Second, this is Satan wearing a Christian cloak.@JamesTalarico: For 50 years, the religious right convinced our fellow Christians that the most important issues were abortion and gay marriage—two issues that aren't mentioned in the Bible. Pivoting to the God ThingBeware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Notably, despite Boshoff saying he'd get rid of anyone who speaks negatively against his wife, he actually divorced her a few years later, in secret, and never told the church about it until it was exposed more than a year later.South African megachurch Pastor At Boshoff divorces wife after more than 30 years of marriage
In 2022, Avetis Antaplyan was absolutely flying...HIRECLOUT, his global recruiting firm with 30 employees across the US, Colombia, Armenia, and India was breaking record after record.Two-time Inc. 5000 Fastest Growing Company, his best year ever and he felt everything was working.Then when the market hit hard in 2023-2024 and every other founder was doing layoffs, Avetis refused to cut people.Instead, he took most of his profits out of the business to keep his team employed through the downturn.He genuinely believed loyalty would be returned. That when things turned around, they'd kill it together.It didn't work that way."Those were the first people who resigned when we put some pressure on," he admits. "All it did was burn my profit."For two and a half years, he broke even. The money was gone. The people left anyway. But that failure taught him something most founders never learn: protecting average people doesn't build loyalty. It destroys capital.Now he's building the opposite.His new obsession: take exceptional people (circa $500-600k billers) and use AI, systems, and tools to turn them into $1m producers.He's recently hired a principal on executive search, a director of business development, and is planning a head of consulting…. Serious hires for a new phase of growth.In this episode, we cover:- Why he chose loyalty over layoffs (and what it cost)- Two and a half years of breaking even- The moment he realised protecting people was destroying capital - How he rebuilt with "bar raisers or nothing"- Building AI to turn $600k billers into million-dollar producers- Why he's never burnt out (and why most founders do)This story highlights a founder who made a decision based on loyalty, watched it blow up in his face, and chose to learn instead of blame the market.If you've ever wondered what happens when you prioritise people over profit, this episode may change how you think about loyalty. __________________________________________Episode Sponsor: Remote RecruitmentHiring shouldn't be slow, stressful, or expensive.

Guest: Elizabeth Kennedy TrudeauBradford M. Freeman Managing Director for Global Policy at the George W. Bush Presidential Centre South Africa has formally accepted the credentials of Leo Brent Bozell III as the 28th U.S. ambassador to Pretoria, even as Washington has yet to receive new South African diplomatic appointments following the expulsion of Ibrahim Rasool. Lester Kiewit spoke to former U.S. embassy spokesperson to South Africa, Elizabeth Kennedy Trudeau, now with the George W. Bush Institute, who described the moment not as a rupture, but as part of the natural ebb and flow of diplomacy between two strategic partners.

Guest: Roland Postma, Managing Director of Young Urbanists Roland Postma, Managing Director of Young Urbanists, speaks to Lester Kiewit about how parking rules are quietly driving up development costs and making housing less affordable in South African cities.

Today is Budget Speech day, which basically decides how much more expensive life could get… or hopefully, how much relief is coming. From taxes and fuel to grants and government spending, this is the moment that shapes what we all pay and what we get back. Taxes & Fuel: “Were there any major changes to personal income tax or VAT, and what does that mean for everyday South Africans?” Social Grants: “Did the government announce any increases to social grants, and who will benefit the most?” Government Spending Priorities: “Which sectors or projects is the government focusing on this year, and are there any big surprises?” Economic Relief: “Were there measures to ease the cost of living, especially for things like fuel, electricity, or basic goods?” Impact on Households: “Looking at the overall picture, do you think the budget offers relief for ordinary South Africans, or will it mostly benefit businesses and investors?”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This comes after a University of the Free State study found harmful endocrine-disrupting chemicals, including parabens, phthalates, and bisphenols, in some pads and panty liners. The study found these endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are linked to health complications such as hormonal imbalance, infertility, endometriosis, and cancer, affecting millions of South African women and girls monthly. Sakina Kamwendo spoke to the Divisional Head of Complaints and Investigations at the National Consumer Commission, Prudence Moilwa.

Stephen Grootes speaks to Ayanda Zulu, policy officer at the Free Market Foundation, about National Treasury’s proposal to introduce an additional 20% tax on online gambling. The FMF argues the move could backfire by pushing consumers toward unregulated offshore platforms, which already account for a significant share of online betting activity in South Africa. Industry data suggests millions of South Africans are interacting with illegal operators, raising questions about enforcement capacity and whether the proposed tax can realistically be applied to offshore entities.

Today's BizNews Daybreak, hosted by Alec Hogg, covers sweeping international developments, market-rattling AI advancements, and crucial South African economic updates. Here is a breakdown of the key stories: Global Tariffs & Geopolitics: The White House is preparing a formal directive to increase the global tariff rate to 15%. Additionally, tensions between the US and Iran remain high, with the primary risk being the potential blockage of oil delivery from the Gulf Coast, which could push oil prices to $100. AI Disruptions & Market Moves: IBM shares tumbled 13% after Anthropic announced that its Claude code tool can modernize the Cobalt software language. This AI disruption led author Nassim Taleb to warn of impending software bankruptcies. On the M&A front, Paramount raised its all-cash bid to buy Warner Bros Discovery to $30 a share. Gold & Crypto: Gold surged 3% overnight to reach $5,250 an ounce. In contrast, Bitcoin lost 4%, dropping to $63,500. UK Political Scandal: UK police arrested Peter Mandelson, the former British ambassador to the US, on suspicion of misconduct in public office. This arrest follows the release of emails allegedly showing him forwarding government information to Jeffrey Epstein. South Africa's Budget Windfall: Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana will present the national budget with an estimated R50 billion windfall in additional revenue, driven by high gold and platinum commodity prices. Economist Dawie Roodt advises using these funds to cut corporate taxes and adjust personal income tax brackets, warning heavily against using the surplus to increase government spending. Local Parliamentary Inquiries: The ad hoc committee investigating police and political capture has drawn heavy criticism. Ian Cameron expressed disappointment, stating the proceedings resembled a "soap opera" driven by TikTok likes instead of serious questioning.

Send a textTwo country boys hit Atlanta for the Dallas Safari Club Expo and come home with a year's worth of stories, hard-won tips, and new friends from across the hunting world. We start with a chaotic travel day—dead battery on the plane, a tarmac standoff, and a near-miss at a crosswalk—then step into the Georgia World Congress Center and realize just how big DSC really is. With more than 1,300 booths and outfitters from over 43 countries, it's a living map of global hunting, conservation, and gear innovation.We meet TV icons Ralph and Vicki from Archer's Choice, shake hands with Mr. Whitetail himself, Larry Weishuhn, and connect with DSC leadership on why the show's funding model matters: grants for habitat, education, and anti-poaching. A South African outfitter lays out Botswana's elephant math—land that can carry around 75,000 elephants now holds more than 150,000—making a clear case for science-based management. On the North American front, an Alaskan captain opens our eyes to a sleeper DIY blacktail hunt in the panhandle with accessible tags and high densities.Seminars deliver real field value. Dan Adler's glassing masterclass shows how scanning right to left slows your brain and helps you catch the small, wrong-shaped details that give animals away. We get a primer on long-range thinking, then pivot to Craig Boddington's Cape buffalo insights—angles, bullets, and the look that says you “owe it money.” The floor itself is a wonder: jaw-dropping taxidermy, museum-quality replicas for restricted imports, premium optics, Kenetrek boots, Holland & Holland and Rigby, and a $238,000 double in .700 Nitro that we admired more than we dared handle. Add Ox Ranch's tanks and machine guns, plus the history and scale of King Ranch, and the spectrum from tradition to adrenaline comes into focus.The curveball? A late-night wander through a locked-down film set where Tulsa King shoots under cranes and fog. We watch the same scene run a dozen times, then a blacked-out van glides by with the cabin light on and Sylvester Stallone five feet away—scrolling, smoking, and still larger than life. We leave with future podcast guests booked, better glassing habits, and new perspective on how conservation, community, and adventure intersect.If you enjoyed this story-packed ride, follow the show, share it with a friend, and drop a quick rating or review—your support helps us bring more experts and epic hunts to your feed.Check us out on Facebook Hunts On Outfitting, or myself Ken Marr.

Correspondent Cecilia Vega reports from McDowell County, W.Va. – once the nation's largest coal producer, and now one of the poorest places in the country, where the food stamp program started and the opioid crisis took hold. When President Trump said he would “permanently pause migration from all third world countries” to the U.S., there was one exception: the resettlement of white South African refugees, mostly Afrikaners. The president has said white farmers in the country are victims of genocide, a claim the government of South Africa disputes. Artificial intelligence is being used to make art that is being embraced by many of the world's most prestigious museums and auction houses, raising an age-old question: what counts as art?

Stephen Grootes speaks to Brad Latilla-Campbell, Country Manager at Crimson Education about the growing number of South African students gaining admission to top US universities and the role Crimson Education is playing in that pipeline. As competition for places at Ivy League institutions intensifies globally, more high-performing local graduates are seeking structured guidance on applications, scholarships and positioning themselves for elite programmes. This platform works with ambitious students aiming for highly selective universities in the United States, helping them navigate admissions strategies, standardised testing, and funding pathways.

SIU Acting Head Leonard Lekgetho reveals major fraud at Home Affairs. Lekgetho says corrupt officials collude with foreign nationals, illegally accessing offices to swap photos and fraudulently use innocent South Africans’ fingerprints. In response, the SIU has proposed systemic recommendations to bolster security. Lekgetho acknowledged that the department is already implementing biometric controls on passport photographs. But has stressed the urgent need to strengthen physical access controls at Home Affairs facilities, ensuring every person entering can be positively identified to prevent internal collusion. The Special Investigating Unit was today briefing the media, providing an update on its ongoing investigation into allegations of serious maladministration within the Home Affairs Department. The investigation focused on document fraud, visa and work-permit manipulation, and facilitation networks enabling unauthorized entry into South Africa.

Inspired Radio with Helen Taylor Guest, Judge Adriaan Fondse Judge Adriaan Fondse exposes corruption, theft, fraud, and long-standing evil conduct carried out by a network he refers to as the Eminent Persons Group. With clarity and conviction shares why it is time for lawful revelation, accountability, and restoring what was taken from the people. Below is a link to a series of Documents Adriaan Fondse mentions throughout the podcast: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ZEXpeN8eSltyQ8RxLdP-hGilloL-WkwG?usp=share_link In this episode of Inspired Radio, host Helen Taylor interviews Judge Adriaan "Fanie" Rudolf Fondse, a South African investigator and former Special Forces member. The dialogue explores Fondse's findings regarding systemic financial corruption, the manipulation of historical narratives through "divide and conquer" tactics, and the existence of massive humanitarian trusts intended to provide global abundance. The Illusion of Banking and Currency Creation Adriaan Fondse describes the global banking system as a "well-disguised scam" and "theft," asserting that banks do not move currency of value when issuing loans but instead create it "out of thin air" through ledger entries. He argues that this system, designed to choke the flow of money and fund both sides of manufactured wars, allows a "generational criminal gang" to accumulate the world's wealth. According to Fondse, this mechanism has been forced upon humanity since the late 1700s to maintain systemic control. Historical Manipulation and the Business of Apartheid The discussion reveals a controversial reinterpretation of South African history, where Fondse claims Apartheid was a "business construct" rather than a purely ideological conflict. He details how the British Crown, through MI6, allegedly established both the Brotherhood and the ANC to create an artificial racial war, facilitating a "divide and conquer" strategy. He suggests similar tactics are used globally, including in Australia, to keep populations distracted while resources and land are expropriated by the "Deep State" or "Eminent Persons Group." The Humanitarian Trusts and the BIS A central theme of the interview is the recovery of the Alpha Omega and Avila Trusts, which Fondse claims hold vast gold reserves meant for the benefit of all humanity. He asserts that these assets have been illegally managed and exploited by the Rothschilds and the Vatican. He identifies the Bank of International Settlements (BIS) as the "capstone" of this corruption, operating above national laws to hide accounting evidence. Fondse expresses his intention to use legal and audit evidence to regain control of these assets for public benefit. A Path Toward Global Abundance Fondse concludes by urging individuals to move away from "scarcity mindsets" and "guru-following." He defines "true law" as a promise of care and abundance, arguing that if humans educate themselves and stand in unity, the current "evil" systems will lose their power. He emphasizes that transparency is essential, as secrecy is the foundation of all systemic evil, and envisions a future where collective care replaces manufactured conflict. The interview serves as a call to action for global transparency and individual sovereignty. By challenging the foundations of modern banking, media, and law, Fondse and Taylor suggest that the path to a "new world" lies in uncovering suppressed truths and reclaiming the wealth intended for all humanity.

The battles are coming thick and fast because this is the end of the seventh decade of the 19th Century - the British have just been defeated at the Battle of Hlobane mountain on the 28th March. There's been so much skop skiet and Donner it's time to reflect on matters further south west Before we buzz back to Zululand next episode. n the Transvaal, resistance to British rule was slowly setting, like mortar hardening between stones, the scattered grievances of the Boers beginning to cohere into something firmer, more deliberate. Far to the west, Kimberley glittered with a different intensity - fortunes were rising from the dust, deals were struck in the heat and noise, and the great hole in the earth swallowed men and money alike. Yet beneath the clangour of picks and the shimmer of diamonds, another current was moving. For even as the town prospered, a sequence of personal tragedies was about to cast a longer shadow over Kimberley shaping not only its mood but the hardening temper of one of its most ambitious young men. Cecil John Rhodes would endure a series of personal blows in the years ahead. These losses did not soften him. If anything, they seemed to harden an already melancholic temperament. One by one, the setbacks accumulated, and the young speculator who often appeared distant in manner would, in time, come to embody the ruthless vanity and moral ambiguity that marked the diamond fields and the empire they fed. The string of tragedies began with his brother Herbert. It was he who had come to South Africa first and started the Cotton farm at Richmond near Pietermaritzburg. And It was he who had impulsively upped and off to Kimberley to look for diamonds. Once these had been unearthed and he'd convinced young Cecil to join him — he upped and off once more to the eastern Transvaal, where gold had been discovered. After a while he tired of that life and began gun running from Delagoa Bay to amaPedi people, then roved about into northern Mozambique and what is Malawi today. He hunted the next gold find everywhere he went, a mad Victorian searching for his personal treasure. Cecil John Rhodes watched and took his own notes. He was already thirsting for power, and now he realised there were two routes. From Barney Barnato he learned the value of politics, and from JB Robinson he came to understand the uses of Journalism. Rhodes wanted something much bigger, and that was a seat in the Cape Parliament. He ran for representative of a rural territory, Barklay West which was a mistake. When he appeared at a meeting one of the local boers told him off “In the first place, you are too young, in the second, you look so damnably like an Englishman…” Rhodes, unlike certain modern politicians, listened. First stage of campaign complete, time for second stage. And here it may surprise many listeners, but he turned to black South Africans because at this time in our history, blacks could vote in the Cape. All they had to do was show they had enough cash, the Cape qualified franchise. Every voter had to show either 25 pounds of land or more in value or prove they received at least 50 pounds a year in income. After disbursing black workers with an unknown sum of money, 250 turned up to vote for Rhodes on election day and largely because of this support, he won. It is truly amazing that Cecil John Rhodes won his seat in the Cape Parliament because of black voters, and would go on to hold that seat in periods of triumph, disgrace and depression, until the day he died.
This project is inspired by a 1958 field recording of a Bamum girl singing a religious song in Fumban, West Region, Cameroon, recorded by Lois Mitchson on a ¾-inch reel tape. The archival voice forms the emotional and conceptual core of the project. The recording of the young girl singing praises about the Sultan Njoya who was part of the monarchy which dates back to the fourteenth century, is sampled and fused with layered percussion, reflecting the rhythmic richness of traditional African music, where percussion functions as both structure and communal expression. The title “Mwana Wevhu”, meaning “Child of the Soil” in Shona, draws from my Zimbabwean heritage and speaks to ancestry, land, and spirituality. Musically rooted in 3-step house, a South African subgenre of electronic music, the project blends Central African archival sound and culture, Southern African rhythm, and Zimbabwean language and identity. This intentional cross-regional fusion symbolises the idea that Africa is one, diverse in culture yet deeply interconnected. “Mwana Wevhu” bridges past and present, tradition and innovation, using music as a unifying force.Bamum girl singing religious song reimagined by NdiniBeatz.———Part of the project A Century of Sounds, reimagining 100 sounds covering 100 years from the collections of the Pitt Rivers Museum at the University of Oxford.

The first two days of the Super 8s are in the books - and aside from the frustrating rain-affected NR between Pakistan and New Zealand there has been some epic results. After an historic T20 WC winning streak India will be primed for a comeback after falling to South Africa to throw Group 1 wide open. The middle order for South Africa were outstanding, and while both teams lost wickets in the Powerplay, it was the South Africans that built better momentum through the middle. Just how important will that 20-odd runs in the final over from Stubbs be in the net-run-rate stakes? India versus the West Indies now shapes as a must-win quarter-final for India. They have the firepower but will need to build back their momentum. Speaking of momentum, the loss to Zimbabwe in group play clearly affected Sri Lanka in their heavy loss overnight to England. Despite injuries their bowlers stood tall to restrict England to a gettable total. England's spinners had other ideas though and the spin trio of Jacks, Dawson, and Rashid powered England to a convincing win. Sri Lanka are pushing now to make the knockouts and will need a bounce back performance to keep their tournament hopes alive.

Manpower MD Lyndy Van Den Barselaar joins Africa Melane to explain why South Africans are staying in jobs, despite being unsatisfied. Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists.
