The Gareth Cliff Show

02.07.19 Pt 1 – Gareth’s got a new TV obsession with planets and outer space, which reminds the team of just how insignificant humankind is sometimes. Get the news of the day in the “Five Things You Need To Know” to get informed and geared up for the day. And the closest you’ll get to sports is Siya’s positive story of 15-year-old tennis player Cori Gauff who’s just beat Venus Williams at Wimbledon.

01.07.19 Pt 2 – Siya has a delightful breakdown of all the lovely things South African ministers receive, which makes Ben hugely angry. His rant then overlaps into Leigh-Ann’s story about Zimbabwe no longer issuing passports, but thankfully “marrots” lighten the mood a bit. The impossible infinity pool on a London skyscraper, then Sharmla Chetty drops by to talk about the Davos of Human Capital.

28.06.19 Pt 2 – A-ha is coming to South Africa, so Gareth runs through all their hits so you know all about them. Listener Unathi joins the team for some Friday fun, a big week for NASA with fun planets and gold in the atmosphere, and Angela Merkel is short circuiting. Kids being allowed to be kids, Siya says something very controversial, a manslaughter case that makes no sense, then George Mienie wraps up the week with the latest from the world of cars.

28.06.19 Pt 1 – Gareth tries to explain how Siya ‘arrives’ at the studio in the morning, before getting into an event he has to speak at. The team wakes Siv Ngesi up to talk about how amazing the Atlanta strip club scene is. Couples crossing the line with sharing of things, and some flashbacks of Leigh-Ann’s dating career. The latest in news and sport, plus Siya’s positivity feature for the day.

27.06.19 Pt 1 – Gareth and Siya got to shmooze with the British High Commissioner Nigel Casey, just as it was confirmed that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will be visiting South Africa later this year. But, Siya also broke a very important rule: Going to another barber! Catch up on some news, positivity and getting to the truth behind what men and women say.

26.06.19 Pt 2 – We all use sweet, little lies all the time. Lies like, “I’m almost there!” Gareth and the team chat about these in our Let’s Be Honest feature, before trying to understand more about Kanye West’s Sunday Service again. They also discuss some of the weed laws, robot cops in the US and President Trump’s “type”. Then, Mathe Okaba, Chief Executive Officer of the Association for Communication and Advertising announces the three-year academic bursaries they’re giving away.

26.06.19 Pt 1 – Following Gord’s recent holiday, the team tries to figure out the qualities of the ultimate travel buddy. But since it’s his triumphant return, Gord also talks about how even he felt conservative while experiencing the Red Light District. Get into the news, an inspiring story, and so much more.

25.06.19 Pt 2 – Our Let’s Be Honest feature looks at the truth behind some social niceties. It’s an hour with tons of crazy in the stories: A woman who was left asleep on a plane, the current state of Zimbabwe, Kanye West’s Sunday service and OJ Simpson’s bizarre Twitter account.
