Carol Ofori

Carol Ofori and Tinashe are back with the hottest trends. The name on everyone's lips is Andile Lungisa and a lot of people have a lot of feelings about his release from jail. Also on 1 Dec. it's #WorldAIDSDay which focuses on spreading awareness about this disease and we're also celebrating the start of the last month of 2020 (the longest year in history).

1 December is World AIDS Day. Although our lives might seem to be filled with coronavirus, many people are still fighting the ongoing battle against HIV.

Today is about support, love, and hope. Carol had a chat with the CEO of the Hillcrest AIDS Centre Trust, Candace Davidson and discussed the significance of this day.

Now for some careers, the occupational hazards are very clear. Some people have to work with dangerous chemicals, work in risky areas, or in quite unsafe conditions.

Carol Ofori shared the story of how her husband got injured on the job and it made her quite curious.

Today on #TrendingWithTinashe, Carol Ofori and Tinashe have an emotional roundup. Firstly they touch on Mshoza's beautiful funeral that took place over the weekend, followed by two local TikTok stars who were responsible for a heartwarming moment that had us all in our feels.

In case you missed it: local artist, DJ Lag, accused DJ Megan Ryte of stealing one of his songs. People were upset because it was very clearly the same song and what made it worse is that Megan has not addressed this "coincidence". She also disabled comments on the YouTube video for the track. It seemed like she was just trying to avoid any backlash without acknowledging what she had done. Then there was a plot twist...

There will always be moments where your kids pull each other's hair, irritate each other, and just don't get along.

Take a listen to find out what our resident bad mom, Thenjiwe, and the actual parent coach, Ayanda Tetyana, had to say on today's #BadMomsClub.

How many of us really do our research when it comes to the latest dieting craze?
