the ultimate dream: traveling with the Boks to Japan. Again, second place.

But here’s the plot twist: finishing second never meant falling short. It meant sharpening his voice, growing his hustle, and waiting for the right mic — and now, he’s got it. Joburg, meet your newest 947 presenter: sharp, seasoned, and hungry. And if you're wondering who's sweating the most right now… just ask Msizi James. Another Durban boy? The competition just got real.

we hear from an anonymous listener who left us a voice note with a tough question:

“I took back my cheating ex. My family still hates him. I’ve got a birthday party coming up… and I’m thinking of not inviting him. Should I?”

It’s the kind of dilemma that cuts deep—when your heart says one thing, and your family says another. We talk about love, forgiveness, family boundaries, and whether your birthday is a day for peace… or picking a side.

You’ve got one. I’ve got one. That mysterious kitchen junk drawer full of... who-knows-what. Birthday candles take the #1 spot—because heaven forbid we buy new ones—and rubber bands are a close #2 (wrapped around nothing, just vibes). But what’s the third most hoarded item in the nation’s junk drawers? Today, we dig into the oddly intimate psychology of the junk drawer, why we keep what we keep, and reveal the surprising third-place contender. Spoiler: it’s something you’ve definitely got right now—and probably haven’t used in years.

So, you sent a Save the Date... and now you want to uninvite them? Oof. That’s not just bold - that’s a social plot twist!

Sure, it’s technically not a contract. But let’s be honest: once that card hits their fridge, it’s real. You told them, “You’re in.” Now you’re pulling a disappearing act? Yikes.

Look, we get it. Life changes. Budgets shrink. People show their true colors. But if you’re thinking about snatching that invite back—just know: it’s messy, it’s awkward, and yeah, it might spark drama.

If you have to do it? Be grown. Pick up the phone. Say what’s up. Don’t ghost. Don’t sugarcoat. Do. It. Right.
