TechCentral's guests in this episode of the TechCentral Show believe Blue Label Telecoms and its affiliate (and soon to be subsidiary) Cell C present a compelling investment case. Philip Short, global portfolio manager at Flagship Asset Management – which counts Blue label as its sole South African investment – and Dylan Bradfield, portfolio manager at Sharenet, tell TechCentral editor Duncan McLeod that they believe the turnaround taking place at Cell C is real, and will have a meaningful impact on Blue Label shares. Blue shares, which have already rallied strongly – which have more than doubled in the past six months – could still have plenty of room to run, according to Short. In this episode of the TechCentral Show, Short and Bradfield unpack: • Blue Label's announcement earlier this month that it is considering a JSE listing for Cell C; • Why Cell C's restructured operating model and strategy makes sense, and why that's good news for Blue Label shareholders; • The role of Cell C CEO Jorge Mendes in the turnaround – and what the opportunity is for the mobile operator with its new “asset-light” model of running its network – management of its radio access network has effectively been outsourced to partners (and competitors) MTN and Vodacom; • Which operators would be most vulnerable to a resurgent Cell C; • The importance of Cell C's strategy around mobile virtual network operators and the significance of its relationship with Capitec; • The move by Blue Label to sell Comm Equipment Company to Cell C – good move or not? • Whether Cell C can compete with Telkom, Vodacom and MTN in the business market, something Mendes has signalled his desire to do; • What the listing of Cell C could look like, what management's focus should be before the listing and what kind of valuation the business could attract; and • How much more value could be unlocked for Blue Label shareholders.

Today we are live in the studio with Brad Smith from Bowhunt Downunder. Brad dropped in on his way up to Cape York and we decided to flick the mics on after dinner and have a yarn about how the 2025 rut played out and how this years environmental conditions in the lead up effected things on the ground.Before we got into the rut discussions we chewed the fat on plenty of hunting related topics that headed off down a number of rabbit holes along the way.We really enjoy conversations like this one with Brad that just flow naturally and cover what ever seems to come up along the way. It definitely had the feel like we were just sitting around the fire with a Blue Label or two yarning about all things hunting. Brad is a legend of a bloke and a legend of Bowhunting, and after getting to know him over the last few years we are proud to call him a good mate.Grab a beer and enjoy this one legends.

Ok grab a drink, sit back and relax. Today I dive into a couple of topics. Give my opinion and thoughts on them. Hope you find value in it. This whiskey world is changing and we have to adapt to it.Badmotivatorbarrels.com/shop/?aff=3https://www.instagram.com/zsmithwhiskeyandmixology?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==Patreon.com/the_whiskeyshamanThe whisky world is changing – it's time others caught upWhisky commentator Colin Hampden-White takes issue with wine writer Andrew Jefford's depiction of the whisky ‘magi'Words by Colin Hampden-White17 December 2020. https://cluboenologique.com/As someone who spends a good deal of time reading, writing, talking about – not to mention consuming – Scotch, I would probably be considered part of the whisky cognoscenti pinpointed by Andrew Jefford in his ‘tips for wine lovers whose heads are turned by whisky', published here last month. In his counsel, Andrew accuses the whisky ‘magi' of having ‘sanctified' a certain type of Scotch for ‘whisky beatitude' – single malt, ideally single-cask bottlings of ‘multitudinous finishes and aged rarities'. It's an outdated view.The proportions of my professional reference points are the inverse of Andrew's. I am a professional whisky communicator, but also a huge wine lover. I chair the Circle of Wine Writers, and still write a great deal about wine; and I can tell Andrew that the days of whisky purists considering blends to be somehow lesser fare than single malts are well and truly over – particularly in the face of such vaunted blends as Chivas' Tribute to Honour (which sells for as much as $240,000) or Diageo's £100,000 Diamond Jubilee. Further down the scale there is a plethora of premium blends, from Pernod Ricard's Royal Salute to Johnnie Walker's Blue Label. These expressions are enjoyed by single malt lovers as much as anyone, who appreciate the complexity of their creation.Acclaimed blends include Chivas' Tribute to Honour and Diageo's £100,000 Diamond JubileeRather than being elitist, the attitude of whisky purists has changed to encourage new enthusiasts of all types. The days of bartenders advocating strict ways to drink whisky and insisting upon the need to take single malt neat are over. I would never want a wine lover to be daunted by high-strength whisky, so I agree with Andrewthat adding water is a good idea – and if you asked the “whisky Magi” today, they would likely say the same. Indeed I would advocate adding as much water as you wish, to suit your taste (though don't forget that most single malt ranges, at 10 or 12 years old, come in at 40% ABV – so anyone who has enjoyed a good Martini will be very familiar with how they react to high-strength spirits).Whisky in the 1980s was not a particularly popular drink. While many people still drank Scotch, it was is no way, shape or form trendy. All that changed in the late 1990s, when a new breed of whisky drinker emerged. This consumer sought rare single malts and even single cask offerings – something the industry duly noted and promoted accordingly.Whisky may have a romantic, nostalgic image but it is attracting a more contemporary audience, says Hampden-White. Photo by Martin Scott PowellIt's your whisky, drink it however you likeIt became clear by the mid-2000s, however, that if whisky's appeal was to grow further, it would have to be introduced to the mainstream market – and that by keeping whisky exclusive and elitist, this would never happen. From that point on, the whisky industry changed its tune, and the tartan, bagpipes and cask-strength whisky had to step aside. There was a new message to anyone keen to newcomers asking how the spirit should be drunk: “It's your whisky, drink it however you like”.

Jorge Mendes has been in the hot seat at Cell C for just over a year, and the turnaround at the long-troubled mobile operator is starting to gain traction. In this episode of the TechCentral Show (TCS), Mendes sits down with TechCentral editor Duncan McLeod for a detailed interview in which he provides an update on what's happened in the past year at Cell C, paints of a picture of the state of the business today, and sets out what comes next for the mobile operator. To signal the management team's intentions, and to declare the business is on a new strategic footing and is in the market for the long term, Cell C recently refreshed its brand identity and signalled its intention to take back market share from its bigger rivals. In this episode of TCS, Mendes tackles a range of questions, including: • Why he left what seemed to be a plum job at Vodacom to take on the difficult challenge of turning around Cell C; • What went through his mind in the first few days on the job; • Cell C's plan to recapture the title of third largest mobile operator from Telkom – and to take the fight to MTN and Vodacom; • Why Cell C has struggled to compete, how it accumulated huge amounts of debt and why the new strategy is its best but last chance of success; • The state of Cell C's finances – and especially its balance sheet – following the recent recapitalisation led by its largest shareholder, Blue Label Telecoms; • His relationship with Blue Label founders and co-CEOs Brett Levy and Mark Levy; • The role of regulatory support, especially in call termination; • Why Cell C handed back the spectrum it secured in the 2022 spectrum auction, and its plans for participation in future auctions; • The role of mobile virtual network operators and wholesale services in Cell C's recovery plan; and • Cell C's strategy to capture more of the lucrative contract market. There's plenty more in the interview with Mendes – don't miss the conversation! TechCentral

When JSE-listed Blue Label Telecoms released its annual results two weeks ago, it showed its core business continuing to grow at a respectable pace. Yet investors dumped the share, worried about a lack of disclosure about Cell C's performance. Now, in an exclusive interview with the TechCentral Show (TCS), the company's founders and co-CEOs, brothers Brett and Mark Levy, have spelt out exactly why they believe investors have punished the share, why they decided not to publish numbers for Cell C (this time around), and what their strategy is for the long-troubled mobile operator after the completion last year of its second recapitalisation in six years. In the interview, Mark Levy looks back to the founding of the company more than 20 years ago, how it pivoted into cellular airtime, and its listing on the JSE. The conversation later shifts to a detailed discussion with Brett Levy on Cell C. He answers a wide range of questions, including: • Why did Blue Label buy Cell C in the first place? • What went wrong after the first recap? • What's stop things going awry again at Cell C? • Why is Blue Label pursuing a controlling stake in the mobile operator? • What's the potential upside at Cell C? • Just how important is the mobile virtual network operator business? (Cell C recently concluded an MVNO deal with Capitec.) The brothers also tackle the difficulty in understanding Blue Label's results, driven by the highly complex restructuring at Cell C. They tackle these questions: • Shouldn't Blue Label be doing more to make its results understandable to shareholders, especially ordinary investors? • Doesn't buying control of Cell C expose Blue Label to even greater potential risk? • What's the outlook for Blue Label's core business? • What are the exciting growth areas in the core business, such as betting/gaming? • Is Blue Label mulling a buyout of minorities and a delisting from the JSE? Don't miss the most detailed and information-packed interview the Levy brothers have given in years.

Dylan Bradfield, portfolio manager at Sharenet, provides some excellent investment pointers, basing his view on the strong potential for a rotation of investment from US assets to Emerging Markets - including South Africa. Bradfield highlights the recent popularity of the JSE, driven by the weakening dollar and increased interest in retailers, insurers, and banks. He believes that South African stocks are highly attractive value propositions, with cheap fundamentals and the potential for a significant upward move as global markets allocate more capital to the country. Bradfield also provides the case for buying Telkom and Blue Label.

Spare a thought for Douglas Craigie Stevenson. The Cell C CEO is leading one of the most complex and difficult business turnarounds in South African corporate history. Craigie Stevenson tells TechCentral's Duncan McLeod in this episode of TC|Daily that it's been a stressful few years for the company's management team, but that the long-delayed but recently concluded recapitalisation of the mobile operator's balance sheet has finally put it on a much more sustainable footing. It could all have gone pear-shaped, but Cell C's stakeholders, including its bondholders and its shareholders, have stuck with the business, believing, he says, that, despite its troubles, there is real underlying value that was worth saving. Unlike the previous recap, which did little to solve Cell C's balance sheet woes, Craigie Stevenson explains in the interview that a new strategy and operating model - one in which the company doesn't try to compete with bigger rivals MTN and Vodacom in capital spending - means that it isn't going to repeat the mistakes of the past. That doesn't mean, though, that there isn't still hard work ahead for Craigie Stevenson, his leadership team and Cell C employees, but at least the operator is no longer facing the prospect of going bust. In this episode of TC|Daily, Craigie Stevenson discusses: * Cell C's balance sheet after the recap and what it will look like three years from now and why. * Why Cell C was worth saving. * How Cell C works with Blue Label, its largest shareholder. * How Cell C's strategy differs from its rivals, and what that means for consumers. * The progress in shutting down the company's radio access network and what's involved in the project. * Who Cell C wants as a customer, and why consumers should choose Cell C over its rivals. * The importance of mobile virtual network operators to its business. * The importance of having the right company culture. * Whether MTN's proposed acquisition of Telkom should be allowed to proceed. It's a fascinating discussion - don't miss it!

This weeks guest is Rose Fernando who joins us from London England. A whisky aficionado and a former Johhnie Walker Experience Ambassador, Rose has an extensive knowledge of all things whisky. Rose's Bio in her own words: My name is Rose Fernando and I am a massive Johnnie Walker fan, of the blend and of the history. I first was introduced to Johnnie Walker as a rebellious teen and hated it and wondered who would ever drink it (clearly it took a little while for my palate to refine). At the age of 28 I received my first bottle of Blue Label and had a dram of it instantly. The richness of the whisky, all its subtleties and aromas, I was a changed woman. I started learning more and more about the whisky process and learning more and more about the blend and history of Johnnie Walker. Fast forward 3.5 years and I now have more than 200 bottles in my private collection, more than 400 newspaper and magazine prints dating from 1909 and endless branded merchandise all related to Johnnie Walker. I was able to be on the team when Johnnie Walker Princess Street opened their doors last year but due to health reasons, I wasn't able to stay for long and soon found myself back in London. If you have any questions about the brand, my collection or questions in general, please feel free to follow and send me a DM @roses.johnniewalker Links @roses.johnniewalker @sugarrunbar @babylonsistersbar Little Mushroom Catering @littlemushroomcatering @the_industry_podcast email us: info@theindustrypodcast.club Podcast Artwork by Zak Hannah zakhannah.com

Johnnie Walker hiện nay sở hữu một kho tàng whisky đầy phong cách, nguyên bản, và đặc trưng.

We've finally returned! It's been a long time, and we were all in person, and we had a special guest! Joining us was young Miss Gaby Penaherrera, star of the short film Move On. And because this is the 100th episode, we reviewed the 100th episode of the following iconic TV shows: Law & Order: SVU, The X-Files, The Office, and Star Trek: The Next Generation. Why four TV shows, you ask? Because we had four Johnnie Walker whiskeys to sample, that's why! Black Label, Gold Label Reserve, Johnnie Walker 18, and Blue Label. Needless to say, much fun was had, many tangents were achieved, and lots of good whiskey was imbibed. Tune in to this marathon, pick up one of the aforementioned whiskeys (or all of them), sample them, compare your grades to ours, and enjoy the ride. Cheers!!!
