Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa

The World View with Adam Gilchrist - An Israeli strike on a school

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Adam Gilchrist about major global stories making headlines. The conversation begins with concerns over global oil prices linked to tensions involving Iran, as governments including members of the Group of Seven consider short-term measures such as releasing strategic reserves to stabilise markets and limit the impact on the global economy. The discussion also looks at disruption in Dresden, Germany, where thousands of residents have been evacuated after the discovery of unexploded bombs dating back to World War II. Finally, attention turns to Vladimir Putin after a less-than-polished video of the Russian president circulated online, prompting renewed speculation about his vulnerability and the political dynamics within the Kremlin.

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Dr Jane Mufamadi, CEO of Freedom Park, about the upcoming Ungasali Annual Storytelling Festival taking place at the South African State Theatre in Tshwane. Now in its 13th year, the festival celebrates the rich tradition of African oral storytelling and its role in preserving culture, history and identity. This year’s theme, “Echoes of Tomorrow: Stories Shaping the Future,” places a strong focus on young people, with more than 1,000 learners from schools across the Tshwane District expected to attend. The event highlights storytelling not only as a form of entertainment, but also as an important part of heritage and a potential pathway into the creative industries for the next generation of storytellers.

Celebrating African storytelling at the Ungasali Annual Storytelling Festival

Bongani Bingwa speaks to  Khabazela, about the latest stories trending online and the conversations they’re sparking. The first story looks at a social media debate about what couples expect when they go out for dinner together. Should a dinner date be about meaningful conversation and engagement, or is it acceptable for partners to sit in silence scrolling through their phones? The discussion explores modern dating etiquette and how technology is shaping the way people connect during shared moments. The second story unpacks the growing popularity of the “Misogi challenge”, a trend encouraging people to set one big, difficult challenge for themselves each year that pushes them far outside their comfort zone. Listeners are invited to share what their personal Misogi might be for the year and whether taking on a daunting challenge can lead to meaningful growth.
