Caught in Time episodes

  • Bryan McLagan (AKA Wang) - The Finkelstiens
    The Finkelstiens were the funniest band onstage and wrote the catchiest pop punk tunes in SA. Seriously. They were actually quite annoying in how catchy they were. And in how funny. Wang and I had a funny old chat about soundtracking Crazy Monkey, winning awards, getting mobbed by fans and dissing Barry Hilton to his face. Legend.

  • Dave Chislett (Music Journalist/Author/AntiGravity)

    Dave Chislett went from opening up for The Prodigy on their debut South African tour to being a major voice in SA music journalism, radio and band management. Progressing into public speaking, poetry and authorship, his thoroughly unique experience of and perspective on the South African music scene of the 90s and 00s made for a very interesting and refreshing conversation. Thank you to Dave for his time and patience getting this one over the line!

  • David Beretta Owens (Lithium/N8ive/Gimp/PitVirus)
    Dave Owens was/is the frontman for Lithium from Cape Town, a band who's reunited more than once but who I never got to see very often - despite their being one of my biggest early musical influences. He went on to form incredibly diverse projects including acoustic rockers N8ive, the nu-metal inspired Gimp, and most recently, the metallic PitVirus (alongside members of Vulvodynia). Lithium holds a special place in my heart, so this interview was an absolute joy to do! Thank you Dave.

  • Hanu De Jong (Not My Dog, The Narrow)

    Hanu De Jong is a powerful force as a live vocalist and frontman, but his artistic evolution also matches his onstage presence.

    Progressing from brawling, beer-soaked 7-string riffs and mind-bending time shifts with Not My Dog, he formed melodic rock outfit The Narrow in the early 00s with his brother Emile (also a co-founder of NMD), proving beyond doubt his ability to craft epic, evocative melodies and a not insignificant set of vocal chops.

    Hanu is astute, funny, kind and focused on constantly creating - all of which came through clearly in this awesome conversation.

  • The South African Nu-Metal Roundtable (Pestroy, 16Stitch & Marlowe)

    The South African scene wouldn't be what it was without community - and there were arguably no stronger examples than the metal and punk communities that spanned the country. While there was friendly competition, there was ultimately support and collaboration at every turn.


    That's the era I came up in, and so talking with these three friends was not only a hilarious treat, but also very meaningful as we reconnect after some 20 years.


    I'll let the episode do the talking...

  • John Ellis (Tree63)

    John Ellis and Tree63 have written some of the catchiest, most heartfelt songs to come out of South Africa - and their message is one of faith, hope and personal spiritual connection. John is a gifted songwriter with a knack for melody and arrangement, and a brilliantly honest lyric writing style that has captured hearts and ears all over the world.


    I loved this conversation about Tree63's message, their journey, and how John thinks about being a South African - and a South African in music.


    We first connected over a fascinating piece he published, "10 South African Songs That Taught Me To Be South African". Check out his beautifully written and insightful blog here: https://johnelliswords.wordpress.com/2020/06/09/ten-south-african-songs-that-taught-me-to-be-south-african/
