The Best of Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa

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

Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa

Update on the Tshwane blackout

On Corporates That Care, we explore a programme making a real difference for young South Africans looking to start their own businesses. Metropolitan Collective Shapers is helping youth entrepreneurs move from merely “getting by” to building sustainable businesses that create jobs, strengthen families, and uplift communities. From agriculture in KwaZulu-Natal to food and hospitality in Tshwane, the initiative provides mentorship, training, financial guidance, and market access, offering young people the tools to grow rather than just a handout. Joining the conversation is Lindiwe Gumede, Chief Marketing Officer at Metropolitan, to explain how the programme works and why it matters for the future of youth entrepreneurship in South Africa.

 

702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

Corporates That Care: Empowering South Africa’s Young Entrepreneurs

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/5dcefa8e-00a9-4595-8ce1-a4ab0080f142/clips/8e621d44-925a-4bca-85fa-b3f5007eb280/transcript

Adam Gilchrist looks at the global stories making headlines, beginning with tributes pouring in for civil rights leader Jesse Jackson, who has died at the age of 84. A towering figure in the struggle for equality, Jackson worked closely with Martin Luther King Jr., championed voting rights and economic justice, ran for U.S. president in 1984 and 1988, and was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by Bill Clinton in 2000; he also founded the Rainbow PUSH Coalition, cementing a legacy of empowerment and social justice. The focus then shifts to escalating tensions involving Russia and Ukraine, as diplomatic efforts unfold in Geneva amid reports of Ukrainian strikes on Russia’s Ilsky oil refinery in the Krasnodar region, underscoring mounting logistical strain and pressure on supply lines. Finally, there’s intrigue in the United States over the possible release of long-awaited government files linked to UFO investigations, fuelling speculation about what a presidential disclosure could reveal.

World View with Adam Gilchrist: Russia’s long road to Geneva

Bongani speak to Khabazela unpacking two viral moments doing the rounds online first, the Australian Finance Minister’s awkward “nett versus gross” exchange that has reignited debate about whether leaders should simply admit when they don’t know something, and why saying “I don’t know” can feel politically or personally risky; and second, the light-hearted but relatable Kinder Joy Egg moment that has parents divided over sugar rules at home, sparking a nostalgic look back at the special treats many of us grew up treasuring asking how we balance discipline, indulgence and memory-making with our own children today.
