If you missed the first ever Mail & Guardian Newsroom show on 2oceansvibe Radio, don’t dispair.
The mics are have barely had enough time to cool, and already we have the podcast of the inaugural Mail & Guardian Newsroom show for your analytical pleasure.
In this week’s edition, show presenters Nick Bauer and Verashni Pillay cover the FNB/ANC debacle, the burgeoning investigation into spending on President Jacob Zuma’s Nkandla residence, and Mamphela Ramphele’s decision to enter South African politics.
ON NKANDLA
Should we honestly accept that R200 million was solely spent on security upgrades to Zuma’s Nkandla residence, and not on actual construction?
How can it be acceptable that over R130 million was paid to state departments involved in the upgrade alone?
Where does this leave Thuli Madonsela’s report?
On RAMPHELE
Is she going to join the DA?
Will she survive alone if she forms her own political party?
Will this threaten the ANC’s dominance?
Other features include a trip to Silicon Alley to talk all things tech with Alistair Fairweather, the Africa Focus, Culture Beat, and weekly round up of insights from the Mail & Guardian Editor, Nic Dawes.
Missed the show? No problem. Join Amanda Strydom, Nickolaus Bauer, Mmanaledi Mataboge and Verashni Pillay next week at the same time for an hour of insight and analysis from the people who break the news. Expect big investigative stories, business insight, interviews with the people who make the big decisions, and the finest in arts and culture coverage.
