𝑺𝒐𝒂𝒑 𝒐𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒂 𝒎𝒆𝒆𝒕𝒔 𝒓𝒂𝒅𝒊𝒐 𝒎𝒂𝒈𝒊𝒄! 💍 For the first time in radio history, HOT1027 has created a soap opera starring our very own old skool presenters! Inspired by the 38th anniversary of The Bold & the Beautiful, we set ourselves a wild challenge: create our own soapie in just ONE day. With a hastily written script, office props, extra lights, and DJs turned “budget thespians,” chaos quickly turned into comedy gold. 🌹 The result? The Old & the Beautiful — a cheesy, outrageous, and hilarious one-off parody you don’t want to miss.

This Child Protection Week, we followed Tara Penny into the Teddy Bear Foundation’s mock courtroom — where therapy dogs wear legal outfits and children learn to face court with confidence. Hot Cares has stepped in to support their incredible work. hotcares.co.za/hot-cares-back…

I grew up in a housing commission household with no wallpaper on it, my dad was a labourer & my uncles were gang members. My mother dropped out of school at 13, not surprising I wasn’t a kid full of self worth/confidence. I know I gained a lot of confidence & motivation from seeing Pacifica athletes that looked like my dad and uncles playing professionally. I wanted to be like them so I could buy mum a house with wallpaper on it. Inspiration comes from a lot of things sir. In my humble opinion I believe the picture of Kolisi holding the Web Ellis cup is definitely doing that for some of those youth. ❤️🤲🏾
