Lieflike Droom – Huldeblyk aan Gé Korsten Met hierdie musiekproduksie bring Jannie Moolman en Riaan Hunter hulde aan die grootste Suid-Afrikaanse kunstenaar van alle tye (soos aangewys deur Rapport lesers), Gé Korsten. Die produksie vertel die storie van die liefling-legende se lewe en die gehoor word bederf met 17 van Gé se grootste treffers en nuwe musikale verwerkings in verskillende style.

Om 'n keuse te maak uit die skatkis van musiek wat Gé Korsten agtergelaat het, is byna 'n onbegonne taak maar die gehoor kan uitsien na onder andere Lieflike Droom, 1000 Soene, Sing Seeman Sing, Hier is 'n Mens en natuurlik sal Lied van die Lewe, Seeman, Liefling en Jerusalem gehoor word.

Two incredible teachers. One unforgettable conversation. On this week's episode of Good Things with Brent Lindeque, we sit down with Mrs Bullock and Riaan du Rand... two South African educators who are not only changing lives in the classroom but also lighting up TikTok with their humour, honesty and heart. You might recognise Mrs Bullock from her viral dance videos that brought joy to millions, and Riaan from his sharp, funny (and sometimes emotional) “Dear Parents” and “Dear Teachers” series (not to mention that iconic “Diddy” moment). But beyond the likes and shares, they're using their platforms to open up meaningful conversations about education, mental health, connection and the power of showing up authentically.... both online and off. And of course, there is dancing! This episode is full of laughs, goosebumps and real moments that will make you fall in love with teachers all over again.

Today we are sitting down with writer and modern day explorer Riaan Manser. His adventurous journey began the day he decided to quit his job and go for a bike ride... around the entire continent of Africa. This was done without backup, and before personal gps and smartphones were in public circulation. Riaan has since become the holder of numerous world records: first to ride 42000km around Africa, first to lap the islands of Madagascar and Iceland in his kayak, and first to row from Morocco to New York in a 18ft row boat. All this to say having survived through landmines, multiple kidnappings, wild ocean storms, starvation and extreme dehydration — Riaan has a story or two to share with us today.Once again a huge thankyou to Riaan for sharing his time with us!Check out his books and adventures at Riaanmanser.comAnd give him a follow on Instagram and Facebook!-----------------Subscribe to this podcast so you're always up to date.

Get ready to hear and laugh about the funniest school moments ever! Hosted by Harry who interviews Riaan and Suyogya about their hilarious school life and memories.

It's the pointiest weekend of all in the URC and the Premiership this weekend, and rugby Youtube star Riaan Louw joined Brett McKay & Harry Jones on The 8/9 Combo Rugby Podcast to ponder style over substance, power over precision.

Beleggen in verzekeraars mag dan saai zijn, voor je rendement is het prima om in je portefeuille te hebben. Dat geldt in ieder geval voor NN Group, dat afgelopen week beleggers bijpraatte over de stand van zaken bij het bedrijf. Schokkend was de sessie niet, maar dat is voor de experts ook niet nodig. "Ze zitten wat agressiever in een aantal ratio's. De aangekondigde aandeleninkoop is met 300 miljoen wel wat onder verwachting", zegt Wilbert Aarts van Bond Capital Partners, "maar de koers is dit jaar al bijna 28 procent opgelopen." Hij heeft NN Group dan ook voor zijn klanten in portefeuille. Riaan Prinsloo van ING is het grotendeels eens met Wilbert. "NN streeft naar een kapitaalgeneratie van 2,2 miljard in 2028. Dat is een mooie groei van 7 à 8 procent." Riaan constateert verder dat NN goedkoper is dan z'n Europese concurrenten, maat wat ik echt mooi vind is het dividendrendement van tegen de 10 procent." De markt is rustig, maar er is nog steeds onzekerheid over de houding van Trump. Markten reageren nu eenmaal volatiel op zijn uitlatingen. Tegelijkertijd staat de fear & greed-index op greed, dus er zit best veel kracht in de markt, mensen willen wel beleggen. Ook het feit dat Europa en de VS weer in gesprek zijn over de handelstarieven doet het sentiment goed. Verder in de podcast o.a. aandacht voor Heineken, Nvidia ('preview') en ING die wellicht een bankvergunning aanvraagt in de VS. Natuurlijk bespreken we de luisteraarsvragen en geven de experts hun tips. Wilbert tipt een Nederlands industrieel concern, Riaan tipt een ETF met de ISIN-code IE00BMFKG444. Geniet van de podcast! Let op: alleen het eerste deel is vrij te beluisteren. Wil je de hele podcast (luisteraarsvragen en tips) horen, word dan Premium lid van BeursTalk. Tot en met 8 juni kost een maandabonnement geen 9,95, maar de eerste drie maanden slechts 7,50 – bijna 25 procent voordeel – en een jaarabonnement is zelfs zo’n 30 procent goedkoper: normaal 99 euro, maar nu betaal je het eerste jaar slechts 70 euro. Voor een maandabonnement is de kortingscode MAAND750, voor een jaarabonnement is dat JAAR70. Abonneren kan hier! VanEck ETF’s (advertorial) Deze week is ook weer het tweewekelijks gesprek te beluisteren met Martijn Rozemuller, ceo van VanEckETF’s, de partner van BeursTalk. Met Martijn behandel ik deze week een crypto-ETN die nog niet zo lang geleden is gelanceerd en we bespreken crypto-ETF die in april volgens Morningstar de best presterende ETF was. De nieuwe ETN is de VanEck Celestia ETN, die belegt in de TIA token. Celestia biedt een netwerk dat het voor ontwikkelaars mogelijk maakt om eigen applicaties of blockchain te maken. Best ingewikkeld, fijn dus dat Martijn even haarfijn uitlegt wat het platform behelst. Daarnaast bespraken we een ETF die breder in de cryptosector belegt, de VanEck Crypto and Blockchain Innovators UCITS ETF. Zoals gezegd, een ETF die het in april heel goed deed, maar Martijn is de eerste om te erkennen, dat zo'n goede performance - zeker bij crypto - erg volatiel is. Martijn vertelt je er alles over, geniet van de podcast!

Rugby YouTube star Riaan Louw joined Brett McKay & Harry Jones on The 8-9 Combo Rugby Podcast to ponder a very simple concept: what would you pinch from any other League in the rugby world to make your own league that much better? Whether it's the URC's graphic, the Top 14 budgets, Super Rugby's impatient referees, or League One running Japanese and English language websites and social media, there are plenty of things to envy from other comps around the world. And there are things to avoid too. English accounting, for one obvious example. Plus: the URC, the Premiership, and the Top 14 are all back this weekend, along with Super Rugby Pacific, League One in Japan and Major League Rugby, and for the first time in podcast history, Harry Jones knocks off early. Games of the Week: • SRP Round 9: Fijian Drua v NSW Waratahs, Lautoka • URC Round 15: Munster v Bulls, Limerick • Premiership Round 14: Bristol v Leicester, Ashton Gate • Top 14 Round 21: Lyon v Montpellier, Lyon • MLR Rd.10: San Diego Legion v Utah Warriors, San Diego #rugby #rugbypodcast #89Combo #SuperRugbyPacific #URC #Premiership #Top14 #JapanRugbyLeagueOne #MajorLeagueRugby #RiaanLouw #RugbyUpdate Find us: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@8-9Combo?sub_confirmation=1 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1BcKhb24YOtwQhKc0S3sDm Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-8-9-combo-rugby-podcast/id1729575866 Social media: #89Combo Twitter: https://twitter.com/89combo BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/89combo.bsky.social Find Brett and Harry on both Twitter and on BlueSky: @BMcSport + @HaribaldiJones Music: "Stalling" by Topher Mohr & Alex Elena (via YouTube Creator Studio) Voiceovers by Chookman + Sean Maloney Learn more about your ad choices.

"Alibaba laat met een omzetgroei van 13 procent uitstekende cijfers zien", vindt Han Dieperink van Aureus Vermogensbeheer. Hij is sowieso enthousiast over de Chinese techsector. "Met Qwen heeft Alibaba een uitstekende chatbot gelanceerd. Eerder verbaasden de Chinezen al met DeepSeek. Allemaal in China zelf ontwikkeld, met eigen technologie". Er zit, met andere woorden, heel wat potentie in de Chinese technologie. Han is ook positief over Chinese aandelen die het vorig jaar -gelijk gewogen- beter hebben gedaan dan de S&P500. Zowel Han als Riaan Prinsloo, van ING, is positief over het sentiment en dan met name over Europa. "De DAX breekt records, de AEX staat dit jaar al bijna 7 procent hoger", constateert Riaan. Ondanks alle risico's die er natuurlijk zijn, zijn beide experts ook voor de langere termijn optimistisch over de aandelenmarkten. Naast de cijfers van Alibaba bespreken we de resultaten van onder andere de drie grote verzekeraars, Philips en Besi. De luisteraarsvragen worden beantwoord en de experts geven hun tips. Voor Riaan is dat een ETF met de ISIN-code IE00B4K48X80, Han tipt een grote dataleverancier. Geniet van de podcast! Let op: alleen het eerste deel is vrij te beluisteren.
