Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Wander the World: Exploring rock climbing in the Western Cape
Q: What is trad climbing and how does it differ from sport climbing?
Trad climbing is when climbers place and remove their own gear, unlike sport climbing which uses bolts that remain in the rock.
Wander the World: Exploring rock climbing in the Western Cape
Q: How did you decide which climbs to include in the book?
I whittled down thousands of climbs by prioritizing route quality and consulting respected climbers to curate a list that balance accessibility with challenge.
Wander the World: Exploring rock climbing in the Western Cape
Q: What makes climbing compelling beyond the practical act of reaching the top?
The mental challenge and the head game are central; success depends on mindset as much as technique and fitness.
On the Couch: Animal cruelty cases being investigated by the SPCA
Q: What should a person do if they witness animal cruelty?
Document any evidence safely, report to the SPCA via the 24/7 number or WhatsApp, and use available educational resources to discuss compassion with children.
Music - Amy Tjasink
Q: Shadows of the Sun is a song about your bond with your father. Won't you tell us a bit more?
