There is no escape. This week's news is going to be dominated by the inauguration of The Donald. Entrepreneur Mark Barnes and journalist Tim Cohen discuss how the world will change from this week - and how it won't. All of a sudden, the world itself seems to be a different place, and we will all need to look to our laurels - if we have them. And SA's 2024 crop of matriculants seems to have laurels in huge quantities with pass rates increasing impressively. That means applications at SA's universities are now overwhelming. But is a university degree the be-all and end-all of education and training? This and other stuff; take a listen.Production and Editing by Tevya Turok Shapiro.
