You ever heard a blogger say, “You want impartiality? Read a newspaper”? Ja, well, if you want impartiality, don’t read a newspaper. At least, don’t read the New Age newspaper. What’s that? You haven’t heard of the New Age newspaper? No, that’s quite alright. You’re not expected to know about it. They themselves confess that […]
This morning’s show was the most listened to show in the history of 2oceansvibe Radio. Everyone was tuning-in – even the Springbok team, one night before their test against Australia in the 2010 Tri-Nations. We had a hilarious comedy slot, as well as some HOT new and old tunes – including the solo effort of […]

With the likes of the UK shutting down the FM signal completely, combined with our increased need for non-stop internet, it’s no wonder Subaru are following in Audi’s tracks by developing cars with built-in 3G. The Subaru Outback, a “crossover” SUV and yuppie icon that seems naked without a ski rack on top and several […]
Well the response to today’s show was unprecedented to say the least. And well done all of you for tuning in – my goodness, we received over 60 tweets during that short time! Thanks for the support, gang – all 100% positive and it sounds like you’ve all been looking for something like this for […]
Well I’m feeling much better about myself, now that Michael Corleone Al Pacino has become a “brand whore” (as they call it in South Africa) by doing his first endorsement – in the form of a 30 second TV commercial for Vittoria, a brand of coffee. I’m not quite sure what to think, other than […]
Deep-fried food fanatic and part-time Saint Bernard impersonator, Brendan Seery, took to his arse-end-of-the-Weekend-Argus column with a blunt knife this weekend. I had never heard of, nor read this fellow before and I must say, I’ve got nothing but love for him. How lucky we are to have a traditional media columnist, (who, according to […]
Such were the scenes this morning (spiced it slightly), as 2oceansvibe Radio gave you another rollercoaster ride of smash-hit tunes (including some old-school vinyl), hilarious commentary, amazing prizes and of course, sports, weather and news. That’s news that you REALLY talk about. On this, the last show before the end of the 2010 World Cup! […]
Unbelievable scenes this morning at vida e on Kloof Street, as this photo of the great man was tweeted by “king_si” and forwarded to the 2oceansvibe Twitter account. It’s been a while since The TBG (Tall Blonde Guy) has been spotted around town. No doubt he has been overseas somewhere, curing the sick and mending […]

I was browsing the overseas newspapers on my iPad and spotted something on the front page of yesterday’s Daily Telegraph in the UK. Check it out – bottom right: With the launch of 2oceansvibe Radio, I am naturally drawn to articles like this – especially when they’re on the front page. Really interesting stuff here […]
Remember that band that made that sick “My Cape Town” song? The one that went viral and brought down the Seacom cable? Ja, that one. Ok, it didn’t really bring down Seacom, but it did manage to get Helen Zille to comment on their Facebook page. We’ve also featured it a couple of times on […]
What an awesome show that was! If you missed it you can download the podcast (link below) and catch up with this morning’s entertainment which included sports talk, international news, some hot music and plenty phone-ins and competition winners!

There are a lot of iPhone apps out there and, as much as I would like to focus on all of them, my attention has been fully diverted to the new kid on the my block, the iPad. By the way, did I tell you that I subscribed to 12 issues of Wallpaper magazine for […]
What a fun show it was this morning! We gave out a ton of Havaianas slops and Sunglass Hut vouchers, we celebrated the life of Michael Jackson on this, the one year anniversary of his death. And by celebrated, I mean we played two of his tracks on VINYL – because that is very much […]
You are absolute right for thinking that there is another live 2oceansvibe Radio broadcast tomorrow from 8am to 10am, as we move closer to our debut in the Cape Quarter – which is soon to be the new full-time home of 2oceansvibe Radio. Just to keep you in the loop, what we’re doing is we’re […]
I’ll be honest, I’m settling into the iPad quite nicely and starting to incorporate it into everyday life. I genuinely find typing on it (in portrait) an absolutely pleasure, typing at virtually the same speed as I do on a normal keyboard. Look at me, being all detailed and informative, like I’m not on my […]
I featured the all new Google Maps Street View vibe the other day (on the iPad nogal), and, whilst I was able to show you some of 2oceansvibe’s favourtie landmarks, I’ve been DYING to get some roadside funnies captured by the Google Street View cameras. Finally, 24 Apollo Road in Ocean View, just outside Kommetjie, […]
Remember the “alleged” tale of the Grand Daddy Valet who stole a customer vehicle and rolled it 70 kilometres away in Blue Downs? The Grand Daddy Hotel left a comment on that story. Let’s enjoy it with our morning coffee: A response to this post from the Grand Daddy: It is regrettably true that this […]
Those of you following 2oceansvibe on Twitter would have seen this yesterday. You see, I was rubbing my new iPad against my body and accidentally opened up the TIME Magazine app. It’s a much celebrated iPad app and you can see why. This pic was captured as one of their five best pics of the […]
It’s finally paid off – my constant musings and coverage of North Korea and, in particular, Our Dear Leader Kim Jong il, has resulted in a special invite from VISA to attend today’s game against Portugal! Why thank you, VISA! This is the first time North Korea has been in the World Cup since 1966! […]
So we finally got to chat to Kahn Morbee, the lead singer of The Parlotones, following this week’s controversial public discussion about their latest music video. The video sees The Parlotones singing a new song, “Come Back As Heroes” to the German football players, in the middle of a football stadium jam-packed full of Germans […]
The 2010 World Cup is well underway and emotions are running high – and it’s not just to do with the football! The latest entertainment industry skandaal to circulate the internet and the airwaves is the case of SA band, The Parlotones. Their patriotism and levels of commercialism were questioned in a twitter/comment record-breaking article […]
All protocol was relaxed as we granted one photographer and virtual-tour expert (Panascape) unprecedented access to my suite at the Cape Royale hotel. As it is my primary residence, you can imagine what intimate never-seen-before details were caught on camera. The virtual tour itself let’s you cruise around the Cape Royale hotel (spinning 360 degrees […]
Apart from electrifying conversation, world-class programming and phone-ins from the likes of Ard Matthews and Cokey Falkow (plus a ton of listeners calling in and winning prizes from Havaianas and Sunglass Hut), we also played some killer tunes. Check check check it out.. PLAYLIST Kiss Me – Indecent Obsession Armada Latina – Cypress Hill Red […]
As we continue closer to the launch of a permanent 2oceansvibe Radio studio in the exclusive Cape Quarter, I thought this video would crack you up a bit. Alan Partridge shows us how it’s done! Stay tuned for developments and be sure to catch us live on Friday morning from 08h00 to 10h00! www.2oceansviberadio.com – […]
“They” come out with hundreds of thousands of new apps every month and, very often, they’re rubbish – often making use of some of the iPhones hardware unnecessarily. Not this time. I found this little gem which will be very handy for our 2010 WC visitors wanting to take a break and catch a flick. […]
Current World Cup Champ, Springbok captain, the most capped rugby captain in world history and possibly BP’s only hope in stopping the oil spill, John Smit, will be joining us LIVE in the studio for 2oceansvibe Radio this Friday. John Smit receives word that he will be on 2oceansvibe Radio Besides Friday being the first […]
Much like the hilarities found on Craiglist classifieds websites around the world, our very own online classifieds website, Gumtree, has been known to give us the odd corker from time to time. Take this ad, for example: Hello, So firstly; this room is only available for a female. Sorry guys; it’s already two of us […]
