It doesn’t matter where on the planet I am but I try to tune in - via Apple Music - to John Maytham on Cape Talk.
Aweful
Left leaning political rubbish
I can’t wait for John’s show every day. Hi command of the English language is superb and he makes the dullest topic fascinating. He must never leave!
John is smart, witty, hilariously funny and articulate. He is just the very best voice on the radio. His taste in 60/70’s music is spot on.
He creates such a lekker (Walmart) vibe.
Love his show.
