Summary
Gareth digs into Donald Trump’s view on South Africa — and just how much US intelligence really knows about the country (hint: it’s more than you think). Dr Hanan joins the conversation on the loneliness that often comes with healing, before the team unpacks the real forces behind today’s growing sex recession. Plus, Martin Weist from Tourvest Travel Services breaks down travel trends for 2026, and Robbie Kruse chats to Gareth about golf-fluencing, influence culture, and the shifting media landscape in South Africa.
