Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Sustainable Living: International Day of Zero Waste- Rethinking food and sustainability
Q: Talk to us about why our food waste is edible and what myths lead to discarding still-good food.
Edible foods often get wasted due to distance from aesthetic norms (like misshapen fruits) and misunderstandings around dating labels; campaigns have shown that ugly produce can be perfectly safe and tasty, and practical tips like freezing or using scraps can salvage what would otherwise be wasted.
In the Profile: Mmabatho Montsho, An award-winning writer-director, and visual artist
Q: What motivated you to move into curating the film segment for the Constitutional Hill Human Rights Festival?
She explains it began incidentally through moderating a panel, then evolved into a formal pitch and curatorial role, driven by a desire to use cinema for advocacy, education, and empowerment within the festival context.
In the Profile: Mmabatho Montsho, An award-winning writer-director, and visual artist
Q: Do you have a film you keep returning to, and what draws you to it each time?
She cites favorites like Pretty Woman, Erin Brockovich, and The Devil Wears Prada, highlighting how strong direction, storytelling, and performances keep pulling her back to these works.
Film & TV: SuperSport budget cuts: The end of Afrikaans match commentary?
Q: Tell us about the story.
Thinus Ferreira explains that the new owner cannot immediately lay off staff to cut costs, so the company is reducing expenses by trimming content and services, which now threatens Afrikaans and other language commentary on SuperSport as well as Showmax and related platforms.
Literature Corner: Thandi’s purple bracelet: Teaching kids about epilepsy and empathy
Q: Why place Thandi in a township like Alexandra?
To represent South Africans and show that information about epilepsy can spread from the township to the country, reflecting real community dynamics and lived experiences.
