Free Speech vs Racism, Gayton Mckenzie, Super Gonorrhoea

Loading player...
On this week's episode we’re unpacking the latest mess — Open Chats pod dropping wild, offensive comments about the coloured community and catching smoke from politicians, civil society, and basically the whole of Mzansi. Is Minister Gayton Mckenzie under fire? Lets find out..

Warras and PH get real about how podcasting is now the Wild West — anyone with a mic can say anything, but without media training or a filter, you can end up pushing harmful stereotypes faster than you can say “clip for TikTok.”
We’re talking free speech vs. accountability in a country still carrying the scars of our racial past, and how social media can either start a movement or light the wrong kind of fire. From why public apologies flop, to the awkward landmines of cultural nuance, the gents break it down with their usual mix of sense and banter.

Then — plot twist — we shift into the bedroom talk nobody’s having loud enough: antibiotic-resistant STIs, the disappearing sex-ed in schools, and what responsible sexual freedom even looks like in 2025. Heavy? Yes. Boring? Never.

Of course, it’s still Shady, so you’re getting the laughs, the side stories, the family chaos, and the shout-outs to what’s popping in culture right now. Serious convos, messy truths, and jokes that will have you in trouble at work — all in one.
