AI Music, G20, Steenhuisen Uber Eats Bill, Madlanga Scammers
This week we get into it on Hot Topics, because honestly? In South Africa, every day is a day you look forward to — not because things are nice, but because the drama is premium. We’re out here accidentally eavesdropping on G20 traffic like it’s a national sport. Then suddenly, haibo, why is Cyril being told to resign again? What did we miss?*
*And as if that’s not enough, we now have local AI music artists popping up like mushrooms after rain! Oh, and of course… the Uber Eats saga. The Minister of Takeout himself, John Seenhuisen, apparently raking up expenses like he’s feeding a small village. You can’t make this stuff up.”
