Danny Painter has been a fixture in South African entertainment since she was a teenager - kids TV on SABC 2, a move to the UK, four years fighting her way back into the industry, and nine years at Jacaranda FM hosting Love Songs. Most people know the voice. Far fewer know what was happening behind it.

In September 2023, her husband Phil died suddenly of a heart attack. She was getting ready to go on air. Two weeks later, she was back at work. A year after that, her father took his own life.

In this episode, Danny sits down with Jennis and JC to talk about all of it - the weighing every Monday on kids TV, her double life at 21, the vodka-on-the-bathroom-floor phase of grief, dating again, and what it actually means to move forward without forgetting.

It’s raw, funny, heartbreaking and ultimately hopeful.
