We have a legacy of violence in our suburbs that needs healing. How can we do this. Two men, one a Khoi Muslim and the other a white pastor, are desperately working to save the youth of Ocean View. Time is running but they see hope where others see hopelessness. Karen chats about Alice and her research into dementia and Alzheimers and how we need to change our understanding and dealing with those around us who are suffering.

Muizenberg hosted a business event called "Gateway to Muizenberg : Business for Change". Another business event, networking opportunity or get together? I thought it was just another one. But, what I did learn is that community collaboration is not exclusive but inclusive. Even if there are other initiatives we need to keep working together to build our community. The guest speaker, Steven Harris from 75 Harrington Street, shared some of his experiences in collaborating with other businesses in the Cape Town CBD. He emphasised collaboration and community building to see problems overcome and the community developed both socially and economically. Initiated by Inez Arendse and hosted by Claudia Braude at the Space@South we experienced a get together of nearly 60 business people who all want to see growth and development in Muizenberg. We chatted to Steven, Inez and Claudia about what they see as an outcome of working together as businesses.…

We celebrate Nelson Mandela's birthday as a community in this episode and what a celebration. We have had so many people involved across the greater Muizenberg area and surrounds. It's heartwarming to see what people are doing to remember this great man and how he has motivated people to give back to their communities. The numbers 67 and 100 have appeared in many forms, giving time in multiples of 67 or 100, making donations to that effect as well and just having a whole day of serving and fun. What an encouragement to see people serving just for the joy of giving to those less fortunate. Having a community catch a vision and then take it to the next level was gratifying to see. Let's hope we can get people to continue this not only one day but every day into the future. We have a quick look at the latest False Bay Echo and chat about the issue of the regulation of solar power in our homes across the city. There are both pros and cons to this new regulation. The other is a good news story from GoodLuck an electronic pop band who are starting a studio initiative in the community of Capricorn. This will be one of a kind in South Africa right here on our doorstep.…

Our first special podcast at the Masque Theatre. We interview some of the actors in the cast of the Producers. This is an amazing "so called" amateur production. There is nothing amateur and I mean nothing amateurish about this show. I was blown away by the commitment of the cast and crew. Chatting to some of the cast before the show was a real experience, catching some of the enthusiasm of unpaid performers. The audience were astounded by the quality of the production and this reflected in their comments at the end of the show. When the lead actor makes his debut as a singer and pulls it off with professionalism and lots of talent you know that amateur drama is alive and very well. Again what a performance. You have to see this show before it ends.…

We kick off this podcast with a heartwarming story about bees and what better place to have a talk about them than at the Hive in Palmer Road, Muizenberg. Bees sting but if they like you then they don't. I was amazed at how caring bees are for each other. A sad follow up story is the one about the brutal "Lakeside Butcher" murder which rocked our community 3 years ago. Yolande, who is a former crime reporter, gives us some insight into the final outcome of the trial. Have you heard of bacon trees? I haven't. There is a bit of a mystery as too who is cutting down the bacon trees (spekbome). Speculation as to why they are being stolen hasn't solved the mystery. We also chat around the legend, David Muller, who is the actor Oom Schalk Lourens OR is it the other way round? You never know. He has so many personas.…

Kai Peterson at ten years old is already a Youtube vlogger and no ordinary 10 year old. Overcoming the challenges resulting from Aspergers Syndrome, the need for two hearing aids and years of speech therapy, he has a passion for Youtube, cars and gaming. Running along after him and desperately trying to keep up is his Mom Chevone who must be the proudest Mom I have met in 21 years of radio. Together they explain what it's like setting up a Youtube channel, domains and social media. Very sharp and quick to learn means that Mom needs to set boundaries in an attempt to hold on to the reigns of this little fireball.

Privilege protects and insulates people from each other and the simple lessons we learn growing up, like pocket money, are not universal. In this episode we hear about the amazing steps being made by a lady towards releasing the potential in young entrepreneurs as they make their own pocket money. When the problem of poison plastics in our vlei becomes so large that the authorities lose control is when private citizens take action. Jenine Versveld took action and financed cleaners to remove micro plastics and other plastic pollution during the low vlei levels. It only scratches the surface but is a beginning that is inspiring others to do the same. We also hear about the Comrades Marathon journey of a woman determined to raise money in order to teach vegetable gardening to vulnerable people. Combining this with recycled plastics she creates a double success by solving one problem with another.…

Ashtan Davids is a 21 year old born and bred Muizenberg surfing resident with a diffability, as he calls it. He has refused the label of disability and prefers his own word of diffability or a different ability. Born with cerebral palsy and the use of only one hand he has single-handedly (pardon the pun) broken through barriers and smashed moulds despite major physical challenges. His idea of normal is reaching his full potential within the parameters of his spectrum of abilities. Some would say that it's all semantics but hearing his story redefines what society calls disability. His sister chats with us about Ashton because of his speech challenges and gives a heartwarming perspective of Muizenberg's mobile maverick.

Muizenberg Beach is a world famous as a blue flag beach and beginner surfers paradise. It's a family beach and draws huge crowds on public holidays and surfers throughout the year. It's an alcohol free zone yet hundreds of people try to smuggle huge quantities of liquor past the law enforcement agencies on these holidays. This creates massive problems of drunkenness, drownings and various forms of alcohol related crime. This past festive season the community of Muizenberg decided enough was enough and joined all the various law enforcement agencies and neighbourhood watches to try put a stop to the problem. We had an amazingly successful season with more than 1000 units of alcohol being confiscated just on New Years day. Despite these successes alcohol was still being purchased after the confiscation from local liquor outlets and making its way on to the beach. Catherine Dillon of the Muizenberg/Lakeside Ratepayers Association was tasked with finding a solution. Joined with Dr John Cartwright on this podcast they share how a very positive solution was found with the support of local business.…
