United States (US) President Donald Trump has rolled back tariffs on over a 100 food products, including such staples as coffee, beef, bananas and oranges, in the face of growing anger among American consumers about the high cost of groceries. He signed an executive order on Friday allowing a range of food products to escape his sweeping tariffs. The move comes as his administration faces mounting pressure over rising food prices. The US is an important market for South African citrus fruit and other agricultural products and there were huge concerns when Trump's tariffs came into effect earlier this year. We asked Wandile Sihlobo, Chief Economist at the Agricultural Business Chamber of South Africa, what he makes of the tariff rollback and whether South Africa can derive some benefit. This is what he said

When you hear the term “superproducer,” names like George Martin, Quincy Jones, Max Martin, Pharrell Williams or Missy Elliott might come to mind. But … Robert “Mutt” Lange? Probably not. Yet Lange was by some measures the biggest hitmaker—the producer of more top-selling albums than any of those better-known producers. The South African studio wiz crafted the arena-rock sound of AC/DC and Def Leppard. Then, Lange transformed the Cars, Billy Ocean, Bryan Adams, and Shania Twain into fist-pumping stadium-fillers, too. Join Chris Molanphy as he traces Mutt Lange's legacy of loud—and his uncanny success on the pop charts. He poured sugar on every hit. Podcast production by Kevin Bendis.

South African consumers have been urged to shop responsibly as retailers begin to advertise Black Friday deals, just weeks before the annual Christmas shopping rush. The warning comes as millions of consumers buckle under the pressure of a rising cost of living and high unemployment rates, which have left some shoppers unable to access much credit. Instead of impulsive buying, shoppers have been advised to maximise the savings from Black Friday deals to cover Christmas gifts or even back-to-school essentials. For more on how YOU, the consumer can navigate this period, Bongiwe Zwane spoke to National Consumer Commission Spokesperson, Pheto Ntaba

The discussion also touches on the implications of capital gains tax, the strategies for promoting Bitcoin adoption, and the potential for Bitcoin to serve as a viable alternative to traditional payment systems. Carel emphasizes the urgency of using Bitcoin as money and the need for a shift in mindset among both consumers and regulators.Takeaways:

Mathew Scholtz is a happy guy. And he should be. The South African is coming off an 11-win season in which he earned his second successive MotoAmerica Supersport title, and the end result of those two years of domination have led him back to the MotoAmerica Superbike Championship for the 2026 season. A five-time MotoAmerica Superbike race winner, Scholtz will be aboard a Yamaha YZF-R1 with the team that helped him win the past two Supersport titles - Strack Racing. Scholtz knows that the task is a big one, but he's ready for the challenge as the team gets closer to starting its off-season testing program. We caught up with Scholtz from his home in Georgia to discuss the year that was and the year to come on this week's episode of Off Track With Carruthers And Bice.Support the show

Greetings everyone, and welcome to another episode of Conversations Spoken in the Dark. I'm your host, Hermence Matsotsa, Transformational Leadership and Career Transition Coach and Founder of uBuntuSpeaks.I created this podcast because too often, the most meaningful conversations — the ones about identity, healing, belonging, and how we live, learn, and lead — are whispered in the dark. They go unspoken, overlooked, or carried as silent burdens. Conversations Spoken in the Dark is a space to bring those stories into the light so we can name them, understand them, and begin to heal — both individually and collectively.In this episode, I'm joined by my dear friend and business partner, Elizabeth (Liz) Davila-Sleigh, an ICF-accredited coach, facilitator, and leadership consultant who helps women lead with intention and balance. Together, we're diving into a topic so many high-achieving women know too well — burnout.We explore how culture, gender norms, and workplace expectations shape the way we experience burnout — and what it takes to move from constant doing to intentional achieving. This is a conversation about rediscovering joy, alignment, and purpose — moving from survival mode to living and leading with clarity.✨ So take a breath, and join us in this honest, heart-centered dialogue.

She's one of the most polarising voices in South African politics, and the question that everyone's been whispering is asked: Can she really save Johannesburg? The Burning Platform

I just went on an INCREDIBLE trip to South Africa … so naturally, I have to tell you about it! Earlier this year, a past client invited me to speak at her first retreat in Cape Town, which to me was an enormous opportunity to visit a continent I'd never been to before.  So my husband and I made an adventure of it. We stopped in Istanbul on the way, visited friends, saw the most majestic and dangerous animals on the planet, and witnessed economic divides that I can't stop thinking about. I don't always share about my travels on this podcast, but this excursion was special, with moments that moved me to tears (feeding baby elephants), moments where I feared for my life (getting bitten by a poisonous spider), and moments that inspired huge perspective shifts about the kind of privilege so many of us are born into. It's so cool to see where the world takes you when you go all-out on your purpose – because this trip would not have been possible if it weren't for my entrepreneurial calling! I hope this episode offers a little inspiration to step outside your comfort zone and go on an adventure yourself.    IN THIS EPISODE: The electrifying reality of a South African safari: up-close encounters with the Big Five, charging rhinos, lion sightings, and the spiritual sign that moved me to tears What it's like getting bitten by a mystery African spider while going to the bathroom and facing the most deadly snake in the world on a casual walk Eye-opening lessons from post-apartheid South Africa, and how understanding privilege, opportunity and the birth lottery can change your perspective forever How following your entrepreneurial vision and purpose can unlock experiences you never dreamed of   LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED If you know you're meant to help other people change their relationship with alcohol and achieve deep healing (along with their bigger dreams), be sure to get on the waitlist for the Empowered AF 5X Coach Certification Program – and get 5x certified as a world class alcohol-free empowerment coach, mindset coach, success coach, NLP practitioner, and hypnosis practitioner when applications open.

In this fascinating episode, Elisabeth speaks with Jo Katsaras, a world-renowned Costume Designer whose visionary work has graced some of Hollywood's beloved films and series.Born in Cyprus, Jo moved to South Africa at the age of five — a cultural fusion that would later define her unique artistic style. Growing up in vibrant 1970s Johannesburg, Jo's creative journey began early. She spent her childhood summers in Cyprus, cutting fabric scraps from her aunt's sewing projects to make dresses for her dolls. By the time she was a teenager, she was already cutting patterns around her friends, driven by an instinctive flair for design.After studying at the National School of Arts in Johannesburg, Jo briefly considered architecture but decided instead to explore the world, a decision that ultimately shaped her creative destiny.

Her debut as a Costume Designer came with the South African box office hit There's a Zulu on My Stoep (Yankee Zulu internationally), and from there, her rise was nothing short of meteoric.She went on to design for acclaimed international productions including:
