Thanks for listening to this episode of Pagecast, brought to you by Jonathan Ball Publishers.  Today's podcast features the Jonathan Ancer and his latest book Bullshit: 50 Fibs That Made South Africa. An outrageous miscellany of lies, myths, untruths, fibs and fabrications that tell the woeful history of South Africa. Aimed at offending and entertaining everyone in equal measure, this will have South Africans sniggering and spluttering into their porridge. It will also pique their curiosity. The lies come thick and fast, like a burst sewerage pipe. Way, way back the Europeans ‘discovered' southern Africa and found a land that was largely uninhabited. Um, no. On the other hand, Africa was a paradise before the settlers pulled in. Not quite! Back in the darkest of ages (the 1970s!), citizens were told that there were Satanic messages if you played The Beatles songs backwards. During the civil war in Angola, there were no South African troops in that country. National icon Hansie Cronje was a paragon of virtue and integrity … until he wasn't. President Nelson Mandela told us that we, as a nation, were ‘special'. Turns out we aren't. Jonathan Ancer has written, after consulting with historians and barflies, a fascinating and witty collection of the lies we've been told – and the lies we tell ourselves. In this episode, Jonathan is in conversation with Rebecca Davis, Senior Journalist at the Daily Maverick and author. Enjoy!

In 2002, Hansie Cronje, the disgraced former captain of South African cricket, tragically died in a plane crash aged only 32. I was on the tour in early 2000 in India where Cronje played his last two matches for South Africa - after which the match-fixing scandal emerged.Cronje was accused of accepting money from bookmakers in India to throw cricket matches.At first the allegations were denied by Cronje. But soon it became clear that there was more to this story than met the eye. Hansie was found guilty of match fixing, which brought his professional playing career to an untimely end. In 2019 I met Hansie's sister, Esther to learn the truth behind her brother Hansie – the former golden boy of South African cricket. The following extract I wrote for my book from my book, Vuvuzela Dawn.
