We’re pretty tight with Jack Daniel, here at 2oceansvibe. By now you should be fully aware that we have been liberating people on Friday afternoons – kidnapping people from their offices and generally enforcing Jack Daniel’s (and our) belief that people should not be working on Friday afternoons. But we’re not the only ones doing […]
We are very pleased to see people catching on to the notion of work-free Fridays, and today’s entries have been no exception. Interestingly, this week ladies are taking the lead in embracing the art of Friday relaxation. A noteworthy mention goes to @em_skye, who is heading up the West Coast for the weekend, looking very […]
BOS Ice Tea has launched a new campaign to fight the winter blues – The BOS Gravelocity Challenge. Anyone can take part, there’s lots of prizes to be won (iPods, iPads, bucketloads of BOS) and it’s fun, silly and very interactive. Rob van Vuuren and Louw Venter (of Corné & Twakkie fame) showcase the art […]
2oceansVibe Radio broadcast the Premier Show on Friday from a cosy Italian spot at the V&A Waterfront called Meloncino. Why would we be broadcasting from there, you ask? We were busy treating one lucky lad by the name of Brendon Bain to an afternoon of jollification, courtesy of Jack Daniels. In case you missed the […]
Our original article about the Waterfront iStore (entitled “iStore Does Not Need Your Business” has been read over 10,000 times. This is mainly due to the fact that the article ranks number 1 in Google if you search for “cape town iStore.” the beauty of this situation is that the comments section of the article […]
Hidey-hidey-ho girls and boys! 2oceansVibe radio’s Premier Show on Fridays is broadcasting live from Meloncino at the V&A Waterfront this morning. Why? Well it’s that special day in every month when Jack Daniels and 2oceansVibe conspire to raise awareness around the travesty that is the working Friday. We’re campaigning to have Friday working hours abolished […]
Groupon, in conjunction with Union Sports Mag, is giving four lucky Groupies the chance to win a seafood dinner with Springbok centre, Jaque Fourie, at one of Cape Town’s best kept secrets – Pigalle restaurant.

We are working on a new series, which is dedicated to finding the ultimate short-cuts around the streets of Cape Town. We will also be doing one for Johannesburg. But, for now, we want to gather the best ones in Cape town. So if YOU know of a secret short-cut on the roads of Cape […]
This week’s Jack Friday competition was, despite the cold weather, a fiery contest. The quality of the tweeted entries is taking a sharply upward curve, so much so that this baby claimed the runner’s up place, courtesy of @PharSideUK. (Yes, entries are good enough to actually have a runner up!) Very nice touch with the […]
Check out the First Lady of the United States freaking out in glee over the Bos Ice Tea on her lunch table in Woodstock yesterday. Ja. You know it.
When we said that we were going to revolutionize the South African work place by lobbying for shorter (read: “nonexistent”) Friday working hours, we weren’t kidding around. Proof? Thanks to the help of our friends at Jack Daniels, and the marvelous Last Word hotel group, we got ourselves a yacht. The Princess Emma, to be […]
Today is the 17th of the month. Instinctively, you know that that means. The Petrol gauge is flirting with the wrong side of the half-mark. The improvised wine-collection is running dry. The packet of cigarettes is looking dangerously roomy, and the Salticrax are beginning to look more austere than opulent. And as the cash-coffers dry […]
Sounds pretty remarkable, doesn’t it? You see, it all started when I was cruising around Schipol Airport and noticed that they were selling the iPad 2 for MORE than what you can buy one from at Digicape. Digicape are selling the iPad 2 with 32Gb and 3G for R6,599 – no spice. Can you believe […]
The weekly Jack Friday competition, brought to you by 2oceansVibe and Jack Daniels continues to march forward! Every week we’ll be giving away a bottle of Jack to the person who sends in the best picture of themselves living the Jack Friday vibe by skipping work during work hours.

Check it out… “MINI is expanding its product family with the launch of a model geared squarely to maximising driving fun. The MINI Coupé indulges the keen driver with a level of agility unmatched in […]
With Digicape taking care of the vibe since 2008, it’s a given that the 2oceansvibe Media compound is Mac ‘verskrik.’ It is for that very reason, and the fact that the world agrees with us (Apple is now worth more than Microsoft and Intel combined) that we wish to give you this video and full […]
My extensive collection of sunglasses is well documented, and I can tell you right now, without hesitation, that this new pair of Persol “Steve McQueen‘s” from Sunglass Hut is EASILY one of my favourites. They are the epitome of ‘classic’ and the contrast of the light tortoiseshell frames against the blue lenses make me so […]
We were lucky enough to be featured in the Lifestyle section of today’s Sunday Times, in a piece written by everyone’s favourite columnist, Lin Sampson. In the article, entitled “The End Of Radio As We Know It,” Lin confirms that Tim Harris, the DA’s Shadow Minister of Trade & Industry, is the only person in politics that one […]
Our weekly Jack Friday competition is beginning to build up a head of steam. And what with the winter weather approaching, it’s only appropriate that this entry, tweeted by @BrettLivesHere should claim the prize. Yes, today blossomed into a gorgeous day, but one really can’t be faulted for breaking out the pinstripe man-pyjamas and skaapie pantoffels. […]
So while the likes of DSquared2 are tarting up the MINI Countryman (here), I see they are looking at launching a MINI Roadster quite soon. I couldn’t get confirmation from MINI SA about this, let alone when they will be bringing them to SA. But if they do…. Mmm mm! We got hold of a […]
In case any of you missed the epic new MINI ad that has just hit TV screens around the world (came on during Carte Blanche last night) – check it out!
I’ll be honest, my friends and I have been practicing the climbing-out-of-the-pool-with-water-pouring-down-our-faces men’s fragrance commercial ripoff for quite some time. Now whilst GQ allowed a bit of indulgence, it was only when Kulula came to the party – allowing such ridiculousness – that the years of training finally paid off! Morne Van Zyl took the […]
2oceansvibe had to turn down business from two different brands this last week. A lot of the haters out there don’t realise that. They don’t think it happens. It does. Constantly. That is why the lovers keep coming back here – because any exposure for any brand is genuine and they don’t mind the advertising. […]
The 2oceansvibe Breakfast team is joined this morning by Cape Town City Mayor, Dan Plato. Tune in to catch the chatter. That’s all done now – if you missed the show, a podcast will be up shortly on 2oceansvibe Radio’s website (new one coming soon ;-)) For now please enjoy this stunning pic of 2oceansvibe […]
Two years ago I sought the counsel of a brainy acquaintance of mine on the subject of my flagging and flaccid career as a broadcaster. In his study was a device that was to be the prop that formed the basis of his argument. Here was a gizmo that allowed this pale and interesting fish to tune into digital radio in far flung territories at the flick of a dial. This, he said, is the future of broadcasting. Go forth, he said, as casually as he might buy some more Japanese stocks.
Charlie Sheen Gets Standing Ovation At Second Show – fter being heckled and booed in Detroit, Charlie Sheen made some changes to his road show Sunday night – and this time, it ended with a standing ovation. Sheen used a talk show-style format at his Chicago show, with a master of ceremonies asking the actor […]
We all watched that television series Full House when we were younger. We all loved it and it was one of the funniest and happiest times of our young television lives. The twins were, well, adorable and made us laugh out loud quite regularly, but they might need to explain this one.
Friends, Jack Daniels and 2oceansvibe are teaming up to take Friday afternoon work hours down! Tomorrow afternoon you could be working – or you could be chilling with four of your friends on Table Mountain with great food, great drink, and great music – in absolute comfort. Best of all, we will take care of […]
How many of you caught the story, posted earlier in the day, about a Cape Town advocate who swore at a Cape Town High Court judge, and stormed out of the court room? Look, in no way do we condone his behaviour. Insulting references to another man’s female relatives, most especially The Mother, should never […]
