Bored yet? When Will The Great Zombie Bubble Burst? – Here’s a no-brainer: The zombie infestation, both at the box office and on book shelves, meant it was only a matter of time before the critters shuffled over to the small screen. And shuffle they have, with not one but two new miniseries set to […]
If you don’t know the band by now you might need to catch a wake up. NME Magazine said this about them, “This is the best rock record of the year by such a margin that you actually feel rather embarrassed for everybody else. This isn’t over-excitement. In 2010’s final act, consider rock’n’roll saved.” the video won’t be on YouTube for the next 24 hours – JUST HERE! Watch their new video – exclusive to 2oceansvibe in SA, after the jump!

I hope you get this in time because it is off the hizzo! It’s the Rip Curl Pro and if Kelly Slater wins he gets his 10th title and will retire. If South Africa’s Jordy Smith wins, he will be number 1 in the world! What a beautiful way to see the afternoon through! Tune in after the jump!
In a story with the headline I’ve waited my whole life to write, the future Mr Katy Perry has been referred to as “pointless” by one of Britain’s most celebrated talk show hosts and, perhaps most crushingly, had his talents compared to those of an acting dog.
There was much excitement the other day after we posted a picture of the man who is affectionately known as ‘Papa Smurf.’ He was dominating Rocking The Daisies at the time, and since then we have received a deluge of emails and pics. So we thought we would jump on board the P-Train and give you a whole lot of this Cape Town legend. After the jump.
The Dutch are an interesting bunch and certainly do have a unique sense of humour. In this case it is hard to tell whether the guy needing the loo is a prankster or not. He’s either a legend or an idiot. Either way, it doesn’t matter – the result is hilarious. Check out the video after the jump.
2oceansvibe has long had a special relationship with Kommetjie and the people that dwell therein. Shit, the main reason why we have a surf report on 2oceansvibe Radio is to look after the Kom Skom and the 2oceansvibe Characters that surf that place ‘stukkend.’ And that’s why we’re urging you to show your support for the ‘Save Kommetjie’ campaign. They’re throwing a party. A MASSIVE party.
The image you see here is a familiar sight, I have no doubt. You usually bow your head when the envelope arrives in the post, open it slowly and immediately your eyes dart to the value of the fine. Once that is done, there is hopefully a photograph taken at the scene of the crime, with you in the car as you drove over the speed trap. But what if it wasn’t you? What if it was no-one?
In you’re in the loop you’ll know that Thursday’s on 2oceansvibe Radio include the live movie review with Spling in the studio.

Welcome to 2010, little embryo.. Baby Born From 20-Year-Old Frozen Embryo – Cryopreservation was once the domain of sci-fi novels and B-rate movies. (Think Encino Man.) But it’s increasingly real, as the recent birth of a healthy boy from a frozen embryo created 20 years earlier shows. The birth, which is reported in a study […]
In an announcement that has shocked no one, a Hollywood actress has admitted to using cocaine. What is interesting, however, is that this particular Hollywood actress is Carrie Fisher and she admits to using the drug while filming the second Star Wars film, The Empire Strikes Back, on the set of the Ice Planet. The Empire Strikes Back? More like Return of the Get High! Am I right? Zing!
The Switch is not what you’re expecting. Whenever someone starts sloshing a cup of sperm around, everyone immediately flashes back to There’s Something About Mary with Ben Stiller’s vanishing sperm act and Cameron Diaz’s extra strength “hair gel”. Yes, there is a masturbation scene… and no, you don’t get to see Jason Bateman yanking the […]
To put my opinion of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo into perspective: I read it recently while in the chianti wine region of Tuscany. My daily itinerary consisted of nothing but sitting next to the pool, drinking cocktails and soaking up the sun. Reading The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo very nearly ruined that entire experience for me. Now, there is another, previously unpublished book. God help us all.
Luckily this is a scenario that I’ve never had to deal with, as my mom refuses to go on Facebook. Unfortunately, for most of you, this is not the reality. It’s for those of you who have to deal with this problem on a daily basis that I give to you: The Damn It, My Mom’s On Facebook Filter.
Either Yolandi and Ninja are writing a Die Antwoord-esque love letter to a friend named Dirk, or their website has been hacked. Lines of text stating, “Dirk F*cks Whores” cover the screen, and the source points to a hacker named “poesgesig”. Really? You hacked Die Antwoord’s website and you couldn’t post the eff word in it’s entirety?
While the rest of us will have to wait a whole five years until we can get our hands on a pair of 2015 self-lacing Nike Mags like Marty McFly, anyone with $12,000 – $15,000 to spend can get their hands on the originals next month. Personally, I’m saving my money for a Mattel Hoverboard.

There are many different traffic light systems employed today. There is, of course, the very successful and highly regarded precursor to all of the traffic light systems, the traffic light. Then there’s Everything Everywhere’s take on the traffic light.
Cape locals Glenn Ward and Dries Millard are about to embark on a road trip of epic proportions – they’ll be undertaking a marathon trek from Saldanha to Cape Town. That’s a distance of 142km. Now I don’t know about you, but the daily trip to the water cooler is a significant achievement for me. Oh yeah, small detail. They’ll be doing it in wheel chairs.
A big thanks to the readers of 2oceansvibe who have welcomed our new look and structure with open arms! And the proof is in the pudding, as we see 2oceansvibe jumping to top position on the ‘Top Ranked’ list on Afrigator, ahead of Mail & Guardian’s ‘Thoughtleader’ offering. Nicely.
You gotta love the monsters of Sesame Street! Just last week they were in the dwang for ripping off Katy Perry, now this week they’re having a go at the Old Spice ad. You know, the one with the guy on a horse. They did it well – very funny indeed! Check out the video..
Is it McDonald’s fault that more than 63 percent of Americans are overweight or obese, making them the fattest nation in the history of the world? Check out this advert that might get them thinking.
My fellow 1800 fans will be pleased to hear that they have launched their new Summer Menu! And they’re doing it properly too, with a ridiculous new R169 Summer Menu Promotion. Unbelievably, that includes a glass of sparkling, starter, 200g rump (or sirloin of rib-eye) + signature sauce, dessert and underground parking at my residence, The Cape Royale Hotel!
In a story that will make you ask just what the hell you’ve done with your life, a Chinese man who lost both of his arms at age 10, has gone on to win China’s Got Talent. By playing the piano.
If you ever saw the series Friday Night Lights, you should know about Minka Kelly. To recap, she was the one you were in love with. And not just talking to the guys – even the most jealous girl out there couldn’t hate Minka. She’s too cute. All the photos (and video!) after the jump.
The more trendy of our London ex-pats will know of Carluccio’s Caffès – a great place to meet over a drink and simple well-prepared Italian food, made on the premises. Although one extra thing seems to have been added to their New Bond Street Carluccio’s menu – something that certainly is Italian and hand-made, but not right there on the premises!
