It starts with a chilly morning and ends with a frantic search through the lost-and-found bin. On this episode of Word on The Street, Zweli gets vulnerable about a childhood "crime" we’ve almost all considered: what happens when you lose your school jersey and you're too terrified to tell your parents?
Zweli shares his own personal confession about the pressure of keeping a uniform intact and the moment he was tempted to "borrow" someone else's. We’re joined by Simone and the 947 family to hear the wildest stories of kids losing high-value school items—from blazers to expensive calculators—and the creative (and sometimes desperate) solutions parents have come up with to replace them. It’s a hilarious and heart-warming conversation about teaching responsibility, the "unspoken rules" of the school playground, and the lessons we pass down to the next generation of Jozi learners.
Spend weekday afternoons with Zweli. He keeps you in the loop with everything from music and movies to sport and pop culture.
Hear what the Word on the Street is, test your skills with the high-pressure 6 Out of 6, and get ready to be entertained.
