947 Breakfast Club

So, here’s the scenario: our producer Ryan’s wife was involved in a fender bender during the morning school drop-off. Another driver rear-ended her car. Right there at the scene, he begged her not to call the police and promised to settle it with cash. Sounds simple enough – until Ryan called his panel beater friend who informed him that you only have 24 hours to report the accident to the police otherwise insurance won't pay out – and the other driver can basically refuse to pay. Now here’s the debate: was she right to reject the “under-the-table” cash deal and go by the book, or is she the bad guy for not giving the driver a chance to honour his word? we chat with CEO at Discovery Insure Robert Attwell for some insight Hang out with Anele and The Club on 947 every weekday morning.

The DA has officially named Helen Zille as their 2026 Johannesburg Mayoral candidate. Born in Hillbrow, Zille says she’s coming home to fix a city in crisis — from broken roads and failing water to rubbish piling up. Her campaign is all about restoring services, fighting corruption, and bringing accountability back to Joburg. But critics argue she’s out of touch and question whether a leader from Cape Town can really connect with Johannesburg’s challenges. It’s shaping up to be one of the most heated local races yet — with Zille promising renewal, and rivals warning she’s the wrong fit. Hang out with Anele and The Club on 947 every weekday morning.

We got a voice note from Sam. She says her child’s stepmom wants to attend the school’s mother-and-child dinner instead of her – but Sam’s not having it. She says, “I’m the real mom, I want to go.

Jill sent us a voice note saying she had to move out of her place in Randburg because the pub, 86 on Republic, was just too loud. So, let’s talk — what’s keeping you up in your neighbourhood?

A new study shows that watching #TheBeat raises viewers’ heart rates by an average of 20 beats per minute – proving it’s not just gripping, it’s physically intense.

Denzel Washington has revealed that his name has been widely mispronounced throughout his four-decade career. During a September 3 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, he clarified that the emphasis should be on the first syllable “DEN-zel” rather than what many believe. He explained that this mispronunciation became standard because his mom, Lennis Washington, needed a way to distinguish him from his father (who has the same name). She began saying “Den-zel” to differentiate, and it stuck. Hang out with Anele and The Club on 947 every weekday morning.

You know how in South Africa we love giving people nicknames? Well, we do the same thing with cars. Anele says they call the Ford Everest – “Evereeezy” because, well, it just rolls off the tongue. The Renault Kwid has become the “Kwid-ashian” – flashy name for a car that’s trying to live large. Then there’s the sound effect one: “Vrrrrpa”, because some cars don’t even need a name, just the rev. And the Mercedes ML320? People call it the “Tony Yengeni.

We all know the big ones – 16, 18, 21. Those are the milestone birthdays everyone looks forward to because they come with new freedoms and responsibilities.

Ever gone somewhere for one main thing, but somehow the upsell ends up being the main thing? Cindy put it perfectly: “You know what’s a scam? I went to the hairdresser, and she asked if she could add 10% tip.” You come for a haircut, but suddenly the conversation is about treatments, products, and now even tipping systems. Same thing happens at restaurants, car washes, even tech stores – you walk in for the basic service and leave wondering how you spent double. So, where have you gone for the main thing, only for the upsell to become the real main thing? Hang out with Anele and The Club on 947 every weekday morning.

There are some things you’ve always wanted to have or buy –  but it just was never meant for us... Maybe your body does not work with skinny jeans? Maybe your foot isn’t the right shape to wear sandals? Maybe hats don’t fit... This came to me when the lady making my wedding cake rushed off to take her kids for piercings – one was even trying to convince the other to do it. So, what’s that one thing you’ve always wanted, but when it came down to it, it just didn’t work? Hang out with Anele and The Club on 947 every weekday morning.

Every suburb in Joburg has its own personality. You don’t need a map –  the traffic, the people, even the shopping centres tell you exactly where you are. Imagine if our suburbs had to sell themselves with a slogan. Fourways would be easy: “Fourways in, one way out.” It’s basically the story of sitting in traffic before you even hit Winnie Mandela. Bryanston could lean into its polished reputation – “Where the Wi-Fi is faster than the traffic.” And Sandton? It’s already branded itself as “The driest square mile in Africa.

When it comes to kids and phones, WhatsApp is just the start. Apps like TikTok, Snapchat, Instagram, even gaming platforms like Roblox and Fortnite, all have chat features where strangers can reach them. Parents should watch for hidden accounts, disappearing messages, or sudden secrecy around the phone. The key isn’t spying –  it’s knowing what apps your kids use and keeping the conversation open. We’re talking to Sarah Hoffman, a social media lawyer and co-founder of Klikd with psychologist Pam Tudin Buchalter. They help parents, kids, and educators build safer, smarter, and more positive relationships with technology – no fearmongering, just practical guidance for life online.

We all grew up knowing who the “favourite” was in school with teachers, in your friendship circles, even at home with parents. But does there come a point in life where you just stop caring about being the favourite, or do we actually never outgrow it?
