Listen to the last episode:
John Maytham speaks to Steven Friedman, South African political analyst and columnist, known for his sharp insight into democratic reform, public accountability and policy direction – to unpack the National Dialogue worth R700 million, in the face of a high unemployment rate.
Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists.
A daily highlight is Rapid Fire, just after 5:30pm. CapeTalk fans call in, to stump the presenter with their general knowledge questions. Another firm favourite is the humorous Thursday crossing with award-winning journalist Rebecca Davis, called “Plan B”.
