Across social media and workplace forums, opinions are split. Some older professionals argue that Gen Z, born roughly between 1995 and 2012, lacks resilience, discipline, and respect for hierarchy.

In South Africa, where Gen Z is expected to make up 40% of the workforce by 2030, this generational tension is impossible to ignore. Those who believe employers should adapt say Gen Z brings fresh ideas, values, and flexibility that modern workplaces need. Studies show that 86% of Gen Zs consider purpose key to job satisfaction, while 77% value work-life balance above all else.

Heading into today’s sports breakdown, we’re turning our eyes to the ladies in green and gold, the South Africa Women’s Cricket Team, the Proteas Women, who have been making serious waves at the 2025 ICC Women's Cricket World Cup.

Our Sports Lead Nick Tatham broke down how the Proteas got into this position, what’s next on their journey and why this moment matters not just for women’s cricket, but for sport in South Africa as a whole.

When Stacey and J Sbu opened the lines for their weekly “Confessions” segment, they could hardly have anticipated the storm that would follow. An anonymous confession landed in their inbox, revealing a tale of workplace sabotage that left both hosts, and their listeners, reeling. The confession, read aloud by Stacey, detailed how the anonymous sender manipulated a colleague’s calendar, causing them to miss a crucial meeting. The result? The colleague was left flustered, received a warning, and ultimately went on stress leave, while the confessor secured a long-coveted promotion. Yet, the victory was hollow, as guilt and regret soon set in.
