    300 | WAW POLITRICKS | FUEL LEVY RELIEF; LESUFI SHUFFLE; SARS WIN; HORMUZ; IGBO SA KING; ZILLE STUNT

    Politricks with Botsang — the week that had EVERYTHING. Government drops a R3 fuel levy cushion, but petrol still climbed R3.06 and diesel over R7 per litre. Relief or illusion? Lesufi reshuffles his Gauteng cabinet and hands the Finance MEC seat to the EFF's Nkululeko Dunga — the party that was threatening to destabilise the province a year ago. SARS smashes through R2 trillion in revenue for the first time ever. Trump slaps his signature on $100 bills while the UK rallies 35 countries to fix the Strait of Hormuz crisis — without America at the table. The Igbo king coronation in KuGompo sparks protests, violence, and a diplomatic incident. And Helen Zille goes snorkelling in a three-year-old Joburg pothole — and it gets fixed days later.

    WAW POLITRICKS | MASEMOLA SUMMONED | MBALULA vs AFRI-FORUM | SOBUKWE | NATASHA PHIRI

    🔴 Commissioner Masemola summoned to court — R360M tender scandal deepens while 12 cops face criminal charges. Will Ramaphosa act or just "note"? 🔴 AfriForum drops the Mbalula Dossier — private prosecution, crimen injuria AND a request for US sanctions. Mbaks says it's racism. The ANC says it's a smear campaign. We say — let's look at the facts. 🔴 SABC journalist Natasha Phiri suspended after Madlanga Commission reveals R500 payment. Is SANEF fair to ALL its members? 🔴 63 Khoi and San ancestors reburied with full honours in Steinkopf. But Sobukwe's grave in Graaff-Reinet gets destroyed during Human Rights Month. The irony is painful. Thank you for watching, please subscribe to support the channel.

    JR BOGOPA | ON MARRIAGE, MUSIC, MONEY, REJECTION, GATA LE NNA & HIS REAL WEEK.

    This week on WAW What a Week, we sit down with the original music man — JR Bogopa. From Attridgeville to the Idols SA judges' chair, from discovering Shane Eagle and Yanga Chief to building Africa's first music distribution app FYVE, JR has quietly shaped South African music for over 15 years. But we're not here for the Wikipedia version. We're here for the WEEK. How was his Monday? What stressed him out? Did Tshepi check him? And what's sitting in his phone that the world doesn't know about yet? Plus we get into the business behind Feel Good Live Sessions, fatherhood, marriage, and why he believes there's value in scarcity. This one is personal, unfiltered and full of gems. WAW What a Week — the podcast where legends tell us what ACTUALLY happened in the last 7 days. Thank you for watching. Subscribe, like, comment and share. New episodes weekly.

    WAW POLITRICKS | PRS. RAMAPHOSA & PKTT; MADLANGA & ADHOC; AMERIKAANERS; TRUMP, NATO & IRAN

    This week on WAW Politricks, DJ Fresh and Botsang Moiloa break down the biggest political stories shaping South Africa and the world. President Cyril Ramaphosa distances himself from the controversial disbandment of the Political Killings Task Team, raising serious questions about accountability at the highest level. The Madlanga Commission and Parliament’s Ad Hoc Committee continue to expose cracks within law enforcement leadership, as top officials return to testify and key witnesses come under pressure. In Johannesburg, political tensions escalate as the ANC regional structure attempts to recall Mayor Dada Morero — only to be overruled by national leadership — while the MK Party reinstates Dr John Hlophe in a powerful parliamentary role. Internationally, the narrative around “white genocide” in South Africa faces scrutiny as some emigrants reportedly return home from the United States citing safety and cost-of-living concerns. And in the US, tensions rise as Donald Trump clashes with NATO allies while a senior counter-intelligence official resigns over foreign policy decisions. Sharp analysis. Real talk. No filters.

    LULO CAFE |

This is more than just a music conversation. It’s about legacy, spirituality, staying authentic in the industry, and building something that outlives you.

    WAW POLITRICKS | AMB. BOZELL III DEMARCHE; SANDF URBAN DEPLOYMENT; LEKOTA; IRAN WAR; AD-HOC

    This week on WAW Politricks, we unpack a week packed with political developments at home and abroad. South Africa mourns the passing of liberation struggle veteran Ntate Mosiuoa “Terror” Lekota, with the country preparing to honour him with a Category 2 Special Official Funeral in the Free State. Meanwhile, tensions rise diplomatically after DIRCO demarches the United States Ambassador over comments relating to the “Kill the Boer” chant — raising fresh debate about diplomacy, political rhetoric, and international relations. Domestically, the SANDF has been deployed to identified crime hotspots in Gauteng to support SAPS in tackling violent crime and illegal mining. Is this a necessary intervention or a sign that the security situation is escalating? We also track the progress of the Parliamentary Ad-Hoc Committee and the Madlanga Commission, as oversight processes continue to examine critical issues around governance and accountability. In a major moment for State Capture accountability, former ANC MP Vincent Smith becomes the first major political figure linked to the Zondo Commission findings to appear in court wearing orange overalls. And globally, we examine the escalating tensions between the United States, Iran, and the United Nations, as the conflict raises concerns about regional instability, shipping routes, and global markets. All this and more on WAW Politricks with DJ Fresh and Botsang Moiloa. Thank you for watching, please subscribe to support the channel.
