    She said that "in life, not just in the industry only, just try and have other streams of income (diversify). There's no way that you can look at one salary." And I took that advice, rest in eternal peace mama Connie Chiume.

    This episode together with the Dr John Kani one proves beyond reasonable doubt that the guys( MacG and Sol) are pure broadcasters as no single profanities were used and even a primary school kid can watch it. I agree with MacG when he said that how the episode goes is dependent on the energy with the guest and it seems like they're able to get the guests energy level up with each episode despite having never met some of the guests who come on the podcast.

    Going through memory lane. I met Ausi Connie in Houston, TX 1994 and I became friends with her son. She was so humble and always being chilled. For me she was a role model, actor, and someone who made us believe we as South Africans can achieve and break borders.. HOUSTON times was amazing because we were trying to figure out who we were as Black South Africans in the city that welcomed us and weekends BBQ were amazing.
