The Best of Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa

The highlights from each day's breakfast show with Bongani Bingwa.

Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa

Corporates That Care:  Vodacom Foundation

Bongani Bingwa  speaks to Zanele Muholi, the acclaimed South African visual activist who has made history by becoming the first Black queer South African to win the prestigious Hasselblad Award. Widely regarded as one of the world’s most important photography honours, the award recognises Muholi’s powerful body of work documenting and celebrating Black LGBTQIA+ lives in South Africa and beyond. Their portraits challenge prejudice while preserving stories of identity, dignity and resistance. Later this year, Muholi’s work will also feature in a major solo exhibition in Sweden, marking another milestone in a career dedicated to visibility and social change.

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Adam Gilchrist about escalating violence in Lebanon as Israel intensifies operations against Hezbollah in the Bekaa Valley, while Donald Trump warns citizens in Iran to stay home amid rising regional tensions. The conversation also looks at the baffling disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, mother of US TV presenter Savannah Guthrie, who vanished from her home in Tucson, Arizona more than a month ago, and ends with a lighter topic as experts warn that stacking saucepans in cupboards could damage cookware and shorten its lifespan.

World View with Vicki Turner: Israeli forces kill hundreds in Lebanon as Trump warns Iranians to stay at home

Bongani Bingwa is joined by  Khabazela. Today’s discussion dives into two relatable themes that spark debate online and on air. First, listeners are asked to reflect on those surprising discoveries about their parents, the stories you learn later in life that suddenly make you see them in a completely different light. Maybe it was a daring adventure, a hidden talent, or a moment of bravery that left you impressed and a little proud. Then the conversation shifts to the idea of the “guilty purchase” those small indulgences we buy for ourselves that bring joy but sometimes come with a hint of guilt. From comfort food and gadgets to spontaneous treats, listeners share the little things they spend money on just to brighten their day.
