The Gareth Cliff Show

This episode gets uncomfortable—in the best way. Gareth Cliff unpacks the Epstein files, power, and the mindset of those who believe they’re untouchable at the top of the pyramid. We’re joined by Safe Citizen founder Jonathan Deal to talk protecting South Africans amid rising crime, before Wesley Jacobs weighs in on the by-election and how military discipline shapes his political outlook.

A year after the elections, Gareth Cliff looks ahead and makes bold predictions about the future of South Africa’s Government of National Unity – and wonders who might mysteriously land on the 2026 Death Pool. The team unpacks what they call the “true epidemic” and why the title fits a little too well. Relationship expert Sacha Jack joins the conversation alongside superfan Neil Meintjies to offer a refreshingly practical take on modern dating and how to actually make it work in 2026.

Gareth digs into Donald Trump’s view on South Africa — and just how much US intelligence really knows about the country (hint: it’s more than you think). Dr Hanan joins the conversation on the loneliness that often comes with healing, before the team unpacks the real forces behind today’s growing sex recession. Plus, Martin Weist from Tourvest Travel Services breaks down travel trends for 2026, and Robbie Kruse chats to Gareth about golf-fluencing, influence culture, and the shifting media landscape in South Africa.

Gen Z has ditched alcohol but picked up what exactly? Gareth, Leigh-Ann and Ben question the fun levels of a sober generation, tackle the Emotional January Hangover, and debate what “starting the year strong” even means anymore. Gareth also sits down with comedian and content creator Themba Robins to discuss dodgy Airbnb cameras, airport chaos, and the uniquely South African art of laughing through the struggle.

Gareth and Leigh-Ann kick off the year with a KeDezemba recap, setting the tone for a no-holds-barred start. Ben joins the mix as the trio unpack why the default human setting seems to be “ready for war,” before Gareth and Mash dive into a new dating app that skips the small talk and goes straight to the meat and potatoes — literally. Comedian Trevor Gumbi drops in and gets refreshingly real about dad life, creativity, and embracing his inner “twisted individual.” The Real Network
