@bayli609 ,

Such digestible content! Love every episode

As new migrants to South Africa, there’s so much to navigate and so much history to catch up on. Dan’s podcast has been an AMAZING resource for us, it’s so enjoyable to listen to and really helps us learn about the chaos and many layers that make up this weird and wonderful country. Highly recommend!

Let’s watch this movie together

I discovered Dan during the World Cup, loved watching his analysis/breakdowns. Seeing that evolve into The Issue is great! Relevant topics, guests from across the board, no faffing.
Full marks because of the beanies though.

Just Brilliant

The takes, analysis’ and/ or breakdowns are unbiased, factual and comprehensible - even on topics that are complex, boring and dreadful. Dan makes keeping up with headlines easy, not to mention in an, and for lack of better words, “unpropagated” and cleanest way possible. His work is impeccable, I feel.
