“As a transplanted American living in SA, this show really helps me understand societal and cultural forces here. The episodes are well put together on relevant topics and I always come away having learned something interesting and useful. My only complaint is that it is not more frequent :)”

“Thank you for your podcast on LongCOVID. I suffered badly with the virus last March for just over a week and then the symptoms persisted for a year. I now feel I am over the worst of it but I still get debilitating attacks on my heart, my lungs, by brain and my gut. Occasional chronic fatigue...”Read full review »

“Haji and Rebecca make a great combination on this podcast series. For US listeners Rebecca reminds me of Rachel Maddow - she's sharp, progressive, funny and very listenable. In Series 3 they're doing solutions and it's fascinating. I've just listened to the "Race2Dinner"...”Read full review »

“Just listened to the “What Rwanda got right that South Africa didn’t” episode. Fantastic conversation. I’d love if DSTM could do an episode on further solutions to racism in contemporary SA!”

“The pre-natal care (as important as the message is), was being repeated and a long term solution, which is great, but we need something now...a more mediate solution. I think the telling of SA’s history, objectively by scholars, is a great way to make us realise the damage of the past, and how to...”Read full review »
