This evening we take a look at the criminal mind and whether its’s a case of nature or
nurture. We’ll also look at the experiences of people who raised or grew up with
people who turned out to be criminals, was it developmental, psychological, did they
come from good families, or did they have troubled upbringing?

After 8 Is After 8: Raised or born a criminal?

Menstruation and reproductive health affect millions
of women and girls in South Africa — yet for many,
they remain daily struggles with far-reaching
consequences. Period poverty leaves girls missing
school and women unable to live with dignity, while
endometriosis, a chronic and often invisible condition,
can go undiagnosed for years, affecting education,
work, and quality of life.
Tonight, we examine these issues through a human
rights lens: how access to menstrual products,
healthcare, and awareness isn’t just a health matter —
it’s a question of equality, dignity, and justice. We’ll
explore what’s being done, where gaps remain, and
what needs to change to ensure that women and girls
can live fully without barriers imposed by their
biology.

AFTER 8 IS AFTER 8: Rights, Health, and Dignity

Water is a fundamental human right in South Africa, guaranteed by our Constitution of South Africa. Yet, as supply pressures mount and restrictions hit some areas, a difficult question arises: are we, the public, doing enough to protect it? Tonight, we explore the tension between rights and
responsibility. While some communities still struggle for clean, reliable water, others are accused of
overuse, waste and illegal connections. How do we balance access with accountability — and can South Africa sustain its water future without a major shift in
behaviour?

There’s growing concern at the pumps, with reports of
fuel shortages emerging in parts of the country — but
government is urging calm.
The Department of Mineral and Petroleum Resources
says fuel supply remains stable in the short term,
despite several petrol stations across provinces
including Gauteng and the Western Cape running out
of certain grades of diesel.
Behind this is a bigger global story. Rising geopolitical
tensions in the Middle East have pushed oil prices
above 100 dollars a barrel, creating uncertainty in
international markets and raising concerns about
supply chains worldwide.
Government says it has secured fuel shipments and
has plans in place to manage potential risks — but at
the same time, it is warning that South Africans could
soon feel the impact through higher fuel prices.
So tonight we ask:
Should South Africans be worried about fuel supply —
or is the real pressure still to come at the pump?
