Just a quick reach-around to say a big thank you to our readers for another epic year. Yip – that’s right – we’re signing off now..
Seth, my dear boy, I fear this is a runaway fire, a full-blown emergency, fueled in equal parts by fear, greed and rampant semigration.
Another rabbit hole has recently opened up in Cape Town.
One can now understand why a word as silly as ‘silly’ is used to describe these end-of-year scenes. It’s because we’re using a phrase from the 19th century.
The fact that they were braaiing means it’s likely a South African vessel, but with dodgy Russian ships loading and offloading something in the night, and the SA Armed Forces apparently not being able to keep a canteen running, we can be forgiven for being curious.
While pretending to change a lightbulb, Seth managed to get in some great pictures of the track and stands being assembled, for your exclusive viewing pleasure.
If you want to blend in, you’ll have to think like a local. We’re here to help.
Nadal loves that f$@#*% towel.
They have become the Kardashians of the footwear industry, and much like the dysfunctional TV family, they just won’t go away.
There are many ways we evaluate the ‘state of the vibe’. The vibe encompasses everything from business, family and friendships, to the weather and loadshedding. The vibe is a feeling, like Plett.
2oceansvibe is now on leave until January 6, 2020. Allow me the chance to wish you a fond farewell as we look ahead to the next decade.
Oh my God – was 2017 even real? Here’s Seth’s end of year address from his hideout in the Karoo.
There’s a knowing nod I often share with fellow FT Weekend readers. An understanding that we have mutually found and enjoy the greatest broadsheet weekend read in the world. And if you think it’s all about finance, you’re horrifically mistaken.
If you logged onto 2oceansvibe today expecting to get your fix you would have been disappointed. Chill out, we’re back and ready to rumble.
I landed at Boston’s Logan International Airport earlier this week, before I settle into my studies at Harvard Business School.
There’s been a lot of talk about the all-new, all-electric Freeboards that you see cruising around town. I managed to get my hands on one and this is the result.
If you’ve ever wondered about the man behind the 2OV brand, the guy who really pulls the strings, then you’re in luck. It’s the elusive Seth Rotherham in the flesh.
When I started 2oceansvibe 13 years ago, I didn’t have a plan. I didn’t know I would one-day have half a million readers every month and sponsors and a successful business. But I knew something would come of it. As it ‘bizarrely’ always does..
Had it been a few years earlier when Ruda was anchoring TV’s Carte Blanche alongside Derek Watts, Seth would have probably panicked at the prospect of being interviewed. Luckily the circumstances were more relaxed, in this revealing interview. Ruda is doing a series of interviews for Brightrock’s ‘Change Exchange‘ – finding out about those distinct […]
So this guy, Rick, contacts me and says he bought ‘Work is a sideline, Live the holiday’ and has had great success implementing the ideas, tips and strategies I gave in SA’s next bestseller. Listen to this.
It’s always confused me why so many people have multiple pairs of shoes, shirts, pants and socks – but then one pair of shades. Surely you should be paying more attention to the thing people see the most – your face?
We’ve issued a second print run of Seth’s book, ‘Work is a sideline. Live the holiday..’ after just two weeks and have noticed the first reviews have arrived. Check it out..
The amount of scam websites and oversized confusing ‘guides’ to making money on the internet or ‘understanding e-commerce’ has given most of us a cynical view on any kind of advice peddled on the net. That’s all about to change.
Seth told us to write about this one, we have no idea what he is on about but we know he has a keen eye for anything awesome, even if no one else has realised that it is awesome yet. Of course that’s not the case here….
The late Philip Seymour Hoffman was undoubtedly an enigma. Actor and director, this man was pure Hollywood gold. One scene we have to admit just gets us going shows him relishing every drop of grease off a slice of pizza whilst involved in a diatribe with the legend known as Ben Stiller, in the similarly […]
In a civilised society, there are not many excuses people have to punch one another in the face. But I can think of a few.
I’d say it’s been a good week. I’ve been enjoying my new driver, who carts me around town from one important meeting to the next – usually with people of distinction. You know, “stakeholders” and “opinion leaders.” Such is the hand I’ve been dealt.
Today we discuss why we haven’t declared summer open, rinsing dishes before loading a dishwasher and presidents being kidnapped and assassinated.
I’m sad I missed the Mayweather fight on Sunday. In fact I did very badly this weekend and missed the rugby, too. Thought it was at 5pm – turns out it was in the morning. Blind.
I was given the heads up this afternoon that local DJ, Damian “Dplanet” Stephens had created a meme from a photo of me with two friends. Check out the gallery below. Which one do you reckon’s best?
