What were you doing today my friends? Working? I should hope not. Because, as you’ll know by now, a Friday done Jack’s way involves little to no work at all. And that’s what these lucky rascals in the video below were doing two weeks ago, as winners of our Monthly Friday Done Jack’s Way Competition, […]
I was reading Esquire magazine this weekend on my iPad 2 (get the Zinio app for magazine reading) and stumbled upon this pic of Candice Swanepoel, as she continues the practice of dropping napalm everywhere she goes. Thought you might “like”. Click here to see our past Candice Swanepoel posts.
Time to ditch the Farmville, folks! Mini have just released a Facebook game powered by the mighty forces of Flash and Google Maps that allows you to motor a mini.. er Mini across the global destination of your choice.
Most of you would have seen our office furniture in the new hit online series called ‘The Compound.” You can watch the weekly episodes on 2oceansvibe TV here. You will notice that the chair I “drive” is the Herman Miller Aeron chair. We chatted about it before here – it’s known as the most comfortable […]
How about I give you a short cut from Brightwater Commons in Johannesburg, to Fourways? Without using Malibonge Drive? Pretty handy for skipping highway traffic and roadblock traffic, I think you’ll find. Check it out, my boet! Remember you can get to 2oceansvibe TV anytime by going to 2ov.tv or 2oceansvibe.tv
Bryan Boy, the world’s most famous fashion blogger was in Cape Town this last week, courtesy of Marie Claire and Sunglass Hut. This guy gets front row at the biggest fashion shows in the world, and even had a handbag named after him by Marc Jacobs. Check out his website here. 2oceansvibe TV and PopYaCollar managed […]
A million dollars? Please. That’s not cool. Helicopter rides. THOSE, those are cool. “But Helicopter rides are so expensive!“, I hear you whinge. That is true, but you and I both know that it’s not a matter of price when it comes to experiencing the wonder of flight as a homo sapien. The price doesn’t […]
Low stress levels are an essential part of living the holiday. That is why Seth spent months on the road in Cape town and Johannesburg, outsourcing the best possible short-cuts (MINI Routes!) for you to save time and avoid traffic. We did six in Johannesburg and six in Cape Town. Some of these secret routes are […]
Where were last month when Jack Daniels and 2oceansVibe treated almost 100 hard working Capetownians to an afternoon of popcorn, whiskey, mustangs and movies? You were at WORK? Shame. Shame. Well here’s another bite at the cherry: listen close. WIN! FRIDAY DONE JACK’S WAY – FRIDAY 2 SEPTEMBER 2011 WIN a ticket for you and […]
You know how, every year that you’ve made the nine-hour trek to Hermanus, you’re kind of disappointed by how far away that mass-grouping of whales is from the shoreline? Whales are majestic creatures, but are they worth the agony of gawking at them from behind hoardes of shore-bound people? You have no right to be […]
In the fashion world you’re either in or you’re out. And Bryan Boy is most definitely in, what with him being a top international fashion blogger and all. Sunglass Hut, along with Marie Claire will be bringing him to South Africa for a series of workshops and appearances. Details after the jump.
A true 2oceansviber, Charl D, just sent me this. It’s basically all you need for the 2011 Rugby World Cup. All the fixtures, teams and times – BOOM – straight into your calendar with one click! Shame, we really do spoil you here, don’t we? Note – this is for iCal (ie. Mac). If You […]
Last month, in the persistent spirit of defiance, 2oceansVibe and Jack Daniel’s took nearly 100 exhausted, hardworking Capetonians to the movies on a working Friday afternoon. Press play on that video and ask yourself why you weren’t there. Work was bunked, whiskey was drunk, gourmet treats courtesy of Miss K were snaffled, and for the […]
This makes total sense. Apparently the upkeep of plants in Goldman Sachs’ London offices are costing the bank tens of thousands of pounds per annum, which is why the head offices have ordered many of the plants to be removed. It’s nice to see that these guys can make the big sacrifices when they have to.
Traditionally, you hear the phrase “surf and turf”, and your brain automatically concludes that instead of getting the best of both worlds, neither the seafood nor the steak will be something special on your plate. Well, ladies and gentlemen, it is about time you amend your perceptions of reality. Surf, by Groupon. Pay R180 instead […]
They’re a generous lot, Mr Daniel’s henchmen, and over the next few weeks they’ll be running a competition where you can win a brand new, customised 2011 Ford Mustang GT500 Shelby. We’ll break that down in just a moment. The good news is, I’ve just driven the thing. And it is marvelous.
The “Archive Gold” series continues with this piece – written three years ago. It’s more an important life skill, than an amusing article. Read it carefully. Be the best you can be. Happy Women’s Day.. An essential part to being a complete human being, is to possess the ability to cook perfect crispy bacon in […]
Sinatra. Ol’ Blue Eyes. The Chairman of the Board. It’s hard to know where to start with Frank Sinatra. There’s the young Frank of the 1940’s, the Oscar winning movie star, The Rat Pack years, with his old pals Sammy Davis, Dean Martin and the boys. Then there’s the manic depression, the equal rights activist […]
One of the funniest men on the planet (proof here), Pablo Francisco cruised into the 2oceansvibe Radio studio last week, and proceeded to impersonate Johnny Carson, Jay Leno, Al Pacino (Scarface), Chris Rock, Sylvester Stallone, Ozzy Osbourne, Michael J Fox, Dr. Phil, Tracy Morgan, Bill Cosby, Pauly Shore, Mel Gibson, Dennis Hopper, Gary Busey and Danny […]
I had a dinner party last night at my penthouse at the Cape Royale Hotel, and I must just say that the star of the show (besides the Jack Daniel’s, Corona beer, Boschendal bubbly and La Fee absinthe) was “The World In Vogue” coffee table book I bought for La Muse a while ago. It’s […]

Due to popular demand, we will be dusting off some of the biggest hits from the past and giving our newer readers a taste of yesteryear. Kicking off with this absolute beaut of a woman, spotted at Cavendish Square some time ago.. So I was leaving Cavendish Square on Friday after a thoroughly enjoyable Chunky […]
Clear your schedule this Friday afternoon. You, 2oceansVibe Radio and Jack Daniels are going to the movies. Why? Because everyone, at some point in their lives, has bunked work or school by going to the movies. And Jack Friday means you don’t work on Friday afternoons. Listen up. We have FIFTY double movie tickets to […]

That is, if you book with Groupon. Go peak your head out the window. Do you see the sunshine that we’re dealing with today? It’s an absolute joke. While the rest of the country is “gripped” by a cold spell, Cape Town is rocking the city’s collective faces off with a stiff little 24 degrees […]
When you see a headline that includes two things that you love, it is pretty hard not to shout it out to the world. Let’s take YOU, for example… Imagine if YOU received an email saying someone had created a new type of food which is a hybrid of chocolate and pork crackling – imagine […]
