Ernest Khakhau, senior inspekteur van die Virginia DBV praat oor die gevonnis van ’n Odendaalsrus pastoor en sy vrou

Yolande Maartens gesels in die KunsteKlop met Nic Beukes, Lorenzo Dampies & Anke Malan.

Ná ’n kort draai by ’n verlate gebou bevind ’n familie hulself vasgevang in ’n onontkombare nagmerrie. Hulle word dieper in ’n doolhof van geheime en skaduwees getrek en moet veg om te oorleef tydens ’n nag van terreur wat dreig om hul liefde uitmekaar te skeur. Maar met elke nuwe openbaring begin die lyn tussen rede en waansin vervaag en dié wat eens vertrou is, word vyande wat binne die duisternis van die doolhof skuil.

Yolanda Maartins gesels met Dirk Badenhorst van die Mzansi Ballet.

’n Vertelling van Elvis Presley se lewe waarin sy mees bekende treffers gevier word, met dansers van Mzansi Ballet en sangers Frederick Fourie en Patience Mahema. Ballet en rock-’n-roll word gemeng in hierdie ballet wat die kompleksiteite van Presley se persoonlike lewe ondersoek, met verwysing na sy militêre diens, wat in die titel Private Presley weerklink, en sy hegte verhoudings met veral die vroue wat sy lewe en musiek sterk beïnvloed het.

Yolanda Maartens gesels met Jefferson J. Dirks-Korkee oor sy 2 vertonings by die Vrystaat Kunstefees die jaar.

Huis van Sand vertel van Babs en Sandy wat leef op die leftovers van hul verlede. Hul klein karavaan is ’n pondokpaleis vol geheime – hul eie sandkasteel. Sandy het haar swerwersbestaan langs die N7 verruil vir ’n nuwe begin by Rodney, die bottel gebêre om Babs groot te maak. Maar daarmee saam het groeipyne en erfsondes gekom. Babs probeer haar herinneringe afwas, maar die stofstorms van die verlede haal haar telkens in. Hul onthou neem die gehoor op ’n verbeeldingsvlug waar grense begin vervaag.

‘n Nuwe Afrikaanse toneelstuk deur Nico Scheepers ondersoek die brose grense tussen familie, geheue en oorlewing. Wanneer Stefan onverwags hoor dat sy ouers op pad is – ná jare se halfsinne en ontwykende kontak – word sy noukeurig gekonstrueerde lewe stilweg ontwrig. Dit is ’n skerpsinnige en herkenbare blik op erfenis … nie net van grond of besittings nie, maar van liefde, skuld en verwyt. Met fyn waarneming en donker humor ontbloot LEEFBAAR die Afrikaner se byna bonatuurlike vermoë om in stilte te oorleef.

Yolanda Maartens gesels met Kristo Zondagh oor 'Jou Ma se Platespeler' wat die jaar by die Vrystaat Kunstefees te sien gaan wees.

In Jou Ma Se Platespeler kyk ons na Afrikaanse musiek deur die oë van die nederige platespeler, teen die agtergrond van veranderende musiektegnologie en die veranderinge in ons land wat ’n nuwe stem aan Afrikaanse kunstenaars gegee het. Al die treffers sedert 1930 – jou ouma se plate, jou pa se kassette, jou klasmaat se CD’s, jou kind se Spotify-speellys … dis alles hier.

The excitement in Bloemfontein is palpable as the second round of the prestigious Toyota Challenge kicks off this afternoon.

To get an inside look into the camp, the Good Morning Breakfast team hosted star Toyota Cheetahs flyhalf Jaco van der Walt for an exclusive interview on his tactical mindset, squad dynamics, and what lies ahead for the Free State side over the next few days.

Testing the Depth - The Free State Cheetahs are riding high following a clinical 54-24 opening victory against Portugal's Lusitanos last Friday. However, tonight is all about testing the squad's boundaries. Van der Walt revealed that the Cheetahs will be showing off some serious depth tonight, as coaching staff are fielding a very different team to the one that took the field last week."The Lusitanos gave us a good run, but with matches so close together, squad depth is everything," Van der Walt noted during the interview.

Fans are in for a massive treat with fixtures split over mid-week and the upcoming weekend. The immediate focus remains on tonight at 18:00, where the new-look Toyota Cheetahs take on Romania A at the iconic Toyota Stadium.

"You're not meant to be perfect. You're meant to be real." @erineliot on her new single Unhinged Hall of Fame, out now. Her most unapologetic work yet.

The Junior Springboks and UFS Shimlas scrumhalf, Erich Visser, is thrilled to be making his Toyota Cheetahs debut on Wednesday night when they take on Romania A in the Toyota Challenge in Bloemfontein.

Visser has been part of the Cheetahs setup since last year, but his progress has coincided with commitments to both the Junior Springboks and the Shimlas during the Varsity Cup campaign.

Visser told OFM Sport that he can barely contain his excitement. While the nerves will undoubtedly be there, his focus will be on keeping things simple and doing the basics well.
