My talk show, a place to ramble and have genuine conversations about whatever I think people should talk about more often
I promised some light hearted content, and at long last we're here Welcome back to WWYT in 2025, we've spent a lot of time discussing every gripe and issue I have with every little thing, and the idea of discussing something that genuinely leaves me happy more than it leaves me upset is a gift and today's guest couldn't have fit better for that discussionMore episodes are on their way, hopefully you enjoy the podcast this year more than any otherHappy listening
If you've ever tried to do anything slightly difficult, unless you're just built that different there would probably be a moment where you experience some doubt. When it comes to imposter syndrome, it seems to me that people deal with it, or speak about it rather in hindsight or just extremely privately, and I think more people would benefit from hearing people speak about it. Hopefully this short and sweet version of the episode does something for you guys Part 2 of this episode is on its way, happy holidays, catch you guys next year
In this episode of Reel Talks, Khanya Mosetlhi and Lesiba delve into Zoe Kravitz's directorial debut, Blink Twice. They discuss their initial impressions of the film, its themes, character development, and the impact of the ending. The conversation also touches on the differences between watching films in a cinema versus at home, and how this affects the viewer's experience. The discussion also touches on the idea of justice and forgiveness, questioning the complexities of retributive justice in the context of the film's characters.
This episode is a particularly important one for me for a variety of reasons. It feels like this show is a bit closer to feeling like an actual show, I got to record this at home, and most importantly the topic is something that I've wanted to do for a while.As general a topic as it is, the internet, and social media have impacted my life and I'd imagine the lives of a lot of people massively, I think everyone is more or less still navigating exactly how they'd like to make use of social media, making sense of multiple accounts, differing levels of openness around what they share on social media, while for some people its entirely about using it to try and build a profile or make money, I don't think there's really one "right" way to use it but it is something I do genuinely enjoy hearing about when people are willing to share where they stand around it all Hopefully you guys enjoy the episode Catch the visuals on YouTube!
In this episode, Lesiba and Khanya discuss their thoughts on the Bad Boys franchise, specifically focusing on Bad Boys 3 and 4. They also discuss Martin Lawrence's performance and speculate on the reasons behind his apparent decline. Lesiba and Khanya discuss their thoughts on the movie Bad Boys 4. They highlight the positives, seeing Rhea Seahorn from Better Call Saul on the big screen ,they also discuss the potential for Vanessa Hudgens to break out of her high school musical image and showcase her acting skills. All in all, not a movie worth the trip to the cinema, but at least we've watched it for you
In this episode, Khanya interviews Dougie Critchley, a football broadcaster and presenter. They discuss Dougie's journey in the industry, the challenges of breaking into football broadcasting, and the importance of persistence and creating a body of work. They also touch on the need for diversity in football media and the tribalism of fans on social media.
Today's episode features Scott Domes. He works as a somatic coach . I reckon a lot of people are reluctant to try and pursue therapy and considering how helpful it can be when it works, I thought that interviewing someone who works in a different kind of therapy might be interesting for you guys to hear about.
Around this time last year I did an episode on forgiveness with Bayanda Nyoka. Today's episode focuses on the same topic but in a much broader sense and from a much more personal angle on my side and for my guest Malcom. Good level of balance, very serious episode but there's room for a chuckle or two as well. Happy listening
The title is a work in progress. Today's episode features the resident movie expert, Lesiba Mohlala again as we discuss the recently released movie, Challengers. Zendaya, take a bow. Episode features a call to action so please do have a listen, think this new series is going to be lots of fun, and a lot more light hearted as promised. Let me know what you think!
Life requires that you put yourself out there in a variety of contexts, in friendships, relationships, professionally, there's no aspect of life where you don't risk rejection. This series involves different guests answering the question: “What is the most difficult “no” you've had to receive?” How they bounced back from it and their general outlook around rejection
In the latest episode Thando and I talk about how much she believes in balance. For what it's worth, I think it exists, I just think it's incredibly difficult to actually get there, but it's there, just something that takes a lot of time. Give it a listen, let me know what you think, enjoy the episode!
Today's episode was meant to be a follow up to the episode with Tasneem but instead Lesiba and I spoke about a variety of other things that come with going after what you're passionate about, for what it's worth I think that this version of the episode will bring you more than the one we'd planned for. Let me know what you think when you hear it, enjoy the episode
In the latest episode, joined by Tasneem we discuss what trying to find balance has looked like in her life, how she's made her move towards pursuing her passions while weighing up the practicalities of life. I think “balance” is a dream, and life is ultimately about choosing one thing or another, but maybe not always. Hopefully this episode brings you closer to clarity on the idea, one way or another
My latest guest Malcom walks us through his journey in football, the highs and the lows, how he's juggled parental expectation vs his own and how he plans to move forward. One of my personal favourite episodes. Happy listening
In this episode, Rufaro and I explore whether the goals set in our early twenties still hold the same significance as we navigate the complexities of adulthood. Being ambitious is a really loosely good thing, too much of it alienates you from people, too little and you don't achieve your potential Being too content with yourself can sometimes mean that you don't strive as much, but surely the point of it all isn't to always be striving and reaching? Or should it? I think the ideal is somewhere in the middle but I think hearing about it is far more interesting than reading about it. Tune in and let me know what you think! Happy Listening
Part 2 is here as promised with my guest Tori. She walks us through her understanding of accountability and how she's made sense of holding herself and others accountable. Thoroughly enjoyed making this one, hope you guys like it even more. Happy Listening
I've been trying to find the best way to explore accountability for a while and this episode serves as my first attempt at looking at with my returning guest Babs. Episode 2 drops on Wednesday as usual. Let me know what you think. Hope you enjoy the episode
In today's episode, we dive headfirst into the interplay between luck and choices. My guest, Thulani Dlamini and I make an attempt to make sense of the impact that luck has on our lives and the choices we make. Whether you're a believer in fate or in free will, I'd like to think this episode is something you'd like to hear
Today's episode is one that you might have heard before or seen before if you were following the podcast last year, it's an episode with Babalwa Manyi as she launched her own channel, and we discussed what navigating our lives is like. Found parts of this very funny when listening back because of how much has changed in a year, I hope you guys enjoy listening back to this as much as I did.
You've heard one person share their experience and today we've got Sbu Mthembu walking us through what it was like for him to start liking himself, he walks us through his perspective on identity, what he'd have done differently at 18 and his experiences with people, in what we hope is a really fun listen for all of you. Happy Listening
Beginner's Luck, A Lucky Break, and Pushing Your Luck, there are quite a few phrases and beliefs around how luck plays a role in people's lives, and today's guest: Cairo Mathebula, walks us through her understanding of the concept of luck and the question: How Big a Role Does Luck Play in Your Life? Let me know how you feel about the episode. Happy Listening
Everyone has their own ideas around what intelligence is or how someone understands somebody else to be an intelligent person. In today's episode my guest Qiniso Cele and I discuss what it means to the two of us. An ideally looser and less intense listen than our most recent episodes, hopefully a fun one for you. Happy Listening
In the latest episode of Who Would You Tell Palesa Maloisane takes the plunge as we finally have someone brave enough to help us answer a question I've been asking guests since May, “when did you first start to like yourself?” Life requires a lot of self acceptance, whether it's physical, or mental everyone battles with liking every aspect of themselves, nobody has loved every decision they've made, nobody has loved themselves at every single point of their lives. I haven't always been that big a fan of myself, so in today's episode we're going into what that's like. Happy listening
In this episode, we delve into the complex concept of forgiveness, and how it's applied. Whether it's forgiving others, oneself, or even circumstances, Bayanda and I attempt to figure out what forgiveness really is. Happy listening
In today's episode, Vicky and myself delve deep into the complexities of friendship and its inevitable transformations. We discuss her experiences with friendships ending and what her understanding of friendship has become and how it's changed in the past few years.
It takes a village. How seriously do you take friendship? In the beginning of this new series, Sanele and I discuss what friendship means to him and how's he attempted to navigate it as an adult
Today's episode is the first I've done with my mother Gugu Sepamla, she is my biggest inspiration, incredibly intelligent, driven, and every once in a while kind of funny. Hope you guys enjoy listening to the episode
In a continuation of the topic opened previously, today's guest Nandi Jakuja is a curator, an incredibly open and daring person and I think she's really funny. In my eyes she is 100% an adult and is the perfect person to talk us through her journey into adulthood
A returning guest! In the most recent episode, Lesiba Mohlala shares his views on social media and his experiences, the importance of a "third place" and engaging with your actual day to day life
Today's guest is Lesiba Mohlala. He's a playwright, tv writer, and aspiring film director, a man with many hats, and a very close friend of mine, he's accomplished quite a bit so far but there's still a lot of uncertainty, that exists, in today's episode we discuss what it means to be an adult and how much of an adult he is. As always, thank you for listening.
Today's episode features Litha Soci, an actor, a student, a guest who's had quite the journey considering his age. He has ever so kindly shared his story with us today.

An unstructured attempt at talking about the most unpleasant experience in the world. Featuring Ambesiwe Mbatsha
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year! It's been a while, I know but the content is well thought out, it takes a minute. Hopefully this episode makes up for it. Got at least one other episode coming out this month and two more in April
With the year at an end, this series comes to its conclusion. The podcast isn't done but I'd hope my point is captured. Figuring out where your life is going or what it is you're “meant” to be doing isn't that simple, and it doesn't need to be. Most people trying to go the alternative route don't know, or operate with a level of unmoving certainty that keeps them going, but they do what they do because it inspires them. In this episode I'm joined by the person who would have originally been my second guest. Tinashe Sibeko. Head sound engineer of FTL. A talented and educated friend of mine, as he gives us a small look into his journey. Thank you for listening
Been a while but I'd say it's definitely worth the wait. In this episode I've been joined by Thando Phenyane and we've discussed his journey as he's gone after what he's most passionate about, how he manages himself and his goals. As always, available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and all other streaming sites. Link available in my bio. Thank you for listening
Another guest! Today I've had the pleasure of having Sithenkosi Mbuli (Rudy Chalmers) as ally guest as we discussed his decision to pursue music as his career, how he got there and and how he feels about other people taking that step for themselves. Minor sound issues to address this week, but I hope the point still comes across clearly! Enjoy it
This is the first episode as part of a series focused on the different ways people find out what it is they want to do as careers outside of what they would traditionally be expected to do. I was joined today by Giovanna Casanova and Mikhail Brown. I hope it's helpful
It’s been a while, this episode is a more loose discussion on death and grief with Njabulo Swana as my guest. Hope you enjoy it
Episode 3 is most likely a part 1 on my views on mortality, my approach to it, and it’s a more personal episode, as well
This is episode 2 and the topic today is Cancel Culture. In light of everything that happened in September, I feel that this is a topic worth discussing and exploring further, my guest is someone I consider incredibly intelligent, so recording this episode made a lot of sense to me. Let me know what you think of the episode
This is episode 1, and is mainly aimed at providing an intro to my podcast, a rough explanation of what I’m gonna be talking about, and what the podcast is going to be. Give it a listen, let me know what you think
