#GCS | Where the F@k is Czechia? | James’ engagement | Mike Sham, the GNU & Why SA Can't Have Nice Things

The team gets into the growing conversation around weight loss and whether the obsession with getting thin has gone too far. Plus, big personal news as James announces his engagement — congratulations are in order!
The highlight of the show is a sharp, no-holds-barred conversation with political analyst and State of the Nation podcast host Mike Sham, who joins Gareth to unpack why BEE isn't delivering on its promise, the state of the GNU, and what's really holding South Africa back from its potential.
Honest, provocative, and typically GCS — this one's worth your time.
