  • Part 2: "Catch Flights Not Feelings"

    In much of our modern day, we often find ourselves making comparisons with those around us, whether consciously or not. This is especially true in the realm of dating, where we sometimes measure ourselves against vague or unrealistic standards, often to our detriment. It’s a relatable struggle many face, and in this episode, we explore the impact of these comparisons and how they shape our relationship dynamics. Enjoy.

  • Mandela's Legacy
    Mandela’s Legacy is something that’s becoming more & more contested as the years pass by and it would be too cavalier of us to not stop and actually ask why? We try get to the root of the expectations from the nation and ask if maybe they were illegitimate or just valid but rather misplaced? Please have a listen and join in on the conversation.

  • Free Speech

    “Free Speech” is an interesting idea that is not always realised within our public squares and society’s depending on where in the world you might find yourself! But we would argue that it’s a right that is being challenged in a soft authoritarian way, here we try understand what could this mean for our current moment.

    a incoming Trailer after this Episode for Season 2. 

    It often can feel like the conversation circles around the concept of skin color and people pointing fingers at each other 24/7 in South Africa, especially in corporate marketing for a few companies it would seem. Well they’ve done it again and we ask ourselves should we expect another “tone deaf” advertisement? Here we look at certain outlooks we can adopt in our day to day’s or potential reasons for what has taken place.
