    10 – Ugly People

    After a few months of drifting, doubting, and reconfiguring, we’re back for Season 2... and we’re locked in. Kyla pushes back on accusations of nihilism and unpacks the live-streamed assassination of Charlie Kirk by an irony-pilled 22-year-old. Mzonke examines Burkina Faso’s criminalisation of homosexuality and the predictable capitulation of so-called radical leaders like Ibrahim Traoré. Evan reflects on the historical perspective and timescale of Zionism and what it reveals about the modern nation-state. Join us as we wade through the murky waters of chaos, confusion, and division, making our way toward the shores of clarity and solidarity.

    9 – Nothing's Sacred

    Recorded a couple of days before Ramaphosa’s now-infamous White House meeting, we discuss the moral inversion at the heart of American political theatre, where the language of “genocide” is co-opted for spectacle, while real atrocities are ignored. Mzo traces how white fear continues to distort global politics, and Kyla spotlights the overlooked crisis of the South African soldiers still stranded in Goma, DRC.

    8 – Ubuntu

    We discuss Tucker Carlson’s hyperbolic interview with Ernst Roets—a masterclass in reactionary myth-making that twists reality to serve exclusionary agendas while sidestepping any honest reckoning with South Africa’s present. Kyla reminds us to log off, speak to one another and call our moms. And Mzo asks, "Who is going to create the record, if not us?"

    7 – A Beacon

    After a brief hiatus, we are back in the booth to reflect on the mood of the past few months, how South Africa is navigating being in the geopolitical crosshairs, and asking, "What even is funny anymore?"

    6 – Mmmmkay

    We discuss Darren Campher's joining the MK Party as its head of research. What does that mean, how did it happen, and who benefits from it?

    We collect our thoughts on the US election – its causes and consequences.

    4 – Dis Genoeg Nou.

    We discuss the enigma that is UCT's former vice-chancellor, Prof. Phakeng, and explore the phenomenon of getting caught in the social media posting web, and the public figures who haven't been able to resist its allure. Excuse the background noise; we couldn't not record outside on a sunny spring day.

    3 – Real Friends

    We discuss the GNU and performative politics, the EFF's statement on the death of Pravin Gordhan, statistics in SA, and who gets to be on social media.
