Bongani Bingwa crosses to Adam Gilchrist for a look at the top international stories making headlines. They begin with developments in the UK, where Prince Andrew, younger brother of Charles III, has been released but remains under investigation following his arrest on suspicion of misconduct in public office. Then to Asia, where former South Korean president Yoon Suk Yeol has been sentenced to life imprisonment for leading an insurrection, a dramatic fall from power that has gripped the country. Finally, they unpack fresh tensions involving Donald Trump and the disputed Chagos Islands deal, after the UK reportedly blocked access to the strategic Diego Garcia airbase for potential strikes on Iran, linking the agreement to concerns over Tehran’s nuclear ambitions.

Bongani Bingwa is joined by Khabazela to unpack what’s trending online, starting with those awkward moments when you find yourself completely out of your comfort zone and have no idea how something works, and asking listeners to share their own experiences of figuring things out on the fly. They also dive into a viral “dance off” story that sparks a relatable parenting question: how do you handle it when your children fight with each other, and what’s the best way to manage sibling rivalry at home?
