## Resource

Leigh-Ann Mol is back and the team wastes no time diving into the big debates. Why do women love flowers, and why can't men see the value in them? And is being a short king actually an underrated advantage, or is height still the ultimate flex? The crew unpacks both. The team also speak on the latest findings around the Ramaphosa Phala Phala situation. Then, Jonathan Fine and Lourens Reichert join Gareth to break down everything from the Finance Magnates Africa Summit — what it means for the continent, how crypto is reshaping the way we think about money, and why AI is accelerating the change faster than most people are ready for.
