Analysts predict that the ANC's stance regarding corruption accused members may not bode well for the party in future. This comes after former Sports, Arts and Culture Minister, Zizi Kodwa, was sworn in as a Member of Parliament for the ANC on Tuesday (25 June). This is despite corruption allegations levelled against Kodwa and his appearance in court earlier this month. However, at its special NEC meeting in March, the ANC decided to allow public representatives who have stepped aside to attend sittings of the legislative bodies and committees. Kodwa subsequently resigned from his ministerial post and as a member of the ANC's National Executive Committee. However, it appears that he may still occupy public office despite the ANC's step-aside resolution. Zoleka Qodashe compiled this report...

In his first podcast monologue Peter Bruce takes his Podcasts from the Edge into new realms. Basically because a guest didn't pitch up he wonders pout loud when President Cyril “The Vanisher” Ramaphosa's reshuffle is going to happen or even if it ever will. Rumours have Gwede Mantashe keeping his job as energy minister. Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, according to some reports, may stay. One because she made it back on to the National Executive Committee after failing to topple Ramaphosa from the party leadership and NEC members need to be sucked up to by ANC leaders and, two, because her vast, deft and sensitive handling of the covid State of Disaster make her an ideal candidate to run the next one, the energy one that the NEC told Ramaphosa they want him to declare. With a very nasty election coming down the road next year, and the near certainty he is going to lose it, Cyril's instinct is to make himself a largely indistinguishable part of a crowd. Like a State of Disaster Command Council. Anonymous polls at the weekend have the ANC polling 37% nationally the week before. Why anonymous? Probably because they're DA polls and our sterling opposition never leaks anything.

Love this pod! A perfect pod for people who love the genre! Thanks mxsandy Todays author on Lost Sci-Fi led an interesting life. He was a popular and prolific author starting his sci-fi career with the short story Isolationist which ran in the April 1950 edition of Fantastic Adventures magazine. Fantastic Adventures got its start in 1939 and was almost cancelled in 1940 but the October issue that year had unexpectedly good sales so the magazine continued until March 1953. Our author sold another 6 stories to Fantastic Adventures in 1950 and 12 more in 1950 which were published in Out of This World Adventures, Startling Stories, Fantastic Adventures and others. A year later his first novel hit store shelves in 1951 titled The Case of the Little Green Men. It's believed that the first use of the term Little Green Men in reference to extraterrestrials in a newspaper dates back to 1908. It can be found in the oldest newspaper in Maine the Daily Kennebec Journal. The 1951 novel The Case of the Little Green Men is available on Amazon in both paperback and Kindle formats. A decade would pass before this author would release another novel in 1961. There were 22 novels in the 60s, 35 in the 70s and 10 more in the 1980s. In addition to his almost 70 novels, he wrote almost 200 short stories. Born Dallas McCord Reynolds on November 11th, 1917, in Corcoran, California, he is best known as Mack Reynolds but like most of his successful contemporaries he had a variety of pen names, including Dallas Ross, Mark Mallory, Clark Collins, Guy McCord, Maxine Reynolds, Bob Belmont, and Todd Harding. His family moved to Baltimore in 1918 and his father became a member of the Socialist Labor Party or SLP. He joined the Socialist Labor Party while he was still in high school and shortly thereafter began touring the country with his father giving lectures and speeches about SLP. His father Verne La Rue Reynolds was the Socialist Labor Party Presidential Candidate in both 1928 and 1932. After graduation Reynolds began his writing career as a reporter for the Catskill Morning Star and then as editor of the weekly Oneonta News. He moved back to California and continued his work for the Socialist Labor Party even campaigning with SLP presidential candidate John Aiken in 1940. He attended the U.S. Army Marine Officer's Cadet School and the U.S. Marine Officer's School, joined the U.S. Army Transportation Corps in 1944 and was stationed in the Philippines as a ship's navigator until 1945. He married his first wife in 1937 and was divorced in 1945. A year later his first fiction sale, "What is Courage?", was published in Esquire magazine. In 1947 he married his second wife and she agreed to support him for two years to get his writing career off the ground. Reynolds moved to Taos, New Mexico. His career took off, he moved to Mexico then Greece, Yugoslavia, Algeria, Morocco, Spain, Eastern Europe, Finland, India, Japan, and Hong Kong. When he wrote How to Retire without Money, under the pen name Bob Belmont, it caused the National Executive Committee of the Socialist Labor Party to charge Reynolds with "supporting the fraudulent claims of capitalist apologists” and he resigned his membership. Lem didn't like guarding the still while Paw and the boys went feuding. He wanted to get a shot at some Martins too! Yup, he sure did...
