Joburg, we got a letter from Rechelle: ''Dear Anele and the Club, Today I am writing this to you with so much faith that it would reach your team. One of my closest friends Jermaine Naidoo (M), 36 years old was diagnosed with Cerebellar ataxia 4 years ago and was medically boarded off from work, a very rare disease with unfortunately no cure, and unlike many other dreaded diseases this isn’t a disease that has a high mortality rate, but instead drastically impacts ones quality of life in terms of walking, movement and speech basically causing them to be almost like a vegetable. This disease is hereditary, and Jermaine’s dad was also diagnosed many years ago and was medically boarded off from work too. Jermaine’s mom works 2 days a week and his sister is the only one with a stable average income however she is a single mom to a 3 year old. Jermaine has always been the clown of the friend group, the one making us all laugh and honestly the one friend who would do anything to help anyone, and it has broken my heart to see how much this disease has taken from him, his confidence, his jovial spirit and his faith. Today I am asking if the city can help me make Jermaine and his dads life a little easier by renovating their 2 bathrooms to be more disabled friendly, also the main entrance of their home has stairs which ideally would need to be a ramp. I know this a long shot, but I know I had to try." See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The South African comedy community is in mourning as we all found out about the passing of Ebenhaezer Dibakwane this weekend. Ebenhaezer was beloved by everyone in SA comedy and touched the lives of countless people with his infectious energy. Eb was a truly original thinker who never shied away from his truth.I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing Eb at his flat in Joburg in early 2020 before COVID hit. To this day, it's one of the most honest interviews I've ever done and has stuck with me ever since. We do speak rather candidly about some very dark topics, so this may be a bit too heavy for some people to listen to right now. Still, I think it's important to know who Eb was and how he thought, and I think this conversation helps do that through his own words.The original interview has been edited to sound a bit better as the original recording isn't great. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
