    #20 Is South Africa's Creator Economy Doomed?

    We unpack a conversation that’s been trending online quite a bit lately - audience fatigue with the kind of content we’ve been seeing, and the growing need for creators to show up more authentically and intentionally online. We also dive into what the Dove Creator Collective is contributing to this conversation, and the commitment Dove is making as a brand to support more meaningful storytelling and authentic creator expression. We sit down with Dr Katlego Selikane and Thando Gambushe as they share their perspectives, advice, creator journeys, and insights into the impactful work being done through the Dove Creator Collective.

    #18 The Economics of Modern Love

    In this Curious Adventure, we ask a provocative question: what happens when love starts to look like a marketplace? From swiping in bed in Joburg to billion‑dollar dating empires, we trace how romance evolved from family contracts to algorithms that turn people into profiles and attention into profit. We unpack why apps profit from endless swiping instead of happy matches and how that design fuels anxiety, burnout, and self‑image struggles. Finally, we wonder if “marriages of economics” are more honest than we admit, and what love might look like when it’s freed from capitalism’s grip.

    #17 The Revolution Will Be Reposted

    Digital activism isn’t just about trending hashtags. It’s about harnessing the web’s power to challenge systems, shift narratives, and spark real-world impact.  Digital activism isn’t a magic wand. It’s messy, uneven, and often exhausting. In this episode, we dig into how online “change” can blur the line between genuine solidarity and performative posting, and why visibility does not always translate into material impact. In this episode, we unpack how online movements have redefined activism in the digital age: from youth-led campaigns and creative content strategies to the power of visibility and global solidarity.

    #16 Hollywood: Lights, Camera, Brainwash!

    When a G20 summit in South Africa becomes a Hollywood hostage thriller, what story about power is really being told? This episode uses the G20 movie to trace how US movies (from WWII to the War on Terror and today) have doubled as soft propaganda, glamorising US power while turning places like South Africa, Iraq and Russia into chaotic backdrops or stock villains. We unpack what that does to global perceptions, how it shapes self‑image in the countries portrayed, and why some scholars now call this cultural imperialism in the age of Netflix and algorithms #You'reAJOAT

    #15 Power and Compassion: Can You Have Both?

    Power is easy to recognise when it looks like bombs, borders and big men at podiums. It’s harder to name when it looks like a doctor refusing to give up on a collapsing hospital. In this episode I use the wars of today and the violences of history to ask whether ruthlessness is really strength  or just a performance we’ve been trained to respect and what it would mean to build a politics where compassion is treated as a form of power, not a weakness. #You'reAJOAT

    #14 Coalition Country: How Power Sharing Really Works

    In this episode of Jaxx of All Trades, we  down how power-sharing really works in modern democracies. We unpack what coalition governments are, why they happen, and how different voting systems shape who ends up in charge. We look at when coalitions can bring stability and compromise, and when they slide into chaos, gridlock and endless political drama. If you’ve ever wondered what it means to live in a coalition country and what that means for your vote, this episode is for you.
