  • Love it, Longer Episodes?

    I’ve been listening for the last few weeks every day and I’m afraid I’m gonna devour the entire catalogue and not have anything left to listen to! 😂 I would love some 20 - 30 minute segments! I love listening to Thando, the laughs between hosts and the commentary from the callers! Great job guys! Keep it coming! Listening from Washington DC!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Naked - Wheel Talk. 15 OCT
Q: If you buy a vehicle voetstoots, and you discover a week later that engine, major engine faults or stuff has been cleared, are you covered in any way or are you stuck?
Mushukwa says a buyer who signed an as-is agreement may have little recourse, and suggests considering an external warranty or extended motor plan when buying an older car.
Naked - Wheel Talk. 15 OCT
Q: How does it work when I want to buy directly from the seller of this vehicle?
Mushukwa recommends a knowledgeable inspection, checking the car's VIN and history, agreeing on the sale in writing, verifying the documents, and completing ownership transfer and roadworthy requirements.
5500 Police jobs for SA Youth
Q: What are the demands of this training process and the realities of the actual job?
The job involves preventing and investigating crime, maintaining public order, and upholding the law. Candidates go through psychometric and integrity tests, medical evaluation, and interviews. Training lasts six months for recruits with certain qualifications and nine months for others.
5500 Police jobs for SA Youth
Q: Who qualifies to apply for these 5,500 trainee positions?
Applicants must be South African, aged 18 to under 35 when submitting, have a matric certificate, have no criminal convictions or pending criminal cases, and have no visible tattoos. They must also be physically fit.
Naked - Wheel Talk. 22 OCT
Q: I just wanted to confirm, is the DEKRA report and the VIN check the same thing or not?
Mushuko says they are different: DEKRA typically checks roadworthiness, while an independent VIN check can provide vehicle-history information, including possible mileage tampering.
