Mr. Clement, Vujania from Springs.
VujaniaAUDIENCE
With regards to the DA support or the pledging of the Favaret K, I don't see anything wrong with it, but my issue is that why isn't the same done about the killings in the Cape Flats where the DA governs? Is the lives of those lesser than these women? Is that what the DA is trying to tell us indirectly, or I'm just seeing things that are not there? Thanks.
VujaniaAUDIENCE
Great show.
VujaniaAUDIENCE
Bye.
Clement ManyathelaHOST
Over 100 million rand? That's a lot.
Clement ManyathelaHOST
But they can use those resources to try and see how do we assist.
Clement ManyathelaHOST
And maybe they should use those as well to help in the Cape Flats because people are dying there.
Clement ManyathelaHOST
every single day.
FleurisGUEST
...
FleurisGUEST
he sort of, he, I think it's in the Cape Flats-
RussellHOST
Yeah
FleurisGUEST
... where it's kind of set, and he teaches driving and car stuff to young kids-
Megan WhiteGUEST
There's a lot of horses that come in and go out and come.
Megan WhiteGUEST
So we are regularly getting new horses in on the Cape Flats, which is a huge problem, um, because there's not enough space.
Megan WhiteGUEST
There's not enough work.
Megan WhiteGUEST
There's...
Deon MeyerGUEST
For me, that is the hardest thing is to go find dad jokes that I can put into their mouths and it doesn't seem forced.
Deon MeyerGUEST
But the real humor, I think, comes from Vaughn Cupido, who... grew up in the Cape Flats and his whole personality is he loves laughing, he loves joking, but he also says very funny things, but that has got to happen organically.
Deon MeyerGUEST
If it doesn't happen, then I don't insert it in there, but Vaughan just makes it happen in the way that he says things and views people and things.
Deon MeyerGUEST
He's got a love for fancy words.

Deon MeyerGUEST
But I have to also say that the internationally translators are brilliant.
Deon MeyerGUEST
The collaboration there is not necessarily on the translation itself, but they will send me a lot of emails or will have Zoom calls where they will ask me about what things mean.
Deon MeyerGUEST
They often ask me, is there anything they can read in preparation for the translation? And then there's a constant flow of email where they will ask me questions Is this the right word? What does this mean? We try in the English translation to keep a certain amount of South African and even Afrikaans words or vernacular, especially Cape Flats vernacular.
Deon MeyerGUEST
And to them, that's totally unfamiliar.
Anine HollanderGUEST
[laughs] No, no
Gareth CliffHOST
... you know, smashing cars up like a, like a gang from the Cape Flats.
Anine HollanderGUEST
No. [laughs]
Gareth CliffHOST
I mean, this is, this is...
Anine HollanderGUEST
[laughs] No, no
Gareth CliffHOST
... you know, smashing cars up like a, like a gang from the Cape Flats.
Anine HollanderGUEST
No. [laughs]
Gareth CliffHOST

Amy JephtaGUEST
And as a place that historically my family is from, but hasn't returned to for like decades.
Amy JephtaGUEST
So my great grandfather was raised in the Boer Cup and then was moved to the Cape Flats.
Amy JephtaGUEST
And so I have a sort of spiritual connection to the Boer Cup.
Amy JephtaGUEST
But I also realized that as a young black economically empowered woman, I was part of a wave of gentrification because so many of the properties here were being bought up by women.
7 MINS LATER
Amy JephtaGUEST
But you're also the first in your family to have that.
Amy JephtaGUEST
You come from a poor background.
Amy JephtaGUEST
You were raised on the Cape Flats.
Amy JephtaGUEST
You're a ceiling breaker and you're the first person in your family who can afford to buy their house.
Martina TreurnichtGUEST
Obviously, if we're talking about Cape Town, you know, there's also a lot of microclimatic variations.
Martina TreurnichtGUEST
So you would plant different things, for instance, on the lowlands compared to if you were a little bit higher up or finding yourself in a, you know, not in the Cape Flats, for instance.
Martina TreurnichtGUEST
So consider the local context.
Martina TreurnichtGUEST
think about the space and the watering requirements of the species that you're planting and obviously the long-term maintenance.
Julian AdamsGUEST
who did incredible work in many different spaces and places.
Julian AdamsGUEST
And I've seen God move me from a place of relative poverty into a place of incredible favor and blessing in different ways and taking this little kid from the Cape Flats here in Cape Town, which for most people who are born in that space, it's a challenge.
Julian AdamsGUEST
And he has given me some platforms across the world to minister.
Julian AdamsGUEST
I moved to the UK, moved to the States.

Pete PortalHOST
They were designed to oppress.
Pete PortalHOST
And like you alluded to, drugs were circulated by the apartheid government to just get people addicted.
Pete PortalHOST
I mean, today, Mandrax is still the most widely used drug in Mannenberg and the Cape Flats.
Pete PortalHOST
And it's a tranquilizer with psychotic side effects, right? And so whole communities remain bound.
Clarence FordHOST
So you're kind of familiar.
Clarence FordHOST
I mean, Paul looks much the same as the Cape Flats.
Clarence FordHOST
You're familiar.
Clarence FordHOST
It wasn't about any new stuff that you needed to learn.
