The Swing – Episode 43

In the midst of the Radiothon rush, Danae and Chris manage to squeeze in some meaty discussions on The Swing.

The Swing checks in with Sisonke Msimang from the Centre for Stories, who walks us through the civil unrest gripping South Africa after the jailing of President Jacob Zuma.

The team then recap some of the show’s highlights from the year, including excerpts from interviews with former Greens Senator Scott Ludlum and the United States Studies Centre’s Jared Mondschein.

We also heard our hosts dissect the big international news stories of the week – and nine full minutes of the Stone Roses’ “Fools Gold” (not included in this podcast).

This episode of the Swing aired on 17 August 2021.
