Show Notes

You’ve had your birthday trip with your best friends planned for eight months, flights booked, hotels paid for, most of it non-refundable. Then, three weeks before the trip, your partner’s sister announces that her wedding is happening on your birthday. Now your partner and his whole family expect you to cancel the trip and attend the wedding. But do you really have to? Is your partner’s family wedding an obvious priority, or is it unfair to expect you to throw away a trip you planned and paid for months ago? And does it change things because it’s your partner’s sister? Hang out with Anele and The Club on 947 every weekday morning. Popular radio hosts Anele Mdoda, Frankie du Toit, Thembekile Mrototo, and Cindy Poluta take fun to the next level with the biggest guests, hottest conversations, feel-good vibes, and the best music to get you going!

Yesterday on 947 Drive with Thando, Msizi told listeners that he was sick. Now, you’d expect a man who’s under the weather to sound like he’s fighting for his life, right? But Anele heard about it and reckons Msizi didn’t even sound sick! So now we need answers. Some of you have mastered the art of sounding sick when you want to stay home, avoid work or get out of doing something. Others are genuinely sick but still sound perfectly fine on the phone. We want you to call us and give us your best sick voice! Let’s hear those dramatic coughs, blocked noses, weak voices and those Oscar-worthy performances. Can Anele tell the difference between someone who’s genuinely sick and someone who just doesn’t feel like going to work? Hang out with Anele and The Club on 947 every weekday morning.

Thembisa is frustrated after being asked to buy a whole new set of art supplies for her Grade 1 child, despite already spending more than R2,000 on supplies at the beginning of the year. The problem? The original art teacher has resigned, and the new teacher has sent parents a completely new list of materials to purchase. Now parents are left wondering why they have to pay twice for the same subject, and where they are expected to find the extra money. Have you ever been asked to buy new school supplies because a teacher changed, a new list came out, or the school changed its requirements? Is this fair to parents, or should schools be doing more to avoid putting families under unnecessary financial pressure? Hang out with Anele and The Club on 947 every weekday morning.

Stokvels are a big part of how South Africans save, invest and make sure there’s money for December groceries, school fees or that annual getaway. But when you’re putting your hard-earned money into a group with family, friends, neighbours or colleagues, you’re also putting a lot of trust in people. So, what stokvel are you part of, and how does yours work? Is it a grocery stokvel, a savings club, an investment group or one where everyone contributes towards a big December payout? And more importantly, has it ever gone wrong? Maybe the treasurer disappeared with the money, someone stopped contributing but still expected their payout, a member died before their turn came around, or the group fell apart over how the money was spent. Perhaps someone borrowed from the stokvel and never paid it back and now the whole group is paying the price. Have you ever had a stokvel experience that went horribly wrong? How did you handle it, and did the money or the friendships ever recover? Hang out with Anele and The Club on 947 every weekday morning.

There was a time when your parents could travel overseas, come back home, and suddenly the whole family was living differently! Someone went to London and came back with a pair of Reebok Classics, another went to America and suddenly everyone was drinking Pepsi, wearing Tommy Hilfiger or carrying a new school bag that nobody else had. Where did your parents go, and what was THE thing they had to bring back for you? Was it clothes from London, sweets from America, perfumes from Dubai, or those famous plastic bags filled with goodies from overseas? What did your parents bring back that made you feel like the richest kid in the neighbourhood? Hang out with Anele and The Club on 947 every weekday morning.
