The Flash Drive team (and listeners) takes a nostalgic classic and gives it a proudly 2026 glow-up. Inspired by Baz Luhrmann’s iconic spoken word hit Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen), Carl and the crew present The Flash Drive 2026 Edition. Expect tongue-in-cheek life advice, local flavour, modern chaos, and the oddly specific wisdom. It is part satire, part social commentary, and fully Flash Drive energy. If sunscreen was the advice for the 90s, what do we actually need in 2026? Take a listen and take notes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode, Carl Wastie sits down with Ethan Stander, the brains behind Grocify, the app helping South Africans track down the cheapest grocery deals without the hassle. Ethan shares how Grocify started as a simple solution to help his girlfriend's mom with her weekly shop, and how it’s growing into a powerful retail tool changing the way consumers compare prices. From smart, algorithm-driven comparisons to factoring in petrol costs to make sure you’re really saving, Grocify is built for real-life budgets. It’s an insightful chat about tech, entrepreneurship, and building something that genuinely makes a difference in your community.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome to the flash Drive on KFM ninety four point five. In this episode, we're talking about life, love, and everything in between. Carl and Cassidy dive into a listener's question about bank statements and trust, and offer some sage advice on how to navigate tricky situations. We also meet Roxanne, who's got a knack for accents and impressions, and play a fun game with her to see if she can guess the concept behind two mystery words. Plus, we've got a special segment with a new car sales executive, Young Ku, who's got some impressive skills in the flash word game.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Carl catches up with COOKtastic's Ello Mbuyi and Jacqui from The Dis-Chem Foundation. Two years ago, right here on the Flash Drive, the Dis-Chem Foundation introduced us to an extraordinary, female-led NPO called COOKtastic. Today, we’re revisiting that story. Because what the Dis-Chem Foundation did for COOKtastic wasn’t about a once-off donation. It’s about what happened after… COOKtastic empowers young people from underserved communities by giving them the opportunity to train, work and build careers in the hospitality industry. Every year, more than 75 young people have their lives changed through this programme. And while they’re learning, the food they prepare doesn’t go to waste. It goes home with them. In 2024, the Dis-Chem Foundation stepped in, and that support allowed COOKtastic to do so much more! Let’s find out what that investment made possible…See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode of The Flash Drive, Carl Wastie is joined by Cassidy Nicholson for a conversation that’s equal parts chaos and heart. From a listener’s wildly creative scheme to get more food and Carl's need for free eggs from a chicken farm to an honest chat about self-love, nothing is off limits. Carl and Cassidy also unpack the beauty of embracing your own unique well-being rituals and why community makes everything better. It’s funny, a little unhinged, surprisingly wholesome and a reminder to stay true to yourself and find joy in the small stuff.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode of The Flash Drive, Carl and Cassidy dive into the wild, weird and wonderful ways people fall in love. Listeners share the unexpected places they met their partners, from an ice rink to a crime scene. It is proof that love really can find you anywhere. They also chat about the importance of taking time for yourself and your relationship, and why intentional escapes like a cosy midweek cabin stay can make all the difference. Plus, it gets hilariously awkward with a round of Pick Up Lines, including some gloriously cheesy ones you could try at a car dealership. Romance, ridiculousness and real talk, all in one episode.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
