Joining John Maytham is Caryn Dolley, an award-winning investigative journalist with Daily Maverick and author of Clash of the Cartels, to help us unpack these explosive claims by Police Commissioner of KwaZulu-Natal Lieutenant General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi. Caryn has spent years investigating drug networks, compromised cops, and cartel influence in South Africa — and today, she helps us trace the red flags, the deep fractures in policing, and what’s at stake for South Africa’s national security

Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists.

A daily highlight is Rapid Fire, just after 5:30pm. CapeTalk fans call in, to stump the presenter with their general knowledge questions. Another firm favourite is the humorous Thursday crossing with award-winning journalist Rebecca Davis, called “Plan B”.
