Springbok coach Peter de Villiers generously made special provision for an interview with 2oceansvibe Radio’s Seth Rotherham and Bruce Good ahead of the test between South Africa and Sotland at Murrayfield on November the 20th. You can listen to all of the high-pitched enthusiasm here, right now.
Jeez, don’t hate us ‘cos we interviewed one of the godfathers of rap on 2oceansvibe Radio. Regular listeners have become quite used to this vibe – Plush today, Spud yesterday (with Arno Carstens), Simon Le Bon the other day. It’s endless. But for now, check out this interview Chuck D did with our lunch hosts, Luca & Josie!
We’re certainly no stranger to the clustercuss that is Kanye West. We’ve recently discussed the banning of his questionable album cover and now we bring you the interview that caused his media trainer to quit after just three days on the job.
It didn’t take long for the inevitable parodies of our Mr South Africa hero, Adriaan Bergh, to start travelling the interwebs. While this latest Mr South Africa wannabe certainly has potential, he unfortunately lacks the fifth and most important characteristic that we look for in a Mr South Africa which is, of course, access to a golf cart.
William Gave Kate Diana’s Engagement Ring – Kate joined William at St James’s Palace during their first public appearance since the announcement. On her finger was the engagement ring, a gorgeous 18 carat blue sapphire surrounded by smaller diamonds. It was the same engagement ring as his late mother Princess Diana wore. William explained the […]
Chris Nolan, auteur behind the no-longer-embarassing Batman franchise, has started gearing up for the third installment of the rebooted series – The Dark Knight Rises. Apparently Nolan wants two female leads this time, just to rub it in Katie Holmes’ face. Potential candidates and gallery after the jump.
Jeremy Clarkson and the Top Gear team give us an exclusive look into what really goes into the making of The Stig. Come and take a tour around the Stig farm and get to see what really goes on behind the scenes as they reveal The New Stig.
Fantastically funny ad campaign by Arab Dairy for their Panda Cheese, which doesn’t have anything to do with pandas, but don’t let that get in the way of enjoying these videos.
If you’re trying to sell air tickets, it’s a very, very bad idea to have the words “death” and “holiday” in the same advertisement. 1Time Airlines, who have apparently taken up the mantle from Nationwide as South Africa’s scariest airline, have done just that with this delightful email campaign. Your Monday morning dose of badvertising, after the jump.
Cao ni zu zong shi ba dai. It’s probably about time I learned to speak Mandarin. According to research just published by the Conference Board, a highly respected research institute, the Chinese economy will overtake that of the poor old US by 2012 in terms of output.
Rockstar Games have released a debut trailer for their latest open-worlder: L.A. Noire. The game is set to be released in American Spring 2011 and will offer a different experience for those who enjoy blundering about a virtual map shouting obscentities, while waxing lyrical with a friend about bashing an elderly bystander’s head in with the back of a stolen car.
Just last week we reported how Myspace was repositioning itself as a “social entertainment platform”. As if to prove us right, they’ve only gone and exclusively previewed the brilliant new OK Go music video featuring 2,430 slices of toast in one of the most epic stop-motion animations I’ve seen in a long time.
A brilliant ad campaign promoting the Movember testicular-cancer awareness drive has popped up at Moustaches Make A Difference, reminding us of the fact that moustaches are what make great men great. Check out the full gallery after the jump – it’s awesome.
Zombies are everywhere. They’re in your movies, in your video games, in your Jane Austen, in your head (in your head) – and then some brilliant young mind decided that we needed a zombie-based television series. Wonderful – way to keep those fresh ideas coming. Except The Walking Dead might be the franchise to put this whole ‘undead’ craze to rest for a while.
The BBC has a new show called The Trip, which features two of Britain’s greatest comedians, Gavin & Stacey’s Rob Brydon and Alan Partridge’s Steve Coogan. In this clip, the two try to outdo each other with their Michael Caine impressions and the result is further proof that no one does comedy quite like the Brits.
‘So, you’re in love with one of your friends, but she has a boyfriend and probably wouldn’t have sex with you anyway’ is pretty descriptive, as titles go. You probably don’t need much more to go by than that. It’s funny and you should watch it. The fireman here knows what I’m talking about.
While I was originally stoked to find out that Wonder Woman was making a return to the silver screen and then gutted to learn that the project had been downgraded to TV, my opinion of the project has once again been swung by reports that our Tanit Phoenix is in talks to get the leading role.
In the wake of the news that Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp has declared that “Myspace is a problem” and has given the beleaguered social networking site months to sort itself out, we take a look at the reasons why the original posterchild of Web 2.0 is dying.
The central bank of the United States of America, the Federal Reserve, in response to the recent Great Recession has acted swiftly, decisively and boldly. Its answer to a catastrophe that was caused by irresponsible lending by greedy banks to Ninjas (no income, no job or assets) has been to cut interest rates to the bone and flood the economy with cheap money in the hope it’ll be used to kick start the economy.
So in other words, as I see it, in order to fix a problem caused by cheap money they’ve made money even cheaper. I often do the same thing after a big night in (I don’t go out anymore) and the inevitable skull bursting hangover.
There is easily nothing I like doing less than going to the hairdresser or doing housework. However, two enteprising companies on either side of the globe are looking into that problem for me. And by “looking into that problem”, I really mean “providing topless stylists”.
What do you reckon is shown in this picture? If you said “household dust under high-powered electron microscope”, you would be correct. A book by Brandon Broll hits us with stunning electron microscope images of insects, human body parts and household items, making even things like the bacteria on your tongue look pretty amazing. More inside.
We chatted to SKY News’ Charlotte Hawkins last week and covered a range of important topics, including Eamonn Holmes wearing his trousers on his head, Mark Longhurst being in love with her and how she decides what to wear every morning. Not to be missed!
The finance minister Pravin Gordhan is not someone you’d want to take to the U2 concert. He might allow a brief period of foot tapping during one of their 80’s classics, but mostly he’d be working out how much the tour had swelled the country’s coffers and observe the discretionary spending habits of the assembled revellers.
That’s why he’s the head bean counter, and long may that last.
In a shockingly innovative move, Dutch clothing company Suit Supply has released an ad campaign showing ruggedly handsome men wearing suits while in the company of half-naked women. Now everybody’s buzzing about how sexist the campaign is, which I’m sure has Suit Supply’s advertising department terribly upset. Maybe they’ll ask some half-naked women to calm them down. Careful, it gets quite steamy after the jump…
Wow, people are still not happy about that chick's post on Marie Claire's website about fat people 'grossing her out'. So how do the public plan on displaying their distaste? Do the exact thing that grosses her out right outside her offices.
Some might say he is a villain, to others he is a hero. Say what you want about Jordan Belfort – his story is phenomenal. Which is probably why ‘The Wolf Of Wall Street’ became a bestseller the moment it went to print. He was a multimillionaire at 26 and was in jail at 36. Fill in the gaps with yachts, jets, parties, drugs and high-class hookers. Catch him live on-air this morning! Follow link to tune in.
Axe Cop is different to every other comic, if for nothing else than it’s written by Malachai Nicolle, whose name probably means nothing to you because he is only five years old! With characters like Avocado Man and Dinosaur Soldier, it’s a shoe-in to become my new favourite thing.
Everyone’s favourtie SKY News anchor, Charlotte Hawkins, will be joining the 2oceansvibe Radio team LIVE on Thursday morning, towards the end of the breakfast show. You might recall we first made contact with Charlotte earlier on this year, via a tongue-in-cheek article about her newsroom crush..
How’s that heading? Well it is the heading that was given to an article written on Marie Claire’s website. And man oh man has it caused some fat people to get really really angry.
With the help of modern technology, I was able to jet into the future and conduct an interview with SA celebrities, Jeannie D and Loyiso! This interview should only be for publication in 2050, but I thought I would give you a taste anyway! And my goodness, have things changed around here! It seems Jeannie […]
